[edit] April Fools' Joke

Is it worth mentioning anything about the annual April Fools' Joke that appears, e.g.: last years about selling the site? Essexmutant 15:34, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

I've recently added their April Fools' Joke for 2004 and 2005 on April 1, 2004 and April 1, 2005. --Oakster 11:54, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Music?

Does anybody know what the songs are called that they use on the podcast? ---SilentRAGE! 01:30, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

  • RD's Weekly Trip to the Grocery is introduced by a clip from "The Streak" by Ray Stevens.
What's the themesong? ---SilentRAGE! 22:31, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
The theme song is "Play with Me" by Extreme. It will be featured as a song on Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s.COOLRUNNER87 15:00, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WrestleCrap Radio: Fax-trolla

RD specified on this past Friday's WCR that it's spelled "fax-trolla".

[edit] Notability

Please remind me how this site is notable and meets WP:WEB.

Also, it's incoming links from mainspace (excluding redirects but including links to any incoming redirects) number 5: two of which are trivial entries about April Fools gags (from April 1, 2004 and April 1, 2005) and one of which is the site founder. So, we're down to 2 incoming links of any value whatsoever.

I very much question the notability of this site, and suggest a merger or deletion. --kingboyk (talk) 14:36, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

It's already been discussed several times and is quite notable. Just because it's not notable to you, doesn't mean that thousands of other people aren't aware of the site. DX927 (talk) 23:17, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm not particularly concerned about this site's notability - it certainly seems to be a highly well-known website among wrestling fans. However, the article desperately needs reliable sources to show its notability. Currently, it has one source that's independent of the website and its writers, and that's an interview with another website of questionable reliability and notability itself. I would like to see this article remain on Wikipedia, but better sources need to be found. Terraxos (talk) 23:42, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
Well we sorta can't add any sources to anything at the moment. DX927 (talk) 03:30, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gooker 2007

Tried to insert the winner of the 2007 Gooker award, but this appears to be a high-level block! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Spitney Beers (talk • contribs) 14:13, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Which would have been quite amazing for you to do since the VOTING hasn't even started. So there's no way for there to even be a winner yet. DX927 (talk) 18:15, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

The award may not yet have been awarded, but the voting has indeed started. It would appear you are somewhat behind. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.245.129.53 (talk) 16:41, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

However, voting hadn't started at the time the comment was made (16-17 December) 144.32.126.14 (talk) 15:35, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

The winner has been announced - it's Hornswoggle as Vince McMahon's son. Steveweiser (talk) 13:39, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

However, it seems that the semi-lock is keeping even me (who has been on Wiki for a while now) from being able to edit the WrestleCrap page. COOLRUNNER87 (talk) 07:54, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
The page is actually full protected. --ÐeadΣyeДrrow (Talk | Contribs) 23:14, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Update

{{editprotected}}

Before I add the request edit template is everyone fine with a line like:

2007: Hornswoggle revealed as Vince McMahon's son.

--ÐeadΣyeДrrow (Talk | Contribs) 23:34, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

No problem, but why in the heck is this page so protected that I, a member of almost 3 years, cant' edit it? Why this much protection?--Bedford 06:41, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Check the log (click "History"), it says why. TJ Spyke 07:07, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
