:Bonez sounds like a much more respectable name to me at least. My curiosity brought me to IRC to ask a few people. All three users gave permission to log, although [[User:PeterSymonds]] was the only one who gave permission for his name published.

== [[BBC Sports Personality of the Year Coach Award]] ==

Thanks for your response to my [[Wikipedia talk:Featured list candidates#10 item list|FLC query]]. As suggested, I have added a column and expanded the content a bit. I have listed this for [[Wikipedia:Peer review/BBC Sports Personality of the Year Coach Award/archive1|peer review]] and would welcome any further suggestions you may have.

::Could you have a final look, and see if IYO it has been expanded enough to be a FL. If you still think it is too short just say, as I realise that not everything can have a shiny gold star.

== Turning Point Thoughts? ==

Hey SRX, just wanted to ask your opinion on this because you're experienced with featured lists.  I'm working on [[TNA Turning Point]] and once I get all the uncreated content out of there, thinking about a featured list.  I'm a little worried about it being too short, however.  Would you mind taking a look at it and letting me know?  If it's not too short, can you look at the list section (the uncreated events will be moved) and let me know how it looks?  Thanks.  Cheers, '''''[[User:DoomsDay349|<span style="color:darkblue;">Dooms</span>]][[User talk:DoomsDay349|<span style="color:lightblue;">Day</span>]]''''' 00:59, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
:I thought as much.  Will had an idea to convert it to article form and bring it to GA through that method, do you think that's a viable idea?  I believe he's done the same thing with Bound for Glory.  Cheers, '''''[[User:DoomsDay349|<span style="color:darkblue;">Dooms</span>]][[User talk:DoomsDay349|<span style="color:lightblue;">Day</span>]]''''' 01:15, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
::Yeah.  With a minimum of ten items needed, though, it'll be a good 5 years before we hit that point.  Assuming TNA survives that long, at any rate.  I'll probably convert it into article form eventually then.

::::Nice. Man, is 2007 the only year in which all the PPV's are completed [GAs]? I'm using the example from the lead for JD, as you requested, but I'm having a hard time with it. This is what I get so far:
<blockquote>
The show's seven matches showcased prominent WWE wrestlers, who acted out the franchise's stories in and out of the ring. The [[main event]] featured Raw wrestlers in a [[Professional wrestling match types#Cages|Steel Cage]], a ring surrounded by four walls of mesh metal. In this match, [[WWE Championship|WWE Champion]] [[Triple H]] defeated [[Randy Orton]] to retain his title. In SmackDown's main match, [[The Undertaker]] defeated [[Adam Copeland|Edge]] by [[Professional wrestling#Countout|countout]], but did not win the vacant [[World Heavyweight Championship (WWE)|World Heavyweight Championship]] because in WWE, a championship cannot change hands via [[Professional wrestling#Countout|count-out]] or disqualification, as a result, the title became vacant. While in ECW's prime match, [[WWE Tag Team Championship|WWE Tag Team Champions]] [[John Morrison and The Miz]] defeated [[Glen Jacobs|Kane]] and [[CM Punk]] to retain the titles. Featured matches on the [[undercard]] included [[Shawn Michaels]] versus [[Chris Jericho]] and [[John Cena]] versus [[John Layfield|John "Bradshaw" Layfield]] (JBL).

== RE [[List of ECW Television Champions]] ==

Hi SRX, I was fixing the disambiguation links in recently promoted Featured Lists until I happened upon your article. I found one link that I could simply not figure out what article to disambiguate to. Could you fix it please? The link has a <font color=blue><small><sup>[disambiguation needed]</sup></small></font> tag after it. [[User:Dabomb87|Dabomb87]] ([[User talk:Dabomb87|talk]]) 01:54, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

== WikiCup notice ==

The 2009 [[User:Garden/WikiCup|WikiCup]] will begin on January 1, 2009. The first round will run through March 31, 2009. For more information on this tournament, read the "[[User:Garden/WikiCup#About|about]]" section on the main WikiCup page.

This year, we have a different system in calculating points. At [[User:Garden/WikiCup/Submissions]], you will find information about submitting your article (and other) work to earn points. Each contestant will have their own individual [[WP:SUBPAGE|subpage]] for submitting completed work to us.

This year, [[User:ST47]] will also be running one of his [[WP:BOT|bot]]s to calculate mainspace edits and read your submission subpages to calculate the point values you receive based on [[User:Garden/WikiCup#Scoring|our scoring chart]].

Questions or comment? Ask at the [[User talk:Garden/WikiCup|talk page]] or go directly to [[User talk:Garden|Garden]] or [[User talk:IMatthew|IMatthew]]'s talk page.

== Hey ==

It's been good. Been editing a lot more on Wikipedia than just reggaeton, but still contributing. Yes it is a diappointment how the project went down. I never knew why tho lol. I don't think I've seen your edits on any reggaeton-related article in a while, or maybe I haven't noticed?

:Well I've been one of three editors (the others being [[User:Vercetticarl|Vercetticarl]] and [[User:ify4|ify4]]) who are still active in the project. I'm the only one who's still contributing to albums and songs relating to reggaeton the most (see [[Special:Contributions/El cangri386|my contributions]]). Speaking of the [[Jowell & Randy]] article, I'm updating the page right now since it's been a big mess for a while. That's the thing I'm avoiding the most on here, is having unorganized information on reggaeton articles.

Hi SRX, thanks for adding FLCs to the backlog, but only FLCs that have been running for ''more than ten days'' should be on the list.

Seeing that you are also in the wikicup you are probably thinking of a way to get points. If you feel up to it, we can work together and get [[List of NWA World Heavyweight Champions]] and [[List of NWA World Tag Team Champions]] to FL? Seeing you are more experienced with FLC than I am, also the fact that I'll go insane trying to find enough sources for the lists, I thought to ask you if you wanted to work together?--[[User:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:red;">'''Will'''</span>]][[User talk:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:blue;">'''C'''</span>]] 03:09, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

:Right now those are the only others one I haven't already started on. There is [[List of TNA X Division Champions]] which will not be hard as well as List of World Tag Team Champions in TNA and List of World Heavyweight Champions in TNA. Soon There will be over ten tag teams that have held the TNA World Tag Team Championship and it will be eligible. Consequences Creed and Jay Lethal just won the belt. I assume that they'll lose it to The Motor City Machineguns because of the angle they are in right now. That will make nine when The Machineguns win it. There is also the addition of a reign for Kaz and Eric Young who were striped of the belt though TNA does not say they were champions in the first place. Probably by the end of January it will be long enough. I see a few title changes real soon with it. I've started on the first three I mentioned already.--[[User:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:red;">'''Will'''</span>]][[User talk:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:blue;">'''C'''</span>]] 03:22, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

::I can source all the NWA Tag Champions in TNA stuff and get that part of the table fixed in about a day (the table fix will take an hour). The rest of it is a little harder for me because I don't know where to find the sources.

:Yes they were, but I still don't know what sites are trusted and which are not, that is where you come in.

== Divas Title ==
Reading that makes it clear to me that (besides the fact that there was not a consensus about this particular issue) is that the other editor was referring to normal referee (i.e. Mickie Henson, Earl Hebner, etc.), special guest referee is just as notable as what type of match it was or the event it happened at. Considering they became featured list WITH the info, I think it should be put back in. Especially since the other title pages have gotten praise and they include this relevant info. '''<span style="border: 2px Maroon solid;background:#4682B4;font-family: Monotype Corsiva">[[User:TJ Spyke|<span style="color:Maroon;">TJ</span>]] [[User talk:TJ Spyke|<span style="color:Maroon;">Spyke</span>]]</span>''' 01:24, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
:Not relevent? What about Bret Hart's title win over The Undertaker at SummerSlam 1997? Shawn Michaels (who was the guest ref) was the biggest factor in the match since him accidentally hitting Undertaker with a chair led to Hart winning the match and the title. Mike Tyson was also a factor in Austin winning the title at WrestleMania XIV. As for who made the comment, it still seems to me that they were talking about normal refs and not guest refs. As for match types, how could the match type not be important?

:Please see my talk page, I talked with the FL director. He said he thinks guest refs should be noted when they affect the outcome of the match (like with SS 97, but I guess Maria can be removed), but he also says the match type SHOULD be noted (not just when it's important, ALL match types).

;Some quick reminders and amendments
* This year a bot will be tallying the scores for the tournament.  This bot will be run by [[User:ST47|ST47]] and will count edits&ndash;at 0.1 points each (major edits only, see below)&ndash;and submissions at the scores listed [[User:Garden/WikiCup#Scoring|in the table]]s.
* You '''''must''''' submit any work that you manage to promote in each period on your [[User:Garden/WikiCup/Submissions|submissions page]].  Your page is located '''[[User:Garden/WikiCup/Submissions/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|here]]'''.  Rules and instructions are [[User:Garden/WikiCup/Submissions|here]] for submitting.
* Due to the massive influx of Huggle users, and because this is a ''content'' contest rather than an [[WP:EDITCOUNTITIS|editcountitis]] extravaganza, minor edits will be scored at only '''0.01''' points.  If you are a Huggle user your edits '''must''' be marked as minor or you will be disqualified.  If you are unsure, check [[Special:Contributions/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|your contributions]].
* If you wish to drop out before the tournament begins, please do so as soon as possible, but not later than January 5.

==Full thanks==
SRX/Truco I want to give my full thanks to everything you did for [[Lockdown (2008)]] over these past few months. From leaving comments for both of its peer reviews and for its FAC reviews. Leaving advice on how I could improve it. Though we've butted heads, I want to say thank you very much for the help. It is an FA today and I believe you were one of the main users who helped get it there.--[[User:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:red;">'''Will'''</span>]][[User talk:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:blue;">'''C'''</span>]] 02:53, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

:Well if you want you can use this: {{User Featured Article|Lockdown (2008)}}
I'm glad it is the first TNA FA. Considering its buyrate, it is the second highest bought event for TNA, the first being Final Resolution 06 with 70,000, because of Sting's return to mainstream wrestling. Lockdown was the first 2008 PPV GA and the first 2008 PPV FA, as well as TNA's first PPV GA and FA.--[[User:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:red;">'''Will'''</span>]][[User talk:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:blue;">'''C'''</span>]] 03:15, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

:The history section idea is mainly there to show the reason of the event. When you read an article such as WrestleMania 24 you don't know why it is so important. The history section will be a paragraph long just giving an introduction of why this event is significant. It is something I just want to try and see what people think. Well WrestleMania I think would be useful to take. I think it should be writting like TNA Bound for Glory though, to seem like a true article. Plus it would be nice to make a Good Topic out of all the Wrestlemania considering how many are left to make GAs. GaryColeFan is working on all the early WWE events. He'll have WrestleMania 8 done soon. That will only lack a few left, around 10. Bad Blood I don't think is really needed as an FA unless you are planing something. Survivor Series has been at FAC a few times, that would be nice to take so that it finally passes.--[[User:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:red;">'''Will'''</span>]][[User talk:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:blue;">'''C'''</span>]] 03:49, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

::I thought Survivor Series already went to FA at least once. I might be wrong. I would take WrestleMania 20, since it could become the featured article on Benoit's birthday or the day he died. Plus then No Way Out and WrestleMania side by side are FA.--[[User:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:red;">'''Will'''</span>]][[User talk:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:blue;">'''C'''</span>]] 04:00, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

This is a new section in the newsletter to help familiarize project members with the [[WP:MOS|Manual of Style]] and general editing tips.
#When expanding [[WP:PW/PPV|pay-per-view articles]], avoid using [[Professional wrestling terms|wrestling jargon]] without an explanation, per [[WP:JARGON]], maintain an out-of-universe perspective of the article, per [[WP:IN-U]], and avoid writing in excess detail, per [[WP:PLOT]]. For further information see [[WP:PW/PPVG]]. 
#Our project has a cleanup listing. Please help by adding sources or expanding any articles listed [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Cleanup listing|here]].
#Per [[WP:MOSCAPS]], television shows, such as ''[[WWE Raw|RAW]]'' and [[TNA Impact!|iMPACT!]], should be written as ''Raw'' and ''Impact!''.
#Due to a new consensus formed by Wikipedia users, dates should be unlinked in all articles, per [[WP:MOSNUM]].
#Please familiarize yourself with the [[WP:N|general notability policy]] of Wikipedia. Avoid creating new articles that do not satisfy the requirements.
#Avoid [[WP:OVERLINK|overlinking]] in an article. If a subject has been linked once already in the body paragraphs, there is no need to link it again, unless the length of the article requires it to be linked a second time. Lists are the only exceptions to this policy.

*There are currently '''617''' articles in [[:Category:Stub-Class Professional wrestling articles]]. It still would be greatly appreciated if anyone could help expand and/or source an article or two.

Did Stephanie say it the IC match would be at the RR? The WWE.com live results only says "But Punk’s luck quickly turned around however, as Stephanie McMahon emerged and immediately set a future rematch, where if Regal is again disqualified, he will lose the Intercontinental Title." It doesn't say the match will be at the RR.

==Regarding the WCW World Tag Team Championship==
Until 1975, Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling, the predecessor of World Championship Wrestling, didn't recognize its own tag team champions, as there was no title to award its division at the time. The NWA, of which Mid-Atlantic was a part of, also hadn't formally recognized a tag team championship of its own that would be above any territorial title either. Because of this, other promotions that conformed the NWA took the liberty of recognizing their tag team titles to bear the name of NWA World Tag Team Championship, which resulted in there being multiple tag team titles within the NWA which bore the name, NWA World Tag Team Championship, in their promotions. Mid-Atlantic soon followed suit and established their tag team prize as the NWA World Tag Team Championship as well. This NWA tag title continued to be defended even as Mid-Atlantic's parent company, Jim Crockett Promotions, became World Championship Wrestling. It wasn't until WCW's split from the NWA in 1991 that the title would be renamed the WCW World Tag Team Championship. The title was nothing more than renamed and essentially remained the same title. Even as now separate entities, the NWA and WCW renegotiated and maintained a close relationship as evident by the recognition of Ric Flair as World Champion of both entities. It wasn't until 1992 that the NWA formally recognized the NWA World Tag Team Championship that would be above any territorial prize, next to the NWA World Heavyweight Championship itself. The tournament for this NWA World Tag Team Championship, of which the WCW World Tag Team Champions were also part of, was won by the WCW World Tag Team Champions themselves and as a result, the WCW World Tag Team Champions, [[Terry Gordy]] and [["Dr. Death" Steve Williams|Steve Williams]], also became holders of the NWA's first non-territorial tag team title known as the NWA World Tag Team Championship. They continued to defend both titles simultaneously until 1993 when the NWA and WCW ended all relationships and the NWA World Tag Team Championship was vacated as a result.

It is because of this that your statement...
"''WCW was using the NWA World Tag Team Titles but they returned it and created a new title, and the champions from the NWA title were named the new WCW tag champions.''"
...is incorrect.

For you see, the NWA World Tag Team Championship you see today next to the NWA World Heavyweight Championship was not created until a year after WCW split from the NWA in 1991. On [[January 17]] [[2008]], the NWA retconned its World Tag Team Championship's reign history and removed the reigns of those held during the time the WCW and NWA World Tag Team Championships were simultaneously defended. However because it was retconned, it is still recognized by Wikipedia nonetheless, however, also making note of the NWA's new stance on its Championship's history.

It is also because of this that your statement in the edit summary left [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=List_of_WCW_World_Tag_Team_Champions&diff=262681017&oldid=262673737 here]...
"''That's because the reigns within those sections were only recognized by those promotions.''"
...is incorrect as well.

The NWA didn't recognize ANY NWA World Tag Team Championship until 1992. It was Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling that did and it was the NWA World Tag Team Championship of Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling that became the WCW World Tag Team Championship. Thus separating these reigns for your reason would be inaccurate. Also these reigns were also recognized while the WCW World Tag Team Championship was in the WWF. Thus separating those reigns would be inaccurate as well.<sup>--[[User:3bulletproof16|<span style="color:blue;">'''Unquestionable'''</span>]][[User talk:3bulletproof16|<span style="color:green;">'''Truth'''</span>]]--</sup> 08:27, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

::Truco what you are citing is a source that follows retconned history. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NWA_World_Tag_Team_Championship#History] There were numerous tag titles in the promotions that conformed the NWA that bore the name of NWA World Tag Team Championship. Mid Atlantic was no exception. The NWA World Tag Team Championship of Mid Atlantic has no connection to the NWA's main NWA World Tag Team Championship as a result.

::I'm not sure if you've read my user page or not, but I'm home schooled. It has been that way since 2002. I missed my last year of elementary school and all the way up to half of my junior year. I must go back this year. I plan on that very soon. I've been home so much that I'm sick of it. I'm on here all the time as a result. I live in a town of 700 with no one my age that is around. I have no license or job. I'm getting the license next month. I'm getting a job in August. I'll be 18 then and starting my last year of high school. I plan to go back before March. When that happens I'm going to get a steady girlfriend unlike the ones I've had before. I will refuse to stay home and I will be out somewhere. No matter where it is. I've missed so much time that I must somehow make it up. I doubt I'll have much time to be online. I might be on to write the 2009 TNA PPVs. But I'll probably be more like DMN today or Mshake3. Later in 09 I'll have a good chance of being like Hybrid. I doubt I'll leave it fully until 2010 but I just will not be on much later this year.--[[User:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:red;">'''Will'''</span>]][[User talk:Wrestlinglover|<span style="color:blue;">'''C'''</span>]] 02:26, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

== PR request ==

Artist Formerly Known as SRX, I have a favor to ask of you. I'm planning to take the plunge and nominate [[Super Bowl Most Valuable Player Award]] at FLC imminently, but I've taken it to [[Wikipedia:Peer review/Super Bowl Most Valuable Player Award/archive1|peer review]] first. If I'm going to nominate it, the page needs to be at the highest level possible, considering that the game is upcoming soon. This is a page that will attract editors, but I don't think it will be overwhelming if the quality level is high enough. If you have time, could you please stop by the PR and offer some thoughts? Thanks for any advice you can provide.

;<big>From the Judges</big>
This years WikiCup started off great! It's only the second full week of competition, and we already have a lot of content promoted. We have some very close pools, such as Pool A and J. We also have some pools who have not been very active yet, but hopefully that will start changing in the coming weeks.

Garden and iMatthew have also opened a new pool, the "Judge's Pool" where we are competing against each other and following the same rules as all of you. This pool however, will never have any effect on the actual competition, but you can still check back often to see how we are doing compared to yourself.

That's it for this newsletter edition, everyone. Any questions or comments are always welcome on the WikiCup talk page, or our user talk pages. Until next time, [[User talk:Garden|<span style="color:#333333;">'''Garden'''</span>]]. and <font face="cursive">'''[[User:IMatthew|<span style="color:#007BA7">iMatthew</span>]] // [[User talk:IMatthew|<span style="color:#960018">talk</span>]]''' // </font> 13:55, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

== Your accusation ==

I take offense to your accusation of "drama and immaturity". The discussion at WT:PW was not productive, as you refused to accept any viewpoints other than your own. People made their points and then you came along and told them they were wrong. I simply said that there were better things to do than argue about an article's title. I don't see that as either dramatic or immature. [[User:GaryColemanFan|GaryColemanFan]] ([[User talk:GaryColemanFan|talk]]) 04:33, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
:Thank you for your reply. I can see where we each got frustrated with each other. I will renew my efforts to avoid controversial discussions, as very little good tends to come of it. I agree that it's best that we both get back to editing; you've been doing a great job, and I've found something to do within the project that I enjoy. Hope things are going well for you. [[User:GaryColemanFan|GaryColemanFan]] ([[User talk:GaryColemanFan|talk]]) 21:57, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
::I just didn't feel like I wanted to be a member of a project. My interest in Wikipedia is still editing wrestling articles, though, as I find it a pleasant diversion from work. I don't have any hard feelings toward the project, and I still want to do what I can to help make it stronger.

== *Sigh* ==

I noticed your sig had templates in it. This is not allowed per [[WP:SIG]]. Templates can be vandalized. For example, if an IP who did not like the user Example and wrote in the template, "[[User:Example]] IS A ****ING RETARD" and Saved it, you would not notice. And when you sign, it will appear. This will get you into trouble, and when you explain that an IP vandalized the template, you will get in more trouble, cause templates are not allowed. Please, change your sig, because I don't want to see a user as amazing as you get blocked for a silly litttle thing like a sig. Thanks.

:::Yes, but sometimes vandalism won't be noticed. Just in case, it's better if he does the font tags. It only increases the sig character count a little.

:::::Yes, it will for a short period of time. The last time the templates in his sig got busted up, his sig looked horrible. The same can be done with vandalism. But, it does not matter anymore. His sig is fine now. Let it be.

== Rename ==

The bureaucrat who dealt with your rename confirmed he's been asking the developers about your problem but had not yet received any response (checm my talk page). Unfortunately there's not much any of us can do since it is something only the developers can deal with and they do tend to be a busy bunch. Your problem is somewhat different from that of Dasani which could be fixed by any admin. [[User:Nil Einne|Nil Einne]] ([[User talk:Nil Einne|talk]]) 09:56, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

== RE:WCW HOF ==

I looked it over and didn't see any problems. Great job! [[User:Nikki311|<span style="color:Teal;">'''Nikki'''</span>]]<span style="color:Salmon;">'''♥'''</span>[[User Talk:Nikki311|<span style="color:Purple;">'''311'''</span>]] 02:15, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

==ECW Television Championship==
I see you've dealt with this before. [[List of ECW Television champions]] needs to be moved back to '''List of ECW Television Champions''' as well. <sup>--[[User:3bulletproof16|<span style="color:blue;">'''Unquestionable'''</span>]][[User talk:3bulletproof16|<span style="color:green;">'''Truth'''</span>]]--</sup> 03:02, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

:Great. Thanks for letting Nikki know. I'll get to archiving my talk page soon. Thank you though. <sup>--[[User:3bulletproof16|<span style="color:blue;">'''Unquestionable'''</span>]][[User talk:3bulletproof16|<span style="color:green;">'''Truth'''</span>]]--</sup> 04:24, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
