Hey, this is Kingrock, i am now Gears of War just wanted to update you, also I see you have moved to!Gears Of War 23:31, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Congrats on it passing GA. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 19:24, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

It looks better now. But, didn't Owen Hart died after a car accident? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:17, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
Really? Where the hell did I read that, then? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:20, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
OMG, how terrible. Now, I feel bad that I didn't know what happened to him. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:31, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
Not really, it sort of crashes my computer. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:06, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Hmm, I tried avoiding that, since there's a whole bunch of controversy with it. But, I do want to go by the Manual of Style. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:09, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
If that's how SmackDown! will be searched on here, then yeah. Like I said, I don't want to be part of that discussion and yes I know, I'm a coward for ignoring the topic. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:15, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Well, I just want to be clear from the discussion and thanks for me not being a coward. ;) Hey, I want to apologize for not helping you with the WWF/E video game list, I've been busy with other stuff. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:21, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Really? I didn't know that, I though it was just a list. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:24, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Oh, well see, I learn something new everyday. ;) Do you think your going to expand it? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:33, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Sure. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:52, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Wait, a list of the winners of the MITB? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:54, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

That makes sense. What do you want me to do? Outside question: Is there a limit when adding peer reviews to articles? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:58, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Yup, the sources I'll do. Yeah, is there a limit when it comes to peer reviews? The reason I ask, is cause I currently have two and I want to add one to an article, but I'm wondering if there's a limit or not. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 03:05, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Alright, I'll go with your word. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 03:12, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Um, alright. What title list? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 03:23, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Count me in. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 03:39, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
Hey, do I unbold the teams that held the titles or what? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:57, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

King iMatthew 2008 has given you Brownies! Brownies promote WikiLove and hopefully this plate has made your day better, and made you less hungry! Spread the WikiLove to others, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Cheers, and Happy editing! Have a nice, delicious plate of chocolate brownies. You've been doing a great job in recent weeks, so I though you deserved a treat. Enjoy! King iMatthew 2008 21:21, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Over the Edge (1999)

I think the article is going to need some more copyediting before it's ready for GA status. I'm not honestly sure if it will pass its reassessment (it seems like a much more difficult path to GA status), but I feel pretty confident that it would pass a GA review if it was relisted after a thorough copyedit. GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:02, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

RE: WrestleMania

I think the background/history part is pretty important to the article, so I don't think it should be removed. However, I think there is too much to make it an FL. If you want it to be an FL, I would suggest making two separate articles: List of WrestleMania dates and venues and keep the WrestleMania article as a history of the event type of thing. Nikki311 22:14, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

The list article? The table with the dates, venues, and maybe list the main events (see SummerSlam). I'd ask on WT:PW first before creating any new articles, though, and get some other opinions. Nikki311 22:21, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Learn how to move pages dude.

It is...(I can't stress this enough...) HIGHLY DISCOURAGED to redirect pages in order to move them per WP:MOVE. The reason the page cannot be moved by normal users is because an admin blocked page moves to the article due to a number of users moving the page a few months ago. To move the page you must contact an admin to perform the task. Redirecting pages in order to move them disrupts history pages of articles, which is why it is frowned on to do so. Assume good faith next time Truco. -- bulletproof 3:16 07:17, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

 Done. BTW, since you requested that GCF review SummerSlam (2000), I was wondering if you could fix his concerns? –Cheers, LAX 14:42, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

2005 WWE Draft

What do you think about putting this on peer review. It has a chance at FL. King iMatthew 2008 12:24, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, put both up. King iMatthew 2008 16:05, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
You can even make this a featured topic. King iMatthew 2008 16:27, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, I just clicked on it and it gave me these "hidden" notes. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:06, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
Something about the titles being vacated. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:10, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
It does the same for me. So, what do I do? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:15, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
IDK, its sorta confusing. Can't we just do the same thing we did with the WCW Hardcore list? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:49, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I'm Cimmo, I put my self up for adoption and someone has offered but I declined that offer. LAX recommended that you are the one that should adopt me because you know alot of stuff about Wikipedia, but I only want help on wrestling articles. If you accept me that would be cool. Cheers.- Cimmo (talk) 3:39, 26 May (UTC)

How do I write a good wrestling article, with people helping me and also are you cool with me? Cheers.- Cimmo (talk) 7:31, 27 May (UTC)

No I don't. Can you teach me how. Cheers.- Cimmo (talk) 3:42, 27 May (UTC)

I dont want you to be my adopted person. So can you drop me as your adopter. Cheers.- Cimmo (talk), 8:17 31 May (UTC)

Nothing. I made a mistake I should of thought before I wrote that. Sorry. Do you still want to be my adopter. Cheers.- Cimmo (talk), 8:30, 31 May (UTC)

WP:HAU

Hello yet again. I regretfully inform you that the bot we were using to update the user status at Wikipedia:Highly Active Users, SoxBot V, was blocked for its constant updating. With this bot out of operation, a patch is in the works. Until that patch is reviewed and accepted by the developers, some options have been presented to use as workarounds: 1) Qui monobook (not available in Internet Explorer); 2) User:Hersfold/StatusTemplate; 3) Manually updating User:StatusBot/Status/USERNAME; or 4) Not worry about it and wait for the patch to go through, which hopefully won't take long. If you have another method, you can use that, too. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Useight (talk) 18:01, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
Here is an early barnstar for changing the infoboxes in wrestling pay-per-view articles. Good idea..I know it will be very helpful. Good work! iMatthew T.C. 20:54, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Question?

Why are you adding new info to the info wrestling boxes? Just was wondering.--WillC (talk) 21:16, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Does that include TNA articles or is it just for WWE?--WillC (talk) 21:19, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Okay because I don't pay attention to message boards. I just do the small things around here. I guess I'll change the TNA articles then.--WillC (talk) 21:32, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
No problem. I would really like to get TNA articles to be just as important as WWE's. That why I've been working more of TNA's stuff than WWE's. Uploading images and making articles for future ppvs.--WillC (talk) 21:35, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Well I have no idea how to do that. I'm not very good at making reports. Just look at Lockdown (2008). I almost screwed that one up. Then again there was nothing to screw up because I'm the only one that wrote the report.--WillC (talk) 21:41, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Okay. I went by Victory Road (2004) and Turning Point (2004). Those were done and I just went by what was mentioned in it and went by storylines that were around Lockdown. Thanks for the info. I'll go and fix it latter.--WillC (talk) 21:54, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
The TNA articles are done. I don't think there is a reason to do ROH's because they only have a few ppvs.--WillC (talk) 00:40, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Yeah I agree. After they have a few more then it should be done. I'll help you if you want on the WWE stuff. Just tell me the ones you haven't done.--WillC (talk) 00:56, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Okay, I'll try. I'm use to doing that way because I would observe other people's edits and that was how they did it and after a while I just started getting use to doing like that.--WillC (talk) 01:01, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Question: How do I get that little Online thingy you have at the top right corner? Is that special or do I need a certain template?--WillC 05:29, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Reply

Sorry but I don't assume good faith when the user didn't bother to read the discussion pages for that article to find what the conclusions were rather than to revise history for the page and try to claim his own. We already concluded on how the information should look on that page a while ago, why someone continues to try and say otherwise is beyond me. If you're going to tell me to not insult the guy, then tell him not to insult my intelligence and try to read through the talk pages and carefully read the reply that I made to his 5 page long ramble on how he sees the history going down.

New PPV Infobox details

I have been going through some of the WCW PPV articles, adding the new chronology information. If you get chance could you have a quick look and make sure I am doing them right, then I can press on with the rest. So far I have done Beach Blast, WCW Mayhem, Road Wild, Souled Out and The Great American Bash but before I start on the rest I just wanted to make sure that the information was correct.

Cheers --Apsouthern (talk) 13:31, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Cool, I'll look at getting the rest of them done over the next week --Apsouthern (talk) 15:09, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Actually, I don't think I'll worry about getting them done as the ones above have all been reverted by 13 of Diamonds so I will assume that they were deemed unnecessary. --Apsouthern (talk) 09:33, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
You implemented that less than one day after you started that discussion. Please continue the discussion here. --13 of Diamonds (talk) 21:47, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

WWE Divas Championship

There should have been a discussion about this. The last time a new championship was supposedly announced before the draft, it's existence turned out to be unnecessary (SmackDown! Championship in 2005). I feel we should wait until at least an actual belt is seen or presented, much in the same way the TNA Knockout's title was treated. --UnquestionableTruth-- 02:35, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Well from the stuff that I've read online it seems highly likely. Still disregarding dirt sheets, there just isn't enough information to verify its existence at the moment. Only a mention of a Diva's title was made and the last time a Championship switched brands was only 3 years ago. If it happened before it can happen again. It's just that this close to the draft a number of things can be possible. At least when the Knockout's title was announced, images of the actual new belt had surfaced which confirmed and justified its existence. However, now that the page has been created, deleting it wouldn't do much good as I can guarantee I will be created again by others that just watched SmackDown. Keeping a close eye on it would be the best thing to do. --UnquestionableTruth-- 02:49, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Here's the link I was talking about above. [1] Like I said, dirt sheets should be disregarded so take it for what it is. --UnquestionableTruth-- 03:15, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
