Your uncivil warning on my page

I have no clue what you're talking about. I added nothing of the kind to an article. With postings, nay "warnings", like that you are not welcome on my talk page. Str1977 ^(talk) 23:45, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello again. Your misdirected posting attracted my interested and I had a look into the issue. I'm afraid your additions of "despite not being signed to a contract" is both unencyclopedic - we include things that are, not things that are not - and unsourced. You will have to provide a source for people's non-contracted status and also explain why this is noteworthy. However, given your edits I take that there is indeed something going on and hence others should also not write that wrestlers are signed without a source. Hence, I removed your "not signed" additions but made sure that no positive statement on them being signed is included either. Str1977 ^(talk) 11:53, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice (Matthew Tardiff 20:32, 16 October 2016 (UTC))

Sorry for the uncivil comment Matthew Tardiff 02:05, 18 October 2016 (UTC) Matthew Tardiff 02:05, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a comment on the page User talk:Crash Underride with this edit that didn't seem very civil, so I removed it. Wikipedia needs people like you and me to collaborate, so it’s one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 04:49, 18 October 2016 (UTC) First of all we've both been at it and it's not fair that I'm getting singled out when he started it first and all I'm doing is defending myself Matthew Tardiff 04:57, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

I think he needs a warning as well we've both been going at it Matthew Tardiff 05:01, 18 October 2016 (UTC) Matthew Tardiff 05:01, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Why do I need a warning? I never violated WP:PA, nor did I cuss you out, nor did I in any way threaten you. ^{(talk page stalker)} CrashUnderride 05:10, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Cause this arguing and threats to each other isn't going anywhere and second I don't wanna talk to you and I've asked you twice now do you agree to never talk to each other again Matthew Tardiff 05:14, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

I haven't made threats. :D The only "threat" I made was when I mentioned that I posted on an admins talk page about the discussion and your behavior. ^{(talk page stalker)} CrashUnderride 05:17, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Still a threat never the less Matthew Tardiff Matthew Tardiff 05:18, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Actually, no it wasn't. I mentioned something that I had already done. I was just mentioning it to Warmachine. Please re-read the definition of "threat" that I posted on my talk page. ^{(talk page stalker)} CrashUnderride 05:23, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Kenny and Mikey

There has been no official announcement by WWE that they are signed. The info that I added was that they perform in WWE, despite no official contract signing. This is derived off of the same way the info was presented for Eric Young, when he wasn't officially signed at the time. The source that I added, and you removed, clearly stated what you said – there is no official word on if they signed WWE contracts. Sekyaw (talk) 13:05, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

Oh my bad MatthewTardiff 15:17, 22 October 2016 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 15:17, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Toiene0wwe90sd. I noticed that you made a change to an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Toiene0wwe90sd (talk) 03:02, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

TheBellaTwins1445

Perfect guy but may you please help in here this DantODB user has been re-editing all of my edits that are currently correct but he keeps creating even more accounts so please I really need of your help too, Thanks.TheBellaTwins1445^(talk) 15:38, January 2, 2017 (UTC)

Your having a problem with user to I Just reported him for the second time, he is constantly re editing articles and removing things as well MatthewTardiff 15:41, 2 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 15:41, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Hey guy check this out, User:DantODB reported by User:Vjmlhds (Result: ), you should of also go and help in this discussion, he needs a real punishment.TheBellaTwins1445^(talk) 15:47, January 2, 2017 (UTC)

So does this user Brandmeenn it may be the same guy but he needs a real punishement as well I've had to fix the same article three times MatthewTardiff 15:48, 2 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 15:48, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Hey @TheBellaTwins1445 use Brandmeenn as evidence for sock puppet evidnece MatthewTardiff 17:20, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Can you do me a favor and point me to admins MatthewTardiff 17:26, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Stop trolling

What's your problem with wikipedia? You vandalized all the articles but you call me as "vandalizer" and "puppet". Really? These are very funny. I think you are a troll. Brandmeenn (talk) 18:46, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

I don't Vandalize I add sources and remove things that are vandalism MatthewTardiff 18:47, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

You on the other hand have been removing things that are key to the article and not providing a reliable source for the removal which is vandalism MatthewTardiff 18:49, 2 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 18:49, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

So, really? I don't think so. I see that you are vandaled all the articles. Brandmeenn (talk) 18:52, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

All the articles have been provided with a source which is not vandalism please read up on the rules of Wikipedia MatthewTardiff 18:54, 2 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 18:54, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

It's not about reliable sources, I combined short sections on Bill Goldberg article, but you revert it everytime. Brandmeenn (talk) 18:57, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

Yes because early fueds and championship departure is key parts of the article and you have been reported to a administrator MatthewTardiff 18:58, 2 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 18:58, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

What's the early fueds? You can't even write the right words. And these aren't key parts of article, because his WWE section is already short. Brandmeenn (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

The early fueds are when a wrestler gets in it with the same wrestler over and over again and that's what happened when Goldberg started his job at Wwe which is a key part of the article as I have pointed out, by you removing it makes the article less informative and lacks the truth and when a wrestler starts in a company they either start as a tag team or not which is the title of the article which you keep on removing MatthewTardiff 19:05, 2 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 19:05, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

And to begin with the early fueds and championship and departure was already apart of the Goldberg Article before you removed it, and all in doing is adding it back MatthewTardiff 19:08, 2 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 19:08, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

We both got blocked MatthewTardiff 04:23, 11 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 04:23, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Kevin Owens

Just a comment, I wouldn't classify this edit as "reverting vandalism", simply because the sub-section talks about his entire NXT run, not just his run as NXT champion. ^{(talk page stalker)} CrashUnderride 18:56, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Now thinking about it your right thanks for the heads up MatthewTardiff 19:00, 7 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 19:00, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Glad to help. ^{(talk page stalker)} CrashUnderride 19:02, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Yeah me to MatthewTardiff 19:04, 7 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 19:04, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Hey Crash I know we had our share of disagreements but can you take a look at this user Brandmeenn and see if this user is vandalizing I can't really tell if you can take a look thanks if not I understand MatthewTardiff 23:30, 8 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 23:30, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Anything specific? From what I saw from the ones I checked out, I didn't see any. Also, use {{Ping}} so I get a notification, otherwise, I may miss your replies. ^{(talk page stalker)} CrashUnderride 17:51, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Damo's new ring name

Think you need to rethink this, fella. Damo's now known under the ring name Killian Dain. His Twitter and Instagram account reflect this. There wouldn't be such a drastic change if something wasn't happening. APM (talk) 00:02, 9 January 2017 (UTC)AmorPatiturMoras

Until WWW confirms it, then it can be changed twitter and Instagram are not reliable sources MatthewTardiff 00:04, 9 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 00:04, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Twitter is not a reliable source you need to stop adding it cause it's not a reliable source for Wikipedia MatthewTardiff 21:07, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

You need to find a article with a name change MatthewTardiff 21:17, 9 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 21:17, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Tardiff, I've had enough. I don't want to lose my account over this petty nonsense. Here is Damo's Cagematch profile: [1] You can quite clearly see that he has NEVER wrestled under the name "Big Damo O'Connor". In WWE, the closest he has to that name, was "Damo O'Connor" (3 matches), and after that he wrestled under the name "Damo". APM (talk) 21:29, 9 January 2017 (UTC)AmorPatiturMoras

If you keep using twitter as a source you can loose your account if you find a reliable source then it can be added MatthewTardiff 21:32, 9 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 21:32, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

If you'd stop and think for a minute, the Twitter reference has gone and is replaced by one from Pro Wrestling Insider. And that was hours ago! APM (talk) 21:34, 9 January 2017 (UTC)AmorPatiturMoras

A administrator has confirmed that the name change can't be changed until WWE announces it MatthewTardiff 21:35, 9 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 21:35, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

You're not listening to me. 1) I'm not asking for an article change. 2) He was never known as "Big Damo O'Connor". APM (talk) 21:38, 9 January 2017 (UTC)AmorPatiturMoras

Look under the SaNiTY wiki and it is cited MatthewTardiff 22:05, 9 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 22:05, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

One of your own edits, I see. And even then, said citation lists him as "Big Damo". Once again, he was never known as "Big Damo O'Connor". APM (talk) 22:11, 9 January 2017 (UTC)AmorPatiturMoras

I didn't cite the big damp O'conor someone else did and it turned out to be a reliable source MatthewTardiff 23:52, 9 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 23:52, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Becky Lynch

You reverted an IP here on the Becky Lynch article as Unsourced. The information is not Unsourced as Lynch is/was the inaugural Smackdown Women's Champion and held it for about 3 months which is discussed further down in the article. I have corrected the article back as I assume you did this in error. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 00:07, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Agreed. There is an entire sourced section on this portion that you removed. Remember - we want quality not necessarily speed when working on the wiki. -- Dane ^talk 01:03, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

I do agree and know that she was but doesn't it need to be cited or am I wrong, Im still learning I just want to make sure MatthewTardiff 01:34, 13 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 01:34, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

I do appreciate the message as I did indeed make a error MatthewTardiff 01:35, 13 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 01:35, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

It was cited further in the article unless it's been removed. Secondly Since she is the first ever Smackdown Women's Champion that makes her the inaugural Champion. So it sources itself sort of as well. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 01:37, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

I did make a error I appreciate the message you are 100% correct on Becky Lynch MatthewTardiff 01:39, 13 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 01:39, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Edits

You constantly revert edits I make that are sourced and correct. What was the point of removing the link to Naoki Tanizaki on Akira Tozawa's article? And you said "needs sources" or something like that on Drew Gulak's page even though they are already there. If you're going to remove edits for the sake of it just because you don't like me, I'm going to report you for harassment. TDOldSpice (talk) 17:03, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

When you add something like that you need to provide the cited source and threatening me will get you blocked indefinitely so I'd watch what you say MatthewTardiff 19:11, 13 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 19:11, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

This is bordering on uncivil behavior, MatthewTardiff. Your first response (19:11) got the message across, your further responses were unnecessary and only inflame this situation. Please refrain from this behavior in the future. I understand you're frustrated but we need to be productive and firm (which your first post was), not badgering and rude. Thanks. -- Dane ^talk 21:08, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Your right I own up to my mistake of escalating it I did get frustrated I will remove the uncivil messages MatthewTardiff 21:11, 13 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 21:11, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Thank you. I know it can be frustrating in situations like this but a cool head will keep this situation moving in a productive direction. I've also left a note for TDOldSpice regarding sourcing with some more tips to help them. -- Dane ^talk 21:18, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Yes it can be frustrating and I do appreciate the heads up on me being uncivil and I will keep a cool head and not make things worse as I am human and I do make mistakes I do appreciate the help MatthewTardiff 21:19, 13 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 21:19, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Signature / RFPP

Hi MatthewTardiff. I wanted to drop you a friendly note that your signature does not link back to your userpage or talk page. You may want to correct this as it makes it easier for other users to communicate with you.

I've declined your RFPP requests as both articles have low disruption, and semi-protection would not make any difference as both involved parties are autoconfirmed. Please continue discussing the content dispute with the other editor (as I see is occurring above) or use the article's talk pages. -- ferret (talk) 20:02, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Ok thanks MatthewTardiff 20:54, 13 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 20:54, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Reverting Edits

Hey,

Just ran across some of your edits and looked at your recent contribs...when you "undo" a revision, please leave a comment about why you're undoing it, even if it's short like "vandal" as this will help the editor you're undoing understand why you're undoing their edits. You have been doing this only some of the time up until now. Also, I noticed at Mickie James you reverted twice today, remember - take any contentious reverts to the talk page and gain consensus there.

Thanks! -- Dane ^talk 07:16, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Before I go on my break I'd like to add please stop reverting sourced material that is correct. Your revert on Jay Briscoe was incorrect as the link you changed it to linked to Mark Briscoe not Jay. Please you need to check these things before you revert unless it is clear Vandalism so as not to get yourself in any trouble down the road. Thanks Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 07:23, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

I understand Dane and sorry warMachine I didn't see the cited source MatthewTardiff 02:56, 19 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 02:56, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Hey warMachine on the Kurt angle article I did not add he was signed by wwe it was another user (MatthewTardiff 03:31, 19 January 2017 (UTC)) MatthewTardiff 03:31, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

I know an IP did that's why I reverted it back to your edit which was correct. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 03:46, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Oh just wanted to make sure I wasn't in the wrong (MatthewTardiff 06:43, 19 January 2017 (UTC)) MatthewTardiff 06:43, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Batista/Bautista

I'm having a hard time understanding the reverts you have made, if you look at the start of the section on his early life:-

"Bautista was born in Washington, D.C. His mother, Donna Raye (née Mullins), has Greek ancestry, and his father, David Michael Bautista (a still active hairdresser in the DC area), is the son of Filipino immigrants"

So I figured I would at least have the uniformity of the surname in this section. I am not keen to touch the Wrestling thing as I appreciate he used the Batista then.

I have started a new section in the talk article regarding his name (before you reverted my edits) I think that there should be uniformity in each section at the very least? Please reply back to me on my talk page. Amanda138a (talk) 23:38, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

There was nothing wrong with the edits made as the Article name is Dave Bautista. Batista should only be used when referring to the Character, otherwise Bautista should be used as that is his birth name. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 23:50, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

That's what I was gonna explain as well MatthewTardiff 23:52, 19 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 23:52, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Her edits were correct as she changed Batista to Bautista where it referred to Bautista the person. I would advise removing the warning you issued her. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 23:55, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Alright MatthewTardiff 00:00, 20 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 00:00, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

I took care of it for you, clearly it was done by mistake and should be treated as a simple good faith mistake. No harm no foul. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 00:24, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

Thanks warMachine it was a mistake and my computer wouldn't allow me to remove it (MatthewTardiff 00:25, 20 January 2017 (UTC)) MatthewTardiff 00:25, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

Luke Harper

Hello, I received the message and I've seen my additins on Luke Harper have been undone. It was the "Personal Life" section, how is knowing about the fact that he's a fan of a specifical director or how he came up with his first ring name not considered constructive? Thanks. DSKD (talk) 03:46, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

@DSKD: User:Ribbon Salminen was the one who reverted your addition, and it looks like a good revert. In short, the information you added was not sourced to a reliable source. ansh666 06:19, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

Because I checked what you put down if it is not cited or sourced than it can't be put there otherwise it will keep getting reverted if you don't understand the policy please check the guidelines on Wikipedia thank you MatthewTardiff 15:52, 28 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 15:52, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

As I did found check what you sourced the information it is a unreliable source which is the reason why I reverted it MatthewTardiff 15:58, 28 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 15:58, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

Raymond Rowe

You continue to make and revert edits without leaving a reason as to why. If you're going to make edits, please leave a good reason or make them worthwhile. All you did in reverting my last edit was add the same picture to an article twice. It's quite obvious at this point that you have some sort of vendetta against my edits and thats fine, I don't care, but don't make or revert edits that are constructive to the article and improve it. The picture of Rowe I added is much more current and actually shows him in the ring. The other one is still used in the article and shows him normally. Please think before you edit. Thanks. TDOldSpice (talk) 10:59, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

One cause the original picture was updated which that doesn't need to be changed to their stable picture I did provide a reason to why I changed it if you wish to change it back please provide a reliable reason thank you MatthewTardiff 15:50, 28 January 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 15:50, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

Roderick Strong

Your constant reversion of my edit to Roderick Strong is not proving to be constructive at all; "where they was" is not correct English and there are no sources or references to back it up, yet, in spite of this, you claim that there were both references and that the English was correct, when in fact it wasn't. Please stop with the tendentious just because I was the one who edited the page. It contributes nothing of value. TDOldSpice (talk) 09:02, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

The correct grammar is "where they were" not was. ^{(talk page stalker)} CrashUnderride 09:49, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

Carmella and Alexa Bliss

Hi there. I don't appreciate my edits being called vandalism. If you check and see the edits that I made, I was merely reverting bold edits that weren't necessary, or were not in the proper format. Thank you. DantODB (talk) 21:12, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

If you can't handle criticism then you don't belong on the internet that's very simple, everyone criticizes everything if you can't handle it well then I don't know what to tell you MatthewTardiff 21:14, 27 February 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 21:14, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

If it's necessary I'll get a administrator to settle this MatthewTardiff 21:15, 27 February 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 21:15, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

I have no problem with being criticized. I'm merely defending my edits and making sure that you understand that there is a difference between vandalism and edits that don't suit your liking. I have no problem with getting an administrator involved. DantODB (talk) 21:17, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

That's not defending your edits by saying you don't like when people criticize that's just complaining and if you looked on reliable sources 411 mania is not proven to be reliable so there for it isn't and is reliable at the same time. MatthewTardiff 21:20, 27 February 2017 (UTC) MatthewTardiff 21:20, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
