Steiner

Hi. I see you removed Scott Steiner of the Impact Roster. I recommend to watch the article, since there is a user who includes him just because he made guest appearences. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:55, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

@HHH Pedrigree: Sounds good, yeah he is almost 60 years old and has not wrestled with them since April of last year. Defenitly not on a active contract. STATic message me! 22:32, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
I think like you. Rosters are for regular wrestlers. Steiner made an appearance two weeks ago. But he makes one appearance every 6 months, that's not regular and he is not under contract, like The Undertaker or Lesnar, for example. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 22:59, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

Tagging

Alright fair enough, I won't remove tags unless they've been addressed. MPJ-DK (talk) 04:02, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Guevara tagging

Hi there, I am trying to figure out what relevant information is missing on Sammy Guevara's MLW stint? He had 4-5 matches, all losses, no storylines and nothing notable. Why is it tagged for "Expansion"? Honestly, his MLW stint is so trivial it should just be part of the "independent circuit". An article should not contain a match-by-match listing of all activities, it should recap significant information. MPJ-DK (talk) 23:35, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

@MPJ-DK: The article is tiny, it's practically a stub. It needs expansion in general. He had progression and was involved in storylines on the show. You cannot keep saying that certain wrestlers were not in notable angles/matches if you do not follow the show or wrestling news. Sammy was involved in angles and MLW is the most mainstream promotion in the US he has worked with. I do not see how that is trival. There is always more to write. Again, maintenance templates are not a bad thing. Please be civil, I'm using my time just like you to make Wikipedia a better place, nothing we could do is "unproductive". STATic message me! 01:05, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
He was in 5 matches, lost four and then MLW stopped using him. What significant work did he do in MLW? I left the AAA tag, that I can see - but adding it for MLW just invites people to put in overly detailed, match by match breakdown for something that in the scope of his career is nothing but a minor blip on the radar now that he's left the company. If he was still with them I would leave the tag alone. And can you please quote where I am uncivil? Asking a question when I do not understand the motivation behind a tag is not uncivil, it's asking a question, if you can stand behind your edits I don't see how it's a problem to answer a simple question? MPJ-DK (talk) 01:43, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
Also - nothing wrong with an article being tiny if there is not a lot of notable content.MPJ-DK (talk) 01:44, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
Sorry for the three-peat. What exactly do you think is missing from the MLW section? MPJ-DK (talk) 01:45, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
@MPJ-DK: Calling good faithed maintenance tagging "unproductive" in your original section title is pretty uncivil. As I stated in my edit summary he had two notable storylines. He came into the promotion with Salina De La Renta as he manager, following a loss she fired him from her stable on a later episode. Sammy was then upset about this. He later returned being presented by Konnan as AAA's cruiserweight champion and then begun to be managed by Konnan. This would involve him slightly in MLW's main storyline at the time (Salina vs Konnon). This is not mentioned in the article and this was his most high profile angle on the show. I didn't want to type out a description of their storyline but you asked what's missing.. STATic message me! 02:00, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
So what is "productive" about it? What has the tagging actually achieved? You could have spent 5 minutes putting that in the article instead of just stating "oh someone else needs to do this", hence labeling it as unproductive. Also pushing for overly detailed recap of what in the big picture of Guevara's career has amounted to nothing is also not productive, there are a lot of wrestling articles out there that already suffer from "detail overload" to a large degree, encouraging others to add this level of fan-ish detail to more articles is not productive. MPJ-DK (talk) 02:12, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
@MPJ-DK: "You should have done it" is not an argument, why would we have maintenance templates then? We're not talking about the big picture, we are talking about the storylines in the said promotion that formed a significant part of his career. You will find details of matches and storylines in any GA or FA BLP. This does not qualify as weekly events so you have no backing to your point. You asked me to explain what you were missing so I did, I do not expect everything I typed to be put in the article which should have been clear based on my response. STATic message me! 02:22, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
Well technically "it is an argument", I made it, and in response to "why do we have maintenance templates" I offer the question "Why do we all have the ability to edit articles"? We fundamentally disagree on this, but as long as the tagging on your part is not to encourage the addition of minor, obscure details I have and will continue to leave them in place. And 5 matches over 1 year is "significant"? the height of "significance" was, by your own words, "involve him slightly" in a totally different story. Like I said if he was in MLW I would have left it, the potential for more, but now? Over and insignificant to his career. And good, there is no backing for "weekly events", which is cool - and not actually an argument I made. I will keep considering it "unproductive" until someone can actually show me what was produced by your edits, since you haven't yourself. MPJ-DK (talk) 02:45, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

MLW

Hello. Yes, the reddit/In wrestling thing was a nightmare. I didn't give my two cents, but I udnerstand the reason. I think the In wrestling section was a nightmare, I tried to keep it sourced and in shape, but was horrible (things like one time moves, the nicknames...). My personal opinion is we're fuck XD. Admins didn't like the project since we have too much kayfabe and In universe stuff. Fans didn't like us since they think we are to serious and follow too much rules. It's the same behaviour I found in the Impact roster. I will try to include the people in the article. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:10, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

Regarding change on Dash Wilder page

You cited the reference i used as unreliable. CageSideSeats is reliable, even referenced by WWE themselves a couple of times.

User: BluE EaZY anytime you add any content to Wikipedia you need to cite a reliable source. You didn't do that here, here and here. Your block just ended for doing the same thing and it doesn't need to happen again. This edit also was unnecessary. We do not state what move they won the match with, it's trival. You did that to quite a few articles. So check out these will help you:

Cody's match

It is very different than saying MJF has a match. They specifically show him having a match, just blurring out the other face. That means he has a match we just don't know against who yet. When Becky won the rumble, her WM match was put up as against TBA. Last year when Paige announced a tag team tournament and the winner would get a title shot at SummerSlam, it was put up a Bludgeon Brothers vs TBA. This is no different. It is standard practice - Galatz ื’ืืœื™ืฅืฉื™ื—ื” Talk 20:38, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

User: Galatz It shouldn't be standard practice to violate WP: CRYSTAL in our articles about future events. That is why articles on future events/movies/albums get deleted, cause they start becoming too much about speculation. I do not understand why we cannot wait until the match is announced till adding it. There is no rush. They teased Bucks vs Lucha Bros, but we do not have that up either. If you check out the article on WP: CRYSTAL, it is literally what we are doing by having that in the article. StaticVapor message me! 20:44, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
I am very familiar with CRYSTAL. Matches being hinted at are very different than saying a match will happen with opponent TBA. Adding these sort of items do not violate policy. During the baseball playoffs are you saying that after one team qualifies for the World Series, we wait until the second team has also qualified before anything is updated? Or during another recent example, the 2018โ€“19 NFL playoffs. The chargers were known to be the NFC team before the AFC game started. Should the Super Bowl page continued to say TBA vs TBA until the end of the Patriots game? - Galatz ื’ืืœื™ืฅืฉื™ื—ื” Talk 20:54, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
User: Galatz Those are different because they are tournaments. This is just information they are withholding from us. It opens it up to more people adding speculation. That is what I am trying to avoid. StaticVapor message me! 21:50, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

User JuniorDoan's edits

This person seems to believe "Nicknames are not ring names" and comes up with edits like this and this. Is he correct or wrong? or we need a consensus regarding this. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 08:52, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

I was thinking the same thing User:Fylindfotberserk. I'll ask at WP:PW. StaticVapor message me! 16:50, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
Yeah, he might be correct you know. But I've reverted some of his edits since I've watched many matches in which the wrestler's "nickname" is mentioned during announcement and commentary. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:55, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
User: Fylindfotberserk I reverted all his edits. Users at WT:PW seem to agree with what we were thinking. You might want to watch list WP:PW, its talk page is the central location for issues in wrestling articles. StaticVapor message me! 00:42, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Storyline

Which was? And this is an encyclopedia not a fan site where every little detail gets added to the article. MPJ-DK (talk) 23:58, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of facts, so if he has not done anything SIGNIFICANT in 5-6 months then NO, the article should not be updated - you are thinking of cagematch.net which is a database of matches. Oh and let's recap what has been added to the article about his international travels

  • Travel to China, I think the significance of that trip stands on its own
  • Appearing at NJPW's biggest show of the year - significant
  • First tour with NJPW including a title defense - significant
  • Tour where he won the IWGP title - significant
  • First Fantastica Mania tour participation - significant

So not really an indiscriminate list of his tours of Japan. "first" is more significant than "second" or "third" tour, same as "first televised WWE match" is worth mentioning "Second television match" is trivia. MPJ-DK (talk) 00:20, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

User: MPJ-DK I am not saying it is collection of everything that has ever happened. There should be an update of his career if he has been wrestling. Unless he has been sitting on the couch for 6 months? I am sure there is a lot more trimable stuff in the article, but what he has been doing is significant to his career. Anything not notable is added, we remove it. He has been involved in notable programs not just random matches and the article should detail this. You can say "no he hasn't" but that does not make what your saying true. StaticVapor message me! 00:39, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
So nothing from you on what that storyline actually was? and you saying "yes he has" does not make it true either, please proide examples of what you consider "notable programs" please. MPJ-DK (talk) 01:21, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
User: MPJ-DK The last time I detailed a storyline for you, you just dismissed it with negative response. I doubt that anything I can say will sway your opinion. I see at least three feuds covered in these sources [1] [2][3][4][5][6]. With Penta, Ultimo Guerrero and Volador Jr. Obviously this is not the full amount of coverage, I am just giving you an example. My issue is just that there is no updated information for half a year, I do not expect these to be covered in incredible detail.StaticVapor message me! 02:28, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
I see. so no details because you were wrong about Guevara. Then I guess we don't need to discuss this further. MPJ-DK (talk) 08:08, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
User: MPJ-DK No I gave up on Guevara. I really do not have the time to stress over Wikidrama. The project is lucky to have both of us, you don't have to act like this. I provided the reliable sources, need no further discussion until the problem is solved. StaticVapor message me! 17:07, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
You provided sources for "he had matches", that's not the same and until you realize the difference the problem will remain. MPJ-DK (talk) 17:14, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
User: MPJ-DK No I provided proof he was involved in angles. The fact you will not admit it is baffling to me. As I said before, just because you say something does not make it true. StaticVapor message me! 18:41, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
Angles? What are they? Beyond "they had matches" none of these are angles or has led to anything other than "they had matches" MPJ-DK (talk) 19:03, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

GAR

I am disappointed. You should have just told about your concerns rather than asking the admins and then they giving me anonymous advice. However, I admittedly regret my rapid GARs. I think Triple H one is reasonable. Cody and Matt Hardy if you want me to remove them please let me know. And with CM Punk, FAR is different from FARC. I have given my comments to all of them but did not get serious response for improvement. If you want, I can also bring down the FAR to peer review. But honestly, I am shocked to hear that I have been such a liability in WP:PW. I always though everyone behaved properly and were respectful and civil towards one another. Again, if you want, I can leave from there and focus on other projects instead.

I am not here because of my ANI report here, I just here to inform you about this. Most likely I am going to blocked given the support for that, and I leave it completely up to the admins. I hope you continue to contribute in wrestling articles and fight against vandals. If it is the last time me being around, it was a pleasure to work with you. Please let the rest of the PW crew know about it, and I enjoyed working with you people this short time. Everyone were really nice to me there. If there is one advice I can give (you can ignore), you are really a loyal editor, but please don't be afraid to raise concerns directly. Thanks. THE NEW ImmortalWizard(chat) 22:02, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

@ImmortalWizard: I believe you had the best intentions, however the fact you nominated so many so quick, just for me to find out you haven't been editing very long threw up a red flag to me. I did not want to go to you and tell you to stop doing them, I wanted to find out what the best would be in our situation. If you are willing to drop the Hardy and Cody one feel free. With everything going on, you might not want to do any GAR or FAR for awhile. Thank you for the kind words and your interest in professional wrestling articles though.

I opened the discussion in the talk page and, one of the reasons, tag teams like Bullet Club, The Hardys o The Young Bucks had a huge section for the promotions. Any independent wrestler has a huge list of promotions, just look cagematch. Also, we can't agreed a minimun to which promotions to include. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 15:13, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

@Topfool16: Do you have any guideline or discussion based reason why? Or do you feel like you WP: OWN the article? StaticVapor message me! 04:53, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
We have criteria here WP:PW/YEAR - Galatz ื’ืืœื™ืฅืฉื™ื—ื” Talk 18:27, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
@Galatz: I do not see a list of what promotions to include, just that if the event has an article it is forsure notable to be included. It doesn't say events without articles are not to be included. The problem is, just because there is not an article, does not mean it's not notable. Just because we do not have enough people at Wikipedia to create articles on these events, does not make them not notable. If I have to spam each post with 5+ reliable sources I will, but I hope that is not necessary. We should include every major companies events, wether they have a strong presence in North America or not. I am fine with smaller independent companies (HOG) being excluded if need be, but even for the indies we should probably include their major events. As I said though, WXW (biggest company in Germany), DDT (second biggest company in Japan), Rev Pro (among the top in the UK), so I feel like it's just wrong for us to only have WWE/Impact/MLW/ROH/NJPW/AAA/CMLL. Especially when those companies draw more/as much fans as ROH/Impact/MLW. It gives too much focus on what a North American wrestling fan should be interested in, when we should be giving a global look at professional wrestling in 2019. StaticVapor message me! 18:46, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
The event itself would need to be notable to include. If you could find 5 sources for each one that are not WP:ROUTINE I would say that would satisfy the criteria. This is based on WP:NLIST which states Inclusion in lists contained within articles should be determined by WP:SOURCELIST, in that the entries must have the same importance to the subject as would be required for the entry to be included in the text of the article according to Wikipedia policies and guidelines (including Wikipedia:Trivia sections). - Galatz ื’ืืœื™ืฅืฉื™ื—ื” Talk 18:54, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
@Galatz: Okay, I understand where you're coming from, I just found the article incomplete and wanted to improve it. I am adding sources to it now. However, we probably should be including events by notable promotions (having an article), rather then the event having an article. Such as other lists such as years in music, where it matters if the artist releasing the album, not the album having an article. Obviously we wouldn't include unnamed television tapings or weekly shows (Raw, SD, etc.) StaticVapor message me! 20:24, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Paige header

You persist in changing the Paige (wrestler) article section's header from "Smackdown general manager (2018)" to "Smackdown general manager (2018-present)" but the article's text says "the general manager position was quietly removed" and "Paige is to remain around the show but not in the same position". Thus her tenure as Smackdown general manager did NOT extend past 2018 into the present and to say that it has done so is misleading. LE (talk) 05:24, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

@LE: You are correct, but it is just the name of the heading to describe the most notable thing she did during this recent time period. The heading name should be changed if that's what you would like, not removing -present. It makes it seem like she left the company. StaticVapor message me! 05:47, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

My edits

Hey there. I noticed a couple template warnings from you on my talk page. Come on man. I'm not a new editor and I've been involved in WP:PW enough to the point where my username is (hopefully :p) somewhat recognizable. It kinda sucks to see a generic warning template due to a couple of my edits. I've never been a vandal and I understand that I sometimes don't add an edit summary, so please just ask me on my talk page if you question an edit I've made. Thanks. Sekyaw (talk) 00:56, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

@Sekyaw: Sorry if that is the case, I recently returned from a 5 year Wikibreak and I have not seen you comment at WP: PW, so I did not know. The no edit summaries also didn't help lol. As for the edits, the Dolph Ziggler one I feel like the time of his sets is probably important, showing how he started small. Only added The Miz thing because it's interesting fact. Anyways, when you remove content of any kind, you have to give some reason. Just so we know you are not just going crazy removing sourced stuff. As for the R-Truth one, I sent you the message since you updated it (which is great), but you did not add a citation, so that just opens up to someone else 1) removing it or 2) someone complaining about the entire article not having sourcing, which that sentence would be a part of. I am kinda big on WP: V, so I feel like everything that's added to an encyclopedia like this should be cited. StaticVapor message me! 02:22, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

Ken Anderson

He got Divorced in 2015 from Shawn Trebnick. He got married to Anastasia Anderson on January 29, 2018. She is from Australia. He has only 2 children from his first marriage with Shawn. Your facts are incorrect. Check his FB page. He brags about his new wife left and right. He also has a ton of pictures of his 2 children. There are also several pictures of Ken and Anastasia you could use.

@WeAreTR: Hello, when you write on talk pages you can sign your name with ~~~~. I can tell the content in the article was outdated as the sources were from 2009. When you add or change content on Wikipedia you need to cite (WP:CITE) a source (WP:RS) or we have no way of knowing if you're making it up. A lot of people like to add fake stuff to Wikipedia. To clarify, these are not "my facts", I recently just started watching the article for vandalism. I did not add or write the content. If you can find a URL to link to add it to the article.

ROH roster page

I'm not trying to bicker with you or anything, but on the ROH roster page, we don't have to include anything about signing with NJPW. Truth is, lots of ROH guys work with other companies (either as side gigs, or as their primary promotion using ROH as the side gig). I just don't want to start going down rabbit holes and having everyone's outside business to start being included (the exception being if they hold outside titles that ROH acknowledges) - just makes a mess.

Thank you.

Vjmlhds (talk) 17:50, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

@Vjmlhds: Yeah no big deal with me. I'm sure they get paid and have contracts with ROH, but they are only there because NJPW, that's what I was getting at. StaticVapor message me! 17:58, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
I hear you, and I'm not disagreeing with the point itself, just that it opens up cans of worms that would turn this page (and others) in to fusterclucks because people will want to list everybody else's outside action as well. Sometimes less is more. Vjmlhds (talk) 18:03, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
As long as ROH acknowledges one of their guys holding an outside title, then we usually do list it (especially since they've been working with NJPW). Besides, Villain Enterprises is collecting all kinds of gold (ROH Tag, ROH 6-Man, WSW Tag), plus they could scoop up the IWGP Tag Titles at G1 Supercard, and Scurll has both an ROH World Title match at G1 Supercard, AND an NWA World Title match at the Crockett Cup. They could have a bucket load of belts before all is said and done. Vjmlhds (talk) 05:25, 17 March 2019 (UTC)`
Vjmlhds My main problem was you adding WSW to their list of sister promotions with no source. Sure it might be true considering they use ROH guys, but you cannot add that type of content to articles. I would have gave you a templated warning for that change, but you have been here too long for that. However, next time you make unsourced changes to content or give out WP:OR, I am going to drop a warning on your talk page. So please don't take it personal, but I don't want you to be adding content without proper sourcing. There are enough people we have to deal with doing that. StaticVapor message me! 05:42, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
I've removed WSW from the partner paragraph, as I concede that point to you...WSW is a side gig that ROH recognizes, but not a partner per se. Also I wasn't the one who added Ospreay - I didn't even notice he was there...he doesn't belong. Vjmlhds (talk) 18:36, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

The Rascalz.

Apologies, I was somehow logged out making that last revision, thus my IP Address as opposed to my username. However, I feel that referring to Trey by one name is inaccurate as Impact have posted several videos with his kayfabe surname along with them alternating between calling him Trey Miguel and just Trey on commentary. I have provided sources to validate my edits and therefore fail to understand the purpose of starting an edit war. I feel the sources I have provided along with my edits are from valid sources while I feel that you are attempting WP:CrystalBall. Thank you for your time, SkylerLovefist (talk) 08:28, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

@SkylerLovefist: In the past it was both. Now they primarily refer to him as "Trey". Why? Who knows. In the match you linked to via YouTube (the only support you have provided to support your position), the entire match they call him "Trey" as they have been for weeks. Last time he won a match against Ethan Page, the announcer goes "the winner of the match.... Trey." I even cited the official Impact website promoting the YouTube match you linked to, the poster literally says "Moose vs Trey". You clearly do not understand what WP:Crystal even is, as I have no idea why you brought that up. I would suggest reading up on WP:BRD. You made a bold change to an article and someone reverts you. It is on you to discuss your change. By changing it back you started edit warring. I am sorry to have to revert you since you are a 'new' user, but I believe your changes to the article are incorrect. StaticVapor message me! 08:48, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

I'm sorry but I gave you sources which directly contradict what you were saying and an additional link which showed an example of what I was saying with Zachary Wentz. If you watch any given episode of Impact Wrestling their chyrons (the nameplates which show up on-screen) refer to Zachary as simply "Wentz" and Dezmond Xavier as "Dez" while their official names are the full names they are credited with on the article. I've seen edits you have made where you demand sources, I have given you three official Impact Wrestling sources which you are saying are inaccurate. If the company itself is not a reputable source, what is? SkylerLovefist (talk) 09:22, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

@SkylerLovefist: Thanks for ignoring the majority of my message. There are clearly conflicting sources here, pretending that I did not provide any proof for the "Trey" name doesn't help your case. Why are you questioning if I think the company is a reputable source, if I also cited a link from the official website. Anyways I don't mind listing him with the last name. It is his real ring name anyways. StaticVapor message me! 09:58, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

Issan Sumisu (talk) 10:19, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

@Issan Sumisu: In my edit I removed unsourced content not limited to the genres. Then I checked the musical style section and restored the only genre that had two citations in that section. This was since there was no reason at all to have 5 genres in the Infobox. Then instead of just restoring the multiple genres, you reverted the whole thing, restoring unsourced content. This is why you got the message, so I would suggest being more careful with reverts in the future. StaticVapor message me! 18:15, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

John Cena

The line that you wrote says "In 2005, John Cena won his first WWE Championship and subsequently led WWE as its franchise player and public face for the next decade". If John Cena was its franchise player and public face from 2005-2015, that means what I put is not incorrect.

@MisterJay123: I never said you were trying to edit war, I understand why you are trying to add the content.

@Djene94: As far as I could tell, the article made no assertion that the subject was notable (see WP: GNG). The article just lists what he has done, such as release songs.

Drew McIntyre

You misunderstood my edit on the article Drew McIntyre, I did not remove anything important. There was an excessive non notable information of a Raw segment. I just removed it and added a more notable information of his recent WrestleMania 35 performance and my edits were well sourced. Please compare the review and discuss on the talk page and keep the well sourced information I added. Dilbaggg (talk) 13:55, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

@Dilbaggg: Sorry, but there was no misunderstanding. You removed content that was sourced by a reliable source and replaced it with content that was not sourced by a reliable source. See WP:PW/RS for a list of reliable and unreliable sources. Any time you remove sourced content, you need to provide an edit summary. No exceptions. In your edit, removed the mention of defeating Seth Rollins and the second match with Dean. The fact they put him over the Royal Rumble winner and future Universal Champion is by far pretty significant. You then replaced it with this sentence, which is written very editoral-like:

During the match they brawled throughout the arena, the climax saw McIntyre pin Ambrose after a brutal Claymore kick to Ambrose's head while Ambrose was trapped inside the railings.

The parts I bolded are clearly not encyclopedic in tone. Do not worry though, I added back the WM35 match sentence you added. StaticVapor message me! 14:08, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Ok I understand the part, I do apologise for the bolded part for not being encyclopedic, I might have made the same error on Dean Ambrose, but hopefully you include the match. Regarding the second match with Dean, nowhere is every thing included, only the most important issues, or else all the wrestlers articles would be flooded by week by week coverages on what happened on Raw. I fail to see the importance of the second match, as the first one was highly praised. Regardless since they are sourced no harm done. But thank youbfor including back the WrestleMania 35 information. Dilbaggg (talk) 14:14, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

@Dilbaggg: It does not need to be week by week, but this is a "major issue" considering it is a WrestleMania storyline. It seemed odd to have a month (March 11-April 7) gap in events, on top of the wording you used in your sentence and the use of an unreliable source, that resulted in me reverting your edit. Yeah I added the WM35 info back immediately following my revert. Sorry if this was already made clear, but I would suggest using the sites listed as reliable at WP:PW/RS when citing information. This avoids someone having to replace them in the future. StaticVapor message me! 15:22, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

We need to talk

Hi,Static. I think we need to talk. I saw you reverted some of my last editions. As you know, I'm trying to remove no notable stuff, like no notable matches. However, you include them again saying "are notable". As I read in other parts of Wikipedia, one main complain is the excesive detail of storylines and talking about wrestling like a real thing, not a kayfabe thing. I read a lot of artiles about old wrestlers like Vader, Hart and Piper and I see a different style, which I prefer. We talk about them only with keypoints, not every storyline. For example, Mike Kanellis, I think his storyline where he lost some matches is no notable at all. In 5 years, it would be a random line. I don't know what do you think, of course, I know both of us work for a better Wikipedia, but I want to explain my actions. I prefer to keep wrestling as a kayfabe spectacle and using key point, not every minor storyline. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 19:31, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

@HHH Pedrigree: Hey buddy sorry that I had to revert some of your edits. The two articles I can think of are Mike Kanellis and Sanity. For Kanellis, I think the current storyline is important as it ties into him asking for his release. In response to his request, WWE then started utilizing him in a storyline. Noticeably he didn't go on losing forever, he ended up winning a match and now that storyline is over. The way you trimmed it made it seem like he returned after their time off, lost a match and disappeared from TV. What makes it notable is the tie in to the release request news. For Sanity, I am not sure how this edit happened, but you added back the content you removed the first time and I'm assuming accidently removed the sourced content I added. In your first edit you also removed the mention of their debut, which I feel should always be worth mentioning. In your second edit you also added back the listing of members that joined the main roster and the part about the Q&A, as well as,

"Sanity then entered to a tournament to determine the number one contenders for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, losing in the first round to the New Day. On October 16, following the 1000th episode of SmackDown Live, Eric Young started a video series on Instagram detailing the origins of SAnitY and why he started the group. He hinted to his first match in NXT with Samoa Joe being the cause."

I did not think the majority of that was notable. The only events I think is worth noting from April 2018โ€“April 2019, is the debut, the feud with New Day, them being on the Survivor Series team (which is not mentioned) and them being used as Shane's cronies and then being buried by The Miz. Other then that I think a sentence should be in there that says they were largely absent from TV only wrestling on live events. The section on both their main roster careers are fairly short so I don't see much a reason to be worrying about trimming stuff. StaticVapor message me! 21:17, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

The Viking Raiders

Theyโ€™re not called the โ€œWar Machineโ€ that was there previous name. They are now called the โ€œThe Viking Raidersโ€. โ€”ย Preceding unsigned comment added by Bulletclub123 (talk โ€ข contribs) 10:41, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

@Bulletclub123: I am sure that you can read the hidden note that is in the article when you edit it. The infobox and lead must mention the article title first. The article is called War Machine, so do not change it to whatever you want. StaticVapor message me! 16:58, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

That makes no sense. When someone want to search up this team theyโ€™re not going to search โ€œWar Machineโ€ thatโ€™s not what theyโ€™re called anymore. Why keep it if the name is outdated. Just updated the name youโ€™re justification makes no sense. . Bulletclub123 (talk) 17:49, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

@Bulletclub123: That is why we have redirects, it will lead them to this article. These are article guidelines, it would look odd if the article title says War Machine, but the infobox and opening sentence says something else. The reason the article is still titled War Machine is because they achieved their most prominence and success under that name. See WP:COMMONNAME. It honestly should not take longer than a few months until the new name is the common name since they are on Raw now. That is assuming they do not change it like three more times. Just a heads up, you can just edit the section, do not make a new section for each response. StaticVapor message me! 18:03, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

Can you tell me other article which includes this level of detail? We usually write the lead in the same way. Promotions he worked, followed by titles and awards No other has a summarized WWE career. Not CM Punk, that is a FA. it is necessary to include a minor feud against Dream or a short lived team with Ricochet? With leads like this, it would be huge in a few years. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 21:10, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

@HHH Pedrigree: You might have skimmed it before, but just read WP:LEAD. We are summarizing the article in it's current state. In its current state, 80% of it is about his WWE career. So the lead should significantly cover that. The way you described leads in BLPs is not how they are supposed to be written. They are supposed to summarize the article and not just list awards and accomplishments. You should try and expand some of the hundreds of wrestler bios that have two sentence leads, I have had to tag a lot of articles that have poor leads. I trimmed like half the amount of what you trimmed and it looks fine now. StaticVapor message me! 21:26, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
I highly doubt this is a good written lead. WP:LEAD says "The lead section should briefly summarize the most important points covered in an article" and "Recent events affecting a subject are kept in historical perspective; most recent is not necessarily most notable". I highly doubt, from an historical perspective, his match against Dream and title matches for the RAW and SD tag team titles are notable. With this lead, we will change the lead every few months. If something isn't notable, don't write it. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 10:31, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
Yes so right now it covers the most significant parts of his current career. I removed the feud with Dream, but as of right now his title matches at PPVs that include WrestleMania, are definitely among the most significant exposure he has gotten. StaticVapor message me! 04:44, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

Heights and weights

Not trying to cause any misinformation by my edits on wrestling stats sorry if you feel that's the case. But I notice you claim WWE as a reliable source when in fact many of their "official" stats are questionable when you compare them to other wrestling sites. I will refrain from making any further edits until I can confirm they match up with multiple credible sources. Though I believe you're misguided in believing the WWE official site is the most accurate source of wrestling stats. Dig a little deeper and you will notice a lot of their stats are outdated and not as accurate as you may believe. โ€”ย Preceding unsigned comment added by Hunterb212 (talk โ€ข contribs)

@Hunterb212: Thank you for the well-mannered response. I just dropped you the message to explain since others besides me contested your edits. You are not wrong in your analysis of wwe.com, I agree that it is outdated a lot of the time. Just keep in mind the infobox says, "billed height/weight" and according to their site this is what they are billed as. Just to clarify for you, you can find out what a reliable source is by clicking WP:RS and WP: Identifying reliable sources. Also WP:PW/RS is a collection of what is and what is not a reliable source for wrestling articles. The labeling of reliable and unreliable was determined through consensus of multiple editors.

Impact roster

Hi. Can you help me with the impact roster? Its amazing how the article is edited with every tv taping. OR,Crydtalball, SYNTH... Di you think the article needs a full time protection? HHH Pedrigree (talk) 09:59, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

@HHH Pedrigree: If they keep edit waring then yeah. In my opinion, I am fine with Mitchell being included since he has been on television consistently for a long time. He was only recently removed by another disruptive editor. As for Havok, if she's not consistently appearing we don't know forsure if she's sticking around. So unless she is at like the next two tapings or gets moved to the active roster on the website, I am with leaving her off. I am not going to edit it right away, and you shouldn't either, because there is clearly an active edit war going on and it won't look good on you. StaticVapor message me! 10:20, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

Brock Lesnar

Hi, can you enlighten be on this change. If he is still part of WWE, shouldn't we be using WWE.com? - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:25, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

@Fylindfotberserk: If we get lucky and a reliable source PWI/WON/Fightful/PWTorch actually reports a height or weight we should take them over the primary source. It is not very likely that this will happen, but if it does we should probably take them over WWE.com (since as that other user said, they do not update it very often). For all we know, they probably have not updated it since he redebuted in 2012. StaticVapor message me! 20:12, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
Actually, last time I saw him wrestle, he was billed at 286 lbs. I believe WWE.com is just reproducing what's being announced in the ring. Upto 2005, he used to be billed at 295 lbs and that was also in the WWE official website. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 20:18, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
@Fylindfotberserk: If that was a match from this year, I support it changing back to the WWE.com source. The website is not always giving what they announce in the ring though, for the record. For example, I was watching an NXT Takeover this year and they announced Velvanteen Dream as 10-20 pounds different than what is on the website. StaticVapor message me! 22:26, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

Becky Lynch

I moved Becky to Raw because WWE.com lists her on both the Raw and SD superstar page, and to balance out the pics on the WWE personnel article.

I would not have done this move if WWE.com didn't list her on both shows. I know what her bio says, but they only list her as SD Champion when she is "Becky 2 Belts", so you can't go strictly by that.

Mickie James

Hi there, I just wanted to discuss the subheadings for Mickie James's "Return to WWE" section. I will admit my edits were not great, I do believe saying "NXT appearance and storyline with Alexa Bliss" and then "Heel turn and reunion with Bliss" sounds a little redundant. I know it's a little hard because of how wacky (quite disappointing if you ask me) her recent run has been. She's basically been attached at the hip to Alexa since she came back in some form of fashion which is why I believe it should be one section. And saying "heel turn" I believe isn't necessary since she started as a heel. But I do undersrand that my "Singles Competition" subheading was not great since she hasn't done anything now that she's on SmackDown and away from Bliss. I just wanted to talk about possible ways to improve it or if it would be best to leave as is until she does something of note in the near future. Thank you. Sir Wrestler (talk)

@Sir Wrestler: The problem with your heading change was that the first and third headings were super tiny, and the middle heading took up everything else. It needs to be more balanced. I also do not like a heading that just says "NXT", it makes it seem like she actually had a run there, which she did not. It was one match according to the article. The reason heel turn is there, is because she started as heel, turned face and then at the time that section begins, she turned heel again. Also, mentioning Bliss twice is not redundant since it says "storyline with", this could mean alliance and/or feud, which it does. Then the next heading says reunion, so if your reading along it makes sense. Thanks for the message. StaticVapor message me! 19:00, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
Like I said, wasn't perfect from my end but it is what it is. I probably could've said something like teaming and feuding with Alexa Bliss since they have been with each other nonstop but it still would've been the same result. I do think there's something to fix still and maybe if more happens with her while she's on SmackDown, we can move some thing around if possible; but it's not worth losing sleep over (I already have enough things for that lol). Thanks for the discussion! Sir Wrestler (talk)

Please refrain from reverting my edits without first consulting me, as I find it disrespectful. I have again changed the wording to one that is less messy, this time omitting any mention of the current status of the relationship. The engagement was revealed far before March 2018, so that was inaccurate. Also, the "reports" you speak of are nothing more than rumors from unreliable sources loaded with inconsistencies.

@Catholic Laitinen: I do not have to consult you to revert your improper edit. Do you have a source it was mentioned in that is older than the current one? We only write articles based on what we can confirm with current sources. I actually just found when they got engaged so I am going to change that. I have been reverting people that have removed the mention of engagement or tried to say it ended. We do have reliable sources that reported the news, so I changed it to say that they were engaged at that time.

NPR Newsletter No.18

Hello STATicVapor,

WMF at work on NPP Improvements

Niharika Kohli, a product manager for the growth team, announced that work is underway in implementing improvements to New Page Patrol as part of the 2019 Community Wishlist and suggests all who are interested watch the project page on meta. Two requested improvements have already been completed. These are:

  • Allow filtering by no citations in page curation
  • Not having CSD and PRODs automatically marked as reviewed, reflecting current consensus among reviewers and current Twinkle functionality.
Reliable Sources for NPP

Rosguill has been compiling a list of reliable sources across countries and industries that can be used by new page patrollers to help judge whether an article topic is notable or not. At this point further discussion is needed about if and how this list should be used. Please consider joining the discussion about how this potentially valuable resource should be developed and used.

Backlog drive coming soon

Look for information on the an upcoming backlog drive in our next newsletter. If you'd like to help plan this drive, join in the discussion on the New Page Patrol talk page.

Ric Flair

DUDE, Hi, Much Love as a friend, Can all of U if U have Facebook, message Me? Ron Hutchinson himself said all this, so did "Killer" Sam Sheppard a few days before he, Sheppard, announced he was retiring when he said a funny 1979 joke about something that happened on an airplane that Ric Flair vouch for happening. โ€”ย Preceding unsigned comment added by TelleyTell (talk โ€ข contribs) 01:09, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Recently you did not do that in This edit and this edit. Your final warning was for this one. Do you think it is okay to say two people are dating without providing any proof?

Record labels in navboxes

Please note that it is not appropriate to add record labels or other companies in navboxes, unless there is some intrinsic link to the artist, i.e. they founded the label or brand. Record labels usually have large rosters, so there is no unique tie to the artist, therefore, per WP:NAVBOX and WP:UNDUE they are not appropriate links. This is a long standing precedent, so please stop re-adding. (Also note how record label rosters are not appropriate for navboxes for the label). The same goes for non-artist specific compilation albums. Submitting a single track to a compilation album is only a tangential tie, and probably isn't usually even worth a mention on a discography page, yet alone a navbox. --woodensuperman 08:08, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

@Woodensuperman: All I know is when I edited 2010โ€“2014 and when I came back recently, record labels appeared in navboxes. Can you link me to a discussion or style guide/guideline that says to exclude them? I saw nothing on NAVBOX. If not then, I would think you would need project consensus for mass changes like this, since it appears they have been in these navboxes for about 10 years. In my opinion it is not undue weight. I could see including international distributors like Interscope Records or Republic Records undue, but the vanity labels such as Grand Hustle Records or Rebel Rock Entertainment not, since they have small rosters. In regards to your comment about compilation albums, the album in question is not a random compilation he has one track on. It was more of a collaborative album by the record label Shady Records, and the artist appears on a third of the songs on the first disc. It is just identified as a compilation album due to the second disc being a greatest hits album. StaticVapor message me! 11:58, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
As far as I am aware, they have never been acceptable for the reasons I mention above. Here's precedent regarding the artists in the label navbox, it makes sense the other way around. --woodensuperman 12:06, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
@Woodensuperman: That doesn't explain why these labels have been in the navboxes for ten years. How can you say something is wrong when it has been there for this long? You shouldn't continue making mass changes without consensus. StaticVapor message me! 13:19, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
There is longstanding consensus for this. Look at all the other musical artist navboxes outside of this narrow field, and you will see how this system is applied throughout. No exception should be made. --woodensuperman 13:32, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

MITB

A single edit does not disruptive editing make.

Kinda loose with the terminology there.

You are not assuming good faith on my part when you throw out verbiage like that - not cool.

I removed the template because I didn't think it was warranted...truthfully, I think some people are too quick triggered with the templates, and if someone were REALLY anal enough, they could slap a template on EVERY SINGLE article.

That's why I said it was in the "eye of the beholder".

That's my $0.02.

Vjmlhds (talk) 23:47, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

@Vjmlhds: Honestly I do not want you to get blocked, so I choose against doing a ANI thread following this. You gotta stop with these type of edits and your constant use of OR regarding what is going on with storylines and roster members. You cannot remove maintenance templates without fixing the problem or addressing it. Saying "oh this is just one person's opinion" is not a valid reason. It is disruptive since it is the type of edits you always make. Honestly after reading those sections, I thought damn, I wasted my time paying attention to the product. Why would anyone need to watch since they can read the whole plot on Wikipedia. I see no reason why everything the happened between MITB and the next PPV needs to be mentioned on the page. It is total WP:FANCRUFT. StaticVapor message me! 01:13, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
Well, I took the time to trim a good chunk of fat off the article - hopefully this fits the bill. Vjmlhds (talk) 21:32, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

Chris Brown

Hi, regarding the revert I just thought that the lead was getting overpopulated with information that's already in the article such as "Brown's fourth album F.A.M.E. (2011) became his first to top the Billboard 200; it spawned the singles "Yeah 3x", "Look at Me Now", and "Beautiful People"" which is also in the separate album article. Also, I took out the "Chris Brown at SPAC in Saratoga New York in 2015." image because you can't actually see him in the image and most of the image is just the crowd; it's not the best picture to use don't you think? 8eatle (talk) 15:56, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

@8eatle: Thanks for the message. In this edit you removed an entire sourced section without explaining why, I also thought the moving of personal life heading was not proper. I did not really review the moving around of the images, but it looks like you moved around a lot so you probably should have explained why in the edit summary. StaticVapor message me! 18:21, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

With the "Personal life", I've seen in other articles that "Legal issues" and "Personal life" are in separate paragraphs. 8eatle (talk) 08:09, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

@8eatle: That could possibly add WP:UNDUE weight to the legal issues, I think the main heading with the multiple subheadings looks fine. I also assume it has been like that for awhile. Again my main issues of your edit was blanking a section of the article and changing the lead/moving or deleting images without properly explaining in your edit summary. From now on I would suggest using accurate edit summaries and if your gonna make big changes, maybe do multiple edits with a specific edit summary explaining the change. StaticVapor message me! 18:45, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

There was no Vandalism

I followed all rules and used WWE official stats which are considered most accurate here on Wikipedia. You will be reported to moderators if you continue to make unwarranted threats against me for following standard Wikipedia procedures. Thank you.

As perย WP:PW, the WWE official stats are considered to be the most reliable, so WWE.com is superior Hunterb212 (talk) 18:42, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

@Hunterb212: The vandalism warning was just due to there not being a lvl4 warning for disruptive editing. What you are doing is disruptive editing. Two editors gave you messages awhile ago and now your back at it. What makes WWE more reliable than NJPW? The NJPW source is much more recent. WWE doesn't update height/weight for people that do not work for the company, and Cody has not been there for 4 years. I explained this in my first edit summary when I reverted you, however you just changed it back without saying anything. That is disruptive editing. WP:BRD says that you discuss whenever someone challanges one of your edits. Especially when multiple people have talked to you about changing these before. WWE.com is good source, but if there is anything more recent that also qualifies as a reliable source, then obviously best to use that. StaticVapor message me! 18:52, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

And you are now engaging in edit warring as outlined in WP:EW. As stated WWE official stats are considered most accurate, it's the first site listed in sources as per WP:PW. You had no reason to make the edit in the first place when the source cited is already known to be reliable. The next step I will report you to administrators for edit warring and making unnecessary edits because of clear bias without legitimate need to improve accuracy. Hunterb212 (talk) 19:02, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

@Hunterb212: I do not know what part of the source is outdated you do not understand. Why use something from 2016 or earlier, when we have something from 2017 or sooner. Anyways, I already responded to your far fetched accusations on your talk page. Can you please keep this conversation on one or the other. Also remember WP:BOOMARANG. StaticVapor message me! 08:39, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

I see you changed it back and I'm alright with that, I won't resort to being petty and edit war with you. But I did notice when you click on the link you cited the site is in Japanese and nowhere is Cody Rhodes height clearly listed. If you look at the height on WWE.com it is clearly listed in English and it says 6'2". Just saying. Hunterb212 (talk) 02:31, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

@Hunterb212: I checked out the source and looks like the link was dead, so I found an archived link. They listed him as 185 cm, which is 6 foot 1 inch. StaticVapor message me! 04:11, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

Well that is probably actually closer to his real height as they tend to exaggerate in billed stats anyway. Fair enough, and just for the record I never intended to vandalize. I do actually want to contribute in a constructive manner when possible on here. Since I've been made aware of the rules on editing and citing sources I am doing my best to follow them. Hunterb212 (talk) 04:18, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

@Hunterb212: As I said before, your edits were closer to disruptive editing not vandalism. The templated message just used that wording. The main problem with your editing pattern was just changing it back, without saying anything in the WP:Edit summary, when I had a valid concern. Also do not jump to conclusions saying that someone has a bias, I just thought NJPW would be best to use since it would be more recent. I think you have good intentions. Just do not worry too much about strictly following wwe.com, if a reliable source or a different company says another thing we can use that if it is more recent or "factual".

Warnings

Hi, I am aware that my history is available. I removed the previous warnings because you're allowed to if you take them on board. Also, the only "serious" warnings I got were from FlightTime who I tried explain to that I actually did do what he accused me of not doing (adding content with a source). You can check my Talk history for yourself to read the conversation I had with FlightTime. I hope you don't think I'm trying to hide anything. 8eatle (talk) 19:10, 20 June 2019 (UTC)

@8eatle: Sorry if it bothered you. I just saw that you were still getting warnings, after getting a final one.

New Page Review newsletter July-August 2019

Hello STATicVapor,

WMF at work on NPP Improvements

More new features are being added to the feed, including the important red alert for previously deleted pages. This will only work if it is selected in your filters. Best is to 'select all'. Do take a moment to check out all the new features if you have not already done so. If anything is not working as it should, please let us know at NPR. There is now also a live queue of AfC submissions in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to review AfCs, but bear in mind that NPP is an official process and policy and is more important.

QUALITY of REVIEWING

Articles are still not always being checked thoroughly enough. If you are not sure what to do, leave the article for a more experienced reviewer. Please be on the alert for any incongruities in patrolling and help your colleagues where possible; report patrollers and autopatrolled article creators who are ostensibly undeclared paid editors. The displayed ORES alerts offer a greater 'at-a-glance' overview, but the new challenges in detecting unwanted new content and sub-standard reviewing do not necessarily make patrolling any easier, nevertheless the work may have a renewed interest factor of a different kind. A vibrant community of reviewers is always ready to help at NPR.

Backlog

The backlog is still far too high at between 7,000 and 8,000. Of around 700 user rights holders, 80% of the reviewing is being done by just TWO users. In the light of more and more subtle advertising and undeclared paid editing, New Page Reviewing is becoming more critical than ever.

Move to draft

NPR is triage, it is not a clean up clinic. This move feature is not limited to bios so you may have to slightly re-edit the text in the template before you save the move. Anything that is not fit for mainspace but which might have some promise can be draftified - particularly very poor English and machine and other low quality translations.

Notifying users

Remember to use the message feature if you are just tagging an article for maintenance rather than deletion. Otherwise articles are likely to remain perma-tagged. Many creators are SPA and have no intention of returning to Wikipedia. Use the feature too for leaving a friendly note note for the author of a first article you found well made or interesting. Many have told us they find such comments particularly welcoming and encouraging.

PERM

Admins are now taking advantage of the new time-limited user rights feature. If you have recently been accorded NPR, do check your user rights to see if this affects you. Depending on your user account preferences, you may receive automated notifications of your rights changes. Requests for permissions are not mini-RfAs. Helpful comments are welcome if absolutely necessary, but the bot does a lot of the work and the final decision is reserved for admins who do thorough research anyway.

Other news

School and academic holidays will begin soon in various places around the Western world. Be on the lookout for the usual increase in hoax, attack, and other junk pages.

Our next newsletter might be announcing details of a possible election for co-ordinators of NPR. If you think you have what it takes to micro manage NPR, take a look at New Page Review Coordinators - it's a job that requires a lot of time and dedication.

@HygorHubner: Please explain to me where the terms "face" and "worked shoot promo" appear in the cited sources from WWE.com. That is what WP:OR or more closely WP:SYNTH is. Sure he may be a babyface now, but find a reliable source that specifically says that. Don't just add insider terms and designations to things if you do not have a cited source to support it. StaticVapor message me! 00:42, 11 July 2019 (UTC)

HygorHubner (talk) 00:58, 11 July 2019 (UTC)

@HygorHubner: See you cannot add stuff just because it seemed to be a certain way. You have to cite reliable third party sources (PWI, Wrestling Observer, Fightful, Sports Illustrated, Prowrestling.net, etc.) that recognizes that it was a face/heel turn or a worked shoot promo. Sorry for the lvl 4 final warning, it was because of the previous thread and the multiple times I have linked you to WP:SYNTH/WP:OR.

Jushin Thunder Liger is Jushin Liger is Jyushin Thunder Lyger

It's like the difference between Greg Valentine and Greg "The Hammer" Valentine. Or Macho Man Randy Savage. Nothing changes, just rolls off the tongue, like Yushin "Thunder" Okami. Kishin Liger and Keiichi Yamada, whole other deals, but if he's a dragon in a Power Ranger suit, his ringname alone works fine. In 30 years, nobody has confused him with anyone else, like Superstar Graham or Stunning Steve or Hurricane Helms. But if I'm wrong and you know it matters, that's fine, too. I won't fight for it.

Maybe just include the paragraph about the 2019 indy match in the section about his (alleged) six-year year indy career since the butthole surfing incident, kill two birds with one running thunderbomb, so to speak? Wrestlers "retire" all the time, and this one started itching again in the very same breath, even angling for Riddle by name. You don't have to be Batman Tony Marino or Rockin' Robin to get a whiff of Fishman, see? Think about it, and have a nice Sunday! InedibleHulk (talk) 11:58, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

@InedibleHulk: Hey what's up what's up. I changed it since that is what he is currently billed as, according to his article he used to not go with the Thunder, and now he does. At least in my experience his common name is also with the Thunder, it looks weird without the Thunder part to me. Since this is his "last" match, I think it fits good there. Rather then the section just saying, "In July he announced his retirement. StaticVapor message me! 17:17, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
The paragraph can say exactly what it does now, even be a subsection called Retirement (if you believe). It'd just look less weird than attached to a WWE section, since it had nothing to do with WWE and everything to do with 2019. If I could cut and paste, I would. Lyger's article is a mess of confusion, like many wrestling bios; the Thunder bit just came along when he was introduced to English audiences who didn't know what Jyushin meant, and stuck ever since. Exact same character. Like the polar opposite of Brian Adams, who had four distinct personas named Crush to set him apart from the singer, or Steve Borden and his two Stings. InedibleHulk (talk) 01:04, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
@InedibleHulk: I didn't even see it attached lol, I fixed that. Hmm didn't even know that, not to familiar with WCW and older NJPW. I have just always known him as JTL, and seen that as the common name in sources. StaticVapor message me! 21:22, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
No doubt it's infectious, perhaps even more redundant but seemingly natural than Pretty Paul, Handsome Harley, Gorgeous George, Jumpin' Jim, B. Brian and The Original Sheik combined. Fine work, as far as deceptive carny mindgames go.
Imagine if you will another universe where a simple mistranslation error led to to SmackDown's #1 Announcer not being Sho "Ichi" Kung Funaki, but a racist short-haired bully version of the cosplayer formerly known as Justin Blunderhawk Liger, joined by Taz with two Zs and Michaela Cola, a goateed woman who only ever says "hai" after everything JBL says. The Man Called Bradshaw still technically exists, having adopted the fabled stringy mop and becoming known in the IWC Hall of Fame as JBL II, before being killed in the ring by a inverted sitout Vertebronko from his archrival Black Blunderhawk II in 29 ADD (Anno Deuce and Domino).
Real life version of whassupwitdat seems a bit less scary and confusing now, doesn't it? I find it helps, anyway. Good journey, Big Van Vapor! InedibleHulk (talk) 06:28, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Re: my edit to the Impact Wrestling personnel page

Regarding my edit to the List of Impact Wrestling personnel page... I only adjusted the wording of Bhupinder Singh's status to match the article that was already cited. The "Assigned to OVW" was news to me, so I followed the listed source and read the article. It didn't say anything about Bhupinder Singh being assigned to OVW - it does however say that he is currently training in Windsor, Ontario. I just adjusted the text to reflect what was actually noted in the source.Dahumorist (talk) 05:05, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Lacey Evans' ring name and her sister's name

I noticed that you've reverted my edit mentioning the fact that Lacey Evans' ring name is identical to her sister's maiden name, with the justification that it was unsourced. That information does in fact appear about halfway through the referenced article, in the following sentence:

"So they made it Lacey Evans, which was my sisterโ€™s legal name up until the time she got married."

The ref tag existed prior to my edit, and I failed to make any mention of that information's existence in my edit summary, so I understand the confusion.

They 1) save time on linking later and 2) they entice newer editors to create articles on notable topics. A red link should only been unlinked if the subject is likely to never, ever be notable. I have strong doubts that would be the case with Shota unless he plans on quitting wrestling tomorrow. StaticVapor message me! 06:10, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
There are lots of wrestlers who are not notable, have worked in big promotions, and wrestled 20-30 years. Working in big promotions won't necessarily make you notable. I don't have to ask if you went through all articles and red linked his name as you did not. If the article on him gets created, you're going to have to link to it because you didn't red link beforehand if you don't do it now. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 23:21, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
@Fishhead2100: See WP:REDLINK. Don't remove them. I am not sure what you are trying to convince me of. WP:REDLINK was written for a reason. StaticVapor message me! 17:21, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
You are assuming I'm going to remove them. If you are going to red link one or two articles, you might as well do them all. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 18:01, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
@Fishhead2100: Sorry for the assumption, I thought you were against them for some reason. I try to red link him whenever I see his name, searching for every mention is not necessary now. I'm just trying to save whoever creates the article down the line some time. StaticVapor message me! 19:14, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

@Gatorboy: Why? You don't want his article to show the actual date of his birthday? It will not be changed. Next time, make an edit request on the article talk page of protected articles. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 23:24, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
@Gatorboy: Do you have reliable sources to prove the current birthday is not correct? StaticVapor message me! 17:23, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

His correct birthday is 7/27/69. His wife Stephanie McMahon even tweeted a birthday wish for his 50th Birthday back on 7/27.

Thus I also say that I will never change content or add informations which will be illigal. Thanks for writing me

Nothing sinister was intended, just trying to tighten things up.

Vjmlhds (talk) 18:06, 3 August 2019 (UTC)

@Vjmlhds: I don't see how removing somewhat important things without saying why is "tightening up". Anyways I just wanted to make sure your not gonna go back to making changes however you please, because that is how this edit came off to me. StaticVapor message me! 18:14, 3 August 2019 (UTC)
The removing of the brands was done in error - my intent was to simply add in the 24/7 Title, and make the lede as "lean and mean" as possible. Again, nothing of bad faith was intended. Vjmlhds (talk) 18:23, 3 August 2019 (UTC)

Sheamus

Hi, I only removed that name because it's the exact same name and spelling of his current ring name. I don't see why we need both if they're exactly the same. I'm sorry about not providing an edit summary, I forgot to include one. Dakota.952 (talk) 21:43, 3 August 2019 (UTC)

@Dakota.952: The previous ring name was not just the last name, it included Sheamus as the first name. It is incorrect being listed that he performed just as the last name. StaticVapor message me! 21:46, 3 August 2019 (UTC)

NJPW G1

KENTA can still win A block after night. From NJPW official site: "KENTA must win, and beat ZSJ in his last match, with Okada losing to EVIL and Ibushi, while Ibushi loses against ZSJ." [11] KENTA would win the block as he holds tiebreakers over Ibushi and EVIL.

Makes sense, thanks for this. I thought tying with Okada, would mean he still loses since Okada beat him. That is why I restored the other IPs edit. StaticVapor message me! 09:44, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

Help

The changes I make are correct, in some cases I have verified the info from the actual person themself by reading an interview or even their verified twitter page. I donโ€™t appreciate the threats and donโ€™t understand how to cite sources on the mobile version of wiki. Please help and stop threatening me. The info I have been adding is correct. โ€”ย Preceding unsigned comment added by MCM0530 (talk โ€ข contribs) 23:50, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

@MCM0530: I am not threatening you, the blue links in the messages I have sent you would help. Please see WP:CITE and WP: Referencing for beginners. Citing sources is the same on mobile as it is on a computer, just grab the URL from the reliable website and put it between <ref></ref> those ref tags.

AAA Removal on MLW page. MLW & The Crash

I removed AAA because MLW announced they inked a deal with The Crash https://mlw.com/2019/08/12/mlw-and-the-crash-lucha-libre-form-strategic-alliance/. โ€”ย Preceding unsigned comment added by Bigkhrisdogg (talk โ€ข contribs)

@Bigkhrisdogg: Okay and what does that have to do with AAA? Does the source say that they no longer have a deal with AAA? AAA and Crash share talent too, so there is no rivalry there that would get in the way of anything. Don't make changes like that unless you know forsure that it is accurate, don't just guess.

NXT

Can I pick your brain for a minute?

Assuming the rumors are true and NXT gets a 2-hour prime time show on USA, should it then be considered a main roster brand instead of a stepping stone?

It would give NXT pretty much equal footing with Raw and SD as it will have a prime time spot on a major network, and it would be hard to say that people would be getting "called up" from NXT should they move to Raw or SD when the yellow brand itself is on prime time national mainstream TV and not "hidden away" on the WWE Network - basically, it would be a lateral move at this point (just like now if someone went from Raw/SD to NXT).

Just wanted your 2ยข on the matter.

Vjmlhds (talk) 14:56, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

@Vjmlhds: We would really have to wait and see how they treat it moving forward. It could change, but it couild also remain the same. I would be against calling it a developmental brand moving forward though, instead just calling it the NXT brand. Especially before calling it equal with the main roster, we would need multiple sources or WWE calling it that. StaticVapor message me! 22:28, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
I'm with you there as far as waiting until the announcement is made. I'm just thinking ahead, because you know when the announcement is made, USA will play up NXT as the greatest thing since sliced bread (as any network would do with their shows) - can't see them as portraying it as beneath Raw, and HHH himself calls NXT a third global touring brand. But, we'll get there when we get there. Vjmlhds (talk) 22:35, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
@Vjmlhds: Like they have to say that it is on the same level and that it is the "main roster". My guess is they will still present it as something different and they will stay true to what NXT has already been. StaticVapor message me! 02:31, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
For now, it's a moot point since there was no announcement. But we'll see what happens when/if we get there. Vjmlhds (talk) 03:06, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
@Vjmlhds: Was there really no announcement? Wow lol. Honestly this is all stupid to me, WWE putting the indie-darling show on Network TV just to counter program AEW. Because WWE has to be the only wrestling in the world (eye roll). StaticVapor message me! 08:37, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
Well, now it's officially official. What do you think? Sure sounds like they're putting NXT in the same class with Raw and SD. Vjmlhds (talk) 14:00, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
@Vjmlhds: โ€œThe move to USA Network provides an opportunity to deepen our relationship with NBCUniversal and further build the NXT brand,โ€ said Vince McMahon, WWE Chairman & CEO. โ€œOver the long term, our goal is to develop a following that can be monetized to the same level as our flagship programs, Raw and SmackDown.โ€ Does not say main roster and does not say equal.
