I was going to get your opinion first. Maybe it should be left to Beer Money Inc. Because we couldn't see what was wrote on the shirts. They were referred to as Beer Money Inc. Why does TNA do stupid crap like make shirts. I love TNA but come on. These segments they do: Angle on a date and Storm and Roode acting like idiots but doing entertaining promos.--WillC 02:43, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
The shirts said Beer Money and the name was shown as such on a on screen graphic. JakeDHS07 03:09, 4 July 2008 (UTC)JakeDHS07
Yeah I agree. I saw it later.--WillC 03:19, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

The C-Class rating has been introduced. The rating falls between articles that are more than Start-Class, but less than B-Class.
Immediately put into effect, our project has begun use of the List-Class rating. The List-Class rating is for list articles that are of less quality than B-Class articles.
Our goal is to get the number of Stub-Class articles below 600. The current count is 631. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone could help expand and/or source an article or two. A list has been placed on the stub article subpage of stub articles of well-known wrestlers that should be fairly easy to improve.
As I'm sure you noticed above, this is the 20th edition of the WikiProject Professional wrestling newsletter! It has come a long way since the first issue, and I'm sure it will only improve from here. I'd like to thank everyone reading this for continuing to read the newsletter, biweekly.
Also, lastly I'd like to thank Misza13, for sending the newsletter out for us, though his bot. His bot has to be the most important part of the process, because without it, the newsletter would not get sent to project members.
I know that's a long list, but they all deserve recognition for their hard work towards the newsletter. So again, thank you to that list of people, and thank you to all of the newsletter's biweekly readers. If you have an questions, comments, or feedback about the newsletter, remember those links below.
Per this edit and the discussion here, date linking is not mandatory in articles. This mainly applies to the project's pay-per-view expanded articles. Please take this regulation in notice and apply it to the project's expanded pay-per view articles.
New parameters have been added to the {{Infobox Wrestling event}} template, for the discussion explaining these parameters, see the discussion here

Orphaned non-free media (Image:ECWtitleJuly2008.jpg)
Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
Thanks for uploading Image:ECWtitleJuly2008.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:10, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on SummerSlam (2008). Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. You have reverted three edits with no consensus, if you have a problem with the new format, discuss it and do not make changes on your own without a community discussion. One more revert and you will be reported to WP:AIV.SRX 03:23, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
It's okay, just watch the history page next time to see the history and reversions of the page to avoid edit wards and breaking the 3RR rule. It is not entirely your fault as you were unaware of the new format, which gives me an idea to discuss at WT:PW. Happy editing. :)--SRX 03:29, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
No no, it was to add a talk page banner explaining the new format, instead of IP's and New Users always complaining about new things. But I will add your idea to the newsletter, I was going to originally add it, but I forgot to. Thanks.SRX 03:37, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
For RfA, you need to have at least 10,000 edits and need to be aware of most of Wikipedia's policies.SRX 03:46, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
Ha, well just contribute to Wikipedia more often, I got my 10,000 edits in half a year.SRX 03:53, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
I understand. Sure go ahead. No I am not, and don't plan to be one unless I am nominated, because issues with Users in the past would hurt my nomination, but thanks for your support :)SRX 04:04, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
I saw your question to SRX about when you joined. I saw in your contributions that your first edit was April 8 2006. That is either the day you joined or close to it.--WillC 06:59, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
It's kind of complicated, what you are going to have to do is go to User:SRX/Title, User:SRX/Browse Bar, and copy and paste the formatting there. I would like some credit if you use it :)SRX 12:57, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

I have 3 granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks.

Well mainly the Rey Mysterio video needs to go. I've seen that video on Youtube and I'm sure that should go. The Owen Hart picture is from Raw is Owen, I believe. Now the ones on his talk page I have on WT:PW for someone to place them up for deletion. I've never placed any image up for deletion so I don't know how. Also I don't want to learn at 4 am.--WillC 07:43, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
He technically has the right to remove the notices for image deletion. Now on the vandalism warns he loses those rights. If he removes the deletion discussion templates on the images then he should be nominated for a block.--WillC 07:50, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Okay, after I tell him that he should not remove the notices, if he removes them then he should be placed up for a block nom.--WillC 07:53, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

You don't write on my talk page informing me that there is no description. Obviously I know there is no description.

A tag has been placed on File:ECWChampionship.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:File:ECWChampionship.jpg|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

Seems 75.44.212.64 deleted it at 02:24, 24 February 2009, for no reason. There is a lot of editing on that page at present - and quite a few vandals - I reverted one 24h later, that deleted the college section and placed "hey went to college at mommy basebasment" - that was obvious, where just a small bit gets deleted (and nothing added), then it's hard to say (unless one is an expert on that page) if it is a vandal or a useful edit - Wikipedia rules say that one has to assume good faith unless proven otherwise.

Consider expanding an article from the project's list of stub articles and nominating it at Did You Know?. The project's goal is to have 100 total DYKs by the end of the year, and we are currently on 74.
When editing an article, use the edit summary to provide a brief summary of your edits; this helps users understand what was changed in the article.
All Wikipedia articles should be written from a neutral point-of-view, representing fairly, and as far as possible without bias, all significant views that have been published by reliable sources.
The project's New Year's Resolutions are listed here, and a list of topics that are close to Good topic status is listed here. Consider helping by achieving an aim listed or by improving an article on the Topics list to Good Article status.
From April 10 to May 10, WP:PW will be hosting the first Professional Wrestling Stub Reduction Drive. Details can be found here and all memebers are encouraged to get involved.

This section is intended to warn users about potential targets of vandalism and speculation: professional wrestling events from major promotions for the months of April and May.
Refer to WP:NC during the process of renaming an article, if a name does not adhere to these guidelines, be bold and move the article to the correct target name. If there is a naming conflict, follow the steps to a resolution or discuss the move on the project's talk page.
Avoid overlinking in an article. If a subject has been linked once already in the body paragraphs, there is no need to link it again. Lists are the only exceptions to this policy.
The lead section of an article should introduce the subject and summarize the entire article's contents. The size of the lead will depend on the size of the article.
Thanks for uploading Image:ECWtitleJuly2008.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on SummerSlam (2008). Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. You have reverted three edits with no consensus, if you have a problem with the new format, discuss it and do not make changes on your own without a community discussion. One more revert and you will be reported to WP:AIV. SRX 03:23, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
