You are wrong and do not know what the definition of revelance is... You have mistaken my supposed mistake. Undo your mistake... Thank You... Heru101 (talk) 22:09, 3 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

(talk page stalker) After looking at your contributions Your edit on Paige is what I assume you are talking about, which in that case Wrestlingnews.co is not a reliable source per WP:PW/RS and can't be used, there was no mistake made by LM. Secondly if Paige was pregnant WWE.com would be the first to break the news as she was backstage at RAW lastnight and WWE would know before any dirt sheet. If the Paige edit is not your complaint, then I suggest you be more specific on what your issue is. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 23:03, 3 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Heru101, The rumor seems to have been debunked. I don't think we'll need to discuss further.LM2000 (talk) 23:35, 3 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

ANI

edit

Not understanding how to do an ANI, which I think im gonna have to do with that Dave guy after today. Left Oshwah a message on his talk about it but I don't think he's been on to see it. Suggestions? Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 05:09, 14 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

There's no wrong way to file an ANI report, just make sure you include a lot of diffs. Your post to Oshwah is a pretty good outline actually, you could probably copy most of it for the report.LM2000 (talk) 06:22, 14 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
Think I should wait and see if he continues or file it? Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 07:03, 14 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
I usually wait until I've given them multiple warnings. This is a little different because he keeps saying he's going to report you, so this'll end up at some noticeboard sooner or later (WP:BOOMERANG if he files). I haven't been on much lately so I haven't seen all of his edits but if you think there's enough already then I will support your filing.LM2000 (talk) 07:14, 14 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
That's my issue he hasn't posted in almost 2 weeks then boom posts to my talk and posts nothing else. I think I'm gonna wait and see if he does it again after I told him to stop posting on my talk again, then it's ANI. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 07:17, 14 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

WWE Hall of Fame

edit

Are you using a second account or something? Both Edge and Shawn Michael's entries mention their secondary title wins. DaveA2424 (talk) 23:30, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

They mention some, not all. Pick one or two that you want to list but don't list every accomplishment. This has been the criteria for years so all veteran editors familiar with these additions will be reverting you.LM2000 (talk) 23:33, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

It seems a little neglectful to leave out accolades but if that's the general consensus then I'll go with it to avoid edit wars. DaveA2424 (talk) 23:46, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Notice how Shawn Michaels' Intercontinental Championship wins are mentioned. DaveA2424 (talk) 00:43, 17 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Taking a break

edit

Keep an eye on my talk would ya please? I'm taking a break for a bit, I'll be back in a week or so. That ANI was waste of time, clear signs of Incivility, False accusations, and Battlefield behavior and it's being treated as a content dispute when it was about Incivility and involved as many users as it did with 1 user being the problem, compete waste of time. But whatever that's what I get for doing things by the book won't happen again. Later Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 07:00, 18 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

I've got it in my watchlist so I'll keep an eye out. ANI doesn't always get a desired result, or any result at all; no admin responded to our thread about the brand dispute awhile back and that's pretty normal. But it's also normal for admins to respond and still take no action in a first thread. The good news is that it's been archived so if he keeps causing problems we can link to the original thread when we start a new one. I've never seen a second thread started without some action being taken.LM2000 (talk) 23:52, 18 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Did you know......

edit

Did you know our Vandal did this, which was fixed & this? Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 07:47, 21 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yea, I saw that. I looked at their history before reporting because I initially assumed it was TAWT but I've never known him to make edits like that. The vandal also was warned for some bad image uploads.LM2000 (talk) 08:06, 21 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

So I found this today which I did restore everything back to a prior edit after I realized trying to do it by each section was going to be horrid. Let me know what you think, I did do a warning welcome as the user has 15 edits, has been here 2 months and probably shouldn't have made such mass changes without a consensus. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 15:05, 21 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

I think you're right to have done so, I think it was better before the changes. I only reverted one earlier and didn't know they made more changes.LM2000 (talk) 15:29, 21 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
They did it again,mass changes and removing stuff. I welcomed them the first time, they were warned this time. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 22:51, 21 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
I'll keep an eye out too. Also, they just ran a CU on TAWT and our vandal didn't come up as one of his accounts.[1]LM2000 (talk) 03:29, 22 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
Figured as much, MO didn't fit. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 05:23, 22 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Lmao that Sbh69 gives me an Anti-Vandalism barnstar today and then proceeds to mass change Vince again. So they got another warning for disruptive edits and I reverted it back. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 22:25, 22 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

More edits today but nothing too egregious. They even removed an old rumor about Vince retiring years ago sourced to WrestleZone.LM2000 (talk) 12:21, 23 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
No consensus for that many changes to it. Changing Attitude era to Ruthless Aggression era doesn't even make sense, it wasn't known as that. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 12:30, 23 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
I don't have high hopes at this point but I wrote out on their talk page why their edits are getting reverted. We'll see what happens next.LM2000 (talk) 15:35, 23 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
AIV was declined. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 16:35, 23 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
Not surprising, they usually take action against only the most obvious cases of vandalism. We'll have to ride it out a little longer before noticeboards will do anything about it.LM2000 (talk) 16:40, 23 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Just so you know the Penguin is up on an SPI. I wouldn't support them quite yet. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 12:47, 24 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Jeez, what is it with all the wrestling socks lately? Shame if this one's true, I liked some of their edits. I didn't like all of them though, the edits to stuff like Big Show made little difference in the long run and were pretty useless. But they did give Roman a nice cleaning.LM2000 (talk) 13:48, 24 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
See my response here, to much of a coincidence. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 17:49, 24 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

User:MajesticPenguin was identified as a blocked users sock here, sure you look this over good there were ALOT of socks that have been editing on Wrestling articles.Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 03:29, 25 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

I had seen StylesClash's edits before but nothing weird stood out until I saw an ANI thread about odd behavior on their talk page, that led to the first sockpuppet investigation. With so many different sockmasters running around the wikiproject it's hard to assume good faith with new users. At least I know what behaviors to look for with the StylesClash socks in the future.LM2000 (talk) 04:14, 25 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sorry

edit

...for the delay in deleting the WWE tag team article, I've been going over it for almost an hour to see if the accounts were perhaps related to this sockpuppet case, but I could find nothing definitive. TomStar81 (Talk) 01:54, 3 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

No need to apologize! I too suspected its creator of being a sockpuppet of another user but I ruled that out after looking into it. The creator's talk page also had an SPI notice posted for a third case. If indeed they are a sockpuppet I think it will turn up in a CU somewhere down the line.LM2000 (talk) 02:12, 3 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thoughts??

edit

What are your thoughts on this and this??? Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 11:06, 12 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sorry it took awhile to respond. I see the Shaq paragraph is hidden in the storyline section. It should either be hidden in both sections or hidden in neither but not mixed-matched. The UK Championship article looks good the way it is now, it just took a lot of edit warring to get there. LM2000 (talk) 00:46, 13 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
I agree but the Shaq match keeps getting removed even with 2 valid sources. Like this bullshit that is getting out of hand. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 01:12, 13 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
I agree. Dane's fixed it for now but I'll keep an eye on it.LM2000 (talk) 03:03, 13 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Inoki

edit

Can we just agree that Inoki have to be grey on the Combined reigns table? So it makes 49, not 50 champs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.156.93.97 (talk) 22:56, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

That looks fine to me.LM2000 (talk) 22:59, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
Ok, I understand this recognized-only-for-a-few-days bit and this reign probably should be listed. But having 50 champions in combined table bothered me because it would be very inconsistent. Hope this way it works.88.156.93.97 (talk) 23:16, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
I agree it was inconsistent and I think that edit improved the article. I've asked for your edit war thread to be closed.LM2000 (talk) 23:20, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yeah

edit

Any chance of getting the PWInsider and Death of WCW cites back into the last paragraph of the "Undefeated streak" section at Bill Goldberg? The guy (Trepcost) that removed them all and continually pushed to keep them out, has been blocked as a long-term sock. I'm no saint, but since literally one blocked user wanted the section stripped of cites, shouldn't the paragraph in question go back to the way it was?[2] All the best. 2A02:C7F:8E16:8300:F8CB:63B8:FB41:44BE (talk) 05:36, 18 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Christ that article is a mess. There's so much edit warring, vandalism and sockpuppetry that I have no idea who is who or what the hell is going on. It's been totally protected so that only admins can edit it. I do agree that those facts should be added back to the article, I could be wrong but I don't think that WCW's inflation of Goldberg's record is often disputed.LM2000 (talk) 06:56, 18 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
(talk page stalker) The inflation thing was added by one of TAWTs many IPS, it's been removed and put back so many times I've lost count. The edit warring over the pic is flipping ridiculous. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 07:04, 18 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Pro Wrestling Sheet

edit

Hello LM2000. It's been some time because I was away from the website. I'm thinking they're a reliable source to be added. What do you think? starship.paint ~ KO 12:00, 18 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi Starship.paint, it's always good to hear from you. I honestly know very little about PWS or their editorial oversight. They were one of the few sites that delayed reporting the death of Nicole Bass; while everyone else reported her death they said she was still alive and had just been taken off life support. If there is any truth to that then we should probably look into adding that to the reliable list.LM2000 (talk) 00:34, 19 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
The site was created in 2015, that's pretty recently. We should probably give them some more time and see if they get a reputation for being reliable.★Trekker (talk) 16:01, 22 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
I knew I'd heard about PWS somewhere before Nicole Bass died but I couldn't place it. Then I listed to Don Tony and Kevin Castle's podcast and remembered that they ripped them late last year for getting details on Tammy Lynn Sytch's arrest wrong. They said PWS was wrong about the Nicole Bass story too. I know they're not a reliable source either, and I still don't know who was really right about Nicole Bass, but I agree we need to give them time to establish a reputation.LM2000 (talk) 22:19, 22 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yo

edit

So I'm sticking rigidly to policy at WP:PW/RS, but as an IP I've been cast as the vandal: User:TBBC guts myriad WP:PW/RS approved sources (PWInsider, PWTorch, Baltimore Sun, Slam Sports etc) on his vandalistic crusade at Survivor Series (1992), and has unfortunately gained the support of other users because he's registered and I'm a lowly IP. I can't do anything about it, so maybe you can have a look at the Survivor Series (1992) history. WP:BRD dictates a revert to the pre-edit war (supposedly this is an "edit war", rather than vandalism removal) version, but they're actually breaking policy and refusing to do that, and are keeping the vandalised version because as an IP, I must be wrong. All the best. 2A02:C7F:8E16:8300:E42B:2F78:719B:CAAE (talk) 13:22, 19 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hey got all my outside wiki stuff caught up so I'm semi back. Wanted to let you know because of a TNA Impact taping that hasn't aired people are changing the TNA World Heavyweight Championship to reflect a title change at a taping that TNA isn't even acknowledging yet and won't till it airs. Sad part it was a long-time user that started it. It's also being changed here. Also people keep changing Jack Swagger saying he's been released when WWE hasn't granted him it yet. He requested it but they never granted it. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 10:08, 3 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

When Trepcost ended up being a different sock I pretty much gave up on that article. It's still in my watchlist and I'm still seeing large chunks or article being moved around, added and deleted, but it usually barely changes the substance of the article.

Am I missing something??

WWE only shows 24 participates for the Andre memorial at WM33, yet the WrestleMania 33 articles has 31 names listed with no sources, so where are all the others coming from? Or did I miss something? Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 20:59, 30 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

JDC808 said the 31 entrants were on a poster and that it's sourced. I don't see this source so I must be missing something too. I responded in the thread.LM2000 (talk) 01:11, 31 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

I don't know how.......

edit

I don't know how it was missed but AJ didn't meet his wife until 96 and didn't marry his wife until 2000. The article said they were married in 95 with a ref that never said that. I updated it with a newer ref here. I can't believe it's been missed all this time. Hell him and Wendy didn't graduate high school until 96. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 00:12, 1 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Good catch. You'd be surprised to find how long vandalism can stay in place when it's not obvious.LM2000 (talk) 00:17, 1 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
There were 2 refs listed and neither of them said 1995 or gave a year period for that matter. Thankfully I found the newer one that said it was 2000. I added it to my watch list just in case someone decides to put it back. Funny part was the first of the article even said he didn't graduate until 1996. lol Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 00:22, 1 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thoughts on this Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 22:57, 6 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

I agree with you guys, "utterly redundant". I tend to think that shorter ledes are better. Those details are fine in the body of the article.LM2000 (talk) 01:32, 7 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
Clearly the latest IP sock of LTA User:Mangoeater1000. Same interests in wrestling and finances ('x wrestler earned this', 'x belt cost this'), same habit of using bare URLs as refs, same argumentative attitude. By the way, he's currently editing from unblocked sock User:Bbx118, and added a big ol' sock section to NWA World Heavyweight Championship (worth keeping an eye on). Cheers. 172.110.215.185 (talk) 20:12, 9 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
Bbx has a lot in common with Mangoeater but I'm reluctant to say it's him, unfortunately a lot of editors have been adding fancruft to the championship articles. It wasn't that long ago that one editor put a gallery of belts at WWE Championship. I'll keep an eye on it either way.LM2000 (talk) 21:11, 9 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

How can something you have to pay to hear be reliable when you can't prove what it says without paying for it like this link that's being used for the refrence?? Chris "WarMachineWildThing" Talk to me 02:48, 12 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Deletions

edit

Hi. I see how sportsfan opens AfD after AfD... I think somebody should talk to him. I mean, he is deleting every british promotion. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:40, 26 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I mean almost everything he has put up for deletion has been non-notable but not all. I don't know if it's appropriate to do nothing for a project but put up dozens of article for deletion. I don't want to be accusatory but maybe that editor who implied that they have a biase against pro wrestling has a point. Just my two cents.★Trekker (talk) 12:47, 26 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
I'll message them about it if their AfDs keep ending in keep. A simple google search found enough sources to prove notability for most of these. Truthfully, a lot of articles in our project could use looking into, and some of us have been given grief for nominating some tag team articles, but these are pushing it.LM2000 (talk) 04:42, 28 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Jobbers

edit

Your category is going to wind up being deleted (or remain and be useless) if it doesn't adhere to Wikipedia:CATDEFINING. The reason I removed Koko and Bull Pain from it is because their careers weren't defined by jobbing. That's someone like Dusty Wolfe, Hardbody Harrison, etc. Koko was a strong mid card wrestler during the 80s in WWE and wrestled (and won) high profile matches. He didn't become a jobber until later on.It doesn't make sense to just toss everyone who ever jobbed into this category or it will include like 80% of all wrestlers. GigglesnortHotel (talk) 14:02, 23 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

I didn't create this category. Do you mean that the category itself will be deleted or it will be removed from certain articles? I added it to Koko's article because it says he was notable for being a jobber in the WP:LEAD, making it a defining characteristic.LM2000 (talk) 14:21, 23 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
Someone deciding to put it in the lede doesn't make it a defining characteristic... it has to be backed up with sources. Please have a look at Wikipedia:CATDEFINING. GigglesnortHotel (talk) 17:03, 23 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
Latter-day Koko was like latter-day Tito, still more than capable of whooping The Brooklyn Brawler or Reno Riggins but pretty much doomed against Warlord or The Barbarian. "Jobber to the stars", as the Internet of 1997 would call them. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:42, June 23, 2017 (UTC)
Fun Fact: Tito and Koko hold a combined 89-0 record over Brawler, who once defeated Los Boricuas, The Disciples of Apocalypse, The Nation of Domination and The Truth Commission at the same time. Needless to say, this won him a title shot against Shawn Michaels, himself an absolute loser against Randy Savage (0-19), unlike Koko, who beat IC Champ Savage on TV in 1986. It was a countout, of course, but still...what jobber can do what HBK can't? InedibleHulk (talk) 18:04, June 23, 2017 (UTC)

This is to inform you that an attempt is being made to overturn an RfC that you voted on

edit

This is to inform you that an attempt is being made to overturn an RfC that you voted on (2 RfCs, actually, one less than six months ago and another a year ago). The new RfC is at:

Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#RfC: Allow private schools to be characterized as non-affiliated as well as religious, in infobox?

Specifically, it asks that "religion = none" be allowed in the infobox.

The first RfC that this new RfC is trying to overturn is:

The result of that RfC was "unambiguously in favour of omitting the parameter altogether for 'none' " and despite the RfC title, additionally found that "There's no obvious reason why this would not apply to historical or fictional characters, institutions etc.", and that nonreligions listed in the religion entry should be removed when found "in any article".

The second RfC that this new RfC is trying to overturn is:

The result of that RfC was that the "in all Wikipedia articles, without exception, nonreligions should not be listed in the Religion= parameter of the infobox.".

Note: I am informing everyone who commented on the above RfCs, whether they supported or opposed the final consensus. --Guy Macon (talk) 03:18, 26 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hello LM2000,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Global Wrestling Network for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons. For more details please see the notice on the article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Dwayne Johnson is a movie star while Adam Copeland is a television star plan and simple they are on the same level they both have successful acting careers outside of wrestling. But the point of coming to your talk page was because you said Edge might be more famous in wrestling then The Rock might be and that is just absolutely impossible the rock became a huge movie star because of his role in wrestling Copeland might be in the big movies but he is successful on tv series has he has been on a good amount.
