RE

Would you mind if I turned you down? My brother's wedding is tomorrow, and I start at a new job on Monday (Honeywell, working on airplane engines if you're curious), so I'm going to be occupied for an indefinite period of time. I'm sorry about this, but I would hate to tell you that I'll do it, and then not get on the computer for a week. TTYL, The Hybrid 05:37, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

RE:Copyedit

I am kinda tight right now, I'll try to do it later on. I'm fine, thanks for asking :).--S_RX 16:26, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

... a million for the barnstar! I'll keep an eye out for you in the future :) —97198 talk 07:25, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Hope I can review a few of the GANs for you! —97198 talk 11:23, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: Request

Sure. I'll do it now. I'll leave comments/suggestions on the talk page. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 06:45, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

 Done It's pretty good, it's just a few places don't make much sense, and then a few grammar issues. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 07:12, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for the barnstar!! Really appreciate it. Em, I've been ok, I suppose, but my aunt was in a car crash last week, so everything's been a little tense. She was in a coma for a couple of days, so everyone was on edge, but the doctors say she's going to be ok and that there was no lasting damage done so that's good. Also, it means I've had my very very very hyperactive twin cousins aged 6 to stay along with their equally as hyper 4 year brother, who get up at six am every morning to make loads of noise. YAY!! sarcasm Apart from that, life's great! LOL, how about you? Yea, I'm trying to stay away from the PPV articles, 'cause it was changing so much that I didn't have a clue about what was going on. I'm having a go at the cleanup listing, to see if I can't get rid of some of them instead. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 07:31, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, that is weird. I'm glad you're gran's ok. I totally doubt that they're going to tire out, considering its 9am and they're here bugging me for ice-cream. ice-cream. At 9 in the bloody morning!! It's ridiculous. Oh, I doubt the cleanup list is insane isn't it? I'm really good at adding references, so that's the area I'm conentrating on, and I'll let others do the rest of the cleanup. :) LOL, well you gotta steal smart. I expanded a couple of PPV this year, and that drove me out of my mind, so I gave up. I think my head would explode if I had to write one now... I wish you good luck with PPV quest!! ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 08:08, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

LOL. Hmmm, where to find a padded room? Yea, I know that feeling. Don't go missing for too long though. I like talking to you, and it's nice to know there are other people on the 'pedia who can make sure the vandals don't take over the world. :) ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 08:19, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

LOL. Yea, my editing will be decreasing steadily for the next year, with my Leaving Certificate coming up in June. So, since I need maximum points, from about Christmas, I'll probably only be on about once a week, if even. I'll drop to check messages and stuff, but apart from that I'll be spending all my waking moments studying Maths and English and Irish and French and Biology and Chemistry and Home Ecomonics and Accounting, and I'm tired and stressed just thinking about it!!! ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 03:50, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you! I appreciate the confidence boost. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 03:51, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, that sucks, pure and simple. Why won't they accept your credits? That's a bit stupid. I appreciate you letting me know though. ;) ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 05:22, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

That really sucks, but at least you can go to a school, ven if its not the one you wanted. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 05:11, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, good luck!! Yes, you'd better get to bed!! NOW!! GO! LOL, nite! And Good luck! ;) ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 05:22, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Perfect=FA, not GA. Dont worry, it'll pass. ;) ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 05:25, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

The GA review does seem quite long considering Nikki copyedited it, and I went through it. Hmmmm, I'm sure it'll be fine. I might have time later no (no guarantee, I'm seriously pressed for time right now) and if I do, I'll go through it and fix anything that reads weird. You go get sleep. The test is more important than trying to get an article to GA. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 05:31, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

I know I don't have to, but I will if I can find the time, which is highly unlikely. Anyway, good luck for the test. :) ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 05:56, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Move request

Don't worry bout it man everybody gets stress. Do you know the link to that article name change page you mentioned. I can't find it. JakeDHS07 21:00, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

How about ,a move where one wrestler has the opponent's legs on his or her shoulders and is facing the first wrestler, while the second wrestler performs a neckbreaker on the opponent. If you want you can explain what a neckbreaker is, but it might make it seem to long, your call. If you feel I could reword it better, just tell me :)--S_RX 17:52, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: Hard Justice (2008)

Done. I've only requested protection for 48 hours as there isn't a huge amount of vandalism compared to other articles. If it gets declined, I'll keep an eye on the vandalism, and if it continues, I'll ask again for protection. D.M.N. (talk) 19:49, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Protected for 48 hours. D.M.N. (talk) 20:13, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

It seems like this is their review. It's a poor review compared to their previous reports. D.M.N. (talk) 20:27, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

I've just given the Results table a clean-up as the IP's turned it into a mess. My suggestion to you would be (for the moment until Slam! Sports get up a proper review) to clean-up the background section now that the event has occured, putting references in where necessary. Luckily, the Slam! Sports archive does have reports from the previous weeks Impact episodes, plus full reports from past TNA PPV's. D.M.N. (talk) 20:38, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Ah, OK. Good luck with it, if you need any further help, ask on my talkpage. D.M.N. (talk) 20:45, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

References

Yes I know how to do references why do you ask? JakeDHS07 02:33, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

See my edit here for proof http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rey_Mysterio,_Jr.&diff=prev&oldid=231447306 JakeDHS07 02:42, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Just saw that. It was a mistype I copy pasted the format and accidentaly took that with it. Thanks for the catch. JakeDHS07 03:22, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Nah I'm good saw them live. Didnt think they were too good to be honest. Best match in 3 months was Styles vs Angle last man standing at Hard Justice.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:UFC 88.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:UFC 88.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.

Re:OOU

Honestly, the article goes way into detail and explains too much, and some of that info can be deleted and be stated in less words. I recommend following the formula of SummerSlam (2003), as you see, the lead doesn't state how the wrestlers won, just who won. I recommend you do that. I briefly went through the event section, and the Xscape match is just too long, I recommend you only place the major parts that occurred and not play-by-play.--S_RX 12:41, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Re:No Surrender

I'd be happy to write it up sometime tomorrow (I have off from work, yay). Just message me again tomorrow or I'll probably forget, XD. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 04:40, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Er, one thing. Nothing really happened besides a title match announced with no opponents revealed. There's really nothing to write, come to think of it. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 20:54, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Congrats. I hope it passes. Letters from where? Also, could you peer review Matt Sydal when you get a chance? Gavyn Sykes (talk) 21:09, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Oh ok, XD! Thanks. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 21:15, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the review. For the record, I've never seen a single ROH match or even heard of Sydal before he debuted for WWE. I chose this article to work on because it wasn't already bloated by week-by-week and Sydal impressed me. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 03:41, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Don't sweat it. We all make mistakes. It was a simple copy/paste job to restore it. No problem. Only too me a few minutes. :) Gavyn Sykes (talk) 00:55, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm not really the best person to ask. I actually have no clue what FL criteria even are. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 03:16, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Sure, if you really think it would help, why not? Gavyn Sykes (talk) 03:20, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Lockdown

Hi. Sorry it wasn't better news. Believe me, I know the feeling of being sick and tired of an article! I'll try and have another go at copyediting it myself as well. I started yesterday, but there's quite a lot of information to absorb. I'll have another look at the refs too. Cheers. 4u1e (talk) 07:15, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm also very happy to take a look. —97198 talk 07:59, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

[1] Did a pretty decent copyedit; just ask if you'd like me to look at anything else that needs a read from someone who is completely unfamiliar with wrestling :) —97198 talk 10:52, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Looks better at a glance. I'll have a proper look tomorrow Sent e-mail back. D.M.N. (talk) 21:08, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Sent back. I'm logging off now, so I'll read it tomorrow. D.M.N. (talk) 21:23, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Wrestlinglover

Hey, man. Whats been happening. Save Us.Y2J

Jwein, and SummerSlam 2008

In removing that section he violated 3RR, but he didn't revert after a warning. I have added a 2RR template to his talk page but looking at his contribs he is likely to be on when I am asleep. I have made a 3RR report and placed it here. If he reverts once more (up to 19/08/08 06:39) then change my name to yours, add the fifth revert and paste it in to the 3RR report board. Darrenhusted (talk) 12:05, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Copyediting of Lockdown

I didn't mean to take out any out-of-universe information from the article. I'm trying to tighten up the prose, as much of it could be stated in fewer words. There are a few statements I have trimmed, as they are repeated in nearby lines. Please let me know of any specifics that you disagree with. GaryColemanFan (talk) 20:43, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

If it is the wrestlers' real names, I only removed the ones that were already given in the lead section. There is no need to give the real names twice. GaryColemanFan (talk) 20:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

I agree with you about not removing information about an entire feud. I have been vocal about my opposition to the phrasing in WP:PW's style guide about three or four main feuds (or whatever it says). The more storylines a reader knows about, the more valuable the article is to them. In the Good Articles I have written, I explain as many feuds as possible (sometimes as many as ten). GaryColemanFan (talk) 20:49, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Angry Hard Justice IP

Hello, it's me. I'm not really bold, so I'm going to ask you. Would you mind if I have a go at the Hard Justice 2008 article? You're really putting tons of effort on it, but I really feel you're exagerating when it comes to explaining everything. May I? You can always revert it if it's the case.

Regards, 189.19.170.20 (talk) 05:00, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Then I guess I shouldn't bother, since it's your project. But please, try to take what I have said into account. You've got the dedication and the love for the subject, not to mention the experience on wikis, so I'm stepping out of this one. Good luck and thanks for putting that much effort on the TNA articles. Me and other fans thank you. Regards, 189.19.170.20 (talk) 06:05, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
