Concerted effort to make Christian WWE Champion

Several IPs and RajGandhi2 (talk · contribs) are making unsourced edits to Christian (wrestler) and articles surrounding the WWE Championship, claiming that Christian won (past tense) the championship on the June 6 episode of WWE Raw. It is currently June 3 in my time zone, so unless these people are time travelers this is a major violation of WP:CRYSTAL. I've tried requesting semi for the affected pages and rolling back the edits, but could use some help identifying anything I may have missed. Thanks. —KuyaBriBriTalk 19:45, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Forget WP:CRYSTAL, this is clearly a violation of WP:CENA (Cena doesn't lose.) Feedback 20:25, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Chyna

Anyone want to add info on the Chyna article regarding her latest endeavor? Truthfully, I was reluctant to believe it, but several sources are claiming the movie will be released this month, and they claim she is now, no longer claiming she did not make the film, in fact at least one source is claiming she intends to so more. Not to mention that vivid has released screenshots from the film. Sephiroth storm (talk) 16:59, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

WWE Capitol Punishment

If any of you have been living under a rock for the last week or so WWE Capitol Punishment has been put up for AFD AGAIN by Chzz for his usual reason NO RELIABLE THIRD PARTY SOURCES even though they're all a bunch of Dirtsheet's. Y'all are more than welcome to help out with the article and the AFD.--Voices in my Head WWE 04:46, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While I do think it is silly to waste everyone's time with these AFDs, Chzz isn't wrong. They aren't notable by Wikipedia's standards until they meet WP:GNG, which usually doesn't happen until after the event occurs and it is reported on. After reading some of the comments in the AFDs (not just your's), people are taking this way too personally. So what if it is deleted? It isn't forever. Be patient. Recreate it in two weeks when the sources are available. Nikki311 17:57, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Speaking of which, a wrestling website leads me to believe TNA's PPV is on this Sunday but Slammiversary (2011) is a redirect. Tony2Times (talk) 21:32, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Y'all can deal with Chzz and this AFD. I'm done fighting with him. Arguing with him is like arguing with a brick wall there's no point.--Voices in my Head WWE 23:23, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

PPV Policy

It seems we need to re define are un written policy of creating PPV pages two months in advance of the PPV as it seems that not gonna fly anymore any thoughts?--SteamIron 06:17, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The policy that governs this is WP:N. The amount of time isn't relevant. Significant coverage in reliable secondary sources is required--if that exists four months in advance, the article can be created; if that doesn't exist four months after the event, the article can't be created. GaryColemanFan (talk) 21:53, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Why is there no page for Slammiversary? The PPV is live right now.

Vandalism

The Attitude Era is being consistently vandalised by 173.60.130.241, who will intermittently change the IP and mark edits as "minor" to drive his agenda. This involves making WM14 the definitive starting point of the era, and March 2001 the definitive end. There are multiple WWE sources giving various dates as the starting point (this user will remove all except the WM14 cite), and there is no official end. Since he is so relentless in his agenda, I suggest protection. 2.124.196.31 (talk) 13:53, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free use NWO images

I don't want to get into an edit war with User:Jack11111, but I am concerned about two images this user has uploaded: File:Nwo 4 life.jpg and File:Wcw doom.jpg. The rationale for the first image is "to show this group origin", and the rationale for the second one is "to show this scandal". This seems flimsy to me, but I thought I would get opinions from other people before pursuing this. Personally, I don't think a photo of Hogan, Nash, and Hall is necessary when separate images of them are available, and I think people can get a good sense of the "fingerpoke" without a picture of Hogan poking Nash. I'm certainly willing to hear any opinions, though. GaryColemanFan (talk) 21:58, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well I'm glad that Fingerpoke of Doom edit war is done and over with. Now the image is subject to individual perception on A) the importance of the image to integrity of the article, and B) whether the image can be replaced with a free use alternative. I'm pretty much undecided on the matter. I mean the image might be replaceable with a free alternative though I doubt a one is easily available with all three (Nash, Hall, and Hogan). These images however are low-res images, which might deem them acceptable for use provided the proper rationale is noted.--UnquestionableTruth-- 05:17, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If File:Wcw doom.jpg is to be kept, perhaps it should be reduced in size.--UnquestionableTruth-- 05:41, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
