Re: Infobox

 * Which wiki? I can look into it. - Wagnike2 (talk) 14:38, September 23, 2012 (UTC)


 * I looked at in, but the infoboxes are appearing in the right place for me on my browser. So I don't really know. - Wagnike2 (talk) 14:15, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

Harold

 * Initially he was getting just as much coverage as Doc Shelby. I guess Shelby deserves a page first, but if Harold makes a return, when can he earn one? +Yc 16:54, September 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah the Doc's closer to being a manager than AJ at this point it seems. I'm going to scrounge the FCW roster because with the way Harold fell when K+DB didn't catch him it makes me think he's probably in developmental. +Yc 17:10, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

Team name

 * In regard to Cody Rhodes & Damien Sandow, or perhaps Cody & Damien or Rhodes & Sandow, rather than names I'm wondering how Rhodes Scholar(s) might work as an operating name. Reason being, I noticed it was used August 27 during their first August teamup on Raw, and by the time they teamed up again this recent Smackdown, it was actually used on the official blog of Aftermath (the Canadian program on TheScore which does the WWE wrestling commentary).


 * 


 * The use of a name on a forum probably wouldn't be notable enough to use as an operating name, but I'm wondering if this use on a blog that's officially affiliated with the WWE as a content distributor would qualify as notable? +Yc 19:01, September 24, 2012 (UTC)


 * I am a wizard! Would like to make this page for the pair, but based on this I am not sure if we should be calling them Team Rhodes Scholars or The Rhodes Scholars as WWE.com words it both ways. It seems clear enough that Scholar is plural but not whether to use Team/The. I'm going to try and find a clip and see what they actually called themselves on-air, should we go by that? +Yc 17:34, September 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * I found this clip, 'Team' was correct. Guess I forgot Cody saying it. +Yc 17:49, September 25, 2012 (UTC)

Results templates

 * I noticed you created Template:RAW results and Template:Smackdown results in 2009. Would it be okay to create something like this at Template:NXT results to include on the pages?


 * Also I was wondering, since these templates display everything in the history of the shows, would a template based on the year such as Template:2011 results which shows only the events on TV programs in that given year (Raw/Smackdown/NXT)?


 * Reason being that it might make it easier for people to navigate chronological content in storylines that cross into both brands (increasingly more common) and on pages there isn't really any way to find the preceding televised WWE episode like we can with PPVs. +Yc 19:06, September 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, yup. Keep forgetting the WWE gets put in front of there. Even though it's the official name, always wondered why they did that. Not as if there's another NXT or it'll splinter off into a new company. +Yc 20:20, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

Teams

 * They'd be under Category:2012_debuts. Maybe just redirect it there? More teams seem to debut than stars nowadays. Maxine is off NXT (I don't think she works with WWE anymore) which is when I listed them as breaking up as they seemed otherwise together up until that point.


 * I'm not sure what date to put for Kait-Man. I don't think I've seen that pair together since season 5 ended either, but Derrick Bateman is still around (on NXT) whereas Kaitlyn's in the main event Diva's, so they seem to have gradually floated apart. As far as I know they haven't had an official break-up, so the couple doesn't have an expiration date... so should we just list the last time they tagged together? +Yc 17:57, September 25, 2012 (UTC)

Image naming schemes

 * I added RAW_1009_Photo_141.jpg based on the naming scheme used on the files hosted on WWE.com. They seem to be going based on the episode number. I think they may have used the date in the past.


 * When I looked at a recent Smackdown image they also seem to be doing that (ep 683).


 * It makes me wonder if it might be possible to initially create pages at the date like we used to, but then move them to RAW 1009 or somethin' like that. *shrug*


 * So anyway this image probably belongs here but the red filenames appear to use a different naming scheme. They're numbered 49 to 52 so I'm not sure which of these photo 141 should be. Was this a non-WWE site they were to be copied from? +Yc 18:27, September 25, 2012 (UTC)

Maxine

 * The WWE has deleted Maxine's facebook page and her twitter account and her FCW page. I happened to notice that her WWE page happens to still be up though. It's not linked under 'M' on the superstars page, but the page itself is still up, and via that I can view WWE.com's logs of her twitter account, both her later posts and those of people who have replied to her.


 * I've been saving these as image files because I never know when WWE.com staff might notice and have it taken down. I was wondering, would it be okay to upload the screenshots or a text copy of the conversations to a gallery or sub-page here? It's rare when we get a chance to log evidence of a star that WWE is in the process of squelching. +Yc 20:04, September 25, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Saturday Morning Slam

 * They are the same as any episode page, worse comes to worse. I will somehow take the time and watch the episodes and screenshot it. - Wagnike2 (talk) 14:19, September 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * Maybe for SMS and WWE Superstars we can have parts explaining why TheScore doesn't air these in Canada like they do Raw/SD/NXT/Vintage. +Yc 11:05, September 28, 2012 (UTC)

Re: 2013 Raw pages
I must have accidentally overlooked the adding of those categories, my bad. I personally think the Mae Young's son page is ok, we are trying to cover everything about wrestling so it works. Though, I'm pretty sure he is known more as "Hand" so maybe the page should be renamed that. - Wagnike2 (talk) 13:26, September 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * I couldn't search one out, but I couldn't help but think "the Hand" would be a common enough phrase that surely a wrestler or two might have already adopted it as one of their ring names. +Yc 16:12, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

TTT
I noticed you used the Tag Team Tournament phrase on the Hell in a Cell 2012 page. Someone had outlined this tournament on Wikipedia but I imported it to its own page here so that it would be more easily visible and updateable. While pretext to HiaC, I think since it's occuring on TV that it being separate is useful.

As for the page title, that's a working one for now. I'm sure there must've been tag team tournaments in the past on various shows, though none specifically come to mind. If we can identify some others which could be outlined on pages, then I could rename this page to someone more specific (like "2012 tournament") and then we could potentially group such pages in a 'tournaments' category or something. +Yc 16:12, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

WWE Nav Button Page
What's the point of this? Not to be mean, but it seems really unnecessary. - Wagnike2 (talk) 14:19, October 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * I guess my thing is to try to exercise some judgement in creating those pages, not every person is going to need a magazine page etc. But I trust you on this. Anyway, thanks for answering. - Wagnike2 (talk) 14:25, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

Dem Co-Bros
Just gonna move these images to their gallery page them. =/ +Yc 05:02, October 9, 2012 (UTC)

Encore/The Encore versus The Band
I'd sorta like to dispute the naming here. I've added 2 references from WWE.com regarding them being called 'the band' via their last 2 appearances (no working name from 1st in September). I haven't found any references calling them 'The Encore'. I had included their debut link in which the word 'encore' does not appear. The 'Encore' page was made Sept 21 (their debut) by Supermhj8616. Oct 3 Jim Logan renamed The Band into The Encore based on history, saying that Heath 'renamed' it. But from what? 'The Band' was first used AFAIK on Oct 1, and used again Oct 8 the most recent raw. IF Supermh is right and they were somehow called 'Encore' (perhaps via twitter? Didn't hear it on air) on Sept 21, that would still mean that 'The Band' is the newest and most regularly used name. +Yc 05:47, October 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Now there's an issue regarding the content being copied over to 3MB. Nothing was added and references weren't used properly so I redirected it back to The Band. If they keep the name and it shows up on WWE.com a couple more times it'll probably become more notable, but in that case, I'll leave it up to you guys whether or not it should be moved there over the redirect. +Yc 20:43, October 17, 2012 (UTC)

3MB
Thanks for reviewing the issue. My problem wasn't so much the change in name (though it had to be referenced, and was, by me) but that rather than an actual move occuring (which I was waiting for an admin to choose to do) a new page was created (which doesn't keep the editing history intact) and the old page was redirected to the NWO page. I was thining (as I can see how now been done) that 'the band' should have been made into a disambig page.

I was also not sure whether you admins wanted to go with 3MB, or "Three Man Band" which it stands for, again why I thought it better to stick with 'the band' and editing the page until receiving input about it. +Yc 18:40, October 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * It seems the references for the various names were removed though. Is it okay if I restore them? +Yc 18:42, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

October 3 weirdness
Just noticed this while updating International Airstrike:
 * October 3, 2012 Main Event results
 * October 3, 2012 NXT results

IA lost to 2 different teams in both of these shows, held in Florida and Oklahoma respectively. That's just weird =/ Also why, if we can ever find the NXT taping dates, I think using them would be a great idea. Since we know that FCW's site announced the first NXT champion a month+ before the ep actually aired.

When CM Punk came to observe the first NXT championship title defense he still had his old hair and was verbally on good terms with JR too, even though he had beaten up JR on the Raw that aired a couple weeks previously :D +Yc 20:43, October 17, 2012 (UTC)

Raw Results
Hey Dean, just wondering why you reverted my edit on the 7/27/98 Raw results. I thought you would want all the raw results formatted the way they are now. I did a few others and they weren't reverted so wondering if I did something wrong. Thanks.snik (talk) 09:51, October 19, 2012 (UTC)

Oh yeah that was my plan. I will try and get one up a day as it takes time to go through the episode to get the ref appearances verified and stuff but I was going to do all of 1998 and go from there. thanks.snik (talk) 10:21, October 19, 2012 (UTC)

Airstrike
Noticed references for names removed here. The reason they were included is because I don't think this team has been referred to by this name on either WWE programming or WWE.com yet. Tout and Twitter, afaik are the places the name originated from so I included them so that people would know it is legitimate.

Also I am wondering, regarding the label of 'unofficial', if we could establish what the requirements of an 'official' label are. I assume a WWE.com use (perhaps in quotes to emphasize) or the team being labelled this on-air (perhaps with an onscreen caption?) would be adequate.

WWE seems to be making increasing use of 'Tout' though, with touts from fans and superstars even being aired on the television program. IA's tout regarding their name hasn't been aired that I've seen, but being that we do have video footage from both of the two superstars confirming their tag team's name, would that be adequate to call it 'official'?

If they are removed can I at least repost the references on the article's talk page? They took a while to compile. +Yc 19:10, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Move requests
Would like to know if list of Dark matches could be moved to list of dark matches and if Dark Match could be moved to dark match. Also wondering, would getting a copy of Wikipedia:Template:Move for here (sort of like Template:Merge which we do have) be useful in the future so there could be a cat admins could check for move suggestions to encourage people not to do it themself?

Also, since there are a LOT of unlisted darkmatch, I am wondering if it might be okay to split the DMs listing by year, like 2012 dark matches or something like that? Also since dark matches aren't listed on WWE.com afaik, if it is mentioned on CageMatch or something like that, is that adequate evidence for inclusion on the list?

Also if it is possible to do year-based dark match listings, am wondering if it should be mixed (both Raw and Smackdown) or if you would like there to be brand-separation such as 2012 Raw dark matches or 2012 Smackdown dark matches or something like that? Or if not brand, then perhaps company like 2012 WWE dark matches to separate from any dark matches that might occur on TNA/RoH (though I'm not sure if they do that). +Yc 23:04, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Would also like to suggest the merger of the contents of Category:Wrestling slang with Category:Professional wrestling slang. Not sure if these mean distinctive things. I don't know why title is better, and whether or not to put in browse or content. WS has 23 pages, PWS has 60, so WS>PWS seems like less work in line with the wikia's URL. That said, since it is a PW wikia, perhaps it could just be Category:Slang instead? +Yc 23:47, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Mixed teams category
I was just thinking that since mixed gender tag teams are kinda distinctive, if I could make this as a subcategory of Category:Teams and stables for the team pages that include a male+female mix? Not sure what to call it, was thinking Category:Mixed teams or something along those lines. +Yc 05:07, October 23, 2012 (UTC)

Question
Well, Mr.Dean27, as you see on RAW and Smackdown! that the Brand Extention is over, the titles are avalable to each show, anyone can content(etc), I was wondering if there was a way to, merge the rosters or something. The Vital Element 15:33, October 26, 2012 (UTC)

In WWE '13 Attitude Era mode here is another part it focus on Off Scrpit just letting you know.

Sorry about moving pages
I'm still really new to this Wiki. I wont move anyhting anymore. It's because there was an image gallery on the Piper's Pit page and I thought youd like the the Image gallery to be seperate from the actual page. My mistake. DJGobbledy (talk) 11:08, December 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Well as of right now I won't even be touching the Pro Wrestling:Projects/requested page for video games. I pretty much listed them all. But thanks for letting me know in advance. I didn't even know I broke something.... lol DJGobbledy (talk) 11:16, December 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * Cool I noticed a lot of pages have the gimmick history red links. I'll be sure to remove any I see. Glad I could help DJGobbledy (talk) 13:12, December 7, 2012 (UTC)

Admin
How many edits do I need to become an admin cause I would like to help this wiki.User:Pythor9449 (talk) January 6,2013 12:57 (UTC)

Importing
Would it be possible to import Joel Redman? As Oliver Grey he was featured prominently on NXT recently, and he is now part of an 8-man tournament, the winner of which gets a spot in the Royal Rumble. Right now he's doing this british Judoka bit which is pretty interesting.

Wagnike said I could copy over the contents but I think if we imported the article with edit history intact, this would be a better tribute to those who originated the information, as well as containing information from previous edits.

While anyone can special:export, I think special:import is a function reserved for admins so we normal folk can't do it :( +Yc 17:04, January 26, 2013 (UTC)

Editing Tips
This'd be easier to explain if it were a numbered list instead of bullets but basically right now it says:
 * ANYONE who moves a page with asking Dean27 or Nic first will be blocked

Am thinking should be without but is locked so I can't fix. Also might be good to add "and getting permission from". I know it's heavily implied but technicalities. +Yc 21:52, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

Halldor
Hello. This is Halldor Ivar. You blocked me on this site and i just wanted to let you know that I wasn't aware of the fact I had to put the other image in the image gallery. Neither did I know how to put them in the image gallery, I'm new to editing and I want to apologise if I was any trouble. I couldn't leave you a message and I don't know why.

PS. This is a different computer that I'm in right now.

Ep infoboxes
Noticed Template:Infobox Wrestling episode is used for 2010 and earlier and Template:2011 Infobox Wrestling episode is used for later. I love the new fields and details that the new template has, like linking to the cageMatch summary and stuff like that. I was wondering, would it be okay to go back to earlier episodes and add the '2011' in front along with the cagematch link? It took me a while to figure out how to find them but basically WWE events transition chronologically from 2011 to 2010 here so I could just follow that.

Those links are particularly useful since their titles include the actual episode number of things like raw which is interesting to know. Like for example I read that there was a triple threat between Cena, Sheamus and Taker on "Raw 900" special, but that occurs during 2010 so couldn't find it easily barring the link, so would love to add it.

Would it be okay just adding the CageMatch links to start (since they have data) and then go from there filling out the other fields which 2011 adds, like TV station and such?

It has a lot of interesting information about house matches too but I don't know if we cover those. +Yc 19:49, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

What the Funk
Do you know if it was Matt Striker or Josh Matthews who named Brodus/Tensai? I sometimes have trouble telling who said what if I'm not listening closely. This makes their second or third match together I think, it would be great to have a page about them. Especially if the 'reunion' of RS is one-time it's almost like passing the torch. +Yc 00:53, February 18, 2013 (UTC)
 * If it helps I found the official WWE video of the pre-show and coded this link to skip ahead to the time where the name is said: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4vQfs8jsQM&t=9m25s Matt Striker (I believe) is saying "Brodus Clay and Tensai, or the 'Dancing Bears' as I like to call them, 'Team What the Funk'" (happens in span of 10 seconds by 9:35 into vid).
 * The article about this match doesn't repeat Striker's name suggestions and uses other references to them such as "discoing duo" and "two behemoths" and "better dancers".
 * This being their third victory together as a new tag team it would be awesome to make a page keeping track of their accomplishments but I guess I'm looking for something recurring to go with. I think Striker's initial "Dancing Bears" comment on the pay-per-view pre-show is possibly the most catchy and notable though. Easier to spell than "Team What the Funk" even though that does follow the Team Hell No and Team Rhodes Scholars "team" formats of late.
 * In previous articles there are also some other phrases used to refer to them. Smackdown (after their victory over 3MB) calls them "dancing duo" while Raw referred to them as "big man heaven" and "two titans".
 * Do you think one of these could work as a page title which could be replaced if they're ever unveiled with some kind of official name? Striker seems like the senior authority here, and some tag teams never get official names (like Kofi and Truth) so we might be waiting a long time. +Yc 22:42, February 18, 2013 (UTC)

Mexican AAA/CMLL Pages
Hey Dean, just wanted to make sure it's ok first, but I noticed there's a lack of Mexican content (AAA/CMLL), would it be ok If I started working on episode pages for these feds using the same formats you've been doing for WWE/TNA/ROH etc." I Never Risk The Fettman" 07:57, February 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok I've used the same template as you did one the existing 2 event pages and here's what I've done: May_17,_1992_AAA_results, Am I ok to go ahead and use the same template for the other episodes (I know there's a lot!)
