"GEORG" Hackenschmidt
Georg Hackenschmidt is his name, but his ring (as in wrestling) name IS GEORGE Hackenschmidt, and all of his wrestling results list him as such. Next time please pay attention to what you edit, as George Hackenschmidt was listed as his "ring name(s)". not his real name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MackyMackn (talk • contribs)
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
While Nintendo stated at one point in time that this game took place a few decades after The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, they also stated at numerous times that it took place 100 years after Ocarina of Time. They also stated that it took place sometime after Ocarina of Time but before The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, even though a recent interview stated that the two games took place in entirely different timelines, one following the future ending of Ocarina of Time and one following the past ending. The game makes it QUITE clear that it is impossible to take place only a few decades after Ocarina of Time, as the Hero of Time is referred to as "the ancient hero" which refers to much more than a few decades, the Temple of Time is completely broken down which would take longer than a few decades, and Ganondorf is almost entirely forgotten, which would take more than a few decades. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DrZaius1 (talk • contribs)
More Zelda
The source is here. http://www.nindori.com/interview/154zelda/154int_02.html Since you most likely cannot read Japanese, I'll also paste the translation as it is provided on Wikipedia.
[Partial translation: "ND – About when is the Twilight Princess timeline set? Aonuma – In a world some hundred years after 'Ocarina of Time.' ND – And 'Wind Waker'? Aonuma – 'Wind Waker' is parallel. In 'Ocarina of Time,' Link jumps to a world seven years ahead, defeats Ganon, and returns to the time of his childhood, right? 'Twilight Princess' is a world some hundred years after that pacified childhood time."]
As you can see, this not only confirms the double timeline, but also shows that Twilight Princess now takes place some hundred years after Ocarina of Time, not a few decades. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DrZaius1 (talk • contribs)
Backlash
Someone talked to me about that one time. They said that it goes in order of the announced matches, but they said the only exception is the main event is always listed first no matter what order the matches were announced in. - RYANonWIKIPEDIA
User name vandal
New user TJ Spike created a new account with a name similar to yours. He's been reverting every edit you've recently done and called it vandalism. He's using the name to attack you. Here's a nice little edit in particular [1]. Anyways, just thought I'd let you know. -- bulletproof 3:16 18:09, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- I'll alert an admin I know whose on right now. Bmg916Speak to Me 18:12, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- No prob. Deskana already took care of it. -- bulletproof 3:16 18:13, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- Just saw that, good stuff. Bmg916Speak to Me 18:16, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- He just created a sock in User:Wrestlingrules. He also commented on an AfD that you just nominated. I reverted it though and Deskana took care of him. Again, just thought I'd let you know. -- bulletproof 3:16 19:08, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- He's back as User:Steelchair now. 22:51, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oy. Maybe I should report him and his sockpuppets, have this users IP blocked since he obviously has no intention to stop. TJ Spyke 22:52, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- Is there a way to find out his IP? If there is, I can take a look at the account creation logs and find any possible sleeper accounts. Bmg916Speak to Me 23:58, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hopefully the IP gets blocked. Even if it does, I'd still ask Deskana to check the User creation logs on the IP for any possible sleeper accounts. Bmg916Speak to Me 00:09, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

New Sock
Reported to Yamla, let's see what happens, I think he's waiting on the checkuser to tak any further action. But I'm sure they'll all come back confirmed, then they'll get indef blocked, and if he continues more than likely a community ban. Can you believe this guy wants to be an administrator? That's a laugh. Bmg916Speak to MeLeave Your Mark 22:16, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey TJ just wanted to ask a question. I've forgotten and was wondering if you could tell me, where do i get those boxes that you have on your User page. (those things like what you use or what u do). It would be helpful if you could reply ---Belevsquad 04:29, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Wrestlemania 23 Layla & Brooke
OK, I know that you know that they haven't announced Brooke as "Brooke Adams" or Layla as "Layla El". So stop listing Brooke & Layla including their last names, even though the other ladies use their last names they don't.

WM23
Please don't mark my edits as vandalism unless they are described by the policy as such. --wL<speak·check> 00:17, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- Come to think about it, would any person in the promotion appearing at WrestleMania be notable enough. The boogeyman skit in my view is as notable as the dancing legends one before it. --wL<speak·check> 00:33, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Logical Note
If you have a DVR go back to the beginning of the match. Before The match begins you will see very long close ups on shawn and Cena, at one point michaels waves goodbye to the fan. If you rewind to before these, you will see a wide shot of the ring, and a man with no shirt and white shorts is in the ring. Other PPV's have made notes of happenings like this one and it is a logical note. You will hear JR say, "well we certainly appreciate the fans from all over the world..." I have a picture. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bartleby191 (talk • contribs) 02:55, 2 April 2007 (UTC).
- Actually, we don't note that kind of stuff. Just like we didn't note when a fan climbed on JBL's limo at SummerSlam 2004. TJ Spyke 02:58, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- fair enough I thought For sure one of the major ones from an in your house show was noted, but frankly I'm not gonna bother lookin it up :) \

Wrestler ages
Why are you removing the "birth date and age" templates from wrestlers' articles? SteveLamacq43 20:33, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- I don't really see a need for it to go through WP:PW as it's not a big deal at all and you're the only person who seems to think it is, by removing it. SteveLamacq43 10:41, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- Stop removing the template. You know there's a consensus being reached, and just because it's not the one you want doesn't mean you can do what clearly could be construed as vandalism.SteveLamacq43 11:44, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Meta:Don't be a dick. You gave your opinion on the consensus here (20:27, 3 April 2007) and then continued to be awkward a day later here. Also, making this personal by reverting perfectly legitimate, unrelated edits, i.e. this, is not the way to go. SteveLamacq43 22:29, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Survivor Series Heat Match
Hey TJ, I found another description of the Jeff vs. Val match that took place before the 2000 Survivor Series and is included as an extra on the DVD. It is from 411mania.com, formerly 411wrestling.com, which (from what I have heard) seems to be a reliable source. If so, please put the match back on the article. Here's the site: [2] --Andresg770 16:23, 3 April 2007 (UTC)--Andresg770 15:44, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

- Yeah. It will take a little while to go through my archives and do it, so I will probably wait until tomorrow. TJ Spyke 03:03, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Bryan Danielson
Thank you for your recent additions to this article. However they have been reverted due to: removal of tags asking for citations without providing references for said material, and restoring unreferenced material in violation of WP:LIVING policy. Please see WP:CITE for details on what are reliable sources and how to cite them in the article. Your cooperation bringing this article in line is appreciated. RFerreira 08:22, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, I think enough editors wanted them to stay as stubs for future expansion. Recasting them as redirects would discourage this. My personal opinion FWIW is that they are cruft and I would have preferred to see them deleted or recast as redirect. Herostratus 20:23, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Well, the redirect would take them to the page being redirected to. They would have to sniff out the original page by clicking on the small-font link below the title (if that even comes up, I'm not sure) and then be confident enough to know that they can remake a redirect as a normal article. Whereas if the article doesn't exist, there is a much more creation-friendly message (basically "Doesn't exist! Wanna write it?"). I don't see huge numbers of people searching on Ying Yan Yo! episode titles anyway. They would probably start at the main article, I guess. Herostratus 20:31, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- OOps, what am I thinking, we're not deleting the articles. Brain freeze. Well anyway, even more so: an existing article is a much more congenial invitation to editing then is a redirect. Herostratus 20:35, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
Why do you delete everyone's contributions without reason, did someone drop dead and make you boss of all wrestling entries. Fucking Cena didnt drive the car down to the ring. Its not factual what you have changed it back too —Preceding unsigned comment added by Raginclimax (talk • contribs) .

WM 23 Fan interference

Biographies of living persons
Jimmy Wales, the founder of Wikipedia, has said time and time again that unsourced biographies are not to be permitted, and that adding a series of cite tags and walking away from the article is equally unacceptable. [5] There are serious implications at stake every time we get it wrong, and these policies are in place for just that reason. Its frustrating that such a large segment is so poorly sourced, use this as an opportunity to make necessary improvements as they are identified. This does not mean reverted back to unsourced material in the meantime until reliable sources can be found, if they even exist. If you have any further comments regarding this, please direct them to the current thread on WP:AN for community consideration. Thank you, Can't sleep, clown will eat me 04:19, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Well, I'm sorry you think that. However, I do feel it is notable, and it was notable enough that the announcers usually mentioned it, so I honestly don't understand why you think it hurts to have it on there. --Leandar 23:46, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
- Well in that case, I can understand. Thanks for explaining and clearing it up for me. I really hate when someone just erases a change without explaining and I appreciate you taking the time to do so. By the way, am I supposed to reply to you by doing it this way or on my user page? Just so I'll know for next time. --Leandar 00:05, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm having the same problem as you bp3:16. That, and half my talkpage has magically become bold, or it looks like it on my computer. I checked, and it doesn't look like a coding problem. Wikipedia must me screwing up. Peace, -- The Hybrid

- Its not just the watchlists now. The contrib pages are also messed up. Your comment on my talk page hasn't even shown up on your contribs page. -- bulletproof 3:16 23:34, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
Adding in warnings to articles
Adding in your own personal warning isn't acceptable, and is certainly a sign of controlling in my opinion. I added a talk page section for it: but I can bet only a few people will respond there, which isn't much of a consensus. I think I might consider a request for comment for outside opinions on this: as a lot of wrestling fans (and friends of yours) will obviously be baised to keep some cruft. The dance segment didn't affect the event itself: it's certainly not notable. It was a backstage segment to use time, just as the Boogey Man/Donald Trump segment was (which no one is adding anymore, as it's useless cruft like the dancing is). RobJ1981 05:37, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
WM 24
Why does this PPV even have an article yet? It won't be happening for another year almost. -- The Hybrid 08:25, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
- I didn't create it; but because we have the confirmed location and date. It's the same reason we have an article on next year's Super Bowl (and the Super Bowl after that). TJ Spyke 08:32, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
- Moan, I guess that's as good a reason as any, but it is already being vandalized. I didn't even think that it would exist yet, but them I saw it listed in the WM template. It would be nice to create a project policy stating that we won't create a PPV article until the first match has been announced, but if a new user creates it we won't have it deleted. Peace, -- The Hybrid 08:41, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Survivor Series layout
Well, the editor on the NYR 2006 page I think, uses a good style for the elimination moves. It's on a few other pages as well. In regards to the difference in fans and non-fans, it still makes sense. A non-fan can just click on the moves that they don't know about and find out about them, which is probably what an encyclopedia was invented for, your thoughts? TheHeartbreakKid15 00:06, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
I disagree there. It wouldn't work if it wasn't in the table, but because it's in the layout of a table, it gets away with it. TheHeartbreakKid15 00:28, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey. I've been lookign through your edits (you pop up on my watchlist all the time fixing up pw articles) and I think you'd make a great admin. Before I nominate you though, I'd have to ask you to remove the gfdl tag (abotu preferring fair use) if you accept, only because of how people that frequent rfa are (I dont' have a problem with it, I'm jsut takign precautions).

Wrestler infobox
Despite the disagreement on Chris Jericho it could still be a coincidence you just happened to follow my edits on the infobox straightaway, but I've reverted them. To mark a large edit as minor is the first problem, and then to removed the WP:PW agred templates just because you have a personal problem with them is the second problem. In case it wasn't a coincidence, I'd rather you didn't follow my edits hoping to find something to revert.BertieBasset 11:46, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Could you take a look at The Rockers for me. I did some major rewrites and want to know what you think of it so far. Killswitch Engage 16:17, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Harris Brothers
Merging the information from the Don Harris and Ron Harris (wrestler) articles into the Harris Brothers article would have meant losing the edit histories of both articles. Moving Ron Harris (wrestler) to Don and Ron Harris and redirecting Don Harris and Harris Brothers to this page enabled the page to retain the edit history of the Ron Harris (wrestler) article, which is considerably more detailed than the Harris Brothers edit history. Moreover, Don and Ron Harris seemed somewhat less ambiguous than Harris Brothers, given that a Google search for "Harris Brothers" does not refer exclusively to the wrestlers. McPhail 01:31, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- It is possible for an admin to perform a history merge to have the histories from both articles be kept in one place, BTW. Peace, -- The Hybrid 01:36, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
RE: "Honorary" GM
Christy Whitman was NOT made an honorary WWE Champion; she was simply presented with a WWE Championship for her achievement in the same style Linda McMahon presented Laura Bush with one, WWE presented the Detroit Pistons with one for winning the 2005 Finals and when TNA presented David Eckstein with an X-Division Championship. The child made on-screen decisions and therefore should be added. Thank you for your concern, but I will re-add it. — Chad "1m" Mosher Email Talk Cont. 21:45, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Castlevania DoS platformer

- Ah. I started randomly fixing up articles (well, not random; only games I played and wanted to fix up) in a similar way. First I tried to get a note about Brain Age added to the Sudoku article, then I went to the Brain Age article and noticed it had nothing on Sudoku but its existence, so I wrote a four paragraph description of Brain Age's Sudoku, and then worked on the entire article. Then, I looked at other DS articles and started working on some, and then branched out to other game articles. Fun! - A Link to the Past (talk) 03:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

- That is not a "supermajority" (there is no such thing as a "supermajority"). The majority were actually neutral, and that was only in regards to the DOB template (not the height and weight templates or location). The second one had no opinions either way.

Image problems
Sometimes, Wikipedia doesn't update its cache properly or something, so some new images may not show up initially. Sometimes it is your browser that's the problem.

WrestleMania XV
Look at the broadcast. They said on the beginning that Vince McMahon made the match a No Disqualification match on Sunday Night Heat. Also, even if Mankind was the Special Guest Referee, he wasn't the referee since the beginning of the match.

re: wrestling star
No, it should be called what was decided in the discussion, that being "WikiProject Professional Wrestling Barnstar". Smomo 21:08, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
- That may be, but that was still the name that was decided to be used by the community as a whole in the award process. Feel free to request a change on the Proposed changes page of WP:BAP, but until such a nomination has passed, the name must stay as the one originaly proposed. You've basically just made that name up, and the community hasn't had a chance to decide wether it likes it yet. Smomo 23:05, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
- Oh by all means, I'm not against the title being that, not at all, but the fact is, the community decided on the above name instead, and you are just bucking community consensus in favour of your own name. If you want to get it changed, you must go through the proper process of having it changed at WP:BAP. I'm not against your name, not at all, but you must use the proper process, or the whole system just breaks down. Smomo 11:02, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Your recent block and RfA
I like you as an editor TJ, I do. And this is why I stuck up for you about the indef block and alerted some admins to it, and why I am about to say the following. I don't mean to patronizing, and I don't mean to sound offensive but I feel I need to tell you this in a looking out for you sort of way. You are overall a good contributor this project but I feel you need to watch yourself when it comes to being civil and edit warring and 3RR, especially if you want to be a good admin someday. I've seen several instances where I've sighed and said to myself "why did he say that? people are gonna take that as a personal attack and this gonna screw him for RfA." Just please be careful from now on TJ, breath and think before you type a response, make absolutely sure you have a cool head and nothing you say would violate WP:NPA, and you know already to curb the vios of WP:3RR. Thanks TJ, just had to get that off my chest. Bmg916SpeakSign 23:51, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

You indicated that WWE has not set a theme song for Backlash 2007.

Sources are important
- I agree that BLP is important, but not if you misinterpet it. BLP says to remove material that is (or could be considered) contentious. It doesn't say to remove all material, and Jimbo doesn't say that either. TJ Spyke 06:32, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
- Also, you are not just supposed to delete stuff from your talkpage. You can archive it, if you need that explained to you I can. TJ Spyke 06:33, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
- While BLP only talks about contentious material, WP:V says that any unsourced material can be removed. There's no excuse for articles with no sources, especially ones that have been that way for months. The solution is to add sources where they are needed, which you seem to have been doing. --Minderbinder 12:14, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Wii Article
I noticed that you added citation needed tags to my edit. Rather than just having an edit war over it, I decided to talk to you directly. I wrote it in such a way that citation is not needed; it should be "common knowledge." It is obvious that the Wii uses a four digit code, so no citation is needed. As for the second part, this is also a common knowledge statement, as this is a well known hacking trick. Again, it is obvious, at least to any Wii owner, that there is no limit on how many times one may input the code. It is also known that for a simple four digit numeric password, the number of times needed, plus a little luck, are not too high. As mentioned, even removing one number from the equation will drastically lower the number times needed. Two is just child's play. A computer could easily handle the task in under a second. I look forward to your response. --RockMaster-talk|contribs 01:33, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, I feel that it should be a logical process anyone could follow, provided the necessary information was given. Also, you did not dispute my first claim, correct? --RockMaster-talk|contribs 02:53, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, where would you find a source for the first part? Who would write about such a thing? As for the second, it's really just math, and can be solved with a simple mathmatical equation. Permutations to be exact. Should that be mentioned in the article? --RockMaster-talk|contribs 18:17, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
Admin coaching
I see Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/TJ Spyke discussed above. Here's a little administrator coaching for you: The best contributors to AFD discussions are those that give good rationales that are in accordance with our Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines, based upon efforts to find, to cite, and to evaluate sources. As Wikipedia:Deletion policy says, we don't delete articles because they don't happen to cite sources right now. We delete articles because they are unverifiable. That means that both the article cites no sources and reasonable efforts to find sources on your part come up empty handed. One of the very points of AFD, as explained by the Wikipedia:Guide to deletion, is that it involves more than just two pairs of eyes, putting multiple layers of swiss cheese into the process by having more than just two editors look for sources. That process doesn't work if all that any editors do is come along and say "It doesn't cite sources. Delete it!". That is actually one of the poorest contributions that one can make to an AFD discussion, and one that can lead to quite egregious errors occurring. If you want to be a good AFD contributor, and indeed a good Wikipedia editor in general, always do the research and look for sources. Uncle G 03:41, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Backlash 2007
The Deuce N' Domino vs Kendrick and London match for the WWE Tag Team Championship was NOT announced on WWE.com, and therefore should be taken off of the Backlash page. Although there was a small reference to a possible match in the Power 25, there is absolutely no indication of it on the official Backlash website.
