RE: fail?

If the editors of the article have not addressed the concerns and it has been over two weeks...then yes. Nikki311 02:33, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Can I get your opinion on something? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:45, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Somehow, I have second thoughts on the Royal Rumble '05. IDK, what do you think? Did I do a fair job by letting it be on hold or should I fail it? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:52, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Alright, I'll go with that. The reason I ask, is cause I saw your review for ONS '07 and I thought that maybe that the RR should fail too, due to a whole lot of work that needs to be done. But, I'll go with your word. Thanks. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:56, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

IDK, this is the first time I ask someone for advice when it came to reviewing an article. Weird. Maybe because its a PW article, IDK. Hey, would you be interested in reviewing an article that does not relate to PW? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:04, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Do you still want me to help Kevin come up with some question's for the EOTW, since it's up for deletion? #1 Metallica Fan Your Hancock 17:36, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

The brownies were delicious. Thank you very much. --Sharkface^T/_C

Thanks for the "special" brownies. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:15, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks a lot man. Cheers, -The Hybrid- 05:56, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Matt, not to count you wrong, but you didn't give Vengeance '05 a pre-GA, Gary did. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:47, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

OMG, I don't know how/why I did that. I guess I wasn't paying attention, sorry! I've removed it. King iMatthew 2008 00:51, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Its cool, like I said, not to count you wrong. ;) Also, you did promise me a pre-GA review for Vengeance '06, but your probably busy. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:33, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

I added it to your to-do list and remember that conversation we had about the way I write PPV's? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:37, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, when you have time; I'm not saying you should do it now, but in your free time, though. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:40, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Work on what? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:31, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, your sort of taking "ownership", by asking me to let you work on the article alone. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:39, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh, I totally get what your saying. Sorry about that, I haven't slept all day and I'm a bit off. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:49, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh, I thought that you were just trying to "answer" the questions better. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:41, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh, well I don't feel like going back, but you should be careful next time of what you do. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:46, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Admin coaching, huh?

Hey, SRS here!

Long time, no...um....you know. So, "King" iMattthew, as it says in your sig, I hear you're coaching for admin rank. What exactly is admin, anyway? I've thought about going for that rank in the future, but Hybrid says it's stressful. So, what is it?

Peace Out! :-) SexySeaFlounder^{The $R$} 03:43, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Name changes

With all the name changing conversations going on, you think it could help avoid future disagreements if the individual wrestler naming convention conversation is moved to the corresponding wrestler's article talk page (after it is resolved, of course)?

So, if someone comes along and thinks Santino's page should be moved to his real name, the entire convo can be found on his talk page rather then having to dig through WP:PW's talk archives. --Endless Dan 13:06, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

If you would, please. I'm about to go home for the day so I will not have enough time. Thanks, mang. --Endless Dan 20:45, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

RE:Barnstar

Ha, thanks for the barnstar Matt! It means a lot to me. Um, could you put it on the barnstar page for me; I can't figure out how that formatting works :P. Cheers, -The Hybrid- 01:07, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

IDC now. When you do have an edit conflict, you shouldn't just copy and paste your work. When doing so, you completely remove valid contributions others have made and replace everything with what you have done. For example –Cheers, LAX 01:43, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

If I said that, I didn't mean it like that; but whatever. Just be a little more careful next time. ;) –Cheers, LAX 01:49, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

I saw on your user page something intitled "Admin coaching" what is that and what is the purpose? #1 Metallica Fan Your Hancock 01:52, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

RE: SummerSlam 1989

My plan was to start on SummerSlam (1989) pretty soon. I'll go ahead and claim it at the PPV expansion page. I want to wait until SS '88's FAC is closed first. Nikki311 02:46, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure, yet. Nikki311 22:26, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Re:2005 WWE Draft

Alright. Hopefully this can pass FL, because the 2007 WWE Draft looks better IMO, and it failed its FLC, because of lack of media attention. Should I put the 2007 one for PR as well?--SRX 15:52, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Cool. Lets see if we can get them both to FLC, and to make it look like we really want to pass these, Im creating the 2004 WWE Draft.--SRX 16:12, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

What, the draft of WWE?--SRX 16:32, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Cool. --SRX 16:42, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Does my user page look to long to you? O and Have you herd of ProWrestlingOhio? It doesn't have a article do you think it's notable enough? ZACH 17:58, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

User:IMatthew/Sandbox

I like it. I think it would be best probably called 2007 in World Wrestling Entertainment. The format looks good and I can see this becoming a pretty good article. It might be worth outlining the feuds in the lead when you come to it. D.M.N. (talk) 21:14, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Also, for instance under the Backlash heading, will you be having a little summary of events between Backlash and Judgment Day. Also, the WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, SummerSlam and Survivor Series sections should have more detail than the rest IMO. Good work so far, and it may be worth informing WP:PW about it. ;) D.M.N. (talk) 21:17, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

It might be worth also talking about some real-life event. I note you've already noted the Benoit death and Jackass involvement in SummerSlam, but also about the 10 suspensions. D.M.N. (talk) 14:45, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

I'll provide a link to LAX directing to this discussion. D.M.N. (talk) 14:48, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

My talkpage is Semi-Protected. All semi-protection means is that IP's can't edit it, and that any accoutns under 3 days old cannot edit it. I could ask for it to be fully-protected, but then I wouldn't be able to edit it! D.M.N. (talk) 19:37, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I think at first me and him got into a dispute over Ashley Massaro to do with Survivor. The dispute escalated, which led to me accidentally being blocked for 3RR. From there, I noticed he created a single account in the dispute on the Massaro article. He was blocked indefinitely in September, see the SSP case. As for the "framed" thing, well, I have no idea. I'm sort of surprised he isn't targeting anyone else's talkpage, for instance the users that have blocked him. D.M.N. (talk) 19:44, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I've totted up a list of the amount of socks he has. Feel free to take a look. D.M.N. (talk) 20:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

TBH, I think you should rework that page, and eventually call it 2007 in World Wrestling Entertainment. I think it could turn out to be much better quality than just focusing on the PPV's. You vould have sections on major storylines on SmackDown, and I think as a whole it would look better. If it was like that, then you would also be able to have a section on major real-life issues, for instance the Benoit tragedy, the ten suspensions and so on and so forth. You could also have a business aspect of the article, how PPV buys compared to the previous years. Just a thought. D.M.N. (talk) 20:20, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
