Section added to Ring of Honor
I added a section detailing the Code of Honor. Please give it a look and tweak as necessary. Tromboneguy0186 08:21, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Wrestler heights
I'm currently seeing edit conflicts on some wrestler bio pages regarding the height of wrestlers. There are generally multiple sources citing different heights, would it be possible to come to some sort of consensus as to which sources are more reliable and should be used? Apologies if this has been raised before, I didn't want to wade through all the archives Sasaki 12:04, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
In the case of wrestlers who do not have specific and sourced records (ie American Football stats)I would put forward celebheights.com a sa good spurce.(Halbared 12:23, 7 September 2006 (UTC))
I'm not convinced celebheights.com should be used as a source at all. The website clearly states the heights can be based on estimates, so it's impossible to tell if any given height is accurate or not. Sasaki 12:27, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Jay and Mark Briscoe
I just noticed, based on the info boxes, that we're asserting that they're twins. Yet in ROH in 2002 there was angle that Mark was "too young" to wrestle in the state of Pennsylvania, which I have heard many times was legitimately true. OWW also gives the same birth date for both brothers. So which is it? Tromboneguy0186 13:06, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Both articles also clearly contradict this, as they state "At the time of the match Jay was 17 and Mark was 16" Sasaki 13:11, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Delirious (wrestler)
Sorry if I'm spamming this page up. There's an anon that seems obsessed with keeping kayfabe or something with respects to Delirious (he has repeatedly deleted info pertaining to the man in real life, as well as the picture associated with the article). I've already left two warnings on his talk page, but I doubt that will do any good. I'm not really sure how to go about getting someone blocked, but I think it will end up being necessary. Tromboneguy0186 13:25, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
I looked at his Obsessed With Wrestling profile. I remember for his real name it used to say "withheld at request of wrestler", now it reveals his real name. That tells me that he no longer minds. James Duggan 02:19, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
Ok, so I did a search on the USPTO for other wrestlers who trademarked their ring names. Aside from Samoa Joe and Delirious, all I found were Joey Styles, Low Ki and Nigel McGuinness. James Duggan 04:40, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
Someone needs to fix the citation on this article. Click it; it doesn't take you to anything. Tromboneguy0186 05:00, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Maybe a screen capture of the relevant info? Tromboneguy0186 09:28, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
Wrestling Style
I was reading some articles on rappers and found it interesting to see explanations of their rapping style/technique. So I was thinking it would be cool to have a section on wrestlers' articles detailing their wrestling style/technique. However, I don't mean every wrestler, just distinct wrestlers (e.g. Kurt Angle's shoot style; Shawn Michaels' underdog style, Bret Hart's technical style, Sabu's high risk-hardcore style, etc). You could even say how wrestling styles were changed (e.g. Steve Austin's technical-to-brawling; Jushin Liger's technical/high flying-to-technical). I realize it is fictional, but other than personalities, wrestling style is the only other way to distinguish professional wrestlers. Well, just wanted to get your thoughts. Perry 19:46, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
If it helps, CageMatch.net (their new English site) lists their styles in each profile. James Duggan 02:27, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
The pro-wrestling tag.
Should the {{pro-wrestling}} tag go on move pages (i.e Sharpshooter (professional wrestling), Backbreaker, Professional wrestling attacks, etc)? Some of them have it but some (most?) don't. Just wanted to ask. --> So sayeth M e t h n o r Sayeth back | Other sayethings
Should Matt Striker get a Controversy section added to his bio?
I mean he used his sick days as personal days to wrestle and made fun of Irwin after his death, he seems pretty controversial to me. So if anyone want to expand his article with that, would it be needed?MonkeyKid 03:28, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
"Captain" Lou Albano
I'm doing a major rewrite on this section. If your interested, let me know on my talk page. Kyros 04:55, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
Up for deletion: Category:Wrestlecrap
While Wrestlecrap itself is notable, a category about it, isn't needed. Put it on a wrestling wiki, not this wiki. RobJ1981 05:19, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
William Welch aka The Messiah and the relationship of Austin Aries and Lacey (wrestler)
Here's a topic I've been meaning to have but kept forgetting about. A while back on the Messiah's page there was an edit war between JB196 and an IP user who I think was the real life Messiah. The edits were pretty much dedicated to removing the documented history of Messiah's relationship with the XPW porn stars and the assault by two home invaders that left Messiah with no right thumb. I was wondering about as this has long died down should we re-add the information?
The second part of this relates to an incident between myself and an IP user who I think is either Lacey or Aries. This IP was dedicated to removing the relationship of Aries and Lacey as well as the incident that had Aries suspended from TNA, along with personal info on Lacey. It is documented that Aries and Lacey are dating but does that fall under the scope of the articles? Currently it's not listed. –– Lid 05:38, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
As for the William Welsh stuff, maybe if we put it in a seperate section it might stick. Sounds like the anon user didn't think it was relevant to his career. Maybe if it was put in a Personal Info section it might stick easier. It being a bio of a person, that stuff should be there. It's not just about his career.

Nearly every wrestling biography ever and the Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)
It was brought to my attention that this is a wikipedia edict at Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Dates of birth and death:
Nearly every wrestling bio uses the wrong formatting and I myself have been guilty of doing it many times. I think this should be added to the to do list as this seems like a rule that I think all of us were unaware existed. –– Lid 09:56, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
I might have missed when this was brought up...but what aboot the commas separating ring names in the infoboxes? Is it policy to have them or not, because I see no consistency.Halbared 13:26, 8 September 2006 (UTC)Wrestling results pages
Here is yet another fancruft/listcruft of results: WWE Saturday Night's Main Event results. Will people ever learn? Wikipedia simply isn't the place for pages of wrestling results. SNME is notable, but all the results listed here isn't needed. SNME is a supercard of sorts, but I don't think the result page belongs here. I added prod, but AFD will probably be added, since I can bet the prod will get removed. RobJ1981 19:55, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
- SNME is not a average show, if you want to help delete useless fancruft, then go to the TNA iMPACT! results pages and vote to delete them. TJ Spyke 21:54, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
The formatting for Matt Hardy's Downfall move.
How should this be done? It's two different moves with the same name, but one is a finisher and the other isn't. To further complicate things, the leg drop version's also called the Hardy Boyz Leg Drop. Setting aside the anon who keeps moving it around all the ti
