This IP address just went through and changed information on many different articles to information that is incorrect, and keeps adding links to NetworkOne Australia, even though it has no relevance to the article it is being posted in (an example of this can be seen at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Uniform_Resource_Locator&diff=93132086&oldid=93131554 ). Please investigate this, as this user has interfeared with many different articles.

Take responsibility for your own actions. Your standards for notability don't match up with Wikipedia's official standards for notability. You are wrong about your argument that Action Zone Wrestling is notable because it innovated the Taboo Tuesday concept. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Pro_Wrestling_Unplugged. Although PWI innovated concepts such as the Tables & Scaffold match, it was deemed not notable. The concerns that I bring up for Action Zone Wrestling are virtually identical to the concerns that were brought up for Pro Wrestling Unplugged, which was eventually deleted. Either put in some sources to the Action Zone Wrestling article, offer an argument other than a. "your tags are in bad faith" or b. "this subject is notable because it innovated a very minor concept" or be prepared to accept that "importance" and "notability" tags will be put on the article as their placement is entirely 110% warranted and justified, and your removal of such tags constitute nothing short of vandalism.

replies: text: Curse of Fenric is removing tags from numerous articles which have been 100% accounted for as well as engaging in personal attacks, and trying to play it off as if I am vandalizing which I have never done here on Wikipedia. He is also spamming my talk page with "warnings" that have no correspondence to the edits that I have made. Substantial evidence has been provided to argue that Action Zone Wrestling fails WP:NOTABILITY and the importance standards on Wikipedia. I will continue to revert any of Curse of Fenric's edits which are in direct violation of Wikipedia policy. This is not to say that all of his edits are in direct violation of Wikipedia, it is only to say that some are. Now, I politely request that he give up this campaign as it's not doing either of us any good.BooyakaDell 23:35, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

text: 81.155.178.248's edit ignores the fact that Wikipedia templates are available for use when pages appear to go against what is stated in Wikipedia policies which is what they are being used for in this case.

message: I hope I have the right place. The user is misusing the notability tags on articles that I have established to him as notable. The main sources of the trouble are the articles on Professional Championship Wrestling (Australia), New Zealand Wide Pro Wrestling, and Action Zone Wrestling. He has also added the tags needlessly to other wrestling promotion pages that I have removed on the ground of acting on bad faith. I have told the user this, and yet he persists claiming superior knowledge of the rules of notability - forgetting that notability within the profession (pro wrestling in which I am actually involved) is relevant. And then ignoring that same point. This matter is urgent - and I note this user is suspected of being a sockpuppet on his user page. Curse of Fenric 02:15, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
