thread_title: Removal of Referees?

message: I looked this over today and it's looking good. There are few things I wanted to mention:
#The lead is probably too short. It's supposed to be 2-3 full paragraphs for an article around 30KB, and this article is 46KB.
#:
#What is a "Handicap No Disqualifications Champions Only" match? An explanation of what this means would help.
#:
#Pectoral muscle could use a wikilink.
#:
#"Khali's Punjabi-style celebration" leaves me wanting to know more (ie. what does that mean?). Since an explanation would probably move too far away from the article, "Khali's celebration" might be better. This is just my opinion, though.
#:
#"..forcing him to quit after hitting his left knee repeatedly with a steel chair while upside-down on a steel lighting structure" is a little confusing.
#:
#I don't watch wrestling, so I'm a little confused. Were Hardy and Porter feuding? The challenges (admittedly, beer drinking and pizza eating don't demonstrate hatred, but they are challenges nonetheless) seem to indicate a rivalry, but they apparently also won the tag team championship at the same time?
#:
#Who did The Great Khali attack after the I Quit match on September 7? "He" could refer to either Mysterio or Guerrero.
#:
#A reference for Orton interfering on August 27 is needed.
#:
#You explain that a title can't change hands by countout or disqualification, but this explanation is given the second time that a champion retains a belt by disqualification. It should be moved to the first time this happens (Khali-Batista).
#:
#The last line ("Orton had kicked in his head") doesn't seem right. Should it be "had kicked him in his head"?
#:
#Per the discussion on the WP:PW talk page a while back, it's generally preferred to use a word like "performed" rather than "hit" when someone executes a move. This helps to clarify that wrestling is not real and helps avoid the "in universe" problem.
#:
Just a few minor things there, and I think it's looking good for nomination after giving other people a chance to look it over. GaryColemanFan (talk) 21:34, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Why would you source the whole paragraph? Would you source every sentence? Also, the date and venue are already sourced in the article. --Cheers, LAX 02:44, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't mean every sentence. Forget it, I guess. I meant the date and venue should be sourced in the first paragraph, but I guess not either. Forget it too, iMatthew 2008 02:48, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is sourced in the first paragraph. Look at this ref. --Cheers, LAX 02:55, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pre-GA review

#It is reasonably well written.

#It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
#:a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):  b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

#:Pass/Fail: 
#:: </div>
Issues:
*relevance of specific details of the Cena/Carlito match. Information on Orton's involvement is sufficient.
*:Orton did nothing really. All he did was come out to the ring and distract Cena. So, IMO, interfered is what should be there. –Cheers, LAX 15:52, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: GA pass

message: *Source that lots of people backstage were against the Jackass angle - Full QUOTE: Early SummerSlam Notes, HUGE heat on upcoming Jackass angle that was almost cancelled - Submitted by Calvin Martin on Saturday, June 9, 2007 at 9:37 PM EST
*Source stating "Jackass" plans scrapped
*SLAM! Sports Report - Gives the event a rating of 6.5/10 (Highest match rating 7.5/10 for WWE title match, ECW title match & Rey/Chavo; Lowest match rating 1/10 for World title)
*WrestlingRevealed Review - Calls matches disappointing (especially Khali/Batista), skits good, especially MVP/Hardy/Austin. 
*TheWrestlingFan Review - Shares same view as the other two on Khali/Batista, also says on whole PPV was "just above average". Out of the three reviews, they all share the same view that Khali v. Batista was crap!
*Source with the ten superstars that were suspended days after the event. Needs to be included in aftermath, you need to note certain superstars were off TV e.g. Chavo. Quote from article: "On September 7 edition of SmackDown!, Mysterio defeated Chavo Guerrero in an "I Quit" match." - you need to note this was to get Chavo off TV due to the suspension.
Hope this helps. D.M.N. (talk) 17:06, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Sources for PPV reaction + other stuff

message: This article is a well written good article, that is fully sourced. However, during it's FAC, it was pointed out that CompletWWE.com and WrestleView.com are not reliable, however, they are not false reporting/speculating websites like Wrestlezone.com, which at WP:PW is considered unreliable. However, CompleteWWE.com is a website that uses magazines from WWE and uses other sites to report their information, found hereand WrestleView is an established website that has been running since 1997 and reporting Wrestling News, with established reporters, found here. So is CompleteWWE.com and WrestleView.com reliable?--~S</font>RS</font>~ 23:49, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with Zginder.  From the descriptions, they seem reliable enough (unless, perhaps, they're used to back up controversial claims).  Powers T 14:22, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  RFC: CompleteWWE.com & WrestleView.com reliable? 

message: Do we really need the words "as part of the storyline" and "due to scripted events" in every sentence? its kinda annoying and is very pointless  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jbhsfootball28 (talk • contribs) 20:15, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
