message: For this to be a good article, there's gotta be some information on his weightlifting career (a paragraph at least). Right now the biography just starts at 1996, which doesn't make much sense. Wizardman 22:44, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Pre-1996?

message: On RAW's tale of the tape on wwe programing August 31, 2009 in his match with the Big Show, the information read 415 lbs., so should his weight be changed to that instead? Danny Boy 420 (talk) 21:49, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like others are also trying with this, someone changed it to up to 418 which is close to what you proposed, then somebody tried tacked on 105 to get to 523, which sounds more like Big Show's weight. If it's the case he's gained weight I sure hope the profile updates, or if we could find an alternate one. Tyciol (talk) 01:43, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Mark Henry's real weight

message: The same person who increased the height the first time also added 3 inches to his height. There seems to be some sort of desire to make him as big as the Show by fans editing here, but the profile referenced from height and weight currently says 6'1" and 392lbs, not 6'4" or 415/418/523 lbs. I wonder if the 6'4" could be his height in the morning after a good night's sleep and he loses 3 inches from spending a day lifting hundreds of pounds around compressing the spine or something? Tyciol (talk) 01:43, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Height

message: I seem to be misinterpreting this since any addition after his defeat of Randy Orton gets removed. How long ago does something need to occur before w can write it? Or is it that we need to include a reference to be able to list an event? One problem is that the WWE site removes their weekly announcements so even though that's a perfect reference for events, it would turn into a bad link since I can't locate any archives. Taking a screenshot to host is probably also not acceptable. Is it about finding external news sources which talk about the match or plot device as a method of establishing the notability differing from the day to day changes? Tyciol (talk) 00:31, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Here's the thing, per WP:RECENTISM events that have just happened shouldn't really be added unless they're obviously relevant to the individual's overall career (title win, ascension to ME status, etc). It's not the length of time itself, it's it's overall notability to a career. We may find out later his current feud was VERY notable. But we don't know that yet. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 00:35, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

text: *Ah okay, so this would also include brand changes (ECW to Raw in this case) since he didn't actually win Orton's title. There are a lot of show bouts against champions that some people win but which aren't for any titles (like how CM Punk had a match against Matt Hardy) which we should not list right? Actually even if it is for a title, it should only be listed if they actually win the title right? Lost challenges would not meet standards of notability? Anyway if he does end up winning the unified tag team then we can mention the story of how the match was set with the boxer guest host. The only thing I'm wondering is: aren't face changes somewhat notable too? The win against Orton making him a 'favourite' is part of a face change, so mentioning how he's rescued Hornswoggle from Chavo (even if Evan Bourne seems to have taken over this role) seems relevant to building upon how they're doing a face change. It's also notable because it's his first use of an alternate ring name and his first tag team on this new run on Raw (people might mistakenly assume MVP was his first tag team partner if we mention that without anything before it). Tyciol (talk) 18:27, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: If he officially switched brands to Raw, that should be noted. Meaning he's on the Raw roster page on WWE.com I've not been watching lately, so I'm actually not sure. Cross-brand matches are not notable unless the title is won, I can't tell if that's what you're talking about or if he actually switched brands. And if he has turned face, that should definitely be added (with a source). Gavyn Sykes (talk) 19:54, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: To Gavyn, yes he officially switched brands, and it is noted in the article as is the fact he turned face. To Tyciol, I don't see how the thing with Hornswoggle is notable at all. He replaced him in a match once, and then they teamed together in one(?) match, so I wouldn't class it as a tag team, more a random pairing. Orton and Cena have teamed up while feuding, does that make them a tag team? After Henry retires it going to be notable in his overall career that he once replaced Hornswoggle in a match with Chavo? No it's not. I personally think the MVP team is notable, there's a build to the ppv and there have been matches between the two teams or combinations of them in singles matches. The thing to remember with that, however, that we don't add future events to wrestler's articles, because it is impossible to tell whether a future event will become notable in his overall career. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 02:15, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: *Again, it's not something notable in and of itself, it just seems like the progression of the events is notable. When Cena and Orton teamed, one had not rescued the other previously, it also wasn't part of a face change, and they wrestled under their usual names. Also: while defeating Orton made him a favourite, I'm not certain that is what you could call a face change, since heels beat each other up too. I agree with you that the teaming with MVP could be more notable due to the buildup over a couple weeks to a PPV event. Certainly if they win the title it's more important. Even if it was a random team-up though, it's still his first team-up on this new run on Raw right? Coming to the rescue of Hornswoggle was really the first 'good' thing I saw him do. He was already building a more humourous personality when he was doing his smiling and finger-wagging at Orton, but going from that to jumping and clicking his heels and an irish dance is a huge shift in character I hadn't seen him do before. Also, didn't Mark appear on screen one last time when Chavo was looking around for Hornswoggle and he got hit with a flying box and Macaulay Culkin showed up and then Chavo said "what hit me" and Mark was there and said "not me?" or something?

thread_title: Weight check!

message: A number of editors have been adding an entry for Mark Henry on the disambiguation page WSM.  The rationale given for this addition seems to be that Henry is (one of the men to hold the title of) World's Strongest Man and that the letters "WSM" appear on his tights.  Neither of these is grounds for an entry in a disambiguation page, which is intended to distinguish between the names of entities.  This article makes no claim that Henry is actually known by the name "WSM", so I am asking now that if he is indeed normally referred to as such, this alternative name be added in bold to the lead paragraph, and that a citation be provided.

No actual mention of him having any sisters though (just an older brother), which is probably why he felt comfortable saying it.
