If you have the QPQ, shouldn't you just make the nomination and say it's a co-nomination/co-creation just so we don't get shot down instantly when they see that I don't have a QPQ. You also know how these DYKs actually work. I've gotten all my previous DYK credits without making any nominations myself or taking any part in any of the discussions. I'll jump in when they have any questions or comments about the DYK. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(talk)09:30, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'll be concentrating on the storylines and aftermath sections as I feel those are my strong suit. Are we doing all sections in the next part and not "saving" them for the final part? リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(talk)03:31, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've written the first version of the storylines section. You're a veteran of this good article thing, so I'm all for you making any edits or voicing any concerns about the section. Same with pictures, I added two, but these can be moved around when you're done with the event section and know which ones you want to use there. I've tried to keep the Japanese sources to an absolute minimun, using them only when I couldn't find the same info in English. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(talk)16:39, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I was actually thinking about cutting all the title matches apart from the IWGP Tag Team Championship and IWGP Heavyweight Championship, since those have absolutely no storyline behind them at all, just some challenges, and since the section's name is "storylines". How do you feel about that? リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(LOLTNA)13:45, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There's not much I could add to the other title match storylines. Omega made his first after signing a contract, had no prior storyline with Taguchi, did not earn his title shot anywhere. Taguchi for the past months had been involved a separate feud with Suzuki-gun. Ishii had no interaction with Makabe, who came out of nowhere to challenge for the title, having been involved in the Bullet Club storyline the past months. Ibushi also came out of nowhere to challenge Nakamura. He had just become a heavyweight, before getting injured and this was his return match. The IWGP Jr. Tag title is just an afterthought, it's always the same three/four teams in the title match with no real storylines ever. Bullet Club, meanwhile, is one of THE acts in NJPW, while absolutely not because of Yujiro, Fale or Jarrett, but I thought Jarrett's involvement in the match would justify this. The Suzuki-gun storyline also explains Pro Wrestling Noah's involvement and led to the whole Noah invasion storyline, which is one of the year's biggest puroresu storylines. The Naito/Styles thing should go, since I added that just to cover all the matches. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(LOLTNA)14:24, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The only thing that struck me was the "Out of Time" name for one of the Time Splitters' move. I can't find it in the sources (they mention moonsault/neckbreaker combo) and the move's actual name is "Outatime", presumably after the license plate of the DeLorean from Back to the Future. Other than that minor thing, it looks good to me. I'm also pretty much done with aftermath section. There's some bits I could add, most notably about Alex Koslov, but don't want to make it too long. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(LOLTNA)12:03, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't found any numbers for PPV buys. There is however one issue, where Meltzer is down on New Japan Pro Wrestling World, stating that NJPW wanted to hit 40,000 subscribers by 1/4 with Tokyo Dome as the driving force, but only hit 20,000 on 1/21. He goes on to state "whatever the psychological reasons are, while Japanese fans picked up on the idea of iPPV bigger than anyone at a $20 to $35 per event price tag, the idea of the streaming monthly service isn't clicking well at all". I don't know if that's something we could use. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(LOLTNA)11:31, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It does say that he's a new kid in the heavyweight division and that he had gained weight. I'll see if I can find anything usable, but the bit may need to be rewritten around that quote. I've added Ibushi to the aftermath section to the bit about Nakamura. I thought it fit there quite nicely, but I'm open to separating it from there to its own bit if you think it should be. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(LOLTNA)13:37, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Ribbon Salminen: Hi, could you help me get the reference details of this Observer piece? I'm considering inserting something into Vince's article. It was posted between February 22-28, 2015. <ref>((cite journal|last=Meltzer|first=Dave|authorlink=Dave Meltzer|journal=[[Dave Meltzer#Wrestling Observer Newsletter|Wrestling Observer Newsletter]]|location=[[Campbell, California]]|title=???|pages=???|date=???|issn=???))</ref> Thank you! starship.paint ~KO11:52, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That bit is from the March 2 Observer ("March 2, 2015 Wrestling Observer Newsletter: CM Punk defamation lawsuit, Brock Lesnar Raw disappearance, state of WWE, and more"). From page 10 to 14. ISSN10839593. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(LOLTNA)12:22, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've been busy outside of Wiki lately so I missed seeing the article finally become a FA. About time, congrats! I'd give you another barnstar but I've already given you two!LM2000 (talk) 00:39, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think so, but thanks. It's back in the article now. Somebody moved it aside for a TAKA Michinoku pic. Shouldn't happen twice. InedibleHulk(talk) 12:58, July 10, 2015 (UTC)
No, that's alright, too. Will probably have an RfC in the near-enough future. If you have an opinion on the matter, you could share it then. InedibleHulk(talk) 12:54, July 11, 2015 (UTC)
First of all, thank you for your work on the Triplemania article I am glad to see someone else work on the Lucha articles, maybe in return I should work on a Japanese wrestling article after I am done with my Triplemania work ;-) I found something that could help give you a little detail for the event section if you need it - http://www.luchalibreaaa.com/eventos-magnos/triplemania/item/1659-noche-de-leyenda-en-triplemanía-xxii.html - it's the official AAA event recap, which yes is a primary source but it is not like anything in there is contentious, I figured it may just give you a few more details to work with.

@MPJ-DK: - unfortunately it is in Spanish... Google Translate is not foolproof - Konnan appears SOCIETY / Puppy says he is too big to bring his dad. I will next a closer look in the future. starship.paint ~KO04:47, 13 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@MPJ-DK: - I'm almost done with the article, all that is left is to trawl through Medio Tiempo. I can't expand the Reception section more unless Medio Tiempo produces something, though. Plus the Gladiators website is dead. starship.paint ~KO02:31, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Disambiguation link notification for July 23[edit]
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited John Cena, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Five Knuckle Shuffle. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
You left a message on my talk page months ago about tag reigns. I've been away because of college. I don't remember replying to you so I came by to drop you a line. --WillC01:55, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I found your peer review for the dome show. Left some comments. Good work. Nice to see someone praising my work a bit with Lockdown and Turning Point. Thanks. Although, for your best interest don't stand by Lockdown too much. I re-did it a couple of years ago to look more like Turning Point. Not exactly FA approved but in name only. My attempt to make sure it didn't get demoted any time soon.--WillC08:43, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Miniapolis: - thank you so much for your extensive copyedit. Your hard work is greatly appreciated. Although, I have a dispute with the removal of the nicknames of moves in the Event section. As such, most of the moves only have their technical names remaining (like kick-brainbuster combination losing the Chasing the Dragon name). Are you strongly opposed to these nicknames? Because fans who watch will definitely be more familiar with move nicknames (called by commentators) than technical names which are not always mentioned. starship.paint ~KO13:06, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Mostafa Elsherbini: - sorry but the answer is no. 1) I wasn't watching WWF/WWE then, I've never even heard of this annual event before you mentioned it, I don't have the knowledge. 2) I don't have the time to do it. 3) I'm not interested in doing it. starship.paint ~KO13:49, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. I need a favor. I had a dicussion in the Template:WWE Personnel and the template was fully protected. However, it was protected a wrong version. I need to open a request, but it's to hard for me (languaje skills, too complex) Can you open the request? User:Wrabbjr902 put all injuried wrestlers as unassigned and some Main Roster wrestlers as NXT wrestlers. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 16:49, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about not reviewing wrestle kingdom. It slipped my mind. If you re-nominate it I certainly will be the first to review it.--WillC15:43, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I honestly couldn't even tell you if I'll be active on here in December. I only come on here for a while before getting distracted. I'm surprised I'm still around this time. Just have to see what happens come December. I think I'll be around. Probably going to be in the cup.--WillC05:03, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
When you renominate it I will review it. Just drop me a line and if I see the message, regardless of whether I'm active or not I will review it.--WillC05:26, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
User:Wrabbjr902 has vandalized Template:WWE personnel on more than one occasion and has violated the 3RR rule. I've already reverted it twice and I even said I wasn't going to edit war with him, but he wants to anyway. He's already been warned by other users, but he blanks his talk page as a response. Can you please help me? -Keith Okamoto (talk) 05:12, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've always wondered if this would happen but I never expected it too. Long time ago, about 6 years I think, I found out how to make a personal signature. I went through alot of versions, with colors, links, phrases (Joe's gonna kill you), etc. I finally settled on WillC since my name is William Chaudoin and I liked the idea of WillC since it sounds like "We'll See". Sounded sarcastic to me. Then one day about 4 years ago I think I ran across another user, User:WillC. I always wondered if his account and my signature would get confused and not until now has that occurred. To answer your question, I didn't write that article and I've never done a bio. Only non-wrestling articles I ever considered expanding was Transformers: Beast Wars, Disturbed (band) albums, Punisher related items, and TNA Impact! (video game) (though wrestling it is a game primarily). You may consult him, he/she may be of help.--WillC05:46, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It is fine with me. I just figured you got me confused with him. I kept thinking one day someone is going to mix the two of us up.--WillC05:55, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. I'm sorry to disturb you again. It's about user Funkatastic. Do you think he has bad behavior and makes personnal atacks? Every time I talk into the tal page, looks like he's attacking me or mocking my opinion. He only says I gave my opinion without arguments. I gave my arguments and he says I'm not cooperating to find a consensus. I'm very burned with him. What do you recomend me?--HHH Pedrigree (talk) 21:10, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I see you've been active on the Carson article. I'd appreciate your help/advice re: the large credibility section I added. Lahaun (talk) 03:40, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your note. At least for the time being, Carson is no longer a surgeon or even a very well paid self-promoter, he's a presidential candidate and, as such, his credibility is of significant importance. And, more than any other 2016 candidate, Carson's appeal to voters is based largely on his personal narrative, his life story as told by him. If that story is false, his viability as a candidate and self-promoter collapses. The fact that Carson is receiving fast and furious media attention about mostly nothing other than his credibility reinforces the notion that his credibility is key to his overall biography. If he withdraws as a candidate, then, maybe the article can be revised, but until then, I think his credibility warrants a level 2 section. Lahaun (talk) 18:33, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

So, hello Starship (can I call you just Starship?).
