—Project

As part of the project's New Year's Resolutions, there is an ongoing effort to decrease the number of stubs to 10%. As of August 16, we are at 12.09%, with 518 articles currently in Category:Stub-Class Professional wrestling articles. It still would be greatly appreciated if members would expand, source and improve stub articles, and a list has been placed on the stub article subpage of stub articles of well-known wrestlers and tag teams that should be fairly easy to improve.
Based on the members list, there are currently 230 members participating in WikiProject Professional wrestling.

Editing Tips

This is a section in the newsletter devoted to help familiarize project members with the Manual of Style and general editing tips.

The project's New Year's Resolutions are listed here, and a list of topics that are close to Good topic status is listed here. Consider helping by achieving an aim listed or by improving an article on the Topics list to Good Article status.
If you come across an article that fails notability requirements, you can tag it for speedy deletion if the criteria apply, propose it for deletion, or nominate it at WP:AFD.
If a sentence seems to be untrue or does not have a source, add a ^{[citation needed]} tag directly after it. In the case of biographies of living persons, if the material is contentious and either unsourced or poorly sourced, it should be removed immediately.
Avoid overlinking in an article. If a subject has been linked once already in the body paragraphs, there is no need to link it again. Lists are the only exceptions to this policy.
Do not give undue weight to recent events in articles.

It has not merit to be in his main article let alone under that header. His discography page may be more appropriate. But if we are to mention that one particular song, we should mention every song he has released since announcing that particular album. --H E L LØ ŦH E R E 16:34, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

In truth, he's already done a few songs with Wayne. To mention any of them would not be needed unless they're confirmed to be on the album. --H E L LØ ŦH E R E 16:59, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
