Nicknames

 * Quick note, Megumi Fujii's nickname is Mega Megu (as in Megumi), not Mega Mega. Just thought I'd toss that out there.Thaddeus Venture (talk) 05:06, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Also this looks great, although they may remove the image file from your user account page, so you'll have to re-insert it in the final product, at least that's what happened to me.Thaddeus Venture (talk) 05:19, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks! Yeah, I thought there was something odd with Fujii's nickname. They also removed the image on me, twice, once on my talk page and once on the user page. You haven't had any problems with them deleting it on the final product have you? Bhark85 (talk) 13:46, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
 * No it's it will be fine once published. They just don't want people using their wikipedia accounts for image storage.Thaddeus Venture (talk) 04:41, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Blagoi Ivanov's MMA record
I have found three different locations with 3 seperate records for Blagoi Ivanov. Sherdog has him listed as 4-0 (1 NC), Bellator has it 8-0 and his wikipedia page has it 10-0 (1 NC). I want to go with the page with the most fight but it wouldn't be correct to cite a wiki page. Bellator doesn't count his no contest so I dont wanna go that route. and sherdog doesn'y seem to have all his fights. Any suggestions?

sources: http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Blagoi-Ivan , http://www.bellator.com/Fighters.dbml?&DB_OEM_ID=23600&FIGHTER_SPID=82397ov-50154 , Blagoi Ivanov Bhark85 (talk) 18:03, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Sorry it's taken so long to get back to you on this, I have very little time for anything other than work on the weekends. I would use his wikipedia record and leave it unsourced, and then send a message to whoever created his wikipedia page asking for their sources. I looked and the ones they have posted are crap. If they can't give you any then just go with his bellator record and cite it to the bellator fighters page.Thaddeus Venture (talk) 15:56, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Seasons Tournaments Winners
I was thinking of somehow incorporating some sort of key symbol or phrase next to a fighters name who has won one (or more) of the bellator season's tournaments. Because a big part of Bellator's main focus is on their tournaments & its champs. With their winner becoming champs or then getting title shots if there is already a current title holder. Although, I am sill trying to keep it simple and avoid clutter. As many of the winners are also the current champions, I know that they would be two feilds in the name box, one for weightclass Champion another for Tournament Champion. Which I dont necessarily mind, but I want to avoid clutter and have it straight to the point as well. I messed around with it both with (T)'s and w/ Season # (as seen in the welterweight class). Any ideas to remedy this, please let me know, I'd appreciate it Bhark85 (talk) 18:03, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Actually, on second thought (and a nights sleep) I'm going to nix this idea. At least for now. Bhark85 (talk) 13:06, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Bellator Weightclass Champions links
Another goal is to setup a link with the "(C)'s" that goes straight to the Bellator weightclass champ's history much like the the one on the List of current UFC fighters page. I was having some trouble with this. Bhark85 (talk) 18:03, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Fixed it for you, at least with heavyweights. Just make a link to the "List of Bellator champions" with a hashtag "#" and then the name of each belt for the proper fighter (i.e. "Heavyweight Championship") and it will link properly.Thaddeus Venture (talk) 17:33, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
