Request for Review
Could you take a look at 2007 ACC Championship Game and let me know if there's anything I need to change? It's up for FAC review right now, and any comments or support would be appreciated. Thanks! JKBrooks85 (talk) 21:25, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Whether or not you think it's ugly, those serve a purpose here on Wikipedia and therefore should not be removed without good reason. "They're ugly" is not a good reason. I'm not going to blank your user page simply if I feel it's ugly.► Chris Nelson Holla! 08:11, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Madden 08
clearly you are delusional because that was no vandalism, the whole section is pointless and not needed--Yankees10 21:15, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

I dont mean to be an jerk (for for calling you delusional), but i'm sorry that isnt vandalism--Yankees10 21:18, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

again, it is not vandalism and I reverted the edit after your second message--Yankees10 21:22, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

it is pointless there to and should be removed there to, but im not going to remove it because I dont want to really discuss this anymore, I dont really usually edit the Madden articles anyway--Yankees10 21:28, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

yeah so did Darrell Green, Andre Tippett, Fred Dean, Gary Zimmerman, and a couple of other guys I forgot--Yankees10 21:42, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

yeah it was about time, he should have gotten in a while ago--Yankees10 21:46, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Madden
Im sorry to, your right I should have gone to the talk page before I got rid of it--Yankees10 23:12, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

ok, same here--Yankees10 23:16, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

3RR?
I reverted a WP:ENGVAR vio = 1. Where are the other 2? Are you perhaps looking at the wrong page? 156.34.213.34 (talk) 02:52, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I reverted the Black Sabbath article more than once? Are you sure you're lookin gat the right edit history? 156.34.213.34 (talk) 03:01, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * so 1 valid edit to rm a WP:ENGVAR violation = 3 reverts??? 1 doesn't equal 3 + it was a 100% valid edit??? I am still not sure which article you mean? 1=1 . 156.34.213.34 (talk) 03:08, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

I am still not seeing it. I didn't put the "and present" text in that article. It's been there for months. And I rv'd it simply because that article gets hit with a lot of vandals who are trying to rm any reference to Black Sabbath still being active (the anti-Ozzy crew). The common practice from most regular editors on that article is to restore all "active" references into the page to keep it consistent throughout. And, in the end... that's 1 valid edit on my part... and you gave me a 3RR warning for it? Do you understand what 3RR is? One doesn't break the policy (which is actually 4 reverts back to the same earlier version not 3) by making 1 valid edit? I don't want to sound picky. I had over 20000 edits with my old user account before I decided to reject it for the purity of anonymous editing. And I have rolled over 30000 edits as an IP. I've been editing Wikipedia almost as long as there's been a Wikipedia to edit. And that's the first time I ever received a 3RR warning for doing 1 valid edit. If you need help understanding 3RR or any other policies don't hesitate to ask. 156.34.213.34 (talk) 03:21, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

You're wrong about Warrior.
Sorry, pal, but Warrior was right. Ledger's daughter is better off without a drug addicted father in her life. Drug addicts deserve no respect. Warrior a homophobe? No. He's just against gay propaganda. Warrior won't kill himself either, so you lose. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.202.242.152 (talk) 20:54, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Jahleel Addae
Well, he said that Bill Stewart and the coaching staff wasn't pursuing as hard anymore. And with Butch Jones, who was with Rich Rod at WVU for awhile (incase you don't remember him lol), at CMU, Jahleel went ahead and went there. They run the spread as well.

But we can blame it on RR. lol John (talk) 22:02, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Shark Boy
If you will check the "Stone Cold" Steve Austin Wikipedia Page, then go to the "Austin 3:16" portion of the page, and you will clearly see it says whipped not whooped. Also, I've never heard him on television say "whooped", it's always been "whipped". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Superwhitekid (talk • contribs) 01:54, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Fair enough but why did you delete the reference to Stargate Universe altogether.There was no need to delete everything. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Riddeller (talk • contribs) 21:17, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah man, good job with those. It really helps alot when you fix my mistakes, since they're usually everywhere. lol I've been gone all weekend, and that's why I never got the chance to check them out. John (talk) 01:22, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

I'm not exactly sure. He's actually from Africa? I thought he was from NY. John (talk) 23:26, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Your RfA
Hi Crash Underride. I'd advise you to withdraw your current request for adminship since a strong consensus is emerging against you being promoted. Your willingness to help Wikipedia is appreciated, but it appears that you are not yet ready to be given the tools. Withdraw2ing now would save further discussion and may be looked on favorably if you decide on another RfA in the future. Good luck and I hope that you continue to make good contributions to Wikipedia. Gwernol 13:13, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Your request for adminship was unsuccessful
Good Morning Crash, unfortunately, I closed your recent request for adminship per the generally accepted snowball clause for RFAs that are not likely to succeed. I personally believe you do have the potential to become a user who could be promoted to administratorship in the near future, especially in consideration of the clear dedication you put in. Try to ensure that you take all the criticism in the oppose section constructively, and most importantly, communicate with those that voiced their opinion in your RFA and by discussion you will eventually find a better ideal of what is needed in an administrative candidate and even try to look for improvements in yourself. I would also like to suggest that you seek an administrator coach who will eventually assist you in your development and give you general tips on the community on Wikipedia. Regards, Rudget . 16:30, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * No I don't think he contributed to the discussion. I'm sure you'll do fine though. Rudget . 18:34, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Infobox 2008
I don't really see how this is more beneficial than the current infobox TBH. Having both their name and birthname is redundant (since only a handful of wrestlers have legally changed their name, so 99% of them would have the same name for both) and their birth name is posted in the first sentence.  TJ   Spyke   00:09, 28 February 2008 (UTC)


 * (x-posted) I'm inclined to agree with TJ. Also, if we had decided on adding the birthname, we could have just added it to the other template instead of making a new one. Nikki  311  00:24, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * (x-posted) I Agree with Tj and Nikki   Less Than  Clippers   00:43, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * What's up wtih your shouting response? You wanted opinions and I gave my opinion (in a very respectful manner). I don't see what this new infobox adds that would make it better than the current one.  TJ   Spyke   00:54, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, haha. I didn't see that.  TJ   Spyke   00:57, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

I have deleted the image. In the future, if there was another image that you uploaded and wanted deleted, you could just put or  (for user pages) on the page or image. MECU ≈ talk 13:48, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

WWE/TNA Plug
Are you sure it's an honest plug for TNA? I mean, it seems very fishy that WWE would practically ignore TNA for all this time, with wrestlers making the odd subliminal jab at them in promos from time to time, and then turn around and promote them so openly. I don't think it's an honest plug, myself, but hell - it could be. It's just very weird. I mean, all the other news on the "Industry News" portion of WWE.com is WWE-related.. Th 2005 (talk) 18:05, 29 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Seems I spoke too soon. The sister site of PWTorch.com, ProWrestling.net, is reporting that it's not a mistake. Huh. Still weird. Th 2005 (talk) 18:11, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
