Regarding The Undertaker
The birthdate has proper sources, and has been discussed between the regular editors of the page, and all the rest of the editors. Do not change it unless you have other sources or reasons that are good enough to change it. Wikipedia is for constructive edits, not your own opinion. Don't just come to Wikipedia to start problems, because thats what your on the verge of doing. Thanks. -- Mikedk9109 ( sup ) ( stalk me ) 20:50, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

The only reason your not seeing it on the talk page is because you weren't for it. I am not dominating the page. I hardly ever edit ths article because of all the edit wars on it, which your starting. The Kennedy and John Cena matches are both week-by-week and are not at all important. Imaging if every match that the Undertaker had with a champion was on here. The article would be 10 times in size, and its fancruft. So, I will delete both references to the Kennedy and John Cena matches. I also don't know what offended you. Reverts are considered minor edits. You obviously haen't read the guide on how to edit Wikipedia. Thanks. -- Mikedk9109 ( sup ) ( stalk me ) 21:13, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi there! I noticed an article of yours has been nominated for deletion (Articles for deletion/The Artists' Studio). I made some comments there which I hope you find helpful, but I'd like to expand a bit. Firstly, please don't take the nomination personally -- new articles from new contributors often do get more scrutiny than anything else, which just means you got the short end of that stick. Secondly, the number one piece of advice I would give to anyone creating new articles is to make sure you have sources in the first version of the article you post -- if you don't have sources yet, think about saving anything you've written to a text file on your own hard drive and keeping it until you do have sources to put with it. That should help you avoid the general nastiness that is the Wikipedia deletion system (which you've now got firsthand experience with). Hope this helps, and happy editing! -- Jonel | Speak 04:10, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Magazine tag
re my adding of the magazine tag to the The Artists' Studio article. This is because the style of writing used in the article is more like one you might see in a local paper, a friendly supportive article, rather than a neutral encyclopaedic entry.

Some the references quoted seemed to be local bulletin boards and therefore can't really be counted as proper independent references. See WP:SPS in particular.

Some parts of the article are also dangerously close to spam. (You're not connected with the theatre in any way are you?)

Have a look at WP:MOS for some good pratical advice in restructuring and rewriting the article. Also have a look at articles on similar theatres elsewhere to get an idea of what you should include.

Making these changes will help ensure the page does not get deleted. You may find its better to clean up just parts of the article and delete the rest for the time being - you can then go back and work on the rest later.

Hope that helps. DrFrench 23:47, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

The Undertaker
Your recent contribution(s) to did not provide specific references or sources. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. Editors may choose to remove material you have contributed if it is not verifiable. Please provide specific references in your contributions to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content. You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. -- bullet proof  3:16 01:01, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The "Cain/Kane the Undertaker" ref cannot be added until a source is presented that can verify what the correct name actually is per Verifiability. The GAB links are still not correct as they lead to redirected pages and not directly to the actual article. The links were properly formatted before your edits, which was another reason why they were reverted. And last but not least, the trivia about Undertaker being undefeated at the GAB is certainly not as notable or as important as his undefeated streak at Mania. I removed it as a non-notable. I hope this cleared up any misunderstandings. If you have any further questions feel free to comment on my talk page. Cheers!-- bullet proof  3:16 03:43, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Dave Bautista
I was informed that you have recently nominated Batista's article as a Good Article candidate. There is pretty much general consensus at WP:PW that the article was not yet ready to be nominated. Also, the procedure for nominating an article is to post a comment on WPT:PW, wait a week so everyone can comment and fix things, and THEN nominate it at WP:GAC. Thanks.
