RR 08
I thought I would explain why I changed the Kane note. This is only the 10th time Kane has been in the RR, the first two times Glen Jacobs appeared in the match were as Isaac Yankem (in 1996) and the fake Diesel (in 1997). So this was the 12th RR for Jacobs, but the 10th for Kane.  TJ   Spyke   00:43, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Advice Taken
I understand what you are saying.

Trust me, all I was trying to do was make the article a little easier to read and match it up with a similar article so it would be consistent.

The last thing I wanted or expected was a furor.

Please Clarify!!!
Please clarify how accusing me of edit warring is any of your business? When you become a moderator then you may tell me - until then mind your own business.

If you had read the facts you would see that the editing i do is mainly the Angel Williams page as i know her and i also remove external links that shouldn't be there. If you had read the facts properly you will have seen that i removed the link with a valid reason and it's the other guy that won't drop it. I asked him to stop re-posting it until i'd had a moderator look it over - which he blatantly ignored twice.

I run my own fan site so i know exactly what to be looking for and the tell-tale signs. The first is the affiliates. An official site will always be affiliated with another official site i.e. Traci Brooks or SoCal Val's website but no this one is affiliated with the 'official' websites of wrestlers such as Melina Perez (who has said via the wwe website that she has neither a website or a myspace - references can be provided), Kurt Angle (he has an official site but the one affiliated is a different site). There are many more similar ones. Read the content - the content is directly from Wikipedia - copy and pasted. The video's are from YouTube which anyone can add - there is no personal content as with most official websites. The legal disclaimer is the standard one found on any fan site template.

I originally removed that link until a moderator could give me his opinion - which he did today. The other person re-adding the links kept re-adding despite me asking him to wait a few days - sounds a little fishy to me that he is so desperate for this site to be added - a little like someone who has a vested interest wouldn't you say?

So in future i'd appreciate it if you minded your own business unless you know all the facts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Talia madison (talk • contribs) 01:10, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I did take it to discussion - i notice you didn't send him the same message - re-adding a link that has been deleted 3 times is the same thing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Talia madison (talk • contribs) 03:36, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

How is it original research putting Big Show on Raw?

If Raw is the only brand he appears on, then what other possibility is there.

If he doesn't step foot in ECW or Smackdown, but does appear on Raw, how is that not clear that he is a Raw wrestler?

Signature
Are you interested in having a custom made signature for yourself? I'd be happy to make it if you'd like. iMat thew   20  08  17:12, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Here you go. Want anything changed? If not, you can choose either one. iMat  thew   20  08  18:20, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

I know what you did. First of all, which number sig did you want? iMat thew   20  08  21:15, 24 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Go to the top right hand bar, and click on "my preferences". Then you'll be on "User profile." Then go shortly down to "Signature" and type this there. . (To get the code, just click on "edit" in this discussion, and find it.) Then check off "Raw Signature". And save your preferences. iMat  thew   20  08  21:25, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Idk if it worked, since you didn't sign your last message. iMat  thew   20  08  21:29, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry to interfere, but this is how it will work. This is where your sig is, User:LessThanClippers/Signature. Now follow Matt's steps but instead of typing the signature type this in  T r U  C o 9 31 1 01:19, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Are you planning on using it? iMat thew   20  08  23:36, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Re:Rocky Johnson
I must have read the article wrong, I could have swore it started with "was a retired" but I was wrong. Oh well. Thanks for catching my error. :) In any case, he's no longer wrestling, so he has no current ring names anyway. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 02:16, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Infobox 2008
I understand were yer are comin' from, but I figured it'd be easier to have a second option that alittle different, kinda like WCW and the WWF. But I'm lettin' anyone who has a good idea on how to make it better edit it. Who know's, be kinda nice to have a "Sandbox Infobox Template" that we can experement with and see what we can do to make it better. Just a thought. -- Cra sh U  nderride  00:49, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Your report to AIV
Hi, your report to AIV hasn't formatted properly. Could you remove it and try again? I tried to paste the ip address, but it wasn't recognised so there is likely a fault in the report. Cheers. LessHeard vanU (talk) 20:09, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Hello, members and friends of WP:LGBT! I'm not one to be writing newsletters, but I miss our cruise director, Miss Julie, and our project is drifting along with a few leaking plugs in the bottom of the boat. Hey, it happens. Every group we join goes through changes. If Wikipedia weren't so interesting it wouldn't also be so frustrating sometimes. And vice versa. More than one Wikiproject has tumbleweeds blowing through it, but this is one that can't afford to let that happen. Even if you pop in to the talk page of the project, you can let us know you're still around.

WP:LGBT's Role in HIV / AIDS articles
It wouldn't be a proper gay community without a li'l bit o' drama! That's right. If we aren't arguing about something, then we should be asking if we're still queer. Maybe that's for the best, since we know we're still kicking. Our most recent topic is how far the role of our project should go in dipping our toes into HIV/AIDS articles. The main AIDS article was delisted as a Featured Article last month, sadly. (Sending a swift kick to WP:Medicine.) A spirited discussion is available for your entertainment on the WP:LGBT talk page about just how much of HIV and AIDS should we take on. As ever, we'll take your opinions under advisement. We're going to have to, because it doesn't seem to have been settled.

Is Pride POV?
We have a pretty cool sidebar that identifies core LGBT articles. Its symbol is the iconic gay pride flag, much like other Wikiprojects have iconic symbols denoting the topic is a core subject in a series of articles. However, a question recently arose asking if the symbol itself is not neutral. Should a pride flag show up at the top of the article on Conversion therapy? How else would anyone know the article is about queer issues? Is there another symbol that is as widely recognized and that includes all our many splintered facets? At what point do we stop asking ourselves all these questions and just go have a mint julep on the verandah and stop caring?

Harvey Milk and Jim Jones
For the love of all that is holy, no Kool Aid jokes. However, an editor involved in pioneering San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk's article has included a section about the late supervisor's support of Jim Jones and the People's Temple. While it may be accurate, there is a Request for Comment regarding how much emphasis the section places on Milk's support in light of his overall political influence on the city, and indeed the rest of the United States. Milk's article is a sad one in more ways than one. It lacks the detail and heart that honors its subject. Anyone want to do a barter with me? I'll bring Harvey Milk to featured status (give me a month or two so I can read stuff), if you do something of equal value to WP:LGBT?? Make me an offer...

Queer Studies is offensive!
The established branch of study known as Queer studies was brought up as an category for deletion because an editor was offended by the use of "queer" in the title. It was overwhelmingly rejected mostly by the usernames I see here on our Wikiproject page. (A clue that I know you are out there, hiding...biding your time...) So, I wish I could congratulate you, but now I'm all confused by my sympathy for the editor who was offended. So, if you're reading this, Moni has a short memory and can't remember your username. Don't be put off by our demonstrative pushiness. Join us. We can always use involved editors.

Lambda Literary Awards
What can you do to help the project out? Be a wiki-fairy, on many levels. There are all kinds of articles that need help. Why, just this morning I removed those ugly wikify and cleanup tags from four articles at random. If you can put  around stuff, you can clean up articles. There's a list of articles that need attention at the top of the WP:LGBT talk page. Or you can start with the Lambda Literary Awards, where the goddess of my altar received a pioneering award, and was "reduced to rubble" by Katherine V. Forrest's wonderful speech. The 20th ceremony of the Lambda Literary Awards, which celebrates LGBT literature, took place in West Hollywood on May 29th. The page needs to be updated with the new winners, to be found on the official website.

Yeshayahu Leibowitz, Arthur C. Clarke and Bernard Montgomery
Why on earth would someone want to delete material about homosexuality? 'Tis truly a mystery. But these embattled articles have some random evil gnomes removing information that places these folks under our queer umbrella. Help us keep an eye out for the deletions. Take a peek at the articles, familiarize yourselves with the info, and be handy with the undo function in the article history. If tempers flare, take it to the Hall monitors and let them sort it out. Best solution is to make sure your sources are immaculate.

This month's Wiki stars
This is what I get for opening my big fat mouth and suggesting the newsletter should be revived. Here I am writing it. So, to pat self on back (*cough*) Mulholland Dr. became a featured article in May. This is A Good Thing since it is my personal declaration that there is no such thing as lesbian porn. I don't care what Benjiboi says about the video collection at goodvibes. Instead, we have hot women who connect on a deep, personal, soul-touching level, so this film should qualify as some of the skankiest porn available for lesbians. Plus, it's completely confusing and surreal! D'you think Laura Harring would care that the article is featured? I don't think so either... (Call me, Laura!)

Compulsive hoarding of templates
Once I saw a harrowing episode of Animal Planet's Animal Cops where this guy had, like, 250 cats in his house and it freaked me right out. I'm drawing a parallel between 250 cats and, well...three, really, templates in articles involving LGBT issues. Can we stick to one, maybe? In the aforementioned Harvey Milk's article there's a core LGBT template, a link to the LGBT portal, and a sidebar for LGBT rights. Jiminy! You'd think we weren't the folk to set industrial grey carpeting and track lighting in vogue. An LGBT footer was designed to link to articles of interest that aren't the aforementioned core articles. What do you think, can we have either an LGBT template for core articles, a footer for LGBT articles that are high profile but not core, or an LGBT rights template? As ever, anything's up for discussion on the WP:LGBT talk page.

The Violet Quill and magazines
Zigzig20s suggests we create an article on The Violet Quill, as it seems such a milestone in the advancement of gay/queer literature. Members of the Quill all have pages of their own (Edmund White, Christopher Cox, Robert Ferro, Michael Grumley, Andrew Holleran, Felice Picano, and George Whitmore). We need to find more info on the Quill per se to reference the page that we create. Perhaps Google Books - and libraries? - can help.

A number of magazines also need articles, perhaps most notably QW, LGNY, and Lesbian Feminist Liberation.

Mom's nagging for Pride Month
It's June, Pride month. Wear sunscreen, stay hydrated, get a designated driver, then go half-dressed in the streets find a girlfriend or boyfriend, or some homo who's standing there looking lonely and kiss 'em up real good. Remember, it all started 39 years ago when a bunch of drag queens just got fed the f*ck up by the cops raiding the bar and dragging them all out to the pokey again. Rock on, queens! Enjoy your celebrations. My town's is in October, and 200 people attend. I miss Denver.

Fresh faces to brighten our pages

It looks like we've picked up a lot of talent lately. We have no doubt you'll be making your indelible mark on LGBT knowledge as we know it, here at Wikipedia.
