Undiscussed move contrary to recent RM consensus
Hello. Your (apparently undiscussed) moves of MNM (wrestling) seem to be contrary to the consensus established in a recent requested move discussion (see Talk:MNM (wrestling)). I see that you are also moving a lot of other pages. I suggest that those moves may not be appropriate. One problem that I see with some of those moves is that you have often removed the clarifying word "wrestling" from titles – resulting in titles that make it unclear to the reader what is the subject of the article. For example, the title "MNM (stable)" does not indicate that it is about wrestling. To most people, a "stable" is a place to house horses. —BarrelProof (talk) 20:16, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
 * That move has been reverted. I also just submitted a set of technical requests (please see this page version to revert some of the other moves that removed "wrestling" from titles. —BarrelProof (talk) 23:46, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

File:BrayWyattRoyalRumble.png
Hi, I don't think this photo you uploaded has the correct licence. It's not cc-by-sa, it's actually cc-noncommercial-sa, which is not valid for Commons at least, not sure if for en.wiki. It's a great find and more photos from that set can be used in the PPV's article, so I was wondering if you could contact the photographer to request a change of license to cc-by-sa. starship.paint (talk &#124; contribs) 09:19, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Brian Black


A tag has been placed on Brian Black, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.
 * It appears to be a clear copyright infringement of http://bcb47.wix.com/bcb4#!biography/c1enr. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

File permission problem with File:DiscoInfernoApril2008.png
Thanks for uploading File:DiscoInfernoApril2008.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

Regarding this edit
Hi, could you give the exact |quote= from the book to back this up to include in the reference? I can't read the whole book online. starship.paint  ~ ¡ Olé !  10:53, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

, here is the quote. I've added it to the article reference. McPhail (talk) 22:06, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

"Since I came back in 2007 with my new finish of the Codebreaker, I wanted to come back in 2012 with a new move as well. I had the idea of doing a sliding forearm to the face and calling it Apocalypse Now. I practiced the move a dozen times with Lance, making tweaks along the way. It looked badass and I was excited to start using it as soon as I returned. [...] I actually only used the move once, during a match with Kofi Kingston in Dubai. But I decided I didn't have the time or the patience to get it over and I gave up on it after a few weeks."

4 lost US title reigns
I found 4 errors in the United States title history on wwe.com Firstly, Paul Jones' 2nd reign ended November 28, 1976. That is recognized when clicking on the specific reign. But when clicking at the reign by Blackjack Mulligan, it states December 15. According to every wrestling site, Paul Jones is a 3-time US champ and there was no vacancy or anything to explain the gap between November 28 and December 15, so I think WWE forgot the 2 title changes between Paul and Blackjack. Same thing happened in 1980 with Greg Valentine, where they didn't recognize a 4-month title reign, beginning on July 26, which is the date where Flair lost his title according to wwe.com So in the end, these are 4 missing reigns.

Do you know anything about this? Do you think they forgot to add them? Do you know how to contact them to fix it? WrestlingLegendAS (talk) 11:48, 24 April 2015 (UTC)


 * , I'm not sure about WWE.com, sorry. If there are reliable sources that the WWE information is wrong then of course we shouldn't include it on Wikipedia. McPhail (talk) 18:16, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

Currently, Wikipedia does include these 4 lost reigns, and rightfully so. I just hope that in the future nobody just copy pastes wwe.com and gets rid of these 4 forgotten reigns. WrestlingLegendAS (talk) 22:20, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

IC
Hi. Talking about unofficial reigns. An IP is adding Bob Holly as IC Champion. Can you help us? According to WWE.com and other sources, Holly won a match against Jeff Jarrett, but the referee saw jarrett's foot under the ring rope and reversed the decision and declared the title vacant. (http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/columns/misc/danclark01.html) That means, Holly never won the title, nor official or unofficial. WWE.com never mention Holly as IC champion (not even in WWF.com in 2001). However, the IP says WWF used to recognized Holly as IC Champion. Only source he gave me, http://slam.canoe.com/Slam/Wrestling/Bios/holly-hardcore.html. I know the match happened, but I think it's a reversed decision, like Jericho as WWE Champion or RVD as WWE Champion. What do you think? --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 10:31, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
 * , I agree that Holly should be be included. Even the Canoe.com article refers to Holly as an "unofficial" champion. McPhail (talk) 15:29, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Do you think so? I mean, it looks like a Dusty finish, a reverted decision. Like Jericho didn't won the title from HHH or RVD didn't won the title from Taker. Canoe says he is a unofficial champion, not a formerly recognized champion and other sources tell us the decision was reversed. I appreciate you'll tell us your opinion in the talk page. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 18:40, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry, that should have been should not be included. D'oh! McPhail (talk) 19:15, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Hello, sorry, I missed this. From the link the 1999 PPV the editor provided, there clearly was a time when the WWF recognised Holly as a former champion, so I would agree it should be referenced somehow. I don't really have a strong opinion on the best way, though. Sorry, appreciate that's not much help! McPhail (talk) 19:23, 31 May 2015 (UTC)

Ivan - I am the one who added the edits about Tito Santana in the lead, and the part about his first stint in IWCCW back in 1991. Wikipedia emailed me and thanked me for my edits. Santana did wrestle for IWCCW back in 1991 and I left a good reference. I have references for the edits that I left, and I wouldn't of left the info if it was not accurate. I have restored my edits, but I have also left the stuff you added about santana in the lead as well. I don't think there was any reason for deleting the edit that I left about Santana's first stint in IWCCW back in 1991 or the edits in the lead.

Ivan- I have taken the part you deleted in the tito santana aticle about WresttleMaina, and merged it with the El Matador edit. I have changed some things and added in new stuff. It is now called El Matador and Wrestlemaia legacy. Why did you delete it?
