Tag Team Partner
Oakster, I need a tag team partner. I'm working on a couple of articles and I was wondering after I made the initial changes, if you would glance through and make corrections. If you go to my user page you will see some of the articles I've worked on and that I've made some serious positive overhauls. Thanks! Kyros 00:27, 1 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I understand about the exams. I will work on the articles and drop you a message. You can get to it when you get a chance. Thank you. Kyros 17:42, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Pictures
Just a quick note to advise you that the author of the photos which I used on the Lisa Marie Varon and Sean Morley (plus assorted others) has changed the license back. Seems like his daughter went to help him upload more wrestling photos to his Flickr page and set the licensing wrong. Tabercil 14:22, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

RR 2007
Can you fix the Batista link in the notes section? It should be "Dave Bautista", not "Dave Batista". TJ Spyke 21:05, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Doctor33
I think he may have created another sockpuppet: User:A2007, the account was just created today but has already done the same type of nonsense. I'm telling you since you reported him the first time. TJ Spyke 23:58, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I found a new sock of his. see User:D12111's contribs. What is up with this guy?-- bullet  proof  3:16 06:21, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
 * AHHHHH!!! He's back as User:D12111 again!!!!-- bullet  proof  3:16 03:34, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Montreal screwjob FAC
Hi Oakster - observing your interest in professional wrestling articles, I request you to have a look at this article and weigh-in on its FAC. As you can understand, there is a paucity of interest in the subject around here so I do value your input. Rama's arrow 20:16, 24 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi Oakster - I reiterate my request for your input on the FAC. Please do have a look and comment at Featured article candidates/Montreal screwjob. Cheers, Rama's arrow  22:04, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Verdict
Thanks, Oakster. This user occasionally changes the image names. I thought I had the images on my watchlist but it turns out I didn't. I should be able to pick up Verdict socks more quickly in the future but please notify me of any I haven't caught. Hopefully fewer will slip through now. Just an account name is fine, I can quickly block and then roll back any edits so there's no need for you to even revert the changes. I appreciate your efforts at keeping this particularly troublesome user out of Wikipedia. --Yamla 23:07, 5 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Once again, thanks. This guy is one of the most annoying vandals on the Wikipedia.  At least he's not one of the most damaging.  --Yamla 19:50, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Wow, I just realized I was the last contributer before you. I wanted to let you know I certainly did NOT make those edits, I must've missed them rv'ing the vandalism that I did. Thanks for sweeping up after me. B mg 9 1 6  Speak to Me 16:09, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Sortkeys
I started a discussion at Template talk:Sortablename, since there seem to be a number of unconnected efforts to create sortkeys for sortable wikitables. ~ trialsanderrors 20:56, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

WM23
I know Undertaker didn't, but I think the druids came out to "O Fortuana" (I say I think because i'm not sure if the music was the same one the druids came out to at WM XIV). TJ Spyke 22:34, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Confirmation for Image:Michaels-sweetchinmusic.jpg
Hey, I copied the response from my e-mail and put it on my talk page, got the link and put it on the image discussion page. Would that help? Zerorules677 15:42, 03 April 2007 (UTC)

Template:sortable date
Hi, I saw that you had created template:sortable date, but this is redundant with the existing template:dts. I saw that you had only transcluded this template on a single article, which I have already switched to use the more widely used 'dts'. If you agree, I can speedy delete 'sortable date' to clean things up. Thanks, Andrwsc 22:48, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Randy Orton
Hey, the image that's on Orton's article was edited by the dude that uploaded the image. How do I know? Cause I found the original image. I thought I should let you know. Batmanrules677 12:21, 5 April 2007 (UTC) 

Your welcome. Glad I could help. Batmanrules677 16:10, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Shawn Michaels
Hi, thanks for putting my edits in, after the bot blocked me. However, I'm extremely wary of not putting any links in the article, incase the bot, decides to block me (I'm on my final warning). What should I do? I was getting the links as I feel this could be a GA-candidate with a load of links in. Davnel03 17:05, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Doesn't matter, I've put the links on anyway - 100 references!! Davnel03 19:34, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Could I nominate it for GA-candidate - or would it just get rejected? Davnel03 19:43, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Another Doctor sock
You know those socks that keep adding nonsense about WWE and Bratz from Suspected sock puppets/216.83.121.194 and Suspected sock puppets/216.83.121.194 (2nd)? Well there's a new sock around - User:ECW11313 - See his contribs.-- bullet  proof  3:16 23:35, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the late response. I just got back from a week long Wiki-break. Yeah this guy is really annoying. There are ways to ban this troll indefinitely. We can file a report on Community sanction noticeboard and have him get a community ban or we could request that he have a Long term abuse page like the one our 'ol pal JB196 got at Long term abuse/JB196. Lord Deskana and Yamla can help us do this properly. This troll is getting on my nerves. What is up with that obsession he has with WWE and some brand of dolls anyways? I had to put all Bratz related articles on my Watchlist just so I could hunt his socks down. -- bullet  proof  3:16 04:26, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Another sock! User:Cholo1132 What is up with this guy?-- bullet  proof  3:16 01:37, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It would certainly help in this situation, yes.-- bullet  proof  3:16 16:05, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Trust me he's not Verdict. Adam was just some 14 year old kid who had a tough time with our policies. His edit history is much different than Verdict’s. I've been watching the situation over at Commons. -- bullet  proof  3:16 18:40, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Very interesting. Most of the images the user on commons uploaded are the same images Adam edited on here. I can tell you another thing; those WrestleMania X-Seven images are not free. I saw them on a set/stage design site. Hmm lying about copyright status... Think you got him-- bullet  proof  3:16 19:14, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * No problem really.-- bullet  proof  3:16 05:27, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Reason why Wrestling News Sites CANNOT be trusted on Wikipedia? Because Wrestling News Sites trust Wikipedia... See this "Update" on WWE Films ... Good God! Friggin' Doctor trolls...-- bullet  proof'''  3:16 04:51, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Your championship list
I think it looks really good. -- Scorpion0422 14:24, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Question
Do you think this image might work for the New Breed's infobox?  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 22:29, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I could ask him to change the license!!! That's what I've been doing with some of the images I've uploaded so they could work here!!! Just let me ask him. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 22:42, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I just sent him an e-mail!!! Also, I was just in MySpace and the big news is that Chris Benoit is dead!!! What's your deal on it?  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:05, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Really? Were you a big fan?  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:36, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

 * The Orton one?  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 22:50, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You're Welcome. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:12, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey I have a question!!! Concerning Randy Orton's article!!! On his Bio, do you think there's good detail to have have the quality scale at "Start"? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:06, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * The Marine info. is mentioned in the Before they were Superstars DVD!!! Do you think that might work? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 22:45, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You are Welcome!!! I'm just here trying to put the right information!!!! --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 22:43, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey, do I have your permission to remove the reliable / sources banner from Shane McMahon's article? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:22, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

speedy tags
Hi. Let me save you some time: just tell me where you're getting all these wrestling image speedy deletions from and I'll delete them. No sense in you going tagging all of them. Cheers, Pascal.Tesson 20:30, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Done. (what a bore that was!) Almost all of the remaining pics in the category should be moved to commons if you have the patience to do so (I sure don't!). Cheers, Pascal.Tesson 22:14, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

titles FT
In regards to the List of WWE championships page, perhaps we should move what you have done to the mainspace under the name "List of active World Wrestling Entertainment Championships", clean it up, and then see if we can get it peer reviewed. -- Scorpion0422 04:09, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Krabs again
Hi Oakster. I don't think we've met, but we appear to have a mutual 'friend'. See this edit and this request for unblock today. I thought you'd be interested to know - I think we could do with another checkuser :( -- zzuuzz (talk) 21:40, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Pedigree
Listen, I found an image of the Pedigree and I got permission to use it in Wikipedia. And I don't know if it would be appropriate that Triple H is about to Pedigree Chris Benoit!!! Since all of this controversy occurred!!!! Do you think it would be appropriate to use it? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 15:58, 06 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I know!!! I forwarded them my e-mail confirmation, and I still haven't heard from them!!! Maybe their on vacation!!! I know, your just doing your job, I understand. I'll see if I could reach them!!! But, I will get that confirmation. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:47, 09 July 2007 (UTC)

CM Punk
Thanks for doing the thing with the dates to comply with the FAC comment. I was going to do it last night, but I've been concentrating on the Chris Benoit murder-suicide article, which I'll be concentrating on also in the next few days. Thanks anyway! Davnel03 12:08, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

The doctor is back...
Apparently, the IP block was ineffective. The user is using a new sock. See User:Bratz12. If he was able to create a new account, I'm willing to bet he has a new IP and won't hesitate to make more socks. -- bullet  proof  3:16 21:29, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
 * No worries. There hasn't been much activity from his socks as of yet. I'll be on the look out and keep you informed. Good to see you back.-- bullet  proof  3:16 00:08, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
