There isn't a way to protect the article so that only constructive edits can occur. The article is already on semi-protect. I'd imagine that if the edit warring continues, I'll have to fully protect the article so that only admins can make changes. That is kind of a last resort option, and I don't think I can because I've been outspoken in the debate. Admins are not supposed to protect articles during content debates that they are a part of. As far as developmental wrestlers are concerned, I'm not sure. Nikki 311 22:15, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

That should do it. If you need anything else, don't hesitate to ask. The Chronic 00:50, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Alright. I'll do that in a little bit. The Chronic 00:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Well, for the e-mail thing: you're gonna need to go to "my preferences" at the top of the page and fill out your e-mail there. The Chronic 00:57, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Did you check the "Enable e-mail from other users" box at the bottom of that same page? cause I can't seem to get to the e-mail form to e-mail you (not that I actually going to or need to, but just to see whether the link works). The Chronic 04:24, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

No, it's not that. On the left side, in the "toolbox" thing, there's a link that says "e-amil this user". But when I'm on your page and click it, it says there's an error because "This user has not specified a valid e-mail address, or has chosen not to receive e-mail from other users". WP:E-MAIL. The Chronic 15:31, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

No, not yet. When I click on this link, the error message comes up. It shouldn't happen. The Chronic 00:18, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

NOW it works! Now I'll get to work of the browse bar. The Chronic 00:27, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Oh hey, it is okay to cut down the bulky border a bit (make it thinner)?. The Chronic 00:28, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

One more thing: do you want the advertisement banner on your page, like mine? The Chronic 01:02, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

There. I'm done. If you want any of it changed (particularly the ad; I put that there to see if you liked it), tell me. The Chronic 01:31, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

You mean the border of the box? The Chronic 01:57, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Hey! Do sign my guestbook. The Chronic 01:59, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Done. The Chronic 02:01, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

One more thing: this. The Chronic 02:16, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

You don't have to do anything. You just sign up. It's just a "competition" based on your edits. I figured you wanted to sign in as El Salvador, since that's where you're from and all. The Chronic 02:21, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Sweet! :) The Chronic 02:30, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

You don't need this anymore, do you? The Chronic 02:35, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

I seriously don't know. I'm guessing it starts whenever you receive this on your talk page. The Chronic 02:37, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

That's the plan. Those conversations weren't still active, were they? The Chronic 02:44, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

I designed my signature all by myself. However, Here may be a good sig that you need: TrUcO9311 ^{talk sign}. The Chronic 02:48, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

That I don't know how to do. Sorry.

The Chronic 02:56, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Oh. I guess you'll have to bring that up with someone more experienced than me (or the help desk). The Chronic 03:08, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

That do good for you? The Chronic 02:18, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Hey, is it okay to just simply redirect your old usernames to your current account? The Chronic 02:20, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, that's good. I redirected your user talk pages too (just for convenience). The Chronic 03:09, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

1. Make a signature at User:Truco9311/Signature
2. Go to your preferences ( here)
3. In the User profile, there is a section named Signature that has a text box next to it.
4. Check the box that says Raw signature
5. In the text box, write: {{SUBST:User:Truco9311/Signature}} ~~~~~
6. Save!

That should work! Dav nel 03 16:38, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

I've created your sig at User:Truco9311/Signature. Try the remainder of the steps, and see what happens. :) Dav nel 03 16:46, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Are you still interested in knowing where I created mine? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:01, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Mine was made for me at User talk:Lights/Signature shop. Peace, The Hybrid T/ C 21:44, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Alright. I copied the code from User:Bignole's signature, see the original signature here and ended up expanding my signature. Are you trying to see who's signature is the best? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:48, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Oh. Well in that case, can you sign my autograph book? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:53, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for signing, Truco. I really appreciate it. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:05, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

You're on the list. Help finish Unforgiven and we'll call it even. :) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:13, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

User:D.M.N./Signature Barnstar Cheers, Dav nel 03 ^{Sign It, Junior!} 22:38, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

I have the answer to your problem: I figured it out a few months ago, because I had the same problem, and the answer is to put {{subst:User:Truco9311/sig}} (Or where ever your signature is located) in that preferences box for your signature with Raw Signature checked. YДмΔќʃʀï ^→Г _C← 12-23-2007 • 22:59:59

Just a couple things. I think there should be a greater emphasis on the brand receiving the wrestlers. I say the Brand (to) column should be second. Also, with the table as it is now (great job BTW), I'm just not liking the colors in the brand boxes. I think those should go. Mshake3 ( talk) 06:37, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

The current version looks good. Hopefully it can be improved even more once it becomes an article (since others will see it too on the mainspace and can edit it). TJ Spyke 05:50, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

I would wait until tomorrow afternoon just to give people some time to look it over first. It's your decision though. TJ Spyke 05:58, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Since it was only 2 wrestlers, I would say the ECW draft does not warrant its own article. TJ Spyke 06:05, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

I am not sure to be honest. TJ Spyke 06:13, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. That means a lot. And I'd say the Draft Article should have a Start rating, but I'd run it by the rest of the project on WPT:PW. Gavyn Sykes ( talk) 00:36, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

I would, but I can't be sure how much help I'd be. I wasn't watching wrestling when the other drafts happen, but I can always check for linking and other minor things like I do for the CotW. Gavyn Sykes ( talk) 01:01, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

That sounds fine. I plan to look over the FCotW tomorrow, after that, I intend to add a bit to WM23 and then I can look over the 2005 draft, assuming I remember. Gavyn Sykes ( talk) 01:18, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Sure. :) Gavyn Sykes ( talk) 01:27, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry. I'm not going to be able to help with the Draft articles today. I had a long day (long story, don't want to get into it), so I'll look into it tomorrow. Sorry. Gavyn Sykes ( talk) 23:01, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Er, I'm sorry again. I haven't had too many free moments to edit wiki besides reverting some vandalism, and I need to focus on 'Mania 23 or it will never get done. I'm not really going to have time to help with the draft. I'm sorry. Gavyn Sykes ( talk) 16:16, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Happy New Year to you as well. But why was time in quotes? That made me feel a bit uneasy that you were holding a grudge or something. Gavyn Sykes ( talk) 16:22, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Ok, I'm (finally) ready to get started on the Aftermath section, but first I have a question. How would I organize it (ie. fued by feud, week by week)? Cheers, L A X 07:21, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Just a happy Birthday message to you, Truco, from the Wikipedia Birthday Committee! Have a great day!

No problem. I'm just here doing my job. Hey, about the 2007 WWE Draft, there seems to be a long discussion about it, can I still support it? Or.... --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 16:43, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Will do. Do I still need a lot of more refs. for the Vengeance article? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 16:47, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I added the refs. you recommended. Let's see what happens next. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 17:07, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I found 2 refs. that will sure work. Sure, even though I didn't watch it, I'll help out. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 17:57, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

You got it. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 18:01, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Quick question. I recently archived my talk page successfully. But it looks different than other archives and lacks the cool looking cabinet pic. Could you take a look at my page (hit edit if need-be) and tell me what I missed? Thanks. Gavyn Sykes ( talk) 23:53, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Hello! I would like to add two userboxes you have on your userpage to my userpage, but I am having a hard time seeing what their template is. The ones I like are the "This user prefers WWE" and "This user does not feed the trolls." If you would be so kind as to add those to my user page in an obviously appropriate area, I would greatly appreciate it! Happy holidays! Sincerely, -- Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles ^Tally-ho! 21:00, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I have a question for you about this page. Since i started the debate anyways, personally which do you like better, a table, a list, or a paragraph for the roster section? Also, I want to assure you, that I will NOT start an edit war. Your opinion and response will be greatly appreciated, since you seem to be trying make a compromise. Thanks, and respond whenever you can. Tech43 ( talk) 21:03, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm not good at actually making lists and tables, i see you are a friend of thinkblue. Do you think she could help? I also want to thank you for actually making us all look intelligant on that page. Because when Rob is involved, things are anything but. Tech43 ( talk) 21:13, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I like it. The table actually is better than a list for this game. Like i said, ANYTHING but a paragraph. Tech43 ( talk) 21:26, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I liked the last table the best. That was the one with only check/x's with no words. I liked that one, because it's simple and to the point. I definitlely feel you should add it to the page. Tech43 ( talk) 21:40, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I would like you to continue, because if I did it, it would be a total train wreck. Tech43 ( talk) 21:46, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Tech43 relayed the message to everyone that he knows or cares on that section. Tech43 ( talk) 21:52, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Maybe a list would do better. You never know. Tech43 ( talk) 05:40, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

You should make a list. Tech43 ( talk) 23:21, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Good. I'm happy now. Tech43 ( talk) 05:24, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

I think the article is looking great. I've been busy lately, so I just managed to get the copyediting finished today. The only concerns that I have left are that a couple of wrestling moves aren't wikilinked the first time they are used (spear and gore), which I'm adding right now. You've done a really good job on this article, and I don't forsee any major problems coming up during the GA review. GaryColemanFan ( talk) 21:29, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure. Try asking an admin. I've gone through the status to get an article to FA status ( Wii), but not GA. TJ Spyke 01:01, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
