Last American PPV

Since a editor keeps saying that it should be noted that Backlash 2002 was the last American PPV under the WWF name (the last PPV under the WWF name was the UK-only PPV Insurrextion 2002, which took place 1 day before they became WWE). I don't find it all that notable, and several other editors have also removed it. Since this user continues to add it back though, I thought I would bring it here to see what the consensus is. TJ Spyke 07:28, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Personally, I think it is notable, but I sadly can't think of a way to explain why I feel as such. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 14:48, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I don't understand why it would be notable. --Naha|^(talk) 15:52, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand either. Dav nel 03 21:17, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Its notable in the way that its notable when the lat wcw ppv was because its the last one. While the insurecction ppv is technical the last one insurrection is a uk only event.LifeStroke420 (talk) 03:34, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Backlash 2008 Article

Is Backlash going to get its own article? If not, why? All other PPV's are getting their own articles. ^{-GuffasBorgz7-} 11:45, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

create one, link there. simple, isn't it? Diivoo (talk) 16:01, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I already tried making Backlash (2008) but someone reverted it for some reason. ^{-GuffasBorgz7-} 20:07, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Its still to early to make one because there is not enough info for it yet . This has been discussed at the wp:pw talk page. MA TT 21:03, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I agree Diivoo. Because as the weeks go by, more and more information will be able to be put into it. ^{-GuffasBorgz7-} 20:04, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As the weeks go by there will be enough info to make its own article MA TT 21:32, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jargon

I understand this article is under expansion and I'm glad to see that. But to inform people that this article still contains jargon I've placed a tag in the article. Match types are not explained among other things. That needs to be fixed.--WillC 23:38, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why are you obsessed with dumbing down every PPV article? Most of the articles you put the jargon tag on do NOT need it as not every little thing that exists has to be explained (that's why linking exists). Articles are allowed to have some jargon. TJ Spyke 23:50, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, ones that people can understand quickly are allowed. But like a Hell in a Cell match for intense is not. I'm trying to make sure everyone can understand it. I've placed the jargon tags on articles that need it. And yes, every 2009 PPV event has needed it because they aren't following the correct formats.--WillC 00:00, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Backlash 1999

Backlash 1999 was NOT an In Your House PPV. Yes, the poster that was released months earlier does say In Your House on it, but at some point between the poster's release and the actual PPV itself, WWE dropped the In Your House name. If you watch the PPV, and even the episode of Sunday Night Heat that preceded the PPV, not once throughout the whole event is the name "In Your House" mentioned. Not by the commentators or wrestlers and not even an on-screen graphic. Also the cover of the original home video release does not say In Your House either. Every other In Your House from May 1995 until St. Valentine's Day Massacre has the name shown on screen, mentioned on screen and it's included on the cover of the home video release.
