Welcome back

Hellow, SWD316. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you—as my professional duties have increased, I have had to cut back on the time I spend on Wikipedia. I'm sorry too to hear that you were having an unpleasant time here. Wikipedia can be both strangely addicting and frustrating. And yes, the constant fight against vandalism can be wearying. Why people would want to mess up a free, volunteer-driven, advertisement-free encyclopedia, I'll never know. But you did the right thing: when you get stressed, the best thing to do is to take a step back and take a little Wikibreak, rather than trying to stick it through and getting burnt out. I'm on a partial Wikibreak myself, not due to frustration but rather due to lack of time, so I'm still popping my head in. If you want to discuss any of your specific frustrations, feel free to drop me a note. Good luck and happy editing! — Knowledge Seeker 04:04, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

great to see you back

nice to see you back on Wikipedia. Do you want to tell me why you were on the "wikibreak" in the first place? :-) splintax (talk) 04:39, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

I second that. Thanks for the heads-up on that idiot over at the AOL proxy. I left a charming and pithy comment of my own.  :) - Lucky 6.9 17:42, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

Re: Previous WWE Roster

Hi there,

Thanks for leaving comments on my Talk Page. Just wondering if it would be more helpful to the article to list the persons concerned multiple times where necessary, with the wikilink only existing on the first instance, so it is clear when someone has been released more than once.

This has a couple of benefits:

  • Prevents people editing as I have done
  • Allows more information to exist on the page - e.g.: Davey-Boy is better remembered by most long-term fans for his stints in 1985-1988 and 1990-1992 (approx, not checked dates) than for his 2000 stint; John Tenta is far better known for his early 1990's performances as Earthquake than for his 1998 appearances as Golga; the similar applies to The Ultimate Warrior and Hulk Hogan. It would be a shame to lose that information, as the average reader is more likely to check the year they are most familiar with.

A few other points as to wrestlers that weren't under contract, e.g.: Gobbledygooker, Blue Meanie, etc. Should they be included? If so, then potentially Pamela Anderson, Leslie Nielsen, Mohammed Ali, Cyndi Lauper and others are all eligible for their appearances.

Also, Tommy Dreamer and Ron Simmons are both still under contract the last I heard (Dreamer in OVW and Simmons in PR.)

Perhaps fleshing out the introduction would be useful at any rate, e.g.: definition of who is on the roster.

Happy to help in any way I can.

Cheers,

Essexmutant 22:07, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Pat Tanaka

Just a bit surprised you moved Tanaka to 1992. He actually made 5 appearances in late 1993, and an appearance on Raw in 1994. Essexmutant 21:36, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

More on Tanaka

Okay, forget 1994 for a moment then. How do you account for 5 Tanaka matches in 1993? Are we really saying that Tanaka was not part of the roster when he did 5 matches, yet Gobbledygooker is part of the roster because he came out of an egg at Thanksgiving '90? Sorry if the tone of this comes across as harsh - I just feel that there are double-standards here. Essexmutant 00:07, 27 September 2005 (UTC)


Can you change it to red link (No Page Link)? I would but I don't know how. --BionicWilliam 20:16, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Left?

Hi there, SWD316. I noticed on the members list of Wikiproject:Encyclopedic Merit that you said you left wikipedia. Have you (I know, redundant question)? Also, I've been checking out you edit count and contributions, and I also read that you failed adminship once. I cant believe it. Please, please let me know when you are re-nominated. I will most certainly vote "support". Cheers Banes 20:19, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Esperanza

I'm in the process of leaving a message exactly like that on the Esperanza talk page. I'll let you know as soon as I finish. -- Essjay · Talk 23:28, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

My comments have been posted. -- Essjay · Talk 23:47, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Advisory Committee election deadline set

Our new admin general, Essjay, has set the date for the advisory committee elections, that date being October 7th. By UTC it is October 5th right now. So see WP:ESP/E for voting in two days, and add yourself to the list if you're interested in running. On a personal note, I'm considering running, as I only resigned as admin general because of time. I'm sure I could help out on the advisory committee... Anywho, watchlist that page, and be sure to read the voting method too. Regards, Redwolf24 (talk) 01:11, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

My Clean-up Desk

HI there Stewartadcock, Im SWD316. I saw on my Cleanup Desk that you left this template. {{Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce/Are you active?}}. Why? I didn't leave the clean-up force or Wikipedia so why did you leave this message. I'm just awaiting tasks to do! Please remove it. SWD316 talk to me 23:01, 4 October 2005

Hi SWD316. Everybody on the member list got that task. The idea is so we can assign new tasks just to the 20 or so active members rather than the 70 or so possibly-active, but probably inactive members. When you sign that task, you'll find that you start getting tasks assigned! Cheers. Stewart Adcock 09:50, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Cleanup taskforce.

Hi. Do you have any interests apart from professional wrestling? These's a limited number of current tasks on that topic! Stewart Adcock 21:28, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks. It's a good thing I'm not afraid of clowns. :o Acetic'Acid 06:03, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Esperanza Election

SWD316, thank you very much for your vote of confidence in my bid to become one of the first members of the Esperanza Advisory Committee. Even though the elections not finished, and the final results are still out, I would like you to know that I appreciate your support, and look forward to working together in making Wikipedia a better place to work and edit. Cheers, Bratschetalk | Esperanza 18:19, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Advisory Committee

Evening, David. I just wanted to pop in to thank you for supporting me in the Advisory Committee Election. I don't know exactly what I'm supposed to do yet, but I trust that Essjay will be a good leader and let us know. And if he doesn't, I'll impeach him! ;o See ya around! Acetic'Acid 20:59, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for your vote of confidence in the Esperanza elections. I look forward to helping Esperanza and Wikipedia progress. Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk | WS 21:52, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your support

Hello there SWD316, I just wanted to thank you for your vote of confidence. Even though I didn't make, it's not the end of the world and I really appreciate the trust you have given to me. Thanks again and I wish you all the best... Gryffindor 21:57, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks

Hey, SWD, thanks for your vote in Esperanza's Advisory Committee Elections. While I didn't get enough votes to be part of it, I know that the four who are can do the job much better than I could have. But I don't take your show of trust in me lightly, I really appreciate it, and tell me whenever you think I can be useful for something. Titoxd(?!?) 22:59, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Thankyou!

My warmest thanks for your support in the Esperanza elections. Although I was not elected, you're confidence and support really does mean a lot to me. JDH Owens talk | Esperanza 10:12, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Esperanza Spam

Hello Esperanzians! A few announcements.

The Advisory Committee election results are in. In tranch A are Acetic Acid and Flcelloguy. In tranch B are Ryan Norton and Bratsche.

My other annoouncement is that our founder, JCarriker, has founded Esperanza's sister project, Wikipediology. I have written two essays here (my name is Matt Binder). My essays are under Teenage Wikipedians and Anon Editors.

On behalf of myself and Jay Carriker and the other wikipediologists, I would appreciate it if you were to join.

Three Comments about WWE Current Superstar Page

Hello Again SWD316 Matt Striker has been on Heat recently so I guess he is in a gray area in between OVW & WWE RAW

Also instead of putting Jim Ross under Inactive, should not he be under the administration with the title: Executive Vice President, Business Strategies with a mention to his firing in kayfade?

Furthermore, Would it be more logic to list the Commentators, Backstage Announcers, Ring Announcers, & GM under there specific Brand or would it be to messy --BionicWilliam 03:26, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Repost

Repost my question from WWE Roster Talk Page About Comentator's/GM's we should at least put what brand there affilated with. My reasoning is say a noobie to wrestling came on here and wanted to know who the GM's it would look like that both Bischoff & Long were Co GMs? --BionicWilliam 21:07, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Nevermind --BionicWilliam 21:11, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

About Chris Jericho

Shouldn't he be under inactive one the WWE Roster like JR is since he might return soon? --BionicWilliam 03:35, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

How do you start to flesh out a Profile Page?

Like a profile boxs since I just want to add a basic bio to mine? I find posting it here on Wiki a big problem. Someone made a mediocre RAW Face/Heel Guide Page Link to the WWE Roster Page also someone spoiled SD! for me by adding Matt Cap. from Tough Enough & The Miz to the Debut Soon Coloum(Is there anything agianist posting spoilers on the Roster Page?) Maybe we should add a don't add change's to RAW & SD! Rosters until shown on US TV like where doing with the titles (Sorry if I'm rambling)

--BionicWilliam 05:19, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

No Apologies Necessary

Howdy, SWD316! I just recently made admin (uh, technically Monday, officially yesterday)...so, no need to apologize. I didn't have the scarlet letter before and only added the link last night. Thanks for the note, though ;-). -->: Roby Wayne Talk • Hist • E@ 20:53, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

About Infoboxes

Like the one on you user page that displays your favorites. About the spoilers I know about Smackdown! being tape its just I don't like to be spoiled but I realize now that people will post updates to the roster before the wrestlers on TV. --BionicWilliam 22:10, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

Arranging the awards

hi and thanks for arranging the awards on my page. It used to look fine sometimes and sometimes cluttered. Anyway, thanks. --Bhadani 07:29, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

My my, yesterday was your birthday. I certainly missed the party. I have brought some laddus from India for you. Please enjoy. --Bhadani 07:41, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

José Alvarado

Why did you move José Alvarado back to José Alvarado-Nieves? unless disambiguation is needed, you do not refer to someone with maternal surname.--Darren Jowalsen 03:49, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

Jose Alvarado (continued)

It is Spanish custom for all people to have both their father and their mother's last name. However, they are never hyphenated and people are generally only referred to with their paternal surname. Having it at "José Alvardo-Nieves" is incorrect and using his maternal name is unnecessary. So, it will be either "José Alvardo" or "José Alvardo Nieves" but definitely not "José Alvardo-Nieves."--Darren Jowalsen 21:59, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

rspw

what is your latest message in response to? WillC 03:19, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

do you have rec.sport.pro-wrestling and other newsgroups somewhere in the wrestling project? WillC 19:53, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

The article William Moody (wrestler) is a redirect to Percy Pringle. Why do you insist on making Percy Pringle a redirect to a redirect? Owen× 01:52, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks. Owen× 01:55, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
That's right, I know nothing about wrestling. What I do know, however, is that it is customary to create the target article before turning the others into redirects. You have been here long enough to know that too, SWD316. Not using Edit summaries also helps create confusion. Anyway, you fixed it all now. Cheers! Owen× 02:08, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Stone Cold/JR

"Steve Austin was told he was going to do the job for Jonathan Coachman on Saturday and refused. Apparently he also found out that Jim Ross also wasn't returning as Raw announcer despite how the angle was playing on television." -- PWI500 18:03, November 1, 2005 (UTC)

Torrie Wilson & Joey Styles

Are you sure that Torrie Wilson is released? Seems as if WWE shot down those internet rumors, recently WWE has been upfront about firings (i.e. Christian), so why would they say Torrie is NOT released? Maybe she IS just taking some time off, if WWE says so, I would believe them.

Joey Styles not, in his new interview at WWE.Com, he notes that he is under WWE contract as a commentator, just letting you know for confirmation, you can read yourself.[1]

-- PWI500 20:41, November 1, 2005

Why?

May I ask why you are leaving Wikipedia? Esperanza has no hope of resolving it if we don't know why. You're a valued contributor and person; there's not need to leave... --Celestianpower háblame 21:54, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

C'mon Dave

Stick in there. Don't let a couple of editors get you down. Everyone has a bad day once in awhile, and I'm sure you'll be fine in a few days. Take a pause and a deep breath. Relax and find your way back this way again in a little bit and I'm sure you'll feel better about WP. See you around my friend. --LV (Dark Mark) 22:28, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Umm... have you forgotten what this project is? This is one of the greatest undertakings that the Internet, and maybe human knowledge, has ever known. It would be a shame to lose another good editor. Perhaps you might try editing in areas that you have'nt been before and meet some new people. There are lots of us good ones out here. --LV (Dark Mark) 22:32, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Seconded, try to take a break, as we all know how irritating Wikipedia can get from time to time, and come back soon. Please, wikipedia cant survive if all of the good editors such as yourself leave, come back please! Banes 11:38, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the note, I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Are you going to take a break and come back in a few days time? Banes 21:22, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
I'm really sorry to hear that. Anyway cheers and good luck with all of your endevours in the real world, hope to see you back here some day. All the best Banes 21:28, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

Glad to hear it!

Its great to have you back, what wonders a break can do! And yes, I read your last edit summary, it is fitting of what can happen here sometimes. I myself am overdue for a break soon. I know this sounds plain stupid, but the stress alerts list made me almost feel like leaving wikipedia myself. Anyway, its good to see you! Cheers Banes 16:48, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

WB

Awesome. I know I'm just a passer-by but I wanted to welcome you back! Oh and I really like the layout of your main user page! --Stux 19:06, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

Re:Wikibreak

Actually I am going to be taking a wikibreak, this is my last day before I'm going into rehab. So I just wanted to make a few more edits before I leave. Private Butcher 19:27, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

I'll probably be gone for unfortunately around a month. I'm not going to be allowed to use computers or really make much contact with anyone outside of rehab. So it'll probably be a month until I'm back. Private Butcher 19:31, 5 November 2005 (UTC)


Your sig

You might need to fix your sig. On your post to Purplefeltangel's talk page, your greening of the Esperanza e made my text all green! I have no problems with the sig, just you might want to put a </font> tag (or two) in, just to be sure. Anyways, I thought it was nice to see your comments, and I'll see you around! -[[User:Mysekurity|Mysekurity]] [[additions | e-mail]] 21:17, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

Dear SWD316

Alphabetizing Issues on WWE Roster Page I suggest we all the workers in order by the first letter of there stage name as on WWE’s Superstar page but not by articals like for example: Undertaker besides The Undetaker, Rock besides the Rock That would get rid of part-time wrestlers and managers/divas but it would also stop reverting wars that has been going on. BionicWilliam 20:00, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

About OVW & DSW Roster’s in general I would suggest we should split their rosters up into development and the exclusive rosters. Seeing as it is hard to believe every one of those stars under those lists are under WWE Superstar or WWE Developmental Superstar Contracts. BionicWilliam 20:00, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

PS. Doug Basham wrestled on the OVW 10/29/2005 show so maybe he's their unitil WWE has something for him? BionicWilliam 22:26, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

Profile

Dear SWD316 I redid my profile so was not so much like yours, the reason I used bits and pieces of yours since it looks to be the most complete.

About Rosters The reason I suggested the changes is so it will have a straightforward ordering. Also about OVW & DSW, the page is about the Current WWE Roster and most of the mangers (Synn & Bolin to be specific) & new wrestlers are under OVW Contracts not WWE Development Contracts but they might be in the future. BionicWilliam 21:57, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Anon problems

Thanks. I have this feeling he's a person who's been banned from WP, and is sockpuppeting. I see a pattern of insulting me when he finds out I'm wrong. --LBMixPro(Speak on it!) 22:29, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
Go ahead. I borrowed it from someone else as well.

Talk page header

Go ahead. I borrowed it from someone else as well. I also did some fixes to your header, since it was looking really funny in 800x600 resolution, and was centering everything. Hope they work. Oh, yeah. Thanks for you contribs to the Pro Wrestling WikiProject. --LBMixPro(Speak on it!) 22:46, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
I don't know what's still making this centered though. I'll keep checking up on it. --LBMixPro(Speak on it!) 22:49, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Just letting you know, the person who attacked me wrote back at you saying:

You two should both stick to something you know, say like Aguilera and World wrestling federation and leave the serious topics to serious people. IheartWWFwwf(wrestling for gays) 21:37, 9 November 2005 (UTC) --LBMixPro(Speak on it!) 01:53, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
Yeah, I know. I realized it when my edit to User Talk:TheoClarke was met with an Edit Conflict. I'm sorry that I had to pull you into this. I just wanted to let WP:EA know how I was feeling. I didn't even know you were part of Esperanza, until you contacted me about him. This whole thing with the INC article; the Iglesia ni Cristo is a controvercial church who's beliefs are often attacked by detrators who think of it as a cult, no matter how far off to the truth it is. I have this feeling he wants only devoted members of the church to edit the article. A few months ago, I was involved with an Arbitration Committee case with a similar wikipedian called User:Emico. The result was him being banned from the article for a year. This guy seems to have the same editing pattern as Emico, especially after his ban, which makes me want to believe he is the same person. It's a long story though. I'll most likely add this whole thing to his RFAr page. If it's the same person, he's violated his Personal Attack Parole. --LBMixPro(Speak on it!) 04:19, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
I doubt it. User:IHeartWWF's only posts were to my talk page, and it is the same thing as what these anons were saying. Regardless; it's not cool, to say the least. Just because I show interest in entertainers than religion doesn't make me any less serious than someone who doesn't even take Wikpedia Policies seriously. --LBMixPro(Speak on it!) 04:59, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
