It states he's most commonly known as Nigel McGuinness - which obviously isn't the case anymore. Desmond Wolfe is shown to an international audience of millions every week, I think it's safe to say he's more known for his time in TNA now.

: I agree. Although the picture is now up to date, WP:COMMONNAME surely qualifies a move to "Desmond Wolfe" with a redirect at "Nigel McGuinness". He is far better known under his TNA name rather his indy one. ] (]) 19:16, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

I just noticed that the article says that he was born in Kent. All well and good except they've then gone on to say England, UK. To me at first glance that would suggest he's from a town called Kent which would confuse those who don't know that Kent is a county. I have found with him that says he's from ] however it's pretty much a cut-and-paste onto a forum which we can't use it as a source however it does mention that it's from ] magazine and what looks like the May or June 2007 issue which we could use to source it. I don't have a copy and therefore I don't know the ISSN number, does someone know it then I might be able to knock up a reasonable source template to use to allow us to show where he is from (although if someone has a copy with the exact details, that's even better). ] (]) 09:02, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
