Sin Cara

After reading this article it's pretty much confirmed now that Místico has quietly left WWE. You were correct, WWE just hasn't gotten around to changing the Sin Cara Twitter account yet. Thanks for our discussion, I wish you well. Daren420c (talk) 18:26, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

All the best in your future endeavours, too. You didn't have to delete the discussion, but it's fine if you want.

Bigfoot article

Figured this might help us with our disagreement on final outcome of the Silva ruling: Since UFN Bigfoot v Hunt was regulated by UFC, they're ruling effects his official record. He now contains one NC.

http://www.ufc.com/fighter/Antonio-Silva

Thoughts? Dstrange (talk) 00:45, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

I think that source contradicts itself. Despite the (1) in the record, it still says Majority Draw in the record table (as opposed to the NC in Jessica Eye and Pat Healy's profiles). I guess you might have a case for editing his record, but not the results. Consider, how does a contest end in a draw for one fighter only?

Also, it's common practice here to source fight records to Sherdog, which calls it a draw. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:58, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

Progress simply isn't made - could you help to post in the responses to above points subsection to move it forward? Thank you very much. starship.paint (talk | ctrb) 08:44, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Roster

Well, about the roster, I think that this kind of workers are hard to write. First, are random jobs. Timekeeper, catering... I doesn't looks like an important job (also, looks like a job whose workers change every year.). However, most important, sources. The source is the magazine from august 2013. 6 months later, do you know if they still in WWE? 2 years later, will they stay in the roster because once, they appeared in a 2013 magazine? --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 16:28, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, you've got a bit of a point there. We can't be sure of the turnover rate. Still, that's often the case on Misplaced Pages. We use the most recent sources, till something comes along to the contrary. Part of the whole "verifiability, not truth" thing.

And I think you're underestimating the importance of these jobs. The seamstress makes all the costumes you see, the lighting technician makes the entrances look cool, catering keeps the wrestlers alive. Compare that to a creative consultant, part-time "producer" or member of the board. When have you ever noticed something they did? Or, less importantly, all the "unassigned personnel". Sitting at home is notable? InedibleHulk (talk) 16:40, February 11, 2014 (UTC)

Jan the makeup lady was around 25 years in 2012. She might still be. That's not proof that everyone stays around that long, but something to consider. InedibleHulk (talk) 16:45, February 11, 2014 (UTC)

That's why in Spanish Wiki, the Admins decided to delete all rosters and alumnis. Backstage roles are bitches. We can source if, for example, Blackjack lanza was hired in 2007, but we can't source if Lanza stills in WWE right now. Sometimes, we hear about them (Jamie Noble in WWE tour...) but I don't think we'll hear about the catering girl or the timekeeper. Also, I heared one WWE backstage guy died due cancer. He spent years in WWE, why did nobody include him in the roster? Also, one question. NXT isn't a independent promotion, so.... Does Keirn still the president (legit or kayfabe)? --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 16:53, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Would you feel better with an "As of August 2013" note? I think that's as far as I'm willing to bend, given the verifiability practices here. We should, of course, periodically Google to see if anything has changed, but it's unfair to hold some positions to different, unreachable standards.

Keirn shouldn't be President of something that doesn't exist. Good catch. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:04, February 11, 2014 (UTC)

I think my feelings doesn't care in Misplaced Pages XD As you prefer. Lucky, I doesn't worry about the rosters a long time ago. However, I'll change Keirn (poor Keirn, we have denoted him from President to Trainer) Also, what do you think about ask an Admin. to help us with the eternal discussion about Jargon? --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 20:30, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Our feelings sort of matter. I feel Keirn should be a principal, and have a superintendent who constantly yells "SKIN-NER!" at him. It'd get over. As for the "jargon", whatever you feel is best. Maybe ask "JIM-BO!" InedibleHulk (talk) 20:54, February 11, 2014 (UTC)

We are talking about Simpsons. Did you mean Jimbo or JIMBO? Can we talk with JIMBO, really? How? Maybe, we should talk with Starship Pain and try to make a new consensus, right? I mean, think, if we are gonna talk about wrestling, we should use essential wrestling terms (face, heel, jobber) not every single word in the wrestling dictionary, but I think is silly to substitute face and heel for fan favorite and villain (yes, my University teachers were very hard with the words we use in works. German education) --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:47, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

Anyone can talk to Jimmy Wales like any other editor, through his talk page (Jimbo Jones is much more elusive). But I don't know if he'd be interested in this. It's more of a local problem, anyway. Consensus seems to be roughly the same every time we bring it up (about 70-30% for proper terms), so I doubt a "new" one would be much different. I haven't seen "villain" or "hero/favourite" in a wrestler article for a long time, just that event disclaimer. So it seems things are mostly working as the general Wikiproject decided, even if there are a few dissenters. InedibleHulk (talk) 15:54, February 13, 2014 (UTC)

Of course. If WP says we'll not use term, I'll shut up. However, talk about a consensus 7 years ago and (I think) the only user who stills in Misplaced Pages is WillC... maybe is time to search a new consensus with the current users. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 17:14, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

We have. A few times in the last few months, even. There's no policy against using them, only a guideline which suggests considering its advice. We've all considered that, and most of us agree with you. That's consensus. We don't need it in Support/Oppose vote format to see where the current members stand, but if that's what you're suggesting, it probably couldn't hurt. No threaded arguments, just everybody pick their side and then we can all shut up about it for at least another year. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:39, February 13, 2014 (UTC)

Let me give you both some advice. A consensus isn't established just because someone likes something, certainly not when these policies are involved. Considering I was mentioned, let me give you a history less. 6 years ago the consensus was established. For 6 years this discussion has continued. No one has ever wanted to follow it, but we do. Why? Because we need to. Our job is to write professional articles that are well written and understood by all audiences. The main complaint by outside readers were that heel, face, jobber, etc made no sense to the reader and the articles which they linked too were even harder to understand. This discussion has never stopped and it won't stop. Because we could establish a new or keep the old consensus and in a week or two the discussion will start all over again. Why? Because that is how it is. The same is kept. A new editor comes around who doesn't like it, new discussion held, and all the ones that agree (such as yourselves) will join him and the discussion continues. CRRaysHead90 has been arguing his point since 2008 even when he was banned from the English wiki and was on simple. You must understand, jargon, in-u, and fiction are not advice. They don't say advice. They are the Manual of Style and that is how we are supposed to write based on several discussions through wikipedia's history. If you don't like that agreement, then I suggest moving onto the pro wrestling wiki. Otherwise this is destined to continue as to get articles to Featured Article level, we have to go by these policies and any editor who wants to get an article to that level will as well. I appreciate you talking about me though, I feel special.--WillC 10:49, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

You admit nobody wants to follow it, and it's been argued for years by many various editors. That doesn't sound like consensus, that sounds like a strong-willed Will. We apparently stopped making Featured Articles about six years ago, oddly enough, and it seems that is what's destined to continue. And again, the Manual of Style is not a policy. It's a guideline. "Editors should attempt to follow guidelines, though they are best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply". You've been here longer than we have, so I suppose you're "special", but you're a slow learner. InedibleHulk (talk) 15:47, February 14, 2014 (UTC)

Well, as I told you, WP:Jargon says minimize jargon, but it feels like we avoid completely every single term because "people will not understand". Minimize isn't avoid every single word. Again, other articles use a little Jargon. Videogames talks about First Person Shooter or RPG... they use them and maybe, people don't understand the terms. WillC, I consider you a great user, but I think this is wrong. Maybe is time for a new consensus, because other users agree to change it. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:04, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

We do use Jargon: Lethal Lockdown, Three way match, submission, pinfall, elimination, angle (word used in mainstream public as well), card, dark match, enforcer, interference, lumberjack, near-fall, fall, number-one contender, rematch clause, segment, signature move, tap out, vacant, etc. These are just a few terms I can think up off the top of my head and found in Glossary of professional wrestling terms. We minimize jargon yet use plenty of the terms. We use jargon still.--WillC 15:42, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

So what's the harm in using more common jargon? InedibleHulk (talk) 15:49, February 14, 2014 (UTC)

Because the ones above are too difficult to explain, unlike heel and face.--WillC 21:39, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

"Too difficult" is a subjective opinion, and I don't share it. Some of those (segment, vacant, elimination) are standard English. And like has been said, faces like Cena and Hogan aren't "fan favourites" or "heroes". They're often poor sports and get booed. So that explanation is nowhere near the one we already have. Same with "villain". Heels often have good reason for doing what they do. InedibleHulk (talk) 23:33, February 14, 2014 (UTC)

Why stop at one?

When I read this edit, I thought that your comment about "There was no apparent link to the Winter Olympics ..." was a sort of satirical take off of the sort of thing that journalists do, but no, it really is true.

Justin Bieber RfC: second survey

Hi Hulk, thank you for your contribution to the RfC on Justin Bieber's behaviour and legal issues. Some users have posted that the RfC is currently a mess, and that we need to be very explicit in what we agree to include and what we don't. As such, I have created a second survey, which cuts the content into points. Could you take the time to post your opinion on each point, whether you think it should be included or not, or summarized, or changed. It will be a bit tedious but we need your detailed input to move forward. Thanks again. starship.paint (talk | ctrb) 05:21, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

February 2014

Your recent editing history at Penn & Teller: Bullshit! shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. --Guy Macon (talk) 08:28, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Cause of Death

While we appreciate the enthusiasm, please don't undo established causes of death on the Deaths in 2014 page. Suicide is a cause of death and is stated as such in Wiki (see link). Cardiac arrest may be an event as you stated, but it is still listed on inquest and coroner findings in the US and around the world. Usually it is not specific to the type of problem such as cardiomyopathy, arrythmia, etc because those are hard to pinpoint and many don't bother for an inquest b/c it doesn't need to be that specific. There can be 50 different causes of cardiac arrest, but it will be listed as Cardiac arrest on the death certificate as the cessation of blood flow is what leads to brain death. As an example, when my grandfather passed away years ago, his death was stated as Cardiac Arrest on the death certificate. It is also listed that Cardiac Arrest is put on death certificates at the very bottom of that linked page. And that is all we need. If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a line. I am usually one of the CoD hounds so I check in a few times a day. We have a number of people who don't like putting CoDs down, but there is a group of us that try to be as detailed as possible. Ciao. Sunnydoo (talk) 08:03, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

I also started a section on the Deaths Talk page about the topic. If you are more comfortable talking there, feel free to reply. It is a little bit more of a technical argument and one that we had on the Deaths page several years ago. I am sure WWGB has it linked if we need to re-examine the issue. Thanks again. Sunnydoo (talk) 10:39, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

A beer for you!

I'm not trying to start an edit war, all I'm trying to do is prevent one. Hogan goes in "other talent". he gets put in a match...then what? We have much more flexibility by having him on the roster...this way we're covered. He may or may not wrestle, but all I'm looking to do is have all bases covered, rather than locking myself in a narrow path, that's all. I'm offering this beer as a sign of good faith, and to show I have no desire to fight, just merely show why it's safer to leave him on the roster. Vjmlhds 17:35, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the beer. I have as much desire to fight as Hulk Hogan does, according to the BBC quote I shared. If he's booked for a match, it's a two-second job, and I definitely won't argue. Just a matter of something indicating he'll wrestle. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:38, February 25, 2014 (UTC)

At the end of the day there's nothing definitive either way of if he'll wrestle or not (and I just don't mean at Mania, I mean down the road as well), all I'm saying is since it's Hogan, there's always the chance. (Hogan in a match will sell tickets, Maddox/Colter won't) so just for the sake of being safe rather than sorry, having him on the roster is the more prudent way to go. Vjmlhds (talk) 17:45, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

There's a chance anything could happen. The future is notoriously uncertain. It's why Misplaced Pages deals in present and past. Much more verifiable. Some IP added a section for Scotty 2 Hotty's WrestleMania XXX title match today. It's possible, but we'd be sorrier than safe leaving that. InedibleHulk (talk) 19:38, February 25, 2014 (UTC)

I've been editing here for 7 years. Just because this is the first time you're seeing me means nothing. I'm a former featured list director with years of experience and very rarely have problems with anyone until they begin to assume bad faith and resort to edit warring. Your "warning" means absolutely nothing, so I'm sorry you wasted your time. m:DICK, WP:DTTR. Gloss • talk 20:21, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

It wasn't a waste of time. Next, you get you final warning, then I ask for a block. When I said "regular", I meant in wrestling articles. You should leave them to those who understand the concept. The way you phrased your opening remarks there, it seems you were more interested in creating controversy than improving anything. Not the way to go about things. InedibleHulk (talk) 20:25, February 26, 2014 (UTC)

I will not be getting a block and I will not be getting a final warning. Plain and simple. And before you make assumptions, you should probably check your facts. I was one of the most active members of WP:PW from 2007-09 (somewhere around there). And sometime between then and now (while I was inactive) you've apparently stepped into the project. Explains why you don't know who I am, but doesn't give you a reason to try to lessen my contributions here. The way I phrased my opening remarks? You left me a template warning. A user who is almost on his 7th year of contributing to Misplaced Pages, in good standing, a template warning on my talk page. That is not the way to go about things, and if you read WP:DTTR you'd fully understand. Gloss • talk 20:30, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

OK, good to finally meet you. Things have changed since you were active here. That's not a reason in itself to argue your proposal, but the other reasons I've given are. You could be here for 70 years, but if you do the things mentioned in the warning, you deserve it. I don't want you blocked, but it seems like you're adamant about forcing this, and that's disruptive. By "opening remarks", I mean at the personnel talk page, not here. InedibleHulk (talk) 20:36, February 26, 2014 (UTC)

There was no disruptive editing and nothing I did warranted that warning. You began edit warring with me and luckily for you, you stopped before breaking the 3 revert rule. Gloss • talk 20:38, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

And note that my last comment didn't give you the right to break the 3 revert rule. Gloss • talk 20:42, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

Technically, no. But you said you're done, so the war should reasonably be assumed over. Just cleaning up. The revert brought back sources for contentious unsourced material about living people (injuries), so I think I'm excepted. You could probably argue if you wanted, but if you're as done as you say, no point in that. InedibleHulk (talk) 20:52, February 26, 2014 (UTC)

Blocked

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  Dpmuk (talk) 01:32, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

InedibleHulk (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

No dispute with the reason for blocking. There was an edit war, and one side bowing out doesn't negate 3RR. But I'm no single-purpose troll or vandal. There are other unrelated, uncontroversial edits I thought I'd make in the next 24 hours. Probably nothing excellent, but good. Does (a little) more harm than good keeping me locked down. There's still an issue on the page, but other editors have it under control. Right before I was blocked, I baked my new "opponent" some brownies, complimented his summary and politely asked him to make a reasonable change to his approach, rather than revert him. If that doesn't show good faith, what does? InedibleHulk (talk) 01:48, February 27, 2014 (UTC) 01:48, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Accept reason:

See below. Dpmuk (talk) 02:22, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

I'm not totally against unblocking but would like a bit more discussion about what you did wrong and what you will and won't do in future. Not going to actually answer the unblock request as I believe (and this is a personal view not supported by guidelines or policy) that someone who's blocked always deserves a review by a second admin. I won't object to any other admin unblocking if they feel it's appropriate. Dpmuk (talk) 01:57, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

I suppose I should use the edit summary less for my side of discussions. Sometimes I assume others think with the same sort of logic I do, and that they'll go "Oh, right. Makes sense" once I explain or rebutt something. So I just do it to save time. And sometimes it does work. But when it doesn't, it often strikes a confrontational nerve, and that's not helpful. More time discussing on talk could be. InedibleHulk (talk) 02:06, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

I think I know what you're getting at but at face value saying you're use edit summaries less is a bad thing. So, just to make sure that on this issue what I'm thinking you're trying to say is what you're actually trying to say can I ask you to complete the following "you're use edit summaries less and instead..."? (You don't actually have to complete it but it's the best way I can think of to put the question - I would have course like some sort of answer). Dpmuk (talk) 02:12, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, less often than talk pages when faced with controversy. My bad. When I do edit or revert (legitimately), I'll of course still say why. InedibleHulk (talk) 02:16, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

And of course stay away from editing the actual page while using the talk page. Anyway I'm about to unblock you. I strongly suggest you stay away from the article for a while - discuss things on the talk page by all means but I suggest you avoid actually editing the article for a while so as to not inflame things further - even if you think there's consensus I'd let someone else decide that and implement it. You'll be on a very short leash for a while when it comes to that article and it won't take much to get blocked again (I will give the same advice to the other two if I unblocked them). Dpmuk (talk) 02:22, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, of course. I won't touch the WWE personnel at all for a while, whether it's related to this or not. Seems like a magnet for controversy. Something similar going on at Deaths at 2014, and you'll be happy to know another amicable conclusion was reached through discussion while I was blocked. Pretty good, no? InedibleHulk (talk) 02:32, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

Good, good. I think everyone just got a bit heated there. Glad it looks like things are settling down. And yes, WWE and the like does seem to attract controversy. I've noticed problems in these areas more than once before and it's not an area I'd never normally just browse through out of interest. Dpmuk (talk) 02:45, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Nothing wrong with a little heat. Thanks for being cool. InedibleHulk (talk) 02:56, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

Like Gloss, InedibleHulk wasn't as involved with the war than the other two, with one taking the thing very personally. Rusted AutoParts 02:04, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

I am so sorry.

		The Good Friend Award
		I am so sorry...I feel partly responsible for you getting blocked, and for that I sincerely apologize. You and me usually work very well together, and this isn't something I sought. We both got unblocked, and I'd just like you to accept this as a gesture of both appreciation for your efforts and intents, and as a token of apology for getting you in this mess in the first place. Vjmlhds 02:37, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

No worries. It was quick. I've been cut off longer while making a sandwich (the bigger ones, anyway). Gesture accepted. Kumbaya. If we have to fight over this Hogan crap, we'll do it like multiracial sportsmen. No eye-pulling or hair-gouging. InedibleHulk (talk) 02:53, February 27, 2014 (UTC)

NXT Arrival

Yer most recent glossary edit

Of course, there once was a time when most wrestling programs on television were little more than hour-long commercials for house show matches. In many cases, you have filler throughout the entire program (Mulkeymania is running wild, bradda!!!). So it's nothing special, just like a vignette is nothing special when you compare with local promos. This leads into what was really on my alleged mind. Who had it worse back in the day: fans in the Northeast, who tuned in each week to see the best part of the hour occur at the very beginning (you know, the part which ends with "my name is JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEE"), followed by a match which lasted long enough for Howard Finkel to break in and announce exciting World Wrestling Federation action in such exotic locales as Tuckahoe and West Islip; or, those folks in Indiana who tuned into "This is Sam Menacker with All-Star Championship Wrestling and you're watching The World's Most Dangerous Wrestler Dick the Bruiser" week in and out for years? I vote for the former, as Dick had more competitive matches on TV plus (for a while, anyway) Bobby Heenan. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 12:37, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Can't say. I didn't know anything aside from WWF existed till 1989. Most of my Bruiser "memories" come from a few tapes and YouTube, so never got routine enough to annoy. I'd rather hear Finkel interrupt matches to advertise actual wrestling than hear Cole shill his stuff for 2/3 of a Raw, though. InedibleHulk (talk) 21:51, March 9, 2014 (UTC)

300

Hello!

About this edit, I added that cn-tag you removed. My reasoning is that that uncited part, if it should stay, must written something like "Paul Cartledge (or whatever RS pointing out that this is an error in 300) further points out that...", otherwise it´s just us editors saying "this is an interesting error in this film". I´m fine with taking that uncited bit out, but I´d like to hear your opinion. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:40, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

I think it's technically synthesis as is, but it's something viewers may reasonably be skeptical about, and is easily verifiable by failing to find the word "elephant" in Greco-Persian Wars. Harmless bit of OR here, saves those readers some time. Something more contentious, like saying there were elephants (or mammoths), that's the harmful kind.

But I very barely care. Whatever you'd like. InedibleHulk (talk) 08:48, March 12, 2014 (UTC)

In my view "it's something viewers may reasonably be skeptical about" is not good enough, especially in a featured article, so I´ll remove it. We´ll see what happens. Thanks for talking! Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:06, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Use of Complications

We use complications in several cases. First many of the Complications you removed were direct cites from the articles themselves. Often times with things like Cancer, its not the cancer that kills you but stuff such as the Radiation therapy. However that is a complication as you never would have had radiation therapy otherwise and the coroner lists it as complications from cancer. Joe Lala on the 19th is a good article to read on that.

We also use it in cases for strokes where the person does not die right away. Usually secondary infections, swelling or damagae sustained to the blood system are responsible for these deaths. However again, usually the article will say complications from stroke rather than what they are. It is not the single event "Stroke" that kills you, but the effects afterwards of the event. Diabetes is also another usual suspect. Usually its not rapid blood sugar failure that kills you but systemic collapse brought on by the disease over a number of years. There are several of those listed this month such as Butler and the corolio singer that died in Peru. We also use it in cases of multiple problems as it may be tough to say which one directly caused the death.Sunnydoo (talk) 00:18, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

I know all that. Just again, trying for some consistency among immediate and proximate causes on this page. We go from one extreme to the other here, specific as cardiac arrest, then vague as shot. In my opinion, "complications" just begs the question. Points out that more immediate causes exist without telling readers what they are. In those cases, the underlying cause should suffice. This is usually as sourceable as the specifically vague term, we just. Though yeah, sometimes it requires a little OR, and that's not wikicool.

I'll let it slide (your points are valid), but still find it odd. Especially while we're still sticking with "traffic collision" for every death involving a vehicle (also letting it slide, honestly). InedibleHulk (talk) 16:06, March 30, 2014 (UTC)

Saying that to an eminent scientist is likely to make them apoplectic. That is in no way helping him to resolve his problem.

I didn't "follow" him there, I "noticed" him there. You're right about it sounding different to him, but it would be easier for him to accept the label remote viewing has received than fight it. If I'd "helped a young man", would that be agist? He said himself his eyes were failing and it made his citing labourious.

Policeman

Two things. First, I'm not sure that "policeman" is the preferred term for that. Second, at least sources can be found which describe Gene LeBell as such, but there's been controversy with that article amongst MMA fanboys for years, to the point where his role in professional wrestling has taken a backseat. Speaking of that, I watched Rousey-Tate 2 about six months ago. I pointed out LeBell to the guy I was talking to and his response was "Judo Gene? I thought his name was Judo Charlie!" That may give an indication of how well known he really is in the MMA world, versus how he's portrayed on here. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 17:13, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

It sounded a bit weird to me, too. But that's how the Torch sees it. Judo Gene may not get the recognition he deserves, but compared to Flavio Meier, he's something like Roddy Piper famous. Yet, his student/wife will play the recalcitrant tonight and defy the promoter's will. He'll have his article soon enough, and Rousey will get along fine, already being something like Roddy Piper famous.

Anyway, I just clipped him (and the rest) because they were examples. A few start popping up, before you know it, we've got a bona fide farm again. InedibleHulk (talk) 22:30, July 5, 2014 (UTC)

Weird how the Tate-Rousey angle has its own article, too. Thanks for sharing. InedibleHulk (talk) 22:32, July 5, 2014 (UTC)

That was a particularly weird day in my life. Since a large part of it involved hanging out with a federal informant who name-dropped a pair of state senators as mutual friends, it's probably best that I leave further details off of such a public place as this. Besides, if I give away everything on here, no one will buy the book. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 23:42, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

Sounds like a damn fine chapter. Drop me an Amazon link when it's out. Or wherever books are sold, by then.

Poor Alexis played the role of Special Delivery Jones last night, then turned into George Steele postfight. Quite sad. Guess I'm not so psychic. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:39, July 6, 2014 (UTC)

Continuing Kal Rudman discussion here...

...seeing as how this may be getting too off-topic to the original subject or to the project talk page in general. First off, the title of that video reminds me of the clip where Lance Russell and Dave Brown were purported to have stepped away to go smoke a bowl during the commercial break. You know, this one. "Space Mountain will be closed for repairs" is an absolute classic line from Hawk. There's another classic Hawk tagline which has never gotten its due, mainly because it came from their first All Japan promo: "All about good for us. All about BAAAAAD for you".

Modern-day fans seem to find it hard to believe that things were much different with the WWF and Vince during the early 1980s. While he was scheming behind the scenes to take over the business (wrestling historian Tom Burke stated many years ago that it began as early as 1972/3), this was still an era when promotions worked with each other. For example, McMahon made quite a number of appearances on Portland Wrestling, doing promos with Buddy Rose and The Grand Wizard when Rose was main-eventing against Backlund in the WWF and going back to Oregon to wrestle one-offs against Flair and Piper. Another oddity I rediscovered: probably long forgotten is that USA Network actually began as a D.C. version of the MSG Network. Before the WWF had regular weekly programming on USA, they first appeared as part of Madison Square Garden Presents and airing house shows from the Capital Centre. I vaguely recall that he hired away Rich Landrum from Crockett to work the Cap Centre broadcasts, long before he started hiring away others en masse. Anyway, long, long ago, I watched a tape of an MSG show from early 1981, which also aired on USA as part of MSG Presents. Having found a copy of YouTube, I checked it out again. Lo and behold, not only was Yoshiaki Yatsu in the opening match, but Vince actually talked him up as Japan's greatest amateur wrestler, who turned pro due to Japan's participation in the 1980 Olympic boycott. That, in retrospect, seemed weird. Everywhere else I've come across him from his early days in the US, he was simply billed as another Hiro Matsuda protege. If he was in Memphis, he would have been another Tojo Yamamoto protege, just like Onita and a number of others.

There's lots of historical revisionism in that Hogan DVD. The weirdest, though: they include a house show match from Detroit in 1986, which was live-announced by Ken Resnick and Jack Reynolds. There are many gaps in the commentary track, though. George Cannon is seated next to Resnick and Reynolds, but it's unclear whether he's actually part of the announce team or just some random "official". Of course, the Detroit fans know full well who he is anyway. Before the match begins, a fan dumps his soda on Cannon. Yep, very obvious gap in the commentary of some duration, where it appears that Resnick and Reynolds are talking about it at length. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 22:39, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the lesson. You were right about the USA/MSG thing being forgotten. I don't think I ever knew. Cool stuff. Definitely heard Hawk use that "good for us" line in America, but maybe without the "all about". Nice to hear a Japanese star getting credit from time to time. To hear Monsoon and Hayes call any of the "Devils of Japan" matches, you'd think Bull Nakano's single greatest achievement was finding a partner uglier than herself. And to hear Vince call any Jumping Bomb Angel match, you'd swear Norio Honaga and Kazuo Yamazaki were pretty talented chicks.

You probably know Cannon had a "Superstars of Wrestling" well before the famous one, but have you seen the Masked Superstar of Wrestling? Probably some other stuff on that channel you'd like, if you hadn't noticed it. Good variety of old school.

Anyway, I'm off to watch that Hogan collection. Thanks for the tip. InedibleHulk (talk) 00:33, July 10, 2014 (UTC)

And now for something completely different

(With all due apologies to John Cleese)

"Busta Rhymes is like Hacksaw Jim Duggan, been fucking" – from the remix of "Simon Says" by Pharoahe Monch. From what I've read, this isn't exactly the only hip-hop song which mentions Duggan. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 00:24, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

Duggan sucks. Always has, always will. But still, interesting factoid. InedibleHulk (talk) 00:33, July 10, 2014 (UTC)

Per WP:V, even if true, the BFI site doesn't say birth month and day. So I removed them, and left year intact. I haven't contacted the subject yet, but, given his age, I wonder how often he spends time on internet. --George Ho (talk) 23:21, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

Fair enough. I figured it was harmless enough to "ignore all rules" in this case, especially since there's no opposing claim (say, for July 13). Just a choice between possibly wrong and certainly vague. But if you'd rather follow this one, that's fine.

encore

Hello, I clicked on your name randomly. Do you have chance to reply to my Topic about (Law & Order episode: Encore) on the Entertainment Misplaced Pages Website?(73.48.225.235 (talk) 17:46, 20 July 2014 (UTC)).

There's no random with people. You mean "arbitrarily". Anyway, that's a Language Desk issue. I'll check out your question, but I've rarely seen that show, probably not that episode. InedibleHulk (talk) 20:17, July 20, 2014 (UTC)

The recap probably didn't explain if Jack considered the Possibility that (Dobson, Giabone, & Cruz) are involved in Emily's murder. I posted my Old Theory, so do you have a chance to Read my Old Theory today? I hope that You don't Mind emailing me at ralphaelturtle@yahoo.com (73.48.225.235 (talk) 23:29, 20 July 2014 (UTC)).

Like I said, I don't watch Law & Order. I don't know who any of the people in your theory are and the huge block of text is hard to read. I don't want to email you. Here are the episode's writers. Track them down to find out what any character considered. InedibleHulk (talk) 02:48, July 21, 2014 (UTC)

Oh my gosh, you're pissing me off because how do you not know the people in my theory? According to my theory, that's how I thought the Episode was going to end, so please read my Theory & please tell me if It would Make sense for the Episode to End just like That?(73.48.225.235 (talk) 03:45, 21 July 2014 (UTC)).

It would make sense for this conversation to end just like that. I don't have a theory on it. Just the way it is. InedibleHulk (talk) 04:04, July 21, 2014 (UTC)

Punk

This is enought? Punk was asked "will see you back in a ring"? and he answere "no, never". The video was named "I'm never going back to WWE", but the reported said will se you back in a ring, without mention WWE. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 10:29, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Date links in your signature

Hello Hulk: I see you've set up your signature to include internal links to dates and years. I can't figure out what is the purpose of such links. They simply add to the "what links here" listings for 2014 and the particular dates. As a result, the various talk pages you've posted on get linked to the dates and years. This might be considered disruptive linking per signature guidelines. (But I do not see a prohibition for such links in particular.) Something for you to consider. – S. Rich (talk) 15:50, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

The purpose is simply to make these links more accessible. Many people go their whole day without realizing which notable anniversaries are occuring. That's fine, to each their own. I don't want to force them on people, but subtly hinting doesn't hurt. The second main reason is I've always found the "22 July" format ridiculously backwards. I've tried various other suggestions to remedy this, but nothing seems to work without Javascript (which I'm not fond of using).

Not sure I see the problem with making "What Links Here", but a couple of other editors have told me about problems with archiving bots, and generally confusing them. The bots seem to have evolved past that, and while I don't want to confuse people with the format, I also don't want to be confused myself by theirs. In a nutshell, I've considered it each time (four now), and always conclude that the pros outweigh the cons. Hope you don't personally mind. InedibleHulk (talk) 02:28, July 23, 2014 (UTC)

I can't see how a link would help anyone with anniversaries by seeing the link near your signature. How about going to your Preferences page, and the Appearances tab. It gives several options, including the MDY format you prefer. I really don't know if the linking is "disruptive" or not. But I thought you might know and/or ought to consider this. (I may make an inquiry on the Signature talk page to see if anyone really knows.) Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 02:48, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

If they see it, they might click it. If they don't see it, they can't. That Preferences thing is one of those I tried. Simply didn't work. If something is disruptive, I think disruption should be apparent. So I don't think this is. If you want to ask for another opinion, I'll consider that one, too. But I don't want to change.

Occupational Health Psychology

Hi InedibleHulk. Just letting you know iss246 blanked your sound edit in the lead. I have taken the liberty of restoring it for you as a matter of principle. But I fear iss246 or psyc12 will just delete it again. That is why I walked from this biased mess of an article, 4 months ago so I could focus on a lot of other articles, which I have been doing, rather than get 'caught up again' with these 2 editors. I am a pretty determined bugger and I strongly believe that this article needs to be either improved drastically or deleted, but I'm sick of trying to get some NPOV and worldwide view into this damned coatrack article. If you feel that your edit is worth more than a quick delete by iss246, please restore. Thanks.Mrm7171 (talk) 15:14, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
