Happy New Year!
The Chronic has given you a bottle of Cristal! Cristal costs $350, and hopefully this bottle has made your New Year's Day better. Spread the spirit of the New Year by giving a bottle of Cristal to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing!
Give a bottle of Cristal to someone else by adding {{subst:User:The Hybrid/Finger}} to their talk page with a friendly... wait...
WWE Judgment Day
How did he have a point? He changed who made the pin, I reverted and provided a SOURCE, and you reverted back with no go reason. That could be considered vandalism (reverting SOURCED info to unsouced info). —Preceding unsigned comment added by TJ Spyke (talk • contribs) 01:55, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Is there a reliable source? That video can't be used for the same reason YouTube can't be used for WWE/WCW/ECW/AWA/WCCW video, they are illegally hosting the content and aren't allowed. TJ Spyke 02:10, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- It's clearly not a case of Wikilawyering. See WP:YOUTUBE, links to sites which violate copyrights (which you used) is clearly not allowed. TJ Spyke 02:41, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, it is sad that you don't get it. Whether the video is accurate or not doesn't matter since being from a site that is violating copyright laws means it can't be used. The issue is over, but you are still complaining because you were wrong and don't want to let it go. The situation is over, so stop bringing it up on multiple pages.

Archive
Would you like me to archive your talk page?--TrUCo31 05:30, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- I'm Sorry, just trying to give you a hand, as I thought you may have wanted January discussions archived. Sorry for the bother.--TrUCo31 05:35, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
What the hell is your problem? The man was just offering to archive your page. A simple "no thank you" would have been better than this.-- bulletproof 05:54, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Thats all you had to say rather than the previous comments.TrUCo31 14:44, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- There's that "shake" sense of humor we all know and love. -- bulletproof 22:47, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Friend?
Can you know cool everything between us down and become friends? I would in the future like to be nominated for an administrator and if I have not resolved the feud between us, this may interfere. So it wont, and plus I want to be cool with you, can we be friends?--TrUCo31 03:02, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
- Hmmm, dont recall Armageddon, what did we disagree on? But yeah ok, just good that its you know settled between us. Thank you.--TrUCo31 20:39, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oh that. I was a very unexperienced editor back then, I did not know half of the things I was saying. If that discussion were to happen today, I would have agree with you because I now know that the WWE live events section has nothing to do with PPVs and they sometimes take a while to update their schedules. --TrUCo31 00:27, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

I saw your comments on the Major Brothers talk page and I brought the renaming discussion to the WP:PW's talk page. Your comments would be appreciated. --Endless Dan 15:20, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Just wondering
Did you happen to take a picture of Chris Jericho as IC Champ? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 22:58, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
- I'm sure the image looks good either way. I mean, all the images you take are of high quality. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 01:48, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
- That's not bad. Its cool. Not to sound annoying or anything, but do you have any more images? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 03:27, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
- Well, I don't know if you have crossed-off Shawn Michaels off the list. Just sayin'. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 21:31, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Image:Stormmorley.jpg
A tag has been placed on Image:Stormmorley.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Misplaced Pages have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Sdrtirs (talk) 19:14, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
WrestleMania XXIV - Career Threatening Match
Hi Mshake3. If you have a problem with the way the career threatening match is listed, can you please discuss it on the talkpage instead of edit-warring with TJ Spyke. It does not do anyone any good edit-warring; I think a conclusion could easily come by discussing it at the talkpage. Regards, D.M.N. (talk) 18:43, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- I was busy until now, here's my response to the situation. AS DMN stated: edit warring isn't helpful. However, TJ's been warned about edit/revert warring many times. I'm considering making an admin board post about him (once again), as he is on revert patrole. I'll let you know when I do, if you're interested in commenting there. Also, he promised to change his ways...which he hasn't done too much from what I've seen. My opinion on the match name nonsense is still the same: it should be one way or another. Flair's "career threatening" should be listed, since Money in the bank and many other things are tagged onto matches. If you need to contact me, email me or post on my talk. RobJ1981 (talk) 04:48, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
- I've created this to hopefully solve the problem once and for all: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Professional_wrestling#Match_names_and_taglines:_let.27s_settle_this_already. RobJ1981 (talk) 00:53, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
I know that we've had our differences in the past, but thanks for reverting petty vandalism on my talkpage. ;) D.M.N. (talk) 16:28, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
