This page is used to choose the '''professional wrestling collaborations of the week''' topic will be picked using this page. These are specific [[professional wrestling]]-related topics that initially have no article, have only a basic [[Wikipedia:Find or fix a stub|stub]]-like page, are in need of more information, or need to be thoroughly [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|sourced]] and [[Wikipedia:How to copy-edit|copy-edited]] to make it a ''[[Wikipedia:Good articles|good article]]'' candidate. The aim of this project is to improve the quality of Wikipedia's professional wrestling-related articles through widespread cooperative editing. It is our hope that some of these will go on to become '''''[[Wikipedia:Featured articles|featured articles]]'''''.
Each week a '''professional wrestling collaboration of the week''' topic will be picked using this page.
 
This is a specific [[professional wrestling]]-related topic which initially either has no article, has only a basic [[Wikipedia:Find or fix a stub|stub]]-like page, is in need of more information or needs to be thoroughly sourced & copyedited to make it a ''Good Article'' candidate. The aim of this project is to improve the quality of Wikipedia's pro wrestling related articles through widespread cooperative editing. It is our hope that some of these will go on to become '''featured articles'''. For general discussion of the tasks of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling|WikiProject Professional wrestling]] please see the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Professional wrestling|Project's Talk Page]]. Any registered user can nominate an article and can vote for any number of the nominated articles. Every Monday, the votes are tallied, and the winner will be promoted for a week to potential contributors.
At any given time there will be six active collaborations; one will be chosen from each of the following five categories: wrestling legend, current wrestler, tag team, stub article, list, and pay-per-view. Rather than setting a specific length of time for collaborations, each collaboration will last until the article has reached a certain level of quality. Most collaborations will be active until the editors involved believe it is ready to be nominated for [[Wikipedia:Good articles|good article]] status. The list collaboration will proceed until it is ready to be nominated for [[Wikipedia:Featured lists|featured list status]]. The stub article collaboration will continue as long as possible, although there may not be sufficient information available for good article status.
 
For general discussion of the tasks of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling|WikiProject Professional wrestling]], please see the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Professional wrestling|project's talk page]].

* Giving reasons ''why'' an article should become the ''PWCOTW'' may convince others to support your nomination.
}}<noinclude>
* Can the wider pro wrestling community easily contribute to the article? Or is it something only a small number of people will know about?
 
* Is the article a stub or very small?
==Selecting the next PWCOTW==
* A good place to look for articles that might be worthy of a nomination are the [[:Category:Professional wrestling stubs|professional wrestling stubs]] and [[:Category:Professional wrestling biography stubs|professional wrestling bio stubs]].
===How it works===
*Articles are kept as COTW until they reach a certain goal.
**For "Wrestling legends" the goal is [[WP:GA|GA]] status.
**For "Current wrestler" the goal is GA status.
**For "Tag team" the goal is GA status.
**For "Stub article" the goal is Start-Class or higher (any articles expanded fivefold will also be nominated for a [[Template talk:Did you know|Did you know]] appearance on Wikipedia's main page).
**For "Pay-per-view" the goal is GA status.
**For "Lists" the goal is [[WP:FL]] status.
**'''If the nominated article is already a Good article, then the goal becomes [[WP:FA|FA]] status.
 
===How to nominate===
;Guidelines
{| class="wikitable"
* A removed article can only be renominated after '''a second round of articles are chosen'''.
|-
* You must be a registered user to nominate an article.
!style="background-color: #ecf1f1; font-family: serif; font-size: 2em;"|I
* If you have already nominated an article in the same section, all your existing nominations require at least '''three votes''' each for you to nominate a new article.
|<div><big>'''Add nomination'''</big></div>
* Please only nominate or "vote" on articles that you plan to work on when they become COTW.
Copy and paste the following template to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject-Professional_wrestling/Collaboration_of_the_week&action=edit&section=7 bottom of the list of nominations] on this page and fill it out.
 
;Considerations for nominations
* Giving reasons ''why'' an article should become the PWCOTW may convince others to support your nomination.
* Can the wider professional wrestling community easily contribute to the article? Or is it something only a small number of people will know about?
* Is the article a stub or very short?
* A good place to look for articles that might be worthy of a nomination are the [[:Category:Professional wrestling stubs|professional wrestling stubs]] and [[:Category:Professional wrestling biography stubs|bio stubs]].
* Articles that are already classed as [[Wikipedia:Good articles|good articles]] can be nominated; the goal for these articles will be to elevate them to [[Wikipedia:Featured articles|featured article]] status. For a list of current good articles, see [[:Category:GA-Class Professional wrestling articles|professional wrestling GA-Class articles]].
* Consider renominating a past candidate for COTW which had strong support but didn't quite make the cut.
* Also consider nominating an article from [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Cleanup listing|our project's cleanup listing]] that has several cleanup banners.

===Voting===
A vote or a show of support for an article shows your commitment to support and aid in collaborating on that specific article if it is chosen. Although you are not required to fulfill that commitment, we ask that you only support articles that you are able to contribute to so that this collaboration's goals of expanding and improving articles can adequately be achieved. Feel free to vote for '''as many candidates as you like'''.
 
Any '''registered user''' is encouraged to vote so long as you abide by the policies of Wikipedia, specifically [[Wikipedia:SockpuppetsSock puppetry]].
 
Please add only support votes. Opposing votes will not affect the result, as the winner is simply the one with the most support votes (see [[Approval voting]]).
 
To '''vote for a nomination''', edit the nomination and add the following to the bottom of the ''Support'' section:
# <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>
This adds your username and a time stamp to the numbered list item. The vote will look like this:
# [[Username]] 08:59, Jul 1 July 2005 (UTC)
 
If you wish to '''withdraw your vote''', do not remove your vote; instead, add an asterisk and strike-through tags to your vote as shown:
<nowiki>#</nowiki>'''<nowiki>* <s></nowiki>'''<nowiki>[[User:Username|Username]] 08:59, Jul 1 July 2005 (UTC)</nowiki>'''<nowiki></s></nowiki>'''
This allows Wikipedia to correctly calculate the remaining votes and will appear like this:
 
# [[Username|Username2]] 08:39, 1 July 2005 (UTC)
#* <s>[[Username]] 08:59, 1 July 2005 (UTC)</s>
# [[Username|Username3]] 08:39, 2 July 2005 (UTC)
 
Note: We do not choose the article through [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]]; we choose it through a majority voting system.
 
===Ties===
In the case of a tie, voting will be extended for 24 hours. If there is still a tie, the candidate that was nominated first wins. During the extended voting period the old collaboration will still be active. In the case of extended voting, the collaboration period will be reduced to 6 days.
 
===Pruning===
As voting comes to a close, any nominations that do not win will be removed. Removed nominations can only be renominated after a second round of articles are chosen.
Nominations will be moved to [[/Removed]] if they have not received 3 votes after 7 days on the list, 6 votes after 14 days, 9 votes after 21 days, and so on.

* He is fairly important to the wrestling world, and was a main stay during the 60s, 70s and 80s. His article needs sources, and a whole lot of work done. [[User:Kris Classic|Kris Classic]] 22:37, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
