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 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 WikiProject Professional wrestling please see the 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.

When a page is selected to be the "professional wrestling collaboration of the week" it's talk page will be tagged with

This is the current professional wrestling collaboration of the week!
Please help to improve it to match the quality of an ideal Wikipedia professional wrestling article.


Selecting the next professional wrestling collaboration of the week

Considerations for nominations

  • Giving reasons why an article should become the PWCOTW may convince others to support your nomination.
  • 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?
  • A good place to look for articles that might be worthy of a nomination are the professional wrestling stubs and professional wrestling bio stubs.

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:Sockpuppets.

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:

# ~~~~

This adds your username and a time stamp to the numbered list item. The vote will look like this:

  1. Username 08:59, Jul 1 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:

#* <s>[[User:Username|Username]] 08:59, Jul 1 2005 (UTC)</s>

This allows Wikipedia to correctly calculate the remaining votes and will appear like this:

  1. Username 08:39, 1 July 2005 (UTC)
  2. Username 08:39, 2 July 2005 (UTC)

Ties

In 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

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.

I nominated this one because it's been on the "Articles to clean up" list for ever, it's a subject a lot of people should be able to get into. MPJ-DK 18:59, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • A pretty important tag team in the history of WCW, the article is incredibly short and focuses more on a gimmick that never even made it out of the writers room.«»bd(talk stalk) 17:58, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
