  1. The reference tells you the theme song, but not the tagline. A reference needs to be found of the tagline.
    One doesn't need to be found as it is on the poster to the left. –LAX 19:57, 17 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  2. The tagline and theme song can be separated into two sentences.
    LAX 20:11, 17 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  3. Wiki-link "main event"
    LAX 20:11, 17 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  4. Explain or wiki-link "Survivor Series match"
    LAX 20:11, 17 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  5. change "Team Raw" and "Team Smackdown" to superstars from the Raw brand against superstars from the Smackdown brand.

  2. Wiki-lined "elimination match"
    LAX 18:58, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  3. The second sentence as a whole needs a reference
    Not every sentence needs a ref. –LAX 18:58, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

  5. Source needed for The teams feuded on both shows, and Batista, the captain of the SmackDown! team, suffered an injury after being beat down several times
    LAX 19:05, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  6. Can "died" be changed to "passed away", it sounds better.
  7. Saying Bischoff despised Cena is more like a personal opinion.
    LAX 18:58, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  8. Did Bischoff choose Angle to just take the title from Cena, or to face him in a match for the title, hoping Angle would win?
    LAX 18:58, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  9. On the November 7 edition of Raw, Angle refused to compete due to the "you suck" chants from the audience. needs a ref.
    LAX 18:58, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  10. Angle finally agreed to compete when Bischoff censored the crowd, and let him have a special guest referee, whom Angle chose to be Daivari. needs a ref as well.
    Once again, not every sentence needs a ref. –LAX 18:58, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  11. Ref needed for Triple H returning after three months.
    LAX 19:05, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  12. The two had been aligned since 2002, and were partners in a tag team match on the show. needs a ref.
    And finally, not every sentence needs a ref. –LAX 18:58, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

  1. Some of the matches should be shortened, as they give a little bit too much of play-by-play.

Aftermath

edit
  1. After losing to the SmackDown! brand, Eric Bischoff was fired by Mr. McMahon on the December 5 edition of Raw. - needs a ref.
    Zenlax T C S 18:54, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

    Zenlax T C S 18:56, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  3. There should be a paragraph about the aftermath of the Angle/Cena feud and the Triple H/Ric Flair feud.

Results

edit
  1. The match note about the Undertaker needs to be indented.
    No, because it is a notable point in the event, similar to the dance segment at WrestleMania 23, which isn't indented. –LAX 01:35, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Other On-Screen Talent Table

edit
  1. If the person does not have an article, the link should be removed. A GA should not have red links.
    LAX 01:32, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
  2. It should start at the top of the event section.
    LAX 01:32, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Notify me when these are answered. iMatthew 2008 19:55, 17 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

GA review

edit

Okay, I decided to take a look at this article (even though the last time I reviewed a PW one I was attacked on the project talk page), it's looking pretty good, but there is some stuff that needs addressing.

  • There appears to be something wrong with refs 8 and 11. There is random bolding in them, and apostrophes in various places where they probably shouldn't be.
  • "The tagline was "The Beginning of the End."" <- Needs a source.
  • Should it be mentioned somewhere that Long/Bischoff was named WON's worst match of the year?
  • Television shows should be italicized per the MOS. There are several uses of Smackdown! and Raw which are not.
  • Considering the Benoit/Booker match is the first match of a series, the eventual result should be mentioned in the aftermath.
  • "Triple H attacked Flair's head, after he used a screwdriver to Flair's head" two uses of the phrase "Flair's head" in one sentence, that should be fixed.
  • The paragraph about the Survivor Series match in the event section uses a lot of the same words over and over again.

That's about all. -- Scorpion0422 22:35, 19 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
