  • I'll do this one. Give me a few days! MathewTownsend (talk) 01:41, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Take your time, I'm in no hurry.--WillC 04:25, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Background
  • "with credit for the name going to TNA wrestler Shark Boy" - I don't see that in the citations.
    • Crap, I put the wrong source in there. I will try to find it again.--WillC 22:08, 19 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • Found the ref and added.--WillC 22:15, 19 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • "TNA released a poster promoting the event featuring the tagline "Three Year Anniversary Spectacular" at some point beforehand. TNA planned a thirty-minute pre-show prior to the event" - is this necessary, as I don't see it in the references.
    • Its part of the production of the event; both are kinda common sense, since they are right in front of the reader. The pre-show occurred and the poster is in the article.--WillC 22:08, 19 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Storylines
  • I understand the various storylines. Where I get confused is sentences like: "The TNA X Division Championship was defended by then-champion Christopher Daniels against Chris Sabin and Michael Shane in a Three Way match at Slammiversary." - because all these are storylines leading up to Slammiversary, right? Hard Justice etc.? And Slammiversary hasn't happened yet in the article.
  • This is clear: "A storyline heading into Slammiversary revolved around America's Most Wanted (Chris Harris and James Storm; AMW) recent losing streak and decension ... " because it's clear that Slamiversary hasn't happened yet. It is "Event".
  • Well its all meant to be in past tense. I could change that one to "TNA promoted a Three Way match for the TNA X Division Championship between then-champion Christopher Daniels, Chris Sabin, and Michael Shane heading into Slammiversary."--WillC 01:14, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm not underestimating the job you have done in putting this article together. You have done a big job. Much if it is just that I'm not familiar with topic enough. I think that making it clear in the "pre" sections that Slammiversary hasn't happened, perhaps by mentioning it as little as possible until you get to the "Event". Just a suggestion, as I'm not the one who wrote the article, nor could I do so! MathewTownsend (talk) 01:26, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'll try that, do you have any more issues with the article I can take care of, I'd love to get this to GA like the others I have done.--WillC 01:40, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • No. I've run through the article and all seems fine. I really do appreicate your time and effort. MathewTownsend (talk) 01:56, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well I switched the X Division beginning over and I checked around for anything that would confuse a reader, didn't really see anything.--WillC 02:58, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
