GA Review

Lead

• Is there a source for DOB?

World Wrestling Federation (1999-2001)

• She lost the Championship on the January 31 edition of Raw to Harvey "Hervina" Wippleman in a 'Lumberjill Snowbunny match'. - is there a link to this type of match or an elaboration that can be given.
  • Explained. Nikki311 23:47, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Other

• Is there any follow to her current state of today? Any news, because this article is outdated.
  • Updated. Nikki311 23:31, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
• There are no images of the subject.
  • There are no free images, but lack of images isn't a reason to fail a GA. Nikki311 23:06, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
• I also feel that her personal life section is too small. More than half of the article is about her "career," there has to be some more information on her personal life no?
  • I found a page in Lawler's book that I had previously overlooked. It had quite a bit about her personal life, so I was able to add quite a bit of info in. Nikki311 23:31, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
• Is there a source for her finishing moves?
  • Not from a reliable source, so I removed them. Nikki311 23:06, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
• Why is the section called "championships and accomplishments" and not just "championships" if that is the only thing she won?
  • Removed "accomplishments". Nikki311 23:06, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
• The Kat then appeared at the Royal Rumble in the 'Miss Royal Rumble Swimsuit Contest', where she appeared in a bikini made out of Bubble Wrap. - does Bubble Wrap really have to be capitalized?
  • Fixed. Nikki311 23:06, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

   Although a short article, it is relatively written "good," though there is a couple of prose and other types of issues that need to be addressed before making a final decision in this GAN. Article  On hold--S_RX 21:27, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Great work. But for the finishing moves, what source was trying to be used to source the finishing moves?S_RX 03:14, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

There isn't one at all. A fly-by editor added those in awhile ago, and I never got around to deleting them until now. Also, I'm still looking for a source for her DOB. It is listed all over the net as September 29, 1971, but I have yet to find a reliable source for it. However, in Lawler's book, he says they met on July 1989 ("two months before she turned 19"), so simple subtraction tells you that she was born in September 1971. I'm going to do some more searching for the exact date, but if I can't find it, I'm going to change her birthday to September 1971 and cite Lawler's book. Nikki311 17:54, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Ok take your time. Notify me when you make up your mind about the DOB. For the finishing moves, is there a results page that says how she won a match, as that could be used to source the finishing move w/ a quote.S_RX 20:28, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

She didn't really have "wrestling matches"...usually just stripping matches. I've added stinkface for now, because she did perform that, especially during the match with Runnels. I'll see what I can find, though. I've got a lot going on right now, so it might take a day or two for me to finish everything, but it'll be done before seven days. Also, I trust your judgment, so no second opinion is needed. Nikki311 21:09, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

That works. Take your time. Also, thank you for trusting my judgment :)--S_RX 23:13, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Alright. I think I'm done. I searched all the reliable sources I know of that include results (SLAM, WrestleView, etc. etc.) but couldn't find any sources for any other signature moves. I also couldn't find a reliable source for her birthdate, so I used just the month and year (as previously mentioned). Is there anything else you can might want me to fix, expand, or explain?

Great job. That is fine with what you attempted to do. When more info is available, you should attempt to add it. Also, when an image is available it should be added. This GAN is a Pass.--S_RX 02:10, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
