List of TNA World Tag Team Champions[edit]

Nominator(s): WillC
Toolbox

I am nominating this for featured list because I can, no I'm joking. I'm nominating it to improve the list title histories of TNA. So far I've worked on List of TNA X Division Champions and now I'm moving onto TNA's tag title history. All comments are accepted and will be fixed as soon as I find out about them. I copied off of List of TNA X Division Champions so it has the same format.WillC 04:51, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from MPJ-DK
  • Comment: The sorting by name columns in all three lists aren't sorting correctly, some by first name, some by last name but not consistent. Also are championship teams with names normally listed the other way around with "Team name"Individual A and Individual B) or am I just getting geriatric?? MPJ-DK (talk) 06:47, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not sure what you are talking about with the sorting thing, everything looks fine to me, besides that the table has off centered lines but I can't see to fix that. I've checked all the links, so it may just be you. As for the teams arrangement, I'm following other recent FLs that have passed recently like List of WCW World Tag Team Champions and List of ECW World Tag Team Champions.--WillC 07:04, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well one example is Adam Jones - sorts by Adam, not by Jones and Samoa Joe sorts like his last name is "Joe". I checked the two WWE tag pages which said the opposite but I don't see the harm in either. MPJ-DK (talk) 08:58, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't know what to do there to fix that problem I'm not too familiar with the template.--WillC 09:02, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Instead of using the {{sortname}} template, use the {{sort}} template and you can set it up like {{sort|Jones, Adam|[[Adam Jones]]}}--Truco 13:59, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That is how it already is in the article.--WillC 14:19, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed it, you needed to use {{sortname}} actually.--Truco 14:31, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support, looking good MPJ-DK (talk) 06:58, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from Truco
Lead
  • The TNA World Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling championship contested for in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling's (TNA) Tag Team Division. -- do not capitalize Tag Team Division its not proper.
  • The first and second paragraphs can be made into one.
  • TNA then created the TNA World Heavyweight and World Tag Team Championships, which were unveiled on TNA's online podcast TNA Today on the May 15 and May 17, 2007 editions. -- TNA then really doesn't transition well, how about As a result, TNA created...
  • On the respective editions, the championships were awarded to the then-champions by Jeremy Borash and TNA's primary authority figure Jim Cornette. -- Clarify that these then-champions were the holders of the NWA belts
  • The championship was officially presented to the public and awarded to the first official champions on May 17 to the last NWA World Tag Team Champions under TNA banner, Team 3D (Brother Ray and Brother Devon). -- this is basically stating the same thing as the previous sentence, needs fixing
  • Reigns that were won on episodes of TNA's primary television program, TNA Impact!, aired on television two to nine days from the date the match was taped. (1)Since we know the name of the company, no need to have the acronym in the Impact link (2)Pipe link tape to broadcast delay
  • Fixed, and the official title for Impact is TNA Impact, Impact is just a shorthand.--WillC 15:43, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • The inaugural champions were Team 3D (Brother Ray and Brother Devon), who were awarded the championship by being the last NWA World Tag Team Champions under TNA banner. --Add the before TNA Banner
  • Beer Money, Inc. (Robert Roode and James Storm) currently hold the record for most reigns with two. -- comma before with
  • Styles and Tomko won the championship under the name of Christian's Coalition, but left the alliance during their reign. -- I don't think you really need to state this in the lead, this would fit best in the notes
  • The overall count should be at the end, not in the middle of the paragraph.
List/notes
  • In the first note, state the acronym of the NWA as (NWA)
  • This was a tag team match with Joe teaming with then-TNA World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle, in which the person to get the fall would win that person's championship; Joe's TNA X Division Championship and Angle's TNA World Heavyweight Championship were also on the line. -- so what did Joe win?
  • This was an "All or Nothing" match, in which Joe's TNA X Divison and World Tag Team Championships were on the line as well as Angle's TNA World Heavyweight and IWGP Third Belt Championships. -- comma before as well
  • Sting won a Four Way match, which also involved Christian Cage, A.J. Styles, and Samoa Joe on August 27, which aired on the August 30 episode of TNA Impact!, to become Angle's partner. -- its irrelevant to state who it was, its too much PLOT
  • This was a tag team match with Joe teaming with then-TNA World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle, in which the person to get the fall would win that person's championship; -- no need for the then-
  • Instances of the episode should be this episode
By team/wrestler
  • The highlight should only be on the name of the wrestlers not the entire row
  • Not sure how to make it just highlight the name.--WillC 15:43, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I believe you have the wrong link seeing as there is no current National Champion.--WillC 17:42, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't see the difference between the two in terms of highlighting.--WillC 18:27, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Fixed.--WillC 20:49, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
References
  • Sorry to be a dick but the PW Torch reference needs to have TDH Communications Inc as the publisher and PW Torch as the work--Truco 14:31, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Fixed, no problem.--WillC 15:43, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- Previous issues resolved; article now meets WP:WIAFL. Excellent job, and I'm pretty sure any further comments will be addressed.--Truco 21:15, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you for supporting.--WillC 21:47, 4 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comments -
  • En dash for NWA-TNA.
  • In the last sentence of the first paragraph, move May 17 to after the Team 3D part.
  • Team 3D being the first champion is repeated in the second paragraph.
    • Yeah, to show the championship history. The first paragraph is more an introduction to how the title came to be, while the second is about the champions and statistics.--WillC 23:03, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Do the real names of the Beer Money Inc. team need to be repeated a second time?
    • I guess not, I'm just use to doing that.--WillC 23:03, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Make the em dashes unspaced or change it to a smaller en dash. Also, I think "those two being" can be chopped entirely.
  • Note for Samoa Joe: "to win the TNA World tag Team Championship." Capitalize "tag".
    • Done and it was a typo, they are so hard to find when you write the article, it is so weird.--WillC 23:03, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note for Lethal and Creed: Change January 09 to January 9.
  • Something is weird in the formatting of the combined reigns by team table. The first two entries have part of the team name cut off. I suspect that the notes are doing it, but am not sure for certain. There was an FAC a while back where I found a similar issue, but no one could figure out how to fix it. Maybe you'll have better luck.
    • Done. If the article that was at FAC had a ref note next too the sections that were cutting into each other, it was the ref note. Just make a space between the names and the ref note and that should fix it.--WillC 23:03, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • The main article is getting expanded like the X Division page, right? Just asking because it's a short list. Giants2008 (17-14) 22:40, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Before I support, I want to ask about the YouTube links. Are they part of an official TNA channel? If they aren't, that would cause copyright concerns. If they are official, there's no problem. Giants2008 (17-14) 00:18, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It an official TNA Youtube channel. If you would like, I will give you a link from their official site, showing claim to the account?--WillC 00:27, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support - All my issues have been addressed, and it appears to meet FL standards. Giants2008 (17-14) 00:15, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support, all issues resolved. Dabomb87 (talk) 03:54, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Dabomb87 (talk · contribs)
  • "On the respective editions" "On"-->In
  • "Beer Money, Inc. (Robert Roode and James Storm) currently hold the record" "currently" is WP:DATED language; why is it "hold" instead of "holds"?
  • "which was set by the team"
  • "Even though"-->Although
  • "supposedly only meant for tag teams"-->supposedly only intended for tag teams
  • Per MOS:BOLD, don't use bolding as a symbol or for legends. You need to fix this on List of TNA X Division Champions also.
  • Spell out the names of the states. Fix this on the TNA X Division list also. Dabomb87 (talk) 00:09, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sources look good. Dabomb87 (talk) 03:54, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • What makes http://www.wrestleview.com/news2006/1179270939.shtml a reliable source?
    • The site is only reliable for results, but the way it is used as a redirect to the TNA Today video introducing the TNA World Heavyweight and World Tag Team Championships. If you want I can always use Cite Video and link directly to the video?--WillC 02:10, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Likewise http://pwtorch.com/artman2/publish/TV_Reports_9/article_29158.shtml? I'm not too worried as long as this site isn't being used for any contentious info, e.g. BLP. Dabomb87 (talk) 00:09, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Been a reliable wrestling newsletter for many years and has very experienced journalist that have multiple interviews with high profile wrestlers and results dating back to 2003. That is as much as I know at the moment.--WillC 02:10, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
