Alignment[edit]

The Thesz/Flair and Outstanding Wrestler lists are centered not aligned to the left like the other lists. I do not know how to fix this. BulbaThor (talk) 21:25, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2012 additions[edit]

When are the additions from 2012 going to be announced in WON? --Geekboy6 (talk) 19:08, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2013 additions[edit]

Now I'm waiting for the additions from 2013. --Geekboy6 (talk) 17:45, 10 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you can't wait for them to be announced, please don't start putting your own in without sources. Sherick (talk) 02:19, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

2014 additions[edit]

When are you putting up the additions from 2014? --Geekboy6 (talk) 20:34, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sources?--HHH Pedrigree (talk) 20:36, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No sources, no additions. If you own the newsletter, please insert it here. We'll need the name of the issue, the ISSN and the date of publication. starship.paint ~ ¡Olé! 07:38, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The awards are coming out in two weeks (26th). The voting period just ended today. Anyone adding winners before that is making shit up. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen) (talk) 22:19, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

2016 awards[edit]

When will they be announced? Onur T 05:18, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure but can somebody please ban GeekBoy6? Sherick (talk) 00:10, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I admit that I'm chomping at the bit, because the awards are taking longer than usual to post up. No need for a ban. --Geekboy6 (talk) 15:57, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Chomping at the bit? You're vandalizing, and you've done it more than once over the last month. Sherick (talk) 21:05, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Have you thought that some of those awards may have been clinched already? --Geekboy6 (talk) 00:33, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And you would know this how? Your opinion is not what this website is about Sherick (talk) 03:06, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Meltzer said he's not sure exactly when, but soon. Possibly next week. He's waiting for a slower week. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(ZOOM) 05:11, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Geekboy6: Stop trying to guess the winners. When the awards issue comes out, the winners will be added. That won't be this week nor next week. There is zero need for your guesswork in the meantime. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(ZOOM) 04:38, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Best and Worst Gimmick Descriptions[edit]

What needs to be done or citations found to restore the Best and Worst Gimmick Descriptions? Did this all start over finding a way to describe Broken Matt Hardy? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.14.93.241 (talk) 09:30, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

We need the WON saying "these are the gimmick. The New Day as 'something'" --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 17:59, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

2017 awards[edit]

I’m not adding anything before they’re issued this time. I’m just simply asking, when will they be announced? --Geekboy6 (talk) 16:16, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Whenever Dave counts all the votes. Sherick (talk) 22:15, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

La cuestión de Harley Race en 1981[edit]

Buen día a todos, lastimosamente no soy muy bueno expresándome en inglés por lo que me disculpo con esta comunidad por dicha falta y les ruego la comprensión del caso. Generalmente se ha dicho que Harley Race fue ganador del "Thesz/Flair award" del año 1981 y así está escrito en la mayoría de los "data base" del wrestling. Pero, tengo el link de un usuario que recolectó las listas anuales de los premios y señala como verdadero ganador de ese año en esa categoría a Ric Flair: https://sites.google.com/site/chrisharrington/mookieghana-prowrestlingstatistics/wo_awards_history#TOC-1981 Ignoro cuándo se ha incurrido en dicho error. Revisando listas de los premios en los '90s uno lee claramente como ganador a Ric Flair en 1981 en la categoría "Wrestler of the year", pero en los últimos años señala como ganador a Harley Race y ese resultado está en esta página y en otras que son también importantes. Les pido, por favor, revisar si el dato que les digo es el correcto. Posiblemente el error se debió a una equivocación en el momento de escribir las listas y que Dave Meltzer no lo revisó nunca más y se dejó el error inexplicablemente. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pajpacu (talk • contribs) 19:33, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Worst Feud of 2017[edit]

I'm a little confused. Did Bray and Randy win this? The article lists it as Patron, Johnny Impact and someone else yet on Bray's page it lists him as the winner.. --Evil Yugi (talk) 19:52, 4 May 2018 (UTC)--Evil Yugi (talk) 19:52, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I was a vandalism. Thanks --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 22:06, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Match Of The Year 1983 Error[edit]

For some reason, the winner is listed as Ric Flair vs. Harley Race, yet that's actually the match that finished 2nd with 17 votes. The winner was Ricky Steamboat & Jay Youngblood vs. Sgt. Slaughter & Don Kernodle at The Final Conflict. This can be checked by looking at the WON Yearbook for 1983. I have corrected it. --Kadaveri (talk) 23:29, 17 February 2019

Rookie of the Year 2021[edit]

"Jade Cargill is the only female winner of the category". Not really, just a few entrants prior to Ronda Rousey being listed as a winner, 3 years before Jade. Can someone fix that, please?. WrestlingFan25 (talk) 05:20, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Corrected the error. You welcome! (WikiMaster2K15) 06:54, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Troll messing with the 2022 awards[edit]

It seems some troll just added a bunch of 2022 winners to several categories, while changing some of the past winners as well. Can someone please revert to a previous version? The 2022 awards only come out in February or March 2023. Thanks! 85.138.100.114 (talk) 21:43, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
