Entry: Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) - A4492424
Author: cheneyism - U1688434

After much time and little thought, I have finally decided to turn my old entry into an all new and full fledged update. So here it is, the update to A4492424, which was 5 years out of date.

A4492424 is the one you've submitted here -- it looks like it's the update to A302969.

The little preface in italics will need to be changed, though -- I understand your point, but it's just not really in line with house style here. You could start with a short paragraph that briefly explains pro wrestling, and then links to the pro wrestling entry for people who want more info.

Also, I'm not really sure what you mean when you call the ECW a "promotion" -- could you explain that, please?

Now TNN->now TNN

You talk about ECW as if it were a separate entity near the end, is this like Altria owning Kraft?

Hi cheneyism,

good of you to update this entry, nice work! I'd also suggest that you'll add a footnote or so to explain 'promotion'. Regarding the opening paragraph, I think it helps - perhaps you just get rid of the tags and leave the text as it is.

Hope you don't mind a couple of nitpicks:

- The Begining - > The Beginning
- On the night of 27 August ,1994 -> On the night of 27 August, 1994
- The End...Almost > The End... Almost
- you'll have to replace all the double quotes " with single quotes '
- Pay Per View -> pay-per-view
- At the end of this Pay Per View The champions were as follows -> At the end of this pay-per-view, the champions were as follows
- put the ECW Champions in a dotted list, like you did with the ECW Stars
- trying prove they were the better promotions -> trying to prove they were the better promotions
- release “Rise and Fall” -> released 'Rise and Fall'
- 2 disc DVD -> double-disc DVD
- 3 hour documentary -> three-hour documentary
- 2nd -> second
- 2 very heartfelt -> two very heartfelt

Despite this long list, good work!

Thanx everybody for the suggestions and feedback. As you can see, I fixed those pesky typos and technical errors (I'm so bad at that, usually proofreading doesnt work for me cuz it still makes sense to me). Any nickpicking is more than welcome, I'd rather have all the kinks worked out. I knew that intro paragraph was going to have to go or be changed but i still havent figrued out how to do it. I guess i'll prolly have to write a whole new intro, but im still not sure. Any help on this topic would be greatley aprreciated. Till then
or

How is this coming along? Have you been able to do much more work on it?

admitedley i have had very little time to wrok on this, as i broke my laptop and now only go on the interent at work. (hey i push buttons at a radio station, who cares) Infact this is the first time i thought about this entry probably since the last time i posted anything

Let us know when you're ready for this to progress then

Just bouncing this up to see if it's still being worked on.

From his PS, it looks like his last post was 2/19, so I'd consider him AWOL.

Okay, I'll pop this out of the Update Fourm. Thanks all,

Jims

Thanks, Jimster!

hmm, see what happens when i have no computer. anyways maybe it'll get fixed now, if i ever rmember to come back

Nice entry and i must say the old Ecw was a lot better
