Our goal is to get the number of Stub-Class articles down to 0, in due time. The current article count is listed below, I have placed the forumla that is on the project page that is updated everytime the bot is run and it tallies up our articles and where they are and lists them as seen below, so that no one has to worry about making sure it's updated manually before the newsletter is sent out. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone could help expand and/or source an article or two. A list is provided in the stub-class category of stub articles that need to be improved, and some should be fairly easy.
As part of the project's New Year's Resolutions, there is an ongoing effort to decrease the number of stubs to 10%.

Hi, I saw that you reassessed this article recently. Since you lowered the rating two classes (from B to Start), I was wondering if you could leave a message on the article's talk page specifying what you feel is preventing it from being B-class, or at least C-class. I appreciate you helping with article assessment, but some clarification would be appreciated. Thanks, GaryColemanFan (talk) 21:17, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If you can somehow fit the bit about Hester's jersey number into the article, please feel free too. I feel the topic is also interesting, but do not know how to actually integrate it into the article itself.

Hi. I looked over this article per your request and I made a few stylistic updates. Please note that in the filmography table, there is no need to use the markup rowspan=1, and we no longer wikilink "year in film" dates. Also, I inserted the filmography table style code that is endorsed by the WP:ACTOR project. I wanted to tell you that there is no requirement to add references for television and film roles in the filmography table, as we accept the actual appearance as proof of its existence. I didn't remove the references you added in those tables, although they rightly could be. I assessed the article at a C class for quality. The career section could be enhanced by expanding critical reaction to Stewart's appearances or content regarding how he may have gotten the roles or content from reliable sources regarding his roles, etc. How this is handed can be seen in higher rated articles from the WP:ACTOR lists. Good work. Wildhartlivie (talk) 07:39, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As part of the project's New Year's Resolutions, there is an ongoing effort to decrease the number of stubs to 5%. As of April 25, we are at 7.54%, with 361 articles currently in Category:Stub-Class Professional wrestling articles. It still would be greatly appreciated if members would expand, source and improve stub articles, and a list of well-known wrestlers and tag teams that should be fairly easy to improve is included on the stub article subpage.
If you are actively editing and contributing to articles under the scope of WP:PW, it is suggested that you add your name to the list of active members.
