Scotty

Scotty 2 Hotty Was Not Changed To Raw. It Just Said He's Back On Heat Not Raw! So I Deleted Where It Said He Was Traded. 68.57.47.90 11:34, 15 February 2007 (UTC)User:Kari2MuchFan[reply]

Well his WWE profile is now on the RAW roster. though i would like some sorta confirmation -- Paulley

Heat is a show on the Raw Brand. To appear, he had to be "traded" for a while. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.195.235.74 (talk) 01:45, 24 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

he appeared twice on sunday night heat, once in a tag match with jim duggan, and again in a singles match. Hollywoodd 21:05, 24 July 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kperfekt722 (talk • contribs)

use of "wiggers" in article

I don't have a problem with the term, but I know a lot of people do, so I'm left wondering if it's appropriate for the article. 69.213.87.103 07:39, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It should definitely be removed. You're basically saying his gimmick is a "white nigger".

Date of Birth

You have two different date of births in this article, which is the right one? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.188.85.223 (talk) 12:04, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

date of birth

SCOTTY 2 HOTTY's date of birth is not ethier one of the two listed here. his real birthday is July 2. i got it from the July 2007 edition of WWE MAGAZINE. —Preceding unsigned comment added by WWEFAN99 (talk • contribs) 00:09, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Scott Garland (professional wrestler) → Scotty 2 Hotty

Resolved

Move to "Scotty 2 Hotty"? RandySavageFTW (talk) 03:26, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, started off as Scott Taylor, then Scott "Too Hot" Taylor. Darrenhusted (talk) 08:16, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Darren. D.M.N. (talk) 15:05, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I thought we were supposed to get rid of quantifiers. Also, Scott Garland (born July 2, 1973) is an American professional wrestler, better known by his ring name, Scotty 2 Hotty. RandySavageFTW (talk) 16:01, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support, and at the LEAST, it should be moved to Scott Garland (wrestler). No other article specifies professional. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 23:08, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support --Degenerate-Y (talk) 02:01, 27 August 2008 (UTC)Degenerate-Y[reply]
Oppose - multiple ring names; however, this should be moved to Scott Garland (wrestler). GaryColemanFan (talk) 22:59, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So? Scotty 2 Hotty is the best known one. And everyone always goes on about how there can't be quantifiers... Yet when I request a move everyone opposes. RandySavageFTW (talk) 00:32, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support Do I need a reason, come on he is widely known as Scotty 2 Hotty.--WillC 17:06, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Darrenhusted. Govvy (talk) 16:59, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We're supposed to get rid of quantifiers, aren't we? RandySavageFTW (talk) 19:00, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And we're not meant to !vote to establish a consensus, but we are voting so while we are ignoring a rule don't expect us to be strict in the ways we vote. This is a case by case subject. Darrenhusted (talk) 08:17, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

what RandySavageFTW (talk) 17:15, 3 September 2008 (UTC) I can't believe people opposed... It's not his best known name, it has a quantifier, and the quantifier is WRONG (should be wrestler, not professional wrestler). The article even says best known as Scotty 2 Hotty. RandySavageFTW (talk) 17:15, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - wrestled under various ring names, though it has been moved to Scott Garland (wrestler)S_RX 02:32, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done
