—Project
- 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 February 14, we are at 10.07%, with 472 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.
- Based on the members list, there are currently 236 members participating in WikiProject Professional wrestling.
