Please help to edit the site in some other areas before making requests for new sports/leagues/promotions to be added.

As much as I personally want to see all those added too I don't have the time to keep them up to date, and as you can see from the fighting section various promotions have been added and then abandoned.

As a compromise how about we add two from your list and look to get those completed to a decent standard before we add too many to handle?

Thanks - I'll be able to get the full catalog for AAW in pretty quickly, but I think I need to request some setting changed so that its events would be structured on the same data model as UFC, not a football/etc. league. When I go to add an event now I'm not seeing space for the Event Name, though I am seeing Home/Away scores, which aren't relevant for Fighting.

Could that change be made?

Whoops yes I needed to add a team to it for this to work. Done now where you can add wrestlers if you want.

We're getting a little closer - I didn't need to add wrestlers so much as adding events, and when I do I'm not seeing seasons come up on the League page like I'm used to. There are ~300 events for AAW now submitted to the DB, how do I get the seasons to appear?

Ignore that, user error by me - my script wasn't committing anything, which was why I wasn't seeing them!

Can we add PWG next to the Fighting section? I'll try to prioritize the independent feds with the most following to at least get the metadata in there for people that use agents like SportScanner for Plex or Kodi. SportScanner doesn't pull in event details like the card, etc., so I can get 90% of what they'll need just with my script.

Ah, @Zag - sorry, I screwed up, typo on PWG "Pro Wrestling Guerilla" (should have 2 Rs on Guerrilla). How hard is that to change? I can re-run all the events in 15min if that's the easiest way to fix - could we actually make it just "PWG"?

I was going to suggest a few name changes myself so that everything is a bit more uniform.

CHIKARA Pro < Chikara (Defunct as of 2020)
Combat Zone Wrestling < CZW
EVOLVE Wrestling < EVOLVE
PROGRESS Wrestling < PROGRESS
Pro Wrestling Guerrilla < PWG

Totally good with all that, and yeah, forgot Chikara was actually closed. The one tweak I'd maybe make, only after having done some testing with things like SportScanner for Plex, is that it seems to struggle with abbreviations that are close to it, so maybe going full name across the board will work the best?

Fixed the 'Pro Wrestling Guerrilla' naming until we have a consensus on the league names. My choice would probably be bigger names otherwise we will get dupes but I don't really mind.

Can you re-import the Pro Wrestling Guerrilla events? It will fix the naming.
