Hello. Please provide an edit summary with each edit you make. Thank you, and happy edits! --DXI 03:17, 14 May 2005 (UTC)


You seem to be making up information based on bits of information, for example:

In 1957, Disney met Muppets creator Jim Henson, and they started out by creating the early Muppet characters with many similarities to Walt's Mickey Mouse, notably Kermit the Frog. They appeared in Muppet Magic on The Ed Sullivan Show between 1958 and 1962.[1]

There is a video release titled Muppet Magic on "The Ed Sullivan Show" which compiles the Muppets appearances on Sullivan, but it was not a regular segment, and Walt Disney had nothing to do with it.

Please stop adding information like this. —tregoweth 06:52, May 15, 2005 (UTC)


Just adding another edit to see if the "new message" alert gets your attention. —tregoweth 07:51, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I know, but I can be stupidly optimistic sometimes. :) —tregoweth 07:59, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Recent edits

Given your history of strange and very questionable edits, I suggest you consider adding a lot more to yuor articles than what is already obvious to the potential end user. Take a look at the Wikipedia:Manual of style to see what I mean. Just friendly advice. 71.102.71.86 05:52, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Simpsons TV ads

Hi. I've noticed that you've made a lot of virtually identical one-line articles on Simpsons TV ads. Please consider starting with a single article on all of them, and breaking them out into separate articles when they are sufficiently developed to warrant such treatment. Thanks. -- BD2412 talk 04:22, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)

Here we go again...sigh...look, would you please listen to what we're trying to tell you? Those last two Simpsons entries were just useless. "Do The Bartman," or more specifically, "Bartman" already had an entry at Bart Simpson: "Deep, Deep Trouble" was more than a music video, it was a single from The Simpsons Sing The Blues. PLEASE do some research first. Short articles are welcome. Too short and they're useless as research tools and are not the best use of this site's resources. Please feel free to leave word on my talk page if you'd like some help with style and formatting. Or, if you prefer, e-mail me. OK? - Lucky 6.9 06:15, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thanks - good work merging together the List of The Simpsons TV ads. Cheers! -- BD2412 talk 10:29, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)

[edit] cut and paste moves

You recently moved Miss Flamiel to Ms. Flamiel using what we call a "cut and paste move". This is not the preferred procedure at Wikipedia for changing the name of a page. If you were a registered user, you could (and should) have used the "move" functionality. I've rolled back your changes, replacing them with a proper article move (which retains the article history, as required by the GFDL).

May I suggest that you register so that you can take advantage of the enhanced capabilities that go along with being a registered user?

Thanks for editing Wikipedia! Kelly Martin 16:51, Jun 25, 2005 (UTC)

Please don't do cut and paste moves (i.e., Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends Characters to List of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends characters). tregoweth 02:03, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Babs and Buster Bunny

Do you pay any attention to your edits? You changed a sentence in Babs and Buster Bunny to read "They are siblings, and despite their similar appearance and shared surname, they have "No relation!" It's incorrect, and you didn't seem to notice that you left the sentence contradicting itself. tregoweth 00:35, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Burger King characters

Surely the Burger King Kingdom article can say what there is to say about the characters. Gazpacho 04:44, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Spam/Warning

Please do not add commercial links (or links to your own private websites) to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. See the welcome page to learn more. Thanks. -- BMIComp (talk) 4 July 2005 23:02 (UTC)

[edit] Categories and redirects

Do not use redirects in categories. Please go read Wikipedia:Categories for deletion to see how to take care of duplicate categories. tregoweth July 5, 2005 21:31 (UTC)

[edit] ConAgra substubs

Unless you have something more to say about a product beyond an opening statement, may I suggest that you first research your subject before hitting the keyboard? I refer to the statements you made at Healthy Choice and Hebrew National. These may be worthy of articles, but they have GOT to have more than a statement that they're ConAgra products. I've redirected these both back to the ConAgra article for now. If you can add any more information such as history, advertising campaigns, availability, individual products and so on, I encourage you to do so. Otherwise, you're creating a bit of a cleanup problem. Remember, this is supposed to be a research site. Ask yourself: How would you like to come here while trying to find info on, say, Hebrew National...and all you see is that it's a ConAgra brand? Think about it. Also, please consider establishing an account. Lots of fun, I assure you. - Lucky 6.9 5 July 2005 21:32 (UTC)

BTW, Hunt's makes more than just tomato sauce. They also make ketchup, tomato paste and pasta sauces. Did you know that they are based in Fullerton, California? See what I mean about doing some research first? - Lucky 6.9 5 July 2005 21:40 (UTC)

[edit] Fairly Odd Parents

I'd like you ask why you reverted my FOP edits? Most of the old article was Fairly Badly Written Purplefeltangel 9 July 2005 01:13 (UTC)

[edit] Nestlé candies

Please stop creating two sentence articles that appear to be copied from Nestlé's website. Encyclopedia articles should be unbiased and not call brands of candy "great tasting." tregoweth July 9, 2005 17:52 (UTC)

My friend, it's high time you stopped this. You are creating a ton of work for others to clean up after you. In addition, posting copyrighted material to this site is a violation of US and international law. Of course, I don't expect an answer. I do, however, expect you to play by the rules as do others on this site. - Lucky 6.9 9 July 2005 19:24 (UTC)

If you feel that something bad is going down, it should be reported somewhere. Reverting all of this user's edits in one go (and negating all of the work he/she has done) is pretty simple for us administrators to do, if you show that there is definitely a problem. Not sure where to report it, though, since it's not technically vandalism in progress... - Omegatron 20:08, July 9, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Cartoon Cartoons

Please stop moving all the articles out of this category. It has been proposed for renaming, and you should have consulted the Categories for renaming article listed, before creating Category:Shows on Cartoon Cartoons. As such, I am reverting all of your edits to the effected categories. <>Who?¿? 01:09, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Hanna-Barbera and Cartoon Network Studios cartoons and characters

Please stop moving articles to Category:Hanna-Barbera and Cartoon Network Studios series and characters as the current category Category:Hanna-Barbera and Cartoon Network Studios cartoons and characters is up for Cfr. Thank you. <>Who?¿? 01:42, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Disneyland

I have no idea why you keep changing information on the Disneyland article to say it is Walt Disney Studios. Disneyland has never been a working movie studio, and it has never been known as Walt Disney Studios ever. I don't know where you're getting your information, or if you are vandalizing the page, but you need to stop. The information is false and has no truth to it whatsoever. If you do it again, I will place you on the vandalism in progress list. --Evanwohrman 01:23, July 10, 2005 (UTC)

  • Consider that done. I've busted my own hump over that article and a few related ones. I'm not going to let this yahoo disrupt my hard work. - Lucky 6.9 06:58, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
    • Good grief, every doggone edit on this IP is not only cartoon related, but damned questionable. I discovered a bogus nanostub called Dr. Wilbur Wonka which stated that this was a character in the Roald Dahl books. No way. No such character. - Lucky 6.9 07:04, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
      • I think it's a new character from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie. But, yeah, the balance between acceptable edits (adding categories) and insane edits has definitely shifted to insane the last few days. tregoweth 07:13, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
I think it's time an admin block this IP. He/she continues to put nonsense edits up, reverts articles back to the way they wrote it (like putting images back that were removed), and doesn't tend to have very many legitimate edits. I just has to revert on of those a few minutes ago. --Evanwohrman 23:54, July 16, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violations at The Adventures of Tintin (TV series)

The plot summaries you added to The Adventures of Tintin (TV series) appear to be taken verbatim from Nelvana's site, which is a copyright violation. I have reverted these changes; please don't do it again. tregoweth 04:09, July 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violations

Please stop cutting-and-pasting material from other websites. This is copyright infringement. tregoweth 06:26, July 16, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The United States and North America

Please note: the United States and North America are not the same thing. tregoweth 00:52, July 19, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] DDR Games

Please stop adding games from Category:Dance Dance Revolution series into its parent categories. According to Wikipedia:Categories, lists, and series boxes, "An article should not be in both a category and its subcategory". --Poiuyt Man talk 21:41, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Page moves

DO NOT MOVE ARTICLES BY CUTTING AND PASTING THEM. At the top of articles is a link that says "move." Use that instead. tregoweth 15:35, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

Anons don't have a move link. This person needs to register. - Omegatron 18:59, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
In that case: If you sign up for an account, you get a much easier way to move pages! Doesn't that sound neato? tregoweth 21:37, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
Clearly not.  :-)
You shouldn't move pages until you get an account. If you want a page moved and refuse to get an account, ask a member to move it for you.
You should really get an account. You have nothing to lose except the visibility of your IP address. - Omegatron 22:02, July 22, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] More stuff you won't read

[edit] List of television spin-offs

[edit] Categories

Please stop creating categories for very small groups. There is no need to create a category for two articles.

[edit] Other begging

If you won't start making useful edits, at least register a username and respond to talk pages. tregoweth 15:35, July 22, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] "The Walt Disney Show"?

What is this The Walt Disney Show? There was a show called Walt Disney, but my copy of Disney's official encyclopedia doesn't mention any such show. tregoweth 18:49, July 24, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Idiotic edits

This is not your playground. You are about to be blocked from further editing. Wouldn't break my heart, by the way. - Lucky 6.9 03:57, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Unseen characters edits

Anonymous user, please check the talk page for List of unseen characters. We're trying to remove characters who are silent, especially those like the Pink Panther who are basically pantomime characters. There is talk of whether to create a seperate list for mute characters, but *please* stop adding to the present one, while we're trying to clean it up. Aleal 18:53, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Candy pieces?

Why in the world did you create the redirect "candy pieces"? Is it so hard to just type "candy pieces"? tregoweth 22:50, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Arthur Q. Bryan

In Arthur Q. Bryan, you changed

Bryan first came to prominence in his late 30s as a voice artist for Warner Brothers animation unit, headed by Leon Schlesinger.

Bryan first came to prominence in his late-1930s as a voice artist for Warner Brothers animation unit, headed by Leon Schlesinger.

Can you figure out why this edit is incorrect? tregoweth 01:38, August 2, 2005 (UTC)
