Hello, Cubs197, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Cubs197, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

Hiya Cubs !!!
Hi there, Cubs. Just stopping by, to wish you well.

Archiving
Hi,
I've set up this page for auto-archiving, as discussed.
Normally, I prefer to explain how to do stuff, but in the case of archive set-up, it's easier to just do it for you. The voodoo to make it work is here; the bot should come along within about a day and kick things off. Note the archive box at the top which, currently, will say "no archives yet (create)" - don't create anything, just let the bot do its thing.
It's set to 14 days (14d), you might want to change that. Note that it won't archive very small threads or things with no sigs in (ie no date) - you can cut those yourself and paste 'em into the archive page if you want.
So - that's about it; no action required, just let the bot do its thing, and - if I've done it correctly - all should be well. If it goes wrong, of course, give me a shout. Cheers! Chzz ► 05:17, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Modern Family
Unexplained????? How is that unexplained, it said right in the edit summary why it was removed contrary to your message stating to explain it in the summary — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.193.133.34 (talk) 01:12, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
Rockies
I was told to remove this by Yankees 10 after I create the article.--108.244.57.165 (talk) 19:52, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
- Ok, but his information should still remain on the page. You can insert a link on his name to direct people to the article. Cubs197 19:54, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
Well I wasn't told to do that so I don't know.--108.244.57.165 (talk) 19:59, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
Jungle Emperor Leo
Why was my edit reverted? The article present it is fact that this is a difference from the manga. It is not. The source review is also down. --82.164.219.88 (talk) 19:34, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
- The information you had deleted was cited. If you believe the information is incorrect, try to find a reliable source that agrees with your position. Cubs197 19:40, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
- Does a publication of the manga count as a reliable source? Or is that original research? Regardless, the source (which was dead when I first edited) is back online and it's contents does not match the claim of the article.--82.164.219.88 (talk) 23:45, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
- From the recent English-Japanese bilingual edition by Jitsugyo no Nihon Sha: "Leo: [...] Ken'ichi looks lonely... I want to cheer him up, but I can't talk to him... [...]". (英語コミックス ジャングル大帝 [レオ編], 実業之日本社 (August 29, 2013) ISBN-9784408110189, page 161). Which goes on to a sketch about Coco trying to talk to Ken'ichi with the punchline being that his "human impression" is just a random phrase he picked up without any understanding of it's meaning. (p. 162).--82.164.219.88 (talk) 13:41, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
I Beg Your Pardon?
Splitting a huge paragraph into smaller paragraphs doesn't count as constructive? Plus adding a link? I'd like a little more clarification as to what you mean by my edit to Axis victory in World War II. 70.27.131.43 (talk) 18:58, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

New deal for page patrollers
Hi Cubs197,
In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.
Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Speedy criteria modified
Hey, just thought I'd let you know that I modified the speedy criteria you listed under Cartoon ntwork as they don't appear to technically apply to the article in question. The article is possibly just vandalism, but it's hard to tell sometimes when you assume good faith. Actually, no, it's got to be vandalism. Nonetheless I've retagged it as an article on an existing topic as it is implausible as a redirect. Cheers. Matthew Thompson talk to me! 14:56, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
