Single Editor Self-Promoting/Destructing this Article

When reviewing the History of edits on this article it is clear that there is a single editor whose sole purpose is to advertise their own website and remove/ minimize mention of any other Doodlebop fan websites.

This editor, in my opinion, has not made a positive contribution to the Doodlebop article.

A short list of the destructive/promotional edits this editor has made:

• 15 March 2006 – Added promotional link title

• 16 April 2006 - Removed all fansites except one – Added promotional link title

• 2 May 2006 – Added affiliate ad to other exposure.

• 2 May 2006 – Added affiliate ad to merchandising.

• 2 May 2006 – Put typos in the URLs of all the other fansites purposely causing 404 errors on the links.

The editor doing this is obviously affiliated with TogetherForever (deedeerooneymoe dot net)

Shandolad removed 1 ad. I removed 1 ad and fixed the Links for the fansites. I removed the deedeerooneymoe dot net External Link

I’ve opened this discussion to allow all editors to this page to try to reach a consensus on what to do with the Doodlebop fansites.

One option would be to remove them completely.

Another option would be to continually remove the spamming site when they add their links or advertisements to the article.

Other editors comments please.

And they are back

5/13/06 - Once again they added affiliate ads to merchandising and other exposure and removed 1 of the other fansites.

And they have not visited this page to talk about the issue.

[edit] Bus Driver Bob

The above is interesting; the Doodlebop Fan Wars, as it were. I'm an adult fan, largely at first because I don't get cable and am stuck with CBC and Global, but now because I just damned like them. You'll note all the parents and grandparents in Doodlebop concert audiences who are having as much fun as their kids...this is a lot more fun that Captain Kangaroo or Mr. Dressup was, and sure nowhere near as tame as The Friendly Giant; anyway the article doesn't mention Bus Driver Bob and the invariable bus tour; I'll try and think of the "formula" for his appearances and add it, unless another someone out there wants to take the initiative.Skookum1 17:25, 5 July 2006 (UTC)Further comment: the D-bops are turning a whole generation of kids onto exuberant song and dancing like, I'd say, never before; just wait until these kids hit their music-producing years without all the usual inhibitions against performance, "letting your body go" and just downright having fun in public. They're so much fun they downright un-Canadian, in fact; all the better....Skookum1 17:25, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ugh

This show is torture. It should be used to interrogate Al-Qaeda prisoners at Guantanamo Bay.

• How about I use it to interrogate YOU? 1001001001111100000 09:33, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Critisim

In their CD "Rock and Bob With the Doodle Bops":
The song "I want to be bigger" could easily be considered very offensive to little people.
On the song "Write a letter" Moe clearly states that they have a letter for Allah.

• Refer to this page. The letter's for Ella, not Allah. 1001001001111100000 09:33, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Two characters on this show (Moe and Rooney) are clearly homosexuals. This show is nothing more that another attempt by the ultra liberals to make feminine behavior by men seen normals and acceptable to children.

• They only wore the tutus once - during that Wobbly Whoopsy or whatever it was, but only because it was Deedee's birthday that episode. 1001001001111100000 09:33, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
