Don, Colonel, and the Three Mice in screen
 show name = Rat-a-tat format = 2D animation year started = 2013 episodes duration = 7 mins genre = Chasing Comedy
Action film/TV show 		for audience = 5-9 years no. of minutes = 78 × 7 mins no. of episodes = 78

Rat-a-tat is a comedy TV show owned by Toonz Media Group. This TV show is also animated in 2D. It's episodes show funny situations if the roommates were present Charly, Marly, and Larry. It is also as same in Oggy and the Cockroaches. These show are only the fictional casts on source.

About the show

Once upon a time, a sweet morning arrived in Don's house. Early time, he drinks a coffee to let him work in tricky situations. Although his roommates named Charly, Marly, and Larry are a great disturbance to Don, making him cry, stumble, or get uncontrolled. His neighbor, Colonel is always active to save Don although a few seconds, this situation always goes down or doesn't achieve. In a show, Don plays with his 2 big speakers connected to his music phone, making him all fine and good, and after it disturbs onto his roommates, slamming, throwing the bed wisely to hit them.

Main Characters

  • 'Don' is a pink-bodied dog that is the only one main character of the story. He always chases his roommates whenever possible to get, steal, or tackle his things out of his room. He will be always active by any episodes with his friend Colonel. Chasing the roommates or cooking, drinking, exercising is only his work. This source changed as of 2014.
  • 'Colonel' is a green dog that is always with his good friend Don. Anyway this character helps Don cleaning, chasing Don's roommates, or making him as his troop. Colonel and Don are always hit by Rox their neighborhood that slap/spanks them off-screen or on-screen. This character has also a bad issue to Don's roommates, making him sad in an interactive action. He loves shotguns, or grenades. If this character can also be a control to Don, what will Don do to Colonel?
  • 'Charly' is named after Charlie Brown but changed ie to y as a source. It is the leader of the Don's 3 roommates. Charly finds any stuffs/technics just to steal and give it to his fellow roommates. He leads active and accessing Don to trick him and steal Don's stuffs. He has an attribution to Larry/Marly to help or follow him do what Don/Colonel also do. He is also a preview to his proper home to Rox. Also this leader is like Joey in Oggy and the Cockroaches opening theme. He is called "a source of a bodyguard"
  • 'Marly' is a fat-big rat also a group of Don's roommates. He always get all stuffs what is inside the refrigerator. He is a friend to Don sometimes. He will rarely grow big as Dee Dee in Oggy and the Cockroaches.
  • 'Larry' is a thin-tall rat and a troop of Don's roommates. He is the tallest of Don's 3 roommates but except he is thin, skinny, or tall size. Larry could also help Charly raise all stuffs whatever. Larry's target is also be followed to Charly, making a mess just for them.
  • 'Rox' is a fierce grey dog that hate Don and Colonel shaving, pushing, or any bad control to him. He easily spank Don/Colonel off-screen or on-screen if background only. He is the strongest character in all and is more triggered to do any types of muscle workout to keep him healthy. Rox is the source of Don and Colonel but sometimes he is also a friend to them, in an episode Don carries him as the caretaker of the baby to drink milk. In anyway, Rox sometimes makes him hardheaded to Don's roommates if not followed by Don/Colonel a crash to him. He also tricks the roommates' action to put it in a directed way.

Special

This show also launched for Cartoon Network on 2014 and Nickelodeon on 2013, for kids age 5-9, also making the younger children to laugh, and make tricks in the planned episodes. An example of Don chasing his roommates using his huge mirror had 10 million copies sold worldwide. The episode that Don and Colonel drinking coffee together watching TV was the famous action in the show.

13:36:43, 12 June 2015 review of submission by Paul Grant Bradbury


How do I upload a photo? Paul Grant Bradbury (talk) 13:36, 12 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Paul Grant Bradbury: If the photo is a selfie, Commons:First steps can guide you through uploading it. If someone else took the photo, then whether it may be used on Wikipedia depends on several things, such as when it was taken, whether it was published, where it was pubilshed, etc., but generally the copyright holder would need to release it under a suitable license. The question may be moot, however, because the draft does not show that Paul Bradbury meets Wikipedia's inclusion criteria. Worldbruce (talk) 17:40, 13 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I hired a gentleman from India on fiver to create this page and I fear that he has abandoned me... Please help. I have a successful business and a radio show but am unable to create a page in which I can share this with those clambering to research me.

You will find us amused by your plight and unsympathetic. Are you actually notable by our standards? Can that be Verified? I shall take a look at the draft and review it if it has been submitted. Fiddle Faddle 19:19, 12 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Not submitted, but it will not be accepted for the reasons I have stated on it. Fiddle Faddle 19:26, 12 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

18:34:34, 12 June 2015 review of submission by U47


Hi,

Respectfully, I disagree that the subject of this article is not notable. This station had a vast impact on the development of the city. It was the primary station used for the transport of troops in WW2. The station it replaced has it's own page despite being in existence for a far shorter time, so I feel this does meet requirements for notability.

I feel I've done a good job referencing, but welcome any specific criticism rather than the blanket rejection this article received.

Thanks in advance,

U47 (talk) 18:34, 12 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Accepted It could do with more referencing, but I view this as sufficient to pass muster. Thank you for asking here. Fiddle Faddle 19:06, 12 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koyama_Press The link above deals with a small press in Canada. There is only one source listed. Why was it able to get through and ROTLAND cannot due to notability standards? Hannaguido (talk) 22:09, 12 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No precedent is ever set by any article for any other. If it were we would have a brutally fast descent into idiocracy Fiddle Faddle 07:07, 13 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Am working on a draft article for a geneticist. Think I have it ready to go except for the photo and brief text below photo. Don't know how to do the photo and text. I now see I've asked my question in the wrong place. Sorry for the error, never mind.

How do I add information below the photo of Dr. Bryant Villeponteau, and will I need to add a box around Contents on the left side and how do I do that? I'm so worn out from reading how-to pages I finally thought I'd just ask for direct help. Thank you very much.

08:55:40, 15 June 2015 review of submission by Editandsave


Hi, This is my first Biography article creation. The subject person is my friend who is budding director in the Indian film industry. I have created this by confirming all information from him. I had submissed this draft exactly a month ago. The status after submission was that "draft will be reviewed within 2 to 3 weeks". Its been more than a month. So thought would query if anything is missing or if I need to provide some more information for the quick review.

It would be great if someone can help me with this. Thank you in advance.


Editandsave (talk) 08:55, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Editandsave - You cannot actually use anything that you have been told, only actual published sources are acceptable, see WP:Verifiability for the reasons for the rule. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 19:58, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, the intended name of the article was : /Rob_O'Neill_(Irish_Footballer) and not the current 'JohnM1055/sandbox/Rob_O'Neill_(Irish_Footballer)'..is it possible to erase the 'JohnM1055/sandbox/' so it looks more professional. Thank you in advance

Request on 18:59:10, 15 June 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by JameswoodSK


I'm somewhat at a loss as to why some articles are allowed (for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_Donnelly), which say very little about the notability of the person, and the one I submitted, which says much more. Does it really read like advertising??? I almost feel that it's not worth the effort to make any improvements -- I was told that the references weren't sufficient, so I changed them. Now a different reviewer is telling me something else. Is it time to throw my hands in the air and give up? JameswoodSK (talk) 18:59, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi JameswoodSK - Firstly; forget about comparing your draft to "other worse articles", there are almost five million articles on the English Wikipedia, many thousands of them are pretty much guaranteed to be rubbish, but that is no excuse for adding to the problem. By the way, there is nothing in the history of the other article you mentioned to show that it ever went through a review.
Now about your draft, I've done some cleaning up as far as formatting is concerned. The main problem it still has is that there are no references for most of the biographical details. If you can solve that with solid reliable sources (mainstream press, literary magazines, academic articles), it would get a lot closer to acceptability.

20:53:04, 15 June 2015 review of submission by Cabsco


Cabsco (talk) 20:53, 15 June 2015 (UTC) Is there a limit or minimum character required as to each article submission? If yes, what is it and if no what's the maximum character each article must contain. Thanks.[reply]

Hi Cabsco There is no minimum except that the content must at least demonstrate that the subject is notable. That requires at least a few sentences, which must be verified by proper references to independent reliable sources. The maximum is around 100 kilobytes of text, by the time an article reaches that length some of the content should be split out into one or more "sub" articles.

08:45:09, 16 June 2015 review of submission by Londonalley


Can other Wikipedia articles be considered reliable sources for referencing? Can magazine article be used as a source if it's written in a language other then the article? Would IMDB.com be good source for verifying credit of music video director? Would website like Vevo displaying director's name be used to verify directors credit for the music video? can press release by the museum be used as a source to verify authorship of an artwork? Londonalley (talk) 08:45, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Londonalley (talk) 08:45, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Londonalley:
  1. "Do not use articles from Wikipedia as sources." (WP:CIRC)
  2. "Citations to non-English sources are allowed. However, because this is the English-language Wikipedia, English-language sources are preferred over non-English ones whenever English sources of equal quality and relevance are available." (WP:NONENG)
  3. "Self-published media ... are largely not acceptable. This includes any website whose content is largely user-generated, including the Internet Movie Database (IMDB)." (WP:USERGENERATED)
  4. Vevo's Terms of Use make it sound like at least some of its content is user-generated. Other content may come from the major record labels, but what comes from where is unclear to me.
  5. A press release by a museum would likely be considered a reliable source for the authorship of an artwork they exhibited.

14:53:49, 16 June 2015 review of submission by Jimmybikram


Jimmybikram (talk) 14:53, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply] 

sir please help me for my artile  what to do for publishing,
i was tryied a lot then i submitted but this time also not accepted.
@Jimmybikram: The draft does not establish that Jimmy Bikram fulfills the basic notability criteria for people. References are required to demonstrate notability. They must be reliable secondary sources independent of each other and the subject. There need to be multiple sources, and they need to provide a significant depth of coverage. The draft cites no sources, so the subject does not appear to be a suitable topic for an encyclopedia article. Wikipedia is not for self-promotion. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:00, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What is happening with my article

The requested changed for this article made and it was resubmitted/. I am wondering if it is in the process of being reviewed or if it is in limbo somewhere. If someone would please advise. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wallyl22 (talk • contribs) 16:01, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't help that you have numerous drafts in different places.
As far as Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Joel S. Schuman is concerned, in this edit you removed the submission feedback templates that included the "resubmit" button. As you haven't resubmitted, it isn't waiting for review. I will add back the templates you deleted.
You also have a draft at User:Wallyl22, but that is the wrong place for a draft article. The purpose of a user page is given at WP:User pages.
You have yet another version at User:Wallyl22/sandbox.
Your best bet is to concentrate on one draft (preferably the first one, as that is the one on which you have already had feedback). Correct the points noted in the previous reviews, then resubmit. To avoid confusion, I suggest that you blank the other pages (or for your sandbox you can undo your most recent edit on that page and thus go back to the redirect to Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Joel S. Schuman, that redirect having been put in place when the draft was moved). --David Biddulph (talk) 16:46, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,

This article was declined for formatting but I am a bit confused as to what it is referring to. It had not been picked up on previous submissions so am wondering what it could be. I am sorry if I am missing something very simple.

Kind regards, Samir Soormally

Hi Samirsoormally, I'm afraid I don't see a serious formatting problem either. Perhaps Elee would explain the problem. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 10:56, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

20:44:15, 17 June 2015 review of submission by Chrisfischer1

My page was rejected on grounds of notability, mainly "The scope of their activities is national or international in scale." I think that InnerCity Weightlifting is notable in this sense because it is a unique, and successful solution to a nation-wide problem (gang-violence). In addition, they plan on expanding, and have voiced their intentions. Also, they have received coverage and awards from large, multinational organizations such as ESPN, and Ernst and Young Entrepreneurs of the Year. I would love to elaborate, but I believe that InnerCity is notable enough to be accepted and its scope is national. Chrisfischer1 (talk) 20:44, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
