Ben -- I certainly hope nobody ever called you names on the wiki; I cannot speak for the other admins but I never considered you were a jerk in any way. While the continual use of the sock accounts certainly made us lose patience with you, that is not really the issue here.

The problem with your additions to the page is that you were making them based on an incomplete memory from when you were 6 years old. Muppet Wiki has a policy not to add information from memory. None of us remember things that reliably from back when we watched these shows; even if we first watched them as adults (in the case of some of the recent muppet stuff). So we ask people who contribute to have a video or script or other reliable source of information before editing the pages.

How you added the information was really a secondary issue; if you were adding reliable information we'd help you with the format.

We know you wanted to help fill in information we are missing; but we would rather not have the information than have it based on somebody's childhood memory. That's true for all of us. I know bits and pieces about some episodes that I saw as a kid but I have not added them because it's just memory, and not anything I can verify.
