Some comments

Hello Lucasmills223, I just wanted to leave a note here for you. First, I will be watching Bubble Guppies and Talk:Bubble Guppies so I should be able to respond to any edit requests fairly quickly. In addition, once you make about 6 more edits, you should become autoconfirmed (which mean that you can edit semi-protected articles). This will allow you to edit Bubble Guppies, but I would like to caution you to only make direct edits in very clear cut cases of spelling/grammar corrections and vandalism reversions. Generally, if you want to add, remove, or change content I would prefer if you use a different method. This is because you have informed me that you have a conflict of interest (please read this page to familiarize yourself with the policy). It is fine to work to improve an article if you have a conflict of interest, but we would prefer if you went through other editors. We have a special template for that {{request edit}} Again, I will be watching the page so it shouldn't take long for you to get an edit through. I know of one very productive editor with a conflict of interest User:King4057. Perhaps you should leave a remark on his talk page asking for some advice. Finally, we have a formal invitation for the teahouse, but since I'm writing this I will just leave a note that I highly suggest that you check out Wikipedia:Teahouse. I believe that asking a question there can get you the best advice on Wikipedia. Ryan Vesey Review me! 21:58, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

And before I forget, you are invited, and encouraged, to edit other unrelated articles without all of this hullabaloo. The encyclopedia can use all of the extra help, so it would be a shame if you stuck only too this article without experiencing the entire project (although I understand if you are busy and are unable to afford that much time to the project).
