I had originally copied and pasted from the Be Cool Scooby Doo version of the ghost of Elias Kingston  as I felt that was the most appropriate reference to use and filled in the detailas as needed.

I also apologize as to the misspelling on McCreaty's name. I had put that down initially as a reference as I had only heard the name spoken and had to temporarily guess on the spelling. I never thought to check the episode page again today as I had pulled it up either yesterday or the day before and much of the information was TBA and I immediately started working on the page when I got up this morning (which was pretty stupid of me in hindsight). I had just pulled the episode up on demand after publishing the intro to check the credits and see how his name was spelled, unfortunately I had to wait and sit through the entire episode as fast forward was disabled, which is why I hadn't gotten any farther on the article. Once I saw the correct spelling I was going to finish the page, but if I was doing these wrong then its probably for the best that I couldn't finish it.

The reason I post the intro first and finish the rest later is because I only know how to use the source editor (ironic considering that that may well be the most difficult way to do it) as that's how I first learned how to edit and create. When I first try to create a page it uses the regular editor, which I'm not sure to make and fill out an infobox on, so I create the title and intro, publish it, then go back in with the source editor and finish the rest up.

As to many of the surnames of the characters, I generally don't know what they are. More often than not,  they don't say the character's surname in the show and only show it in the credits. I usually will put however much of their name that I know and the episode they apeared in (for example Thorn and Dahlia) for the title. This temporarily gives readers a general idea which character I'm referring to. This also alllows me to check the credits or any other source later and then fill out the appropriate information when I get the chance to do so.

I had originally started contributing because much of the information on the new series was blank and I wanted to help. I figured that because the episodes were being aired in rapid succession, many of the editors and contributors would get swamped with work trying to keep up. I wanted to be of some assitance and chip in by at least creating the pages for the monsters and villians (which are my favorite part of the scooby doo franchise, besides the catchy chase scenes of course), and maybe other characters and locations if I got the time. Unfortunately, my inexperiance appears to just be making matters worse.

I apalogize for all the inconveniance I have caused you and will stop if you need me to. Perhaps I should have gotten more experiance or at least permission before I blundered ahead (again, kind of obvious in hindsight and I feel  kind of stupid that I didn't do so earlier). I greatly appreciate the feedback and understanding, and again feel I must apologize for messing everything up. I was only doing things the only way I knew how, but understand that ignorance is not an excuse. I will attempt to do differently in the future and hopefully evolve and learn as an editor and contributor.

Thank you for your time and understanding

With Respect and Dutifully Yours,
