Most of them are good, but I had to reject two for different reasons

1. You made an edit which removed a valid trope link and left stray trope markup, so I had to reject it for formatting reasons.
2. The second was the edit on Older than Television, this was mostly due to concerns of an attempt at censorship. While it is true television in it's crudest forms existed since 1920s, it DID exist in Nazi Germany in the 1930s, as there were demonstrations of the German patent version for the early electronic models in the mid to late 1930s. There were even earlier prototypes dating back to the 1850s, but you were correct to fix the date of the technology as most would understand it in it's modern form to the 1920s. I understand the Nazis are a touchy subject, but under their government certain advances in electronic television design were made and demonstrated, including at the 1936 Olympic Games. As to the second edit, please do not censor true information, even if it pertains to something developed by an inventor in Germany under the Nazi regime.

You've done well so far for a starting editor otherwise, but we do check to make sure information is accurate before posting, and information you remove should come with a clear reason why on objective grounds, such as being factually wrong, with a citation of a source if need be to eliminate doubt.

I don't mind about Nazis, but I won't censor it, They're prototypes of TV dating back in the early and mid 19th century, I removed a valid trope link because, whenever B-movies is posted on the internet, it doesn't make a web original per se, but a upload of the movie.

Okay, fair enough, thank you for clarifying. We recently had to eject someone trying to be a pro-Nazi shill, so please forgive our caution, we did not wish a repeat. And you are correct, the earliest prototype of television technology dates back to the 1850s.

That said, I must ask you be sure all edits are properly formatted, including all words and links have proper capitalization and spelling. We place a high premium on edits being human readable and not having to clean up behind other editors. I apologize if this seems severe, but this our manual of style. That aside, you've made some fine edits otherwise, and we look forward to more.

To be fair, our manual of style can be found here.

Okay, I'll do that.

To say the least, the prototype TVs are mechanical, So mechanical television broadcasting did exist around the world before the invention of electronic TVs in the 30s, Crusader Rabbit is not the first animated television series, the thought of animated TV programming came into the early-to-mid 1930s, a predecessor of it were still artworks made for television in mechanical TV broadcasting, I might be wrong on this, but this is probably true, since film wasn't around in the early and mid 19th century, animation was there, The thought of animation on prototype mechanical TVs possibly came into the norm. I'm very smart to know about the history of television and I'm not afraid to ask.

Point duly noted. Mechanical television does predate the electronic version around the dates you mentioned, can confirm that.

Glad you did, Thank you. I will say that radio was invented in the 1890s. so, radio was popular back then, Radio today isn't underrated, but television is more overrated than radio nowadays since nobody makes radio programs like they use to, before the radio's content was moved to television, Since television was intensely popular in the '40s that 100% of content from radio was moved to television such as Sitcoms, Soap operas, Dramas, Serials, News programs, etc. Everybody like to pitch a TV series rather than radio. That's the reason why that newsreels stopped showing from theaters in the 1960s in the United States because of the popularity of news programs on television, Movie theaters had tried various gimmicks on films despite the popularity of television, they did such gimmicks such as CinemaScope, 3D, Smell-O-Vision, etc. Animated short films were stopped showing on theaters because of animated television programs occurring, in the 1970s, trailers of films started occur on television, the 1990s saw that internet videos started to be popular along television, and users started uploading clips from various TV programs on the internet for download. TV tuners seemed to all the rage on computers especially throughout the '90s. In the 2010s and now, Streaming is popular on television, that it made original streaming television programming on various streaming services, Even though that TV emerged in the '40s, does not mean that TV wasn't broadcast in the US and UK in 1936 and 1939, It started as mechanical television broadcasts in the early 20th century.

You've established your bona fides, please carry on, just please leave edit reasons to avoid any misunderstandings.

Also, here's another fact, Since animated short film series long predates animated TV series, I'll say that Crusader Rabbit was long thought to be the first animated television series until people researched that the first animated TV series aired in the 1930s. this makes Crusader Rabbit, one of the earliest animated television series made. now the first animated television series despite being made in the '30s was lost due to wiping, no existing copies of the program ever made. a lot of early animated television series made in the early 1940s were lost due to wiping as well, since they're no existing copies of the early animated TV series. Crusader Rabbit seems to the most surviving animated television series despite being aired in 1949. A lot of foreign animated TV series especially the pre-1980s ones were lost or partially found due to wiping, but I know that post-1980s animated TV series are lost or partially found as well, but animated TV series today are found and are fully archived as of now. NOTE: First images shown on television despite showing an animated character was Felix the Cat in 1928 The first animated film made for television was Willie the Worm in 1936. The first animated commercial was broadcast on 1941.

Fascinating, please add this to our pages on the topic.

Thanks, I'll add it to your pages very soon.
