== Broken Link ==
== Crap ==
{{tlx|editprotected}}The link to the Teletubbies episode list at EOFFTV has changed and is now at http://www.eofftv.com/eofftv/index.php/Teletubbies_(1997-2001). I don't seem to be able to fix this as the page is semi-protected so could someone with suitable permissions take a look at this? Many thanks!

Crapity crapity crap. crap crap crap.
== Merging of [[Tinky Winky]], [[Dipsy]], [[Laa Laa]], [[Po (Teletubby)]] ==
These articles on each character are so short I don't believe it is worth them having their own article. Most of the articles are also ''missing'' information that is found on the main page, or the stuff on there is just a repeat of what is said here. It would be much more concise and productive to move these articles into this one.

:I've merged in all but Tinky Winky.

:Tinky Winky has now also been merged. The whole controversy thing is already here anyway. -- [[User:Collectonian|<span style='font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; color:#5342F'>Collectonian</span>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Collectonian|talk]]&nbsp;'''·''' [[Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 15:51, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

== Outdoor Set - Afterlife ==
Since filming ended, the fixtures and fittings have been removed from the set, and it appears to have been flooded to form a pond (two fields South of the farmhouse, which is where the postcode points to on the online maps). The paved (gravel?) track leading to the former set still exists, so is the only extant reminder. Until recently, the MS Live Maps view showed the site "in action" - complete with numerous articulated trucks parked at the end of the track. Their image has now been updated as well, but a copy has been preserved at [http://wap.parrette.net/TELETUBBIES_WEB/ttlBehindTheScenes.html this fansite]. A couple of lines explaining the afterlife of the set might be a useful addition to the main article...
Meanwhile (FYI - not necessarily for the main article), the farm have found a new way to supplement their income - an aquatics centre (fish and pondplant sales).

Interestingly, I read a rumour somewhere that the set of "In The Night Garden" might be the woodland two fields west of the old Teletubbies set - however, that would evidently need reliable citations before being plonked in that article.[[User:Mittfh|Mittfh]] ([[User talk:Mittfh|talk]]) 10:51, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

:I don't see how that's really much more than trivia type information unless its heavily covered in reliable, third-party sources - not some fansite. -- [[User:Collectonian|<span style='font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; color:#5342F'>Collectonian</span>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Collectonian|talk]]&nbsp;'''·''' [[Special:Contributions/Collectonian|contribs]]) 13:29, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

== Sun - Jessica Smith ==
Is this verifiable ? My own daughter is called Jessica Smith, and was about the right age at the right time, and looked almost identical to the Sun Baby. My older son, was convinced it was her for many years. I know it wasn't her but so many people commented on the likeness that maybe it's grown into a myth

== "Tubby Tustard" incorrect ==

Should be "Tubby Custard" http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/teletubbies/funandgames/footprints/ <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Lw93aed|Lw93aed]] ([[User talk:Lw93aed|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lw93aed|contribs]]) 12:24, 27 October 2008 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:I think that they deliberately mispronounce some words on the show to make them sound more childish. I havent seen an actual episode of Teletubbies so I cant really speak for that but "tubby tustard" does sound vaguely familiar and gets a few hundred google hits.

==advertising for "pop up shop==

This section: "<blockquote>
A Pop-Up Shop opened in New York City's West Village from 28 March to 7 April 2007.[14] The opening night party was DJ'ed by MisShapes. A percentage of the store's profits went to the Cure Autism Now and Autism Speaks charities. DJs from all different genres of music (electronica, funk, Brazilian jazz, old school hip hop, alternative rock and house music) played in the store in the evenings. Some evenings included DJ scratching lessons and record spin art. On 6 April 2007, the store held a 12-hour Teletubbies viewing marathon."
</blockquote>
Seems to be completely irrelevant bar the last line- I'm editting to this effect.[[User:Himynameishelen|Himynameishelen]] ([[User talk:Himynameishelen|talk]]) 22:20, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

== Homosexual - Well Written but needs more specifics ==

Well done to whoever wrote about the homosexual side of one of the teletubbies. I remember reading many articles about the homosexual teletubbie and even in my psychology university lecture we had a whole assignment on Childrens TV and homosexual characters. Infact the purple coloured icons in Teletubbies, Hoobs etc. are all homosexual in personality who show no preference for the girl character. For our assignment we used many journals and studies as citations which can be used here. For the author of the homosexual section, use JSTOR and other Athens networks for excellent sources that mention teletubbies and childrens tv as a whole in a sexual angle. --[[Special:Contributions/93.97.181.187|93.97.181.187]] ([[User talk:93.97.181.187|talk]]) 20:29, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
