Request

Can someone come up with a way to fix this statement? Certainly they will not feature religious content, and certainly the block will be designed to educate all viewers.....but the statement is somewhat misleading, as the original religious Veggietales, etc. were also designed to educate all viewers.

Also, VeggieTales, 3-2-1 Penguins! and LarryBoy Adventures will not feature religious content, since the block is designed to educate all viewers.

How to pronounce Qubo

Qubo is pronounced "cube-oh", not "kwoob-oh". Don-Don 23:10, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Cube-oh?!? both you and Wikipedia are wrong, it's pronounced "Qyou-bow".

auspicious/suspicious

I changed an edit of suspicious back to the original auspicious, in the Viewership section. The use of auspicious was used to summarize an earlier edit. If there is some reason to believe the the viewership information is incorrect or falsified in some way, please give some citation. Bear475 19:22, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

VeggieTales and religious content

The November 25, 2006 episode of VeggieTales that aired on on qubo certainly did include religious content... two characters, at different points in the show, sang about God answering prayer and being thankful to God for what they had. This is in contradiction to the statement which currently reads, "Also, VeggieTales will not feature religious content [...]". Of course, this is original research on my behalf, and thus not appropriate for inclusion in the article itself, but I do believe that statement is factually inaccurate. --Psiphiorg 12:55, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Lowercase initial letter

How did you get the initial letter to be lowercase? Articles like eBay and iPod say technical restrictions don't allow you to do that! But strange, on the talk page, it's still lowercase... Matty-chan 02:05, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

I guess people are working on the lowercase template. See Template talk:Lowercase.

Digital schedule

How is qubo going to manage a 24-hour network with only six shows? --68.190.161.17 17:03, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Oh, wait. Looking at the ad again, I guess the digital network will have more shows. --Libertyernie2 17:30, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

The qubo digital network will launch with 8 series in addition to the six programs already on the broadcast blocks. --IslandDreamer

Nick GAS has six shows....>_<-TheVofSteel

Well said. :P --Libertyernie2 20:45, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

qubo is a recent up and coming network, whereas Nick GAS has been around for some time. qubo's situation is totally different from Nick GAS's. Brittany Ka 19:17, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Satellite availability

Since someone added that Dish Network offers qubo from 6am-6pm on channel 217, it should also be noted that DirecTV offers qubo from 6am-6pm on channel 347. Add that to the satellite channels whenever you can. Dish Network and DirecTV both carry the Ion West satellite feed (217 Dish Network; 347 DirecTV), which provides qubo programming 12 hours daily. —Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]])

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Not only would you need a reliable source for each and every one of those additions, you would need to justify why including speculative information about the future should be here. See WP:CRYSTAL--we generally don't print info about the future unless its very certain, and is notable. Qwyrxian (talk) 01:43, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Slogan

On qubo channel the slogan seems to be "where the good fun begins," so is "qubo's for everyone" correct? Where did that come from? 65.173.177.183 (talk) 23:36, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

"qubo's for everyone" was their slogan from 2007-fall 2010, you're correct they did change their slogan to "where the good fun begins" in fall 2010. I'll update the slogan in the article right now. Powergate92Talk 23:49, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Another show that has aired on Qubo

Not sure of the exact dates but Jacob Two-Two was on Qubo early on. Here is an article speaking of the launch:

New shows

Why are people adding Timeblazers and Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego? to the programs part? Those shows aren't airing on qubo.— Preceding unsigned comment added by FromtheWordsofBR (talk • contribs) 15:06, February 17, 2012 (UTC)

Timeblazers and Dex Hamilton: Alien Entomologist will start airing on qubo this Saturday, and Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego? will be "Coming Soon". See the qubo website (http://www.qubo.com/index.php) for info. Powergate92Talk 03:21, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Still, Timeblazers and Carmen Sandiego air on The Hub, so it's wrong to have two networks airing a show at the same time. OK, somebody's posting fake stuff on here. You see, Guess with Jess, Artzooka! and Harry and His Bucket of Dinosaurs (which is supposed to air on Disney Junior) are NOT, I repeat, NOT airing on qubo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FromtheWordsofBR (talk • contribs) 01:26 (UTC)

Guess with Jess, Artzooka, and Harry and His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs will be "Coming Soon To qubo" per official qubo Facebook page linked on qubo's website.[1] Powergate92Talk 03:13, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

But Disney Junior is airing it, aren't they gonna? ~~FTWOBR~~

Duplicate list (remove/merge)

Shouldn't the list of Qubo programming be removed/merged from this article with the exception of the link to the main article: List of programs broadcast by Qubo per MOS:LIST? All updates on programming should be made there. Msw1002 (talk) 15:25, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

clean up reversals

Not sure why you, user:FilmandTVFan28, have reversed my starting clean up of this article. linkedin.com, nbcumv.com and qubo.com are not vary acceptable source for WP for being unreliable and/or a primary/direct source. Classic Media/DreamWorks Classic only was a JV member under Classic Media. If Ion is the only owner and it is current then the past ownership should be discussed in history. Spshu (talk) 00:03, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

Your edit was wrong. 4Kids Entertainment had nothing to do with Qubo. You also removed information about the origin of the block. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 00:17, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

What are you talking about? I removed 4Kids (hence the minus sign next to 4Kids "-4Kids" in the edit summary). I did not remove information about the origins of the block. As I point out above that is covered in the history section. Spshu (talk) 14:53, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

How about the Classic Media issue. It should be the name under which they owned their portion of the JV, in this case Qubo, so it should be listed as Classic Media. Spshu (talk) 14:56, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

So, I missed removing the 4Kids category. Don't reverse my whole edit over the category. Spshu (talk) 20:15, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

That's what I was trying to say. - FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 20:41, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

←No, you accused me of adding it to begin, when I clearly removed it from the article text. By your blind reversal + removing the category was forcing me in a position of adding it back. As all that was list as edit summary was "Undid revision". So no you didn't say that. Spshu (talk) 20:51, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

Here you go 205.215.222.131 added it don't blindly revert then add another edit. Then blame me for what that editor and you did. Spshu (talk) 20:56, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

Shouldn't Qubo be referred to in past tense now? The channel is officially off the air, the website has gone down and the Twitter account has confirmed that Qubo has ended all broadcasting. curcle. (talk) 13:58, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Please add the following sentence, as well as the references contained within it, after "Following Ion Media's acquisition by the E. W. Scripps Company, the Qubo network left the air on February 28, 2021.":

However, Ion Media still retains ownership of the Qubo logo & wordmark through its subsidiary, Qubo Venture, LLC. 2600:1700:C960:2270:65E5:54B4:9901:3DC2 (talk) 02:37, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

References

 Not done: is there anything published in a reliable source about this? I would be wary going off primary source legal documents (like trademark stuff) for material in Wikipedia articles, both due to the interpretation that is required, but largely due to the fact that we rely on reliable sources to tell us what the noteworthy and important information about a subject is, which I'm not sure this is. ‑‑Volteer1 (talk) 02:28, 21 June 2021 (UTC)

Creepypasta sign off

Should we mention the fake sign off from a YouTube account named Splatkid208 productions? It’s disturbing and most of the internet was fooled into thinking it was real. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.21.233.130 (talk) 14:34, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

Nope. Not true, or ever commented on anyone with Ion or Scripps. Nate • (chatter) 20:32, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

We know it’s not true, but the video has some notoriety online. Perhaps we should acknowledge the video, for too many gullible people believe it to be legitimate. Mr Shooter42 (talk) 01:48, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Again, no, this is a thing of interest to a very, very, very small pool of people which doesn't have reliable sources and will never receive comment from the network or any other RS. Nate • (chatter) 04:23, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
