Untitled

Clothing for Webkinz pets is purchased in the KinzStyle Outlet, not the W Shop. By the way, Lil'Kinz are way less money than regular Webkinz. Webkinz is a great experience ,it teaches kids how to take care of a virtual pet and get to cuddle with it at night.

Spelling Error

{{editsemiprotected}}

In the very beginning of the article it refers to the Zodiac pets as the Zaniac pets. Please change Zaniac to Zodiac.

"Accounts" section

The "Accounts" section has some information (account deletion after 30 days of expiry) that has been outdated for over one year now. The rest of the article tells the current policy (losing Full Membership after one year, but no account termination after 30 days). This is also confirmed by the fact that citation number 8 has an error when trying to access it (Webkinz World probably took this page out in early 2011 after their policies changed). Can someone get around to fixing it? 75.21.165.36 (talk) 15:12, 3 March 2012 (UTC) They then decided in 2011 that Webkinz accounts will not expire after not been on lately. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.13.68.26 (talk) 01:45, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection

Can anyone please tell me why this article is semi-protected? Interlude65 (talk) 23:34, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

     You put this comment a really long time ago, but I think it's because since Webkinz is a kid's website, they would probably want to often add or change things and might not be old enough to understand what their doing. Daisy134 (talk) 02:24, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism Section is Very Poor

Virtually all the criticism is unsubstantiated or rumor. The section either needs a drastic edit or removal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.22.27.197 (talk) 17:33, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia Hates Me :/

Everytime I make any post or change on Wikipedia, it gets removed instantly, even when it is relevant and factual evidence that has been proven. I even give citations and everything. So why are my contributions to Wikipedia always being removed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.185.28.152 (talk) 02:55, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Are you putting them in protected or semi-protected articles? Those need approval first. If that's not the case then try here: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Help:Contents. Rissa, Guild of Copy Editors (talk) 20:09, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Update information

>"In 2006, Webkinz had one million online accounts, and according to one estimate published in Wired they took in $100 million.[2] In 2011, Webkinz made its first commercial on TV."

This should be updated or else removed. Rissa, Guild of Copy Editors (talk) 20:07, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Activities

Some hourly activities on weekdays take place in the morning, and sometimes rare items in the curio shop are sold in the middle of the night. Daisy134 (talk) 02:22, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Page Layout

This page is filled with content that is potentially irrelevant. This article may benefit from a timeline structure with relevant information classified by year. This could help outdated/older product information be better separated from current offerings.
