Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Futurama, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. -- Doniago (talk) 19:53, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
