Seriously, why is he so obsessed with kids' shows? Does he watch anything that doesn't air on Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network?

I'll let Gaben explain this. Behold, comments from him which will be memorable quotes in the future with the likes of Walt Disney:

"I'm fighting for equality and recognition of works that are denied their proper official acknowledgement." - Gabriel James Navarro, fighting for justice for kids cartoons since 1994

"The fact that there are (active) wikis dedicated to her (Note: It's Sally Acorn) series is proof in itself that she is notable. Also, Wikipedia is supposed to be all–inclusive."

"Because Wikipedia claims to be the be–all source of fact, and that everything in it, as represented there, is true. The site is guilty of severe Google–bombing; it is on the first page of results for EVERYTHING that's covered on it whatsoever, even the things it doesn't do justice."

"You are all culturally biased. For thinking that Shakespeare and the like are AUTOMATICALLY, inherently more important than anything else. ALL works with significant fan bases are culturally significant. The Fairly OddParents and other cartoons like it have millions of fans, including many who are more obsessed than I."

"Let me clear this up. I have NOTHING against Shakespeare and (most) other classic literature, I for one think that Shakespeare's stories are quite interesting and amusing. What I am against is the notion that they're the greatest and most important stories ever, and that nothing in today's age is allowed to be viewed as better than them. As a culture, our works, for the most part, have continued to get continually better and more refined over time."

"I also believe that "worshipping" these so–called "classics" and forcing them on the new generation is cultural stagnation."

"The reason is that people are biased and know Shakespeare because it's shoved down all of their throats with the implication that it's somehow better than anything we have today. People who think they're "cultured" usually are only familiar with what close–minded people classify as "classics"."

Sorry, my face impacted my keyboard at high speeds just then.

Honestly, given his love for wikis and his obsession with weird fantasy shit, I'm a little surprised Moleman never tried to get into the SCP Foundation. It seems like the kind of thing he'd try to get into...unless he already tried and got laughed out.

Shakespeare forced upon people? I can only guess he didn't like reading Shakespeare in English class. I'm also sure the only Shakespeare most people would know of would be Hamlet and Romeo & Juliet. Even then, people would only know some sort of summary along with what is iconic (To be or not to be & Juliet kissing Romeo then killing herself).
Stay classy moleman, stay classy.

I bet in say 1000 years, a race of aliens will be reading Shakespeare and think it is the greatest thing (Much like how some bronies think MLP:FIM is TEH GREATEST THING EVAR!!11) that they could have conventions, merchandise, and tv shows based on Hamlet, MacBeth, and Winter's Tale. The Fairly Odd Parents would either be an obscure niche or entirely forgotten.

Unless said cartoon is significant, eg Mickey Mouse, they should be put on the page about the work, or if there a lot of characters, a character page. If you want to write about individual pages, go to their respective wiki.

Oh. My. God. Now I enjoy things that are probably out of my age range (wrasslin, certain Nickelodeon sitcoms) but god damn. Even if you don't like Shakespere there is no doubt that it has had a massive influence pop culture (including kids show) and entertainment as a whole. To ignore this is fucking amazing. Shame he pussed out of being here because this is the kind of shit he should answer for.

You know what would actually work? Not edit-warring in Wikipedia, that's for sure. Wikipedia demands reliable third-party sources. How do you get reliable sources? Encourage journalists and academics - that is, people with actual editorial/peer-review processes behind them - to analyse these pieces of pop culture. Yes, the pace is frustratingly slow for some people, and these people often don't focus on the specific little pieces of obscure pop-culture shit, but all of this is absolutely necessary.
TL;DR: The "proper official acknowledgement" doesn't come from Wikipedia. It comes from the press and scientists. Wikipedia articles are just byproducts of that acknowledgement.

Side note: I converted the Film Reel of Cosmos to EPUB so I can read the bugger on tablet. If people are interested I might upload it somewhere. Won't be doing a spork because this bastard is 40k words and approaching novel length, but based on a cursory glance it looks a bit painful. (Also, I should get back to writing the spork on Tiberius Rising, I know...)

Ebin Rap Battles: Prince Hamlet vs Sally Acorn.

Now this was gonna be a story all about how
Your life got flipped, turned upside down,
But instead you’re gonna sit your butt down in this chair,
And ignore how you’re really Denmark’s rightful heir.

( Hamlet: )
In west Denmark I was born and raised,
On the battlefield is where I spent most of my days,
Chilling out with dad times, stabbing all the fools
And all swordfighting Norwegians outside of my school,
When a couple of armies, they were up to no good,
Started repulsing our invasion of their neighbourhood,
Dad died one little time and my mom got scared,
And said, “I’m marrying your dad’s brother, but we weren’t having an affair.”

I'm a guy who enjoys things that are out of my age range as well (cartoons like MLP:FiM, Regular Show, Tom & Jerry, the original Scooby Doo) and I know what you mean. Shakespeare has left an influence among society. His works live on as academic subject and as entertainment. As you said, he had a massive influence in pop culture and entertainment as well. (Seriously, his works basically get thrown into a tv show as say a plot point. Hey Arnold had his Romeo & Juliet play as a main subject where Helga wanted to be Juliet so she could kiss Arnold.) Even if he did come back, he is not gonna listen. He'll say we are wrong for whatever reason, especially since he says we are all cyber-bullies for not agreeing with him.

This just in: There's a wiki about his rap battles. Not founded by Molay himself, but he's the admin though.

Yes. I see this ending extremely well, and not getting trolled at all.
