I struck at the challenge task #3 for several days as it said Oops! It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing.
full_name = "Wiphop Fong"
name_list = ["Wiphop","Fong"]
greeting_list = ["Hi,","I'm","Treehouse"]
name_list.insert(0,"Treehouse")

name_list = full_name.split()
I went through the challenge, and got it to work using the above method. You have some other errors as well, though. Here's my complete code after the three challenges:
full_name = "Wiphop Fong"
name_list = full_name.split()
greeting_list = "Hi, I'm Treehouse".split()
greeting_list[2] = name_list[0]

5,256 Points@Greg, Thank you ! When I try using your suggested function, I still ended up getting the same "Oops! It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing. on my third challenge!" at the challenge task #3. Do you know how I could solve this?
