User talk:RedHailfire

Welcome to Bulbapedia, RedHailfire!

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules: Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct. Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around. Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page. Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style. You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy. Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page. If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite. Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment. For more handy links, see the welcome portal.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here!   --Celadonkey 16:26, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Linking to pages

Please, when linking to a Pokemon's article, that you use link templates. For example, use {{p|Staraptor}} instead of [[Staraptor]]. Ataro (talk) 22:39, 28 February 2017 (UTC)

In anticipation of a question about this, I'll go ahead and link you to Category:Link templates. --Felthry (talk) 22:41, 28 February 2017 (UTC)

Excessive Linking

Please don't link every instance of a word or Pokémon. As a general rule of thumb, if it has already been linked once in a section; it doesn't not need to be linked again. Thank you.--ForceFire 15:32, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

Edit warring

I'm gonna leave this here instead of adding it to our current discussion.

Please be aware that continually redoing an edit of yours that is undone is called edit warring and can result in a block. If there's a conflict, discussion is the proper solution.

Additionally, if a staff member tells you something, it's generally advisable to follow their directions. You can discuss it and appeal it up the staff ranks if you feel you need to eventually, but just ignoring directions is not appreciated. If you didn't realize I'm part of the staff, then I'll inform you now that the Poke Ball icon by my name (or any user's name) indicates this. One way or another you should at least have seen this when you went to undo my edits, so in the future, please keep this in mind.

Thanks. Tiddlywinks (talk) 22:54, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
