User talk:SirFinkleBottom

Welcome to Bulbapedia, SirFinkleBottom!

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!   リックEO (My message board) 18:42, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

Welcoming users

Hey there! It's nice of you to welcome new users to this site, but we don't do it unless there is at least one contribution from each new user. It saves space on the servers. Thanks for your understanding. --リックEO (My message board) 07:10, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Alright and thanks for the information. --SirFinkleBottom 14:58, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

The Preview Button

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --Tiddlywinks (talk) 17:42, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Generations

I ask that you leave the edits for Generations until we are closer to the release date. Additionally, reprints of cards always redirect to their older prints. ^Maverick_Nate 02:15, 13 February 2016 (UTC)

1)We typically do not link to images before they are created. It causes issues with them appearing later when they actually exist.

2)I have no idea what cards you are looking at, but release information has always been a section below card text. ^Maverick_Nate 20:46, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

Sorry overlooked the "Card Text" in the example you gave me. Have you uploaded the images I sent you? SirFinkleBottom 20:48, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

I'm working on downloading them now. I'll take care of the improvements from here, since there are a number of things I'd like to add myself with the Generations cards. ^Maverick_Nate 20:51, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

Copying from other websites.

It is against the rules here to copy translations from other websites, including PokéBeach (especially since PokéBeach isn't particularly good or consistent with translations). That sort of thing is called plagiarism, and is strictly forbidden. Since you've been doing to your best to be helpful, it'll get a slide this time, but please remember that pages created for Japanese cards must be made using your own translations. If you aren't able to read Japanese, it is best to leave the Japanese card pages for someone else. ^Maverick_Nate 14:52, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

Very, very sorry. I didn't know guess I can't make these pages then :( SirFinkleBottom 14:57, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
