Congrats Bulbapedia

http://www.quantcast.com/bulbapedia.com

Congrats on all of the hits. I'm only confused on the gender demographic.GJ 01:35, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

You do realize that's an Advertisement right? --Force Fire 01:19, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
I don't know whether Quantcast screwed up, or whether they're actually referring to a separate site. See, http://www.bulbapedia.com isn't affiliated with Bulbagarden or this wiki, to my knowledge. We're a different web address. So, either Quantcast's research does reflect our site and they just assumed our suffix was .com, or those stats actually have nothing to do with this wiki. --ニョロトノ666 01:40, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Actually, bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net is listed in the "similar audience" column to the right. I guess people go to bulbapedia.com when they hear about the site but not the URL. Anyway, we're doing even better than bulbapedia.com. --Martonimos((Talk)) 01:54, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
wow, i didnt know that many of you guys were asain... -- MAGNEDETH 03:09, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
I wonder, can Quantcast tell the difference between Asians and wannabe-Asians? A good number of users here use Japanese or Japanese-inspired names... my name's Japanese-inspired, and I'm born in NYC. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 03:16, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
I'm vietnamese, that's asian, but I was born in LA, the state~Pokemaniac102 03:20, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the correct info. There is still more girls though. I thought girls didn't exist on the Internet. - unsigned comment from GJPal (talkcontribs)
they dont. its just lots of boys using their mothers computer. -- MAGNEDETH 04:40, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Or as World of Warcraft has shown us, its just guys pretending they are girls....[[User:Oak-leaf Knight]] 04:42, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Does that mean Tina? PachirisuLover12? Pie? Zhen Lin? no, he is a boy~Pokemaniac102 04:43, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
they could be. we dont know. thats the magic of the internet. -- MAGNEDETH 04:46, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

You said it, not me...[[User:Oak-leaf Knight]] 04:45, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Begs the question on why guys would want to act as girls.
...On second thougts, don't answer that. Glinn Mgraw 05:27, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Errrr, I don't know. They want to be gay? It's the Θρtιmαtum♏Talk|Links09:30 4 Jun 2008
I'm a G.i.r.l. too! (Guy In Real Life) -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 10:21, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Who Misspelled Categorized and Categorizing?

Fix the spelling. - unsigned comment from AaronV28 (talkcontribs)

Typical human response. It's American English, not British. It's the Θρtιmαtum♏Talk|Links07:24 2 Jun 2008
American English would have the "z" in catergorizing. Since we use American English, it should be changed. MoldyOrange 12:13, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
It has been stated not to change from one to the other for the sheer sake of it. Either can be used, but American English is preferred. Glinn Mgraw 12:33, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Wait, where is it misspelled anyway? TTEchidna 22:53, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
I changed it. It should be the last one in the history. That's why Glinn yelled abut changing it. MoldyOrange 22:59, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Collapsible Navboxes

can bulbapedia do collapsible boxes, and if so, how? OrigamiGuy-Talk-Contribs-Mudkipz 21:14, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

We can, yes, we just haven't yet because we're against pretty much just jacking everyone's code. We likely will soon enough. TTEchidna 22:51, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
But wikipedia and bulbapedia both run on mediawiki, so everything that works on one will work on the other, so why the big 'stealing other wikis code is not nice' thing? OrigamiGuy-Talk-Contribs-Mudkipz 23:02, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Anime pics

How do you get pictures of the anime episodes? If I try to play one on my computer and press "Print Scrn", the window where the video was is black. Is there any way around this? --Shiny Noctowl 23:04, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
