As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:
| style="vertical-align:top;color:#000;" |
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].
<div style="float:right;background:#FFF;border:1px solid #FFF;padding:8px;{{roundy|110px}}">[[File:Bulbapedia bulb.png|110px|center]]</div>
*The {{bp|manual of style}} is very important. Make sure to read it. It outlines all official policies of Bulbapedia.
Thank you for joining our community! By creating an account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. This is a brief introduction to Bulbapedia's rules and resources to help you get started:
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
* All users are expected to follow the '''{{bp|code of conduct}}''' and to be kind to one another.
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
* If you have a question, check out our '''{{bp|FAQ}}'''; the '''{{bp|manual of style}}''' provides detailed editing guidance, and the '''{{bp|wikicode|wikicode page}}''' provides details about how to use wikicode. You can always ask for help by contacting a '''{{bp|staff}}''' member.
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
* Please <!--'''{{redlink|Help:Previewing edits|preview}}'''-->preview your edits before saving them; this helps you double-check your changes and reduces the need for repeated minor edits.
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
* Use '''{{bp|Talk page policy|talk pages}}''' to discuss changes and resolve editing disputes.
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
* Creating a userpage is allowed after you've added to the encyclopedia; for more details, see the '''{{bp|userspace policy}}'''.
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.
* '''{{bp|Signature policy|Sign}}''' all talk page posts with four tildes (~~<nowiki/>~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.
* For more handy links and information, check out the '''{{bp|welcome|welcome portal}}'''.
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.
|-
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).
|
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.
|-
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:{{<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>PAGENAME}}/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
| style="{{roundybottom|5px}}background:#c4e673;border:1px solid #c4e673;padding-left:20px;" |  
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
