I noticed you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot recently. Please don't do it any more, though.

Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so help us out by contributing to some articles before coming back to your personal userpage.

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Burgundy!

Here are a few links to help you get started:

The Manual of Style, or MoS, outlines the format of all pages on Bulbapedia.

Our friendly team of staff are here to help! Talk to them if you have any questions or problems with Bulbapedia.

On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~), or by using the "Your signature with a timestamp" (button_sig.png) button at the top of the edit window.

On Bulbapedia, the ability to edit personal userpages is a privilege. Per our userpage policy, this must be earned by first making constructive edits to the mainspace. Once you can, remember to keep userspace edits (edits to User:Burgundy) to a minimum.

For a complete list of policies and editing advice, please see the Welcome Portal.
 Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

so what all do i have to do before i can make my userpage?--Burgundy 04:31, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Make a certain number of edits to the mainspace (any page without a prefix such as Talk:, User talk:, etc) and wait a certain amount of time. The Editorial Board are keeping the exact time and number of edits secret to prevent users doing the bare minimum for editing their userpage and then just spamming that.

thank you, and btw, am i allowed to know that certain number? :P --Burgundy 04:39, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
I don't know the number, just that there is one. They aren't telling anyone at all, so I suspect not. Werdnae (talk) 04:42, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
K, thanks again. I'll just continue making edits where I see fit.--Burgundy 04:44, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Hi

I noticed you have been editing the User: namespace a lot recently. Please don't do it any more, though. Bulbapedia's Userspace policy restricts the amount you can edit your userpage. This policy was instated to prevent strain on our server, and also to promote people helping out in the mainspace. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so help us out by contributing to some articles before coming back to your personal userpage. The more often you edit in the mainspace, the more you will be allowed to edit your userpage. Thanks! --—darklordtrom 07:49, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Oh, sorry. I guess I got a little bit carried away. I'll go back to editing the mainspace.--Burgundy 07:54, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
