To keep the Talk Page Clean, I will add a talk page segment for each synopsis I have done. Please leave comments in their respective talk sections.

Comments on Here Comes the Squirtle Squad

Capitalize move names properly. ThunderShock, not Thundershock or thundershock, though they redirect correctly. Also, make sure not to confuse their/they're/there, and don't give Pokémon definitive genders unless there's no doubt of it. For example, yes, I also think Ash's Squirtle and Pikachu are male, but you never know... Meowth, however, is undoubtedly a male. TTEchidna 07:10, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

• That's an old habit of mind, and it's hard to break. I know Pokémon weren't even considered with genders back then, but I usually end up basing my gender calls on how their voices sound. Right or wrong, I just call them like I see them. Also, I don't add links to anything in my synopsies, so any links added are not mine. Oh, and "Thundershock" is actually the way it's spelled in the games.

About you crediting.

I know you are trying to be helpful by crediting yourself, but what's the point? A lot like Wikipedia, Bulbapedia isn't credited by a one person, it's credited by many. Anyone could edit at any time (if they have account here) to fix stuff here and there. So if we all signed our names, it would be easy to see a long list, but hard to read the important text, if you see what I mean. TheBlazikenMaster 13:52, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

• Yeah, I see what you mean. I guess it's mostly because I want to leave an easy mark on each page so people can comment on the synopsies I write. It's also so people can see any other synopsies I've done. I try to keep the credit small and unobtrusive, but if it's a problem, I can take them off.
  • That's unnecessery, you could just use the episode talk page if someone wants to comment on them. If you want someone to talk to you directly you can just tell them that, your credit is unneeded. TheBlazikenMaster 14:49, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
    • I'll leave well enough alone with the ones I've already done, but I won't add that "Synopsis by" tagline to any further synopsies I do. I do hope to continue doing them to contribute to the Pokémon Anime Project, though.

Synopses

Listen, as much as everyone appreciates you making the synopses, I have many complaints. Firstly, don't credit yourself, you're not supposed to. Secondly, refer to all Pokémon as 'it', unless explicitly stated otherwise on their articles. This means that Pikachu is an it, as is Bayleef. Thirdly, link to moves, Pokémon, and humans when writing. シンジ_ShinjiLover,Edits 09:12, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
