Userspace limits
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: no more than one edit per day. 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! --電禅Den Zen 20:36, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
- I was aware of this policy. What I wasn't aware of was that previewing an edit before actually saving it fell under this same category. As of today I had decided to make my own userspace page. I had to preview what my changes were going to look like a whole lot because I had no idea how to make a userspace beyond simply typing text. I looked for a how-to page and couldn't find one, so I had to try and do it myself. I offer my apologies if this caused any distress and will try to limit my activity from here out.

Userspace limits
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: no more than three edits per day and make sure you contribute to our mainspace more than your userspace. This policy was instated to prevent promote people helping out in the mainspace, and also to control strain on our server. 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! --Masatoshitalk 20:46, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
I'm confused. I've edited the mainspace a lot more than I edited my userspace today. I added pictures to two articles in need of a photo and made other various contributions throughout the mystery dungeon section of the wiki. I knew you could only make 3 edits per day, but I also thought I read that if you have one mainspace edit for every userspace edit after the first 3 you could edit your userspace more than 3 times. I thought I was following all the rules. What did I do wrong? Frenchhorn 20:54, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
- (Don't forget to indent) I know you have done a lot of mainspace edits today, but the limit is still three userspace edits per day, with at least one edit more in the mainspace. We have no problem with you editing twice in the userpage, as long as you have edited three times in the mainspace, if you edit your userpage for the third time, you should have four mainspace edits, that's the policy right now.

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 Changes button... Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Thanks! --Masatoshitalk 23:51, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
Signature
I noticed recently you did not sign your edit to Kenji-girl's talk page. Please be sure to sign your talk page edits by either typing four tildes ~~~~ or the timestamp button. That way we can identify the user of the post easier. Thank you. サトシ 00:44, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
