Gender issue

Please do not add speculative info in the articles as you did just now by adding Pokémon genders in the multiple articles without any confirmation otherwise the consequences won't be good. Kindly take care of this thing in the future, thank you. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 02:07, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Again, don't add genders without confirmation. Turtwig's A-B-Cs (talk | contribs) 02:26, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
As I said above, kindly stop messing around with gender sections. I noticed that you've changed Master Hamm's Hitmonlee's gender, however it was never even confirmed. Similarly, you changed Noland's Articuno's gender from Unknown to none. Leave the genders as unknown if they are not known instead of putting none. One more gender that you've changed is of Kyle Hamm's Hitmonchan's. All of your edits were not constructive and were false. Please do not add any info in any article which is not confirmed otherwise I'll report an admin about all this, thank you. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 00:49, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

This is my first time using the site. Reporting the admin will not work. The other pages tricked me into believing that most of the genders were true. So the pages with the information should be blamed, not me. Not only that, the discussions with the gender issues kept going on and on. Got it? Just give me a chance and thanks for warning me. Pattyman 00:55, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Firstly, I can't blame the articles because we add genders in the articles if and only if they've been specifically mentioned in the anime. Secondly, I know its your first time but a lot of users have already informed you about all these things, have a close look on your talk page for more details. We never report against any user directly. First, we warn them that they are doing something fishy and then after 3rd or 4th warning, we report the admins about the issue. Anyway, I hope you've got the idea about how this wiki works. Please try to take care of these things in the future and don't add unconfirmed info in the articles. Thank you, have a good day. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫

What is confirmed articles? I have been doing a good job with some of the stuff as in fixing some of the errors as in improper grammar and spelling mistakes. Right? Pattyman 01:23, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Fixing improper grammar and spelling mistakes is a good thing. By confirmed info, I meant the information which is confirmed or which have been mentioned in the anime. I accused you earlier because you added the info like genders which were never even confirmed in the anime. For example: It's not known whether Kyle Hamm's Hitmonchan is a male or a female hitmonchan etc. I hope you got the idea about confirmed info and all that. It's nothing personal, our job is to inform users about the correct way and tell them the right solution if they did something wrong (at least we try to). Fixing trivias and spelling mistakes is a good thing, you can help bulbapedia by improving these things. Keep up the good work :) ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 01:33, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Barry's Heracross

Please leave it as it is. Barry's Heracross is not notable enough for its own article. Thank you. --Psyライダー 16:16, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Pokémon Abilities

I'm sorry, but unless a Pokémon is explicitly mentioned as having activated an ability, we do not list it having activated an ability, even if it's the only possible ability the Pokémon can have as of current. Neither Ash's's nor Paul's's Torterra has been known to activate Overgrow (in fact, one alleged instance on the former back in the Grotle stage was explicitly stated not to be Overgrow), and the last time Tracey's Venonat appeared predated abilities. Please don't go around inserting unproven information, lest you want to risk being temporarily blocked from editing. --Shiningpikablu252 19:14, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Pokémon

Pokémon is always spelled with the accented e. It can be found by typing Alt+0233 or by clicking on it the character palette below the edit window. It should never say "Pokemon," and it should always say "Pokémon." --PAK Man Talk 19:26, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
