Linking to categories

You can link to Categories without putting the page into the category by putting a colon before "Category". Example: [[:Category:______]] And just so it's up there, you can also link to files by using [[:a:File:____.___]] ^★Jo the Marten^★ ಠ_ಠ♥ 02:53, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I should have know that before I linked it, but did not. I will admit that I did find it on Wikicode#Linking, but at that time I had already made my second edit in a row. (I follow a rule of two so that I do not get an edit warning, unless an edit has somehow badly broken something.) In any case, thank you for letting me know about that since it will help me to remember in the future. (Off topic) Sorry if I am butting into your talk with Mikoro. I wanted to let them know that they can find articles that need to be improved instead of complaining about the loss of userspace privileges since I think that they can improve. One other thing I wanted to ask you was why is Mikoro's timestamp off by a few hours? It is listed as UTC time, but is EST instead. Could you look into it? In any case, thank you for reading this. --Super goku (talk) 03:58, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Statement

Super goku, I have looked at the list you sent me on my talk page and I have fixed Exploud and Clear!'s synopsis. For future edits I make, I will notify you. Are you an administrator? Do you have rights to reinstate someone's userspace rights? Mikoro 9:49, 23 October 12 (UTC)

Hello, Mikoro. I would like to say that you do not need to notify me of any changes that you make since if I wanted to look I could just use Special:Contributions/Mikoro. If you would like to you can do it to me or anyone else on the wiki by placing the name of the user in the url. In addition, the recent changes page will list a link to it it between the link to the user's talk page and the edit summary of a user who makes an edit.* As for the second question, I will say that I am not an administrator or any position on the staff. If you would like to find out who is on staff, then I would suggest you head to the Staff page. Several pages on the Navigation bar to the left include a link to the staff page if you would like to find it later. To be a bit informal, I would like to point out that the only page I have on the Userspace is a personal sandbox. Otherwise, I have nothing in the userspace which is why the username in my signature is red. In my opinion, the only purpose for the userspace is for people to post some infomation on themselves and to improve articles. However, that is not the only use and other users will have differing opinions as to the Userspace. So then, let me ask you a question or two that you can choose to answer or not. What is it that you want to create on the Userspace and why do you want to do so? I am a curious person and would like to understand your reasons. --Super goku (talk) 00:47, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

I want to create my userpage plus a ton of other pages that will be linked on my userpage. I want to do this because I have just experienced all the other awesome pages that people have, and I want one. But because someone had to block my creating rights, I will not be able to do so until I prove myself "worthy of being a professional Bulbapedia contributor". And did you look at the new synopsis for Exploud and Clear!? Mikoro 9:00, 24 October 12 (UTC)

To start with I have seen the synopsis for AG066. I will say that it did look nice. Besides the two edits I would say that the only issues were minor such as links and a bit of grammar. (Note: You can edit the whole article by clicking on the edit button at the top of a page.) As for your userspace issue I would like you direct you to both the Bulbapedia {{bp|Policy} and especially the Userspace policy since those are the most important for your situtation. I would suggest reading those and editing the mainspace more than the talkspace. If you would like to I would suggest maybe looking at this page since most of the pages list there have an incomplete synopsis. Hopefully, this will help you out. --Super goku (talk) 19:04, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Flinching Debocle

Hey. I'm not really sure how editting the coloumns works, but at the moment there is false information up there regarding Gen V. I know you wanted to hold off removing it completely because a portion of it also had to do with Gen 4, which there is no research on. Could you at least remove all mention of Gen V regarding the 1 - (1-p) * 0.1 thing from that page. So that readers aren't misconstrued into believing something that isn't true. - unsigned comment from V4Victini (talk • contribs)

Oh, I understand now. I have edited the page to go along with Generation V and the previous Generations. Granted, it might end up reverted by another user. Thank you for the message.  :) --Super goku (talk) 22:01, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Empoleon

The difference between Barry's Empoleon and Red's Pikachu is that Red has a Pikachu regardless of all things. Barry only has an Empoleon if you chose Chimchar. ^★Jo the Marten^★ ಠ_ಠ♥ 02:03, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Ah, I see. That is a very good point. Mostly, I was reverting the edit since that section seemed to be acceptable because it wasn't removed for several months and there have been similar sections on other pages. Thank you for the message.  :) --Super goku (talk) 02:23, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Pokémon Island

Look at what I've changed. Not only have I removed the now redundant roundy code, I have removed a useless colspan="1" and readded the "| colspan="7" style="background:#E62829; border-bottom-left-radius: 10px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 10px; -webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 10px; -khtml-border-bottom-left-radius: 10px; -icab-border-bottom-left-radius: 10px; -o-border-bottom-left-radius: 10px; border-bottom-right-radius: 10px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 10px; -webkit-border-bottom-right-radius: 10px; -khtml-border-bottom-right-radius: 10px; -icab-border-bottom-right-radius: 10px; -o-border-bottom-right-radius: 10px;" |" at the bottom because it was broken. Please try and fix these too. --Abcboy (talk) 05:15, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

I think I was planning on mentioning how the tables seem different on one of the edit summaries, but I ended up having to do something else offline and never mentioned it. If any tables are left I will see if I can get them. In any case, thank you for sending me the message.  :) --Super goku (talk) 06:22, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

I looked over your edits a bit and I noticed at least one thing that I feel should be different. At the bottom you have the code call for a new row to contain the roundy bottom line among other things. ( |- | colspan="7" style="background:#{{Fire color}}; {{roundybottom}}" | |} ) That extra row causes an line to be drawn with nothing in it between the border of the table and the other rows. To clarify, please look at this to see my modifications and compare them to yours. In addition, I did edit a few of the roundy tags to reduce the white space between the border of the table and the content. --Super goku (talk) 07:19, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

That code's only job is to draw a blank line. If you remove the coding "|- | colspan="7" style="background:#{{Fire color}}; {{roundybottom}}" | |}" then I wouldn't worry about it. But instead, you left it as row formatting with no cells. Entirely removing it would have been the best option. --Abcboy (talk) 12:47, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

Well, I cannot remove the "|}" since that is where the table cuts off at.  :) Joking aside, why would the table need to draw that blank line. There is none above the contents of the table and it makes rounding the bottom of the contents a bit pointless, in my opinion. --Super goku (talk) 21:19, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

What I'm saying is that the coding was left behind, while the cell start was removed. It's sort of like making a blank table. Seemingly, you've fixed all of them already. --Abcboy (talk) 21:56, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

Oh, I think I understand now. Sorry about that. ^.^' I think that the only thing left to do is to look over a few of the tables like the Pokémon Island Cave since a few seem to have issues in the columns. I might look at that in the next few days, but I thought that I would mention it to you right now. --Super goku (talk) 22:00, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

Event table incomplete template

Please stop adding the incomplete template to the Pokémon pages, because of the broken event tables. They are being fixed slowly, but there is hundreds that need fixed since the template was updated causing them to break. Lady Ariel 22:40, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Oh, I see. The reason I was tagging them was so that someone with enough time and knowledge could fix them with ease. I had known that the template had been updated, but I felt that those Pokémon were important enough to be tag due to being actively included in the Event Pokémon template. Sorry for any issues that were caused by my edits. --Super goku (talk) 22:50, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

S vs Z shape

I seemed to hit the character limit for my edit summary on Route 204 and felt it might be a bit confusing. An S shape is something that has two distinct reversals of direction; that is, whatever it is will travel in a direction, then come to a point where it turns to go in the opposite direction, then turns again to continue on in the original direction. A Z shape is something that turns away from its direction, then returns to its original direction but doesn't go in the complete opposite direction in the process. Glik (talk) 19:37, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

I would like to note that the reason I made that change is because File:Sinnoh Route 204 Pt.png shows a path that is not shaped like an S, but more like a Z. Would it be alright with you if I called is a backward or flipped S shaped path? --Super goku (talk) 20:12, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
