User talk:Swampert rox/Archive 1

If I have edited my userspace after you post, please don't post again immediately because I have been having problems where I save the edit, and edit again a few minutes later but don't get the message until after the second edit.

In case you have a question, I mostly know stuff about the games.

Pokémon names

Whenever you are talking about more than one of the same species of Pokémon, do not put an "s" on the end. All are just the name. ^Maverick_Nate 23:24, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

AG114

Don't copy synopses from other sites, such as from here. They have copyrighted it and, in any other case, copying from other sites is not good in any situation. If you want to put a synopsis there, make your own. Thanks! |>|-|1|23 •57R1K3 23:39, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Also, don't put a link to the synopsis either. It looked bad on the page and an original synopsis is much better. It is not hard to write an original one. Check out the ones I've written, listed on my userpage as an example. --rockersk08 00:45, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

When creating new pages...

1. Categorize/stub them.

2. Use proper grammar/spelling to the best of your ability.

3. See if the page is notable enough and not already created. You can add to another page if it's similar, but not on that page.

That's it. ^ht14 01:52, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Linking to games

Writing DPPt is bad. Using link templates is good. Read them. Learn them. Use them. Link to the actual articles instead of using ugly redirect pages. — THE TROM — 02:54, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Multiple edits

Please, preview before saving. We don't like having Recent Changes cluttered with one person repeatedly editing one page. --Galladeon 22:38, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Your Project

All project proposal must go first to the higher-ups or to our EIC, TTE. You don't just create it and then becomes the Project Leader. It follows certain process, sorry. Thanks, Kevzo8 15:10, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi

I noticed you have been editing the User: namespace a lot recently. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a Userspace policy that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Instead of making multiple edits, why not use the Preview button (Alt + Shift + P) located right next to the edit button to look at your page and see how it is coming? That way, your page can look great while staying within the required amount of edits. Instead of editing the userspace, as a wiki, we encourage users to edit the mainspace. So, if you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit the userspace more. Thanks! --^Psychic_Rider^☮ 22:12, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Hold on!

If you did not read your last warning, then please read it now. You have edited the User: namespace too much for now. Please do not edit your page any more for now. Thank you. --^Psychic_Rider^☮ 23:56, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Making new pages

That. Was. A. Total. Fail. Not only did you not categorize it, but you got the project tag wrong too. On top of that, it would be nice if we could have some content in the article. Coz, you know, it's an encyclopedia and all. — THE TROM — 01:09, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Stop.

Do not edit the User: namespace any more. In the past, we were not allowed to edit our pages at all because of users over-editing their pages. If you edit your page any more without making some edits to the mainspace, then the privilege for you to edit the userspace will be removed. --The Dark Fiddler - You enter a poorly lit room... 11:50, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Last warning. Edit against today, and I will report you to a sysop. The Dark Fiddler - You enter a poorly lit room... 11:55, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Categorization

We're serious when we say that all new encyclopedic pages must be categorized. It's Bulbapedia policy that states all pages in encyclopedic namespaces must be categorized, with the one and only exception of the Main Page. Make sure that, next time you create a new page in an encyclopedic namespace, that you categorize it. --Shiningpikablu252 15:45, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Stop!

Seriously, stop editing your userpage. Read the warnings above. The rule does not apply in only a day. You made six userspace edits in a very short period of time this day, and more or less 20 userspace edits in the past two days. Please, listen to us. Kevzo8 12:19, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

About some of your usertags...

I made those tags as in-jokes between my friends and me. Make your own please. I made certain meme tags for certain users, one for CoolPikachu!, one for Darkeiya, and on your page under your meme section, you modified my tags for Kevzo8, and Sol. I know you credited me, which doesn't bother me, I made those specifically for those users. I want to kindly ask you to either remove those on your page or modify them completely away so I can't tell they were originally mine, and change your userspace tags completely as well. Thank you. --^Psychic_Rider^☮ 20:35, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

One more thing. Um... do you actually know what a meme is? --ニョロトノ666 20:37, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Look buddy

Howzabout not editing your userpage for three days? You keep editing it too much, and you've been warned about it before. This is your last warning.--RexRacer 23:41, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
