Intro

I am Landfish7♪. I am here to try my best at making bulbapedia a better place. If I make a mistake please inform me.

♪Notes♪

  • I am frequently looking to check notability of trivial facts and supposable "errors" in the anime. If you think one of my edits to a trivia section or "error section" on a page is unproductive or isn't needed please inform me on the talk page of that article.
  • I will occasionally edit an article if I think something is missing or is needed on that article. If you think one of my edits to an article is unproductive or isn't needed please inform me on the talk page of that article.

My History on Bulbapedia

I had a bad start on Bulbapedia. I would always be talking on the User namespace and it became accesive. Eventually I learned that most of your edits should be on the mainspace. It was really hard to get used to Bulbapedia. I had no idea how different it was from Wikipedia. I made a zillion edits just to get my signature changed.

Eventually I got better and even created My first mainspace page. I had a few slip-ups but eventually got used to Bulbapedia. I made many productive edits. I was suprised at how many edits I made that no one got angry at or found unproductive.

The only really bad thing I have ever done was make a sock-puppet just to prove something. Which I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw the front page at the time. After a small time away from Bulbapedia I came back and started fresh. I started making tons of useful edits (and a few mistakes in my knowledge of Pokemon of course). Some of my edits and suggestions were even approved by a few admins.

I have found a main focus on my edits now. (look at the "notes" above)

More recently I have been working with some of the Bulbapedia projects. Even though the Pokémon articles are blocked that doesn't stop me from using the talk page. Even though they are blocked to regular users the Admins can still edit it. So my way of making edits to the pages is by requesting them to Admins on the respective talk pages. I also have started a little project on Project MoveDex that has to deal with moves in the manga. For more info on that click this →

I hope to be a great contributor as I move on in Bulbapedia♪. I'll do anything for Bulbapedia to be better♫.

Fishy Advice

  • If you can't find anything you can do click the "Recent changes" option on the left side of the screen to find something that you find should be changed.
    • Also click "Random page" and look through that page for something you feel is missing or needs to be changed.
  • Find something that you are good at doing and make that your main way of editing. Some people help Bulbapedia projects that specialize only on certain types of article's.
  • Use the "show preview" button to revise your edit.
  • Join a project. If you have one thing that you are focusing on than you are sure to find yourself making tons of useful edits that people will be proud of.
  • At the top of the screen there is an option called "contributions". This is to check what kind of edits you have made recently. I highly suggest using that to see if you are making too many edits to the user mainspace. If a majority of your edits has "user" at the beggining I suggest taking a break from editing the userspace and save it for the next day or save it for when you have made many productive edits to the mainspace.
  • Use your userspace to try codes out. If you want to make a template for the mainspace, first try messing with the coding on your userspace. To make a page within your userspace name it like so:

User:Example/YourPageNameHere

I suggest on the "YourPageNameHere" part put Sandbox since this is what most people use to experiment with codes.
If you are making a fun page on your userspace (let's say a page on possible future evolutions of pokémon), then it would be ok to give it your own name.
  • When in doubt . . . ask an Admin.
    • This is always one of the best things you can do when in a pickle. Look for an admin and get help! They will always be open to help you. Just be sure the admin isn't busy.


I will add more to this list if I find some more thing's that are useful. If it get's too big I will make it a whole seperate article on my userspace
