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. 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! --PhantomJunkie 16:34, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

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 08:54, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

Here's the second warning. Use the preview button and do not save the edit if the result looks messy such as here.--Den Zen 13:57, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

Signature

Per the Signature policy, signatures have to link back to your user page. Having a time stamp is also a good idea, so people can tell when you left the message. glikglak 03:37, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

Talk Page Comments

Removing talk page comments, including the initial welcome template, is prohibited per Bulbapedia's talk page policy. Please do not remove any comments in the future. If you wish to clean old comments away, you should archive your talk page instead. Thank you! --Berrenta (talk) 12:45, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

Usertag Policy

I noticed you created a usertag. However, as per the Usertag policy, you must make usertags in your own userspace. Once 5 users use your tag, and it's approved by staff, that's when it can be mainspaced. Berrenta (talk) 12:41, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

User country

Your user page is making the previously deleted category "Users from the United States of America" pop up in the wanted categories. The list of countries shows that it's just supposed to be "the United States" in the box. If you don't mind, could you fix that? glikglak 02:25, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

You're not going to get into trouble just for having a red link on your user page... I only brought it up because I thought it was simply a mistake. The wanted categories isn't anywhere near the size of the wanted pages, so having something on there that's not going to be made isn't a big deal. That's why I asked instead of just fixing it.
And if national identity's really such a big deal for you, you could always just use the {{User Template}} so you can say US of A without anyone bothering you about it. glikglak 01:00, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

United States vs United States of America

Despite the way you opened this message, you went well beyond what is acceptable or necessary. The tag is acceptable the way it is, and you have two options:

  1. Use it as it is designed.
  2. Don't use it at all.

We're not going to force over 300 other people to have their user pages changed just to suit what you want. Additionally, I'd suggest you check your own President's seal, or 1917 dollar bill before you say your country's identity is being stolen by calling it "the United States". For the time being, your userspace privileges have been restricted. - Kogoro - Talk to me - 01:13, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Talk page comments

Please don't remove talk page comments, it is against the Talk page policy.--ForceFire 07:14, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Userspace privileges

After a brief talk, discussing the matter and the events that led to this, we have decided to reinstate your privilege to edit your userspace again. However, please bear in mind that any further changes of tags regarding the "United States (of America)" issue, will result in a permanent revocation of your userpage editing privileges. Have a good day. Masatoshi talk 01:37, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
