== Nav Bar ==
Hi!
I was just wondering what the language is for your navigation bar? I wanted to have one to but I can't seem the find out how to make one. PLZ REPLY?

:[[User:Werdnae/Nav|My nav bar]], like all pages on the wiki, is written in [[Bulbapedia:Wikicode|Wikicode]]. Wikicode involves a fair amount of html as well. Aside from that help page I linked, the best way to figure out how to use it yourself is to try it. Copy the code, remove a bit and preview. Whatever no longer works is what that bit of code does. I would appreciate it if you didn't just copypaste my coding and then save though. I'd rather you figure out how it works and remake it in your own style. Just remember that the page for your nav bar is in your userspace, so the one edit per day limit includes that page - you'll have to wait until the next server day to add the navbar to your main userpage. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 23:41, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

== Questions ==

2 of 'em-

(1) How do you make your userpage backround bulba color dark?
(2) How do you make your userbox so it has [show] and [hide] options?
After I learn how to, this will be my final major edit to my u page. And I'll focus 100% on my edits (Before was like 45%.) Thanks twice- ♣♣ ''[[User:Focus58|<font color="Red">Ƒǿҫὑṩ</font>]] [[User talk:Focus58|<font color="olive">❺❽</font>]]'' ♣♣ 20:52, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
:# Put a table or div that covers the whole page with the style "<code><nowiki>background: #{{bulba color dark}};</nowiki></code>". If you need to, copy the coding for the exterior border on my talk page, remove the border bit and add that coding to it.
:# They userboxes are in a table with the class "expandable" (defaults to closed) or "collapsible" (defaults to open). Each row that should always show as a header for the following hidden bit should also have the expandable/collapsible class. Note that it doesn't work if the row has the class but the table as a whole doesn't, and you can mix-and-match the two in the same table. It still works if the table has expandable but every cell has collapsible, vice versa, or any other combination. Have a fiddle with the coding from my page if my explanation's a bit confusing. That said, I would appreciate if you didn't just copypaste my coding and then save. I'd rather you figure out how it works and add your own flair. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 23:41, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

::::Sorry for the late update. I gave up for now. I'll keep working on the expandable thing, but I need a cheat sheet or something. I would just look on wikipedia but I can't go on that. Also, I think a "bad grammar" template would be great. Draft: 

<code><nowiki>{| align="center" style="background: #{{rock color}}; border: 3px solid #{{poison color}}; width: 90%; {{roundy|40px}}"
|-

| '''This {{{1|article}}} is exhibiting many grammatical errors. Please feel free to refine the grammar in this article and enhance Bulbapedia's viewer's experiences. Bulbapedia thanks you. 
|}</nowiki></code>.

I think this template would be helpful because: One- It would let grammar and spelling freaks like myself flock to these pages and beautify  them, and Two- It adds an alternative to Template:Rewording and Template: Cleanup. If you dislike the simplicity I will either try to "fancy it up" or wait eight years, go to college, take a class in  computer programming, and try then. Or you'll do it.

:::::I've run it by a couple of other admins, and we feel that we don't really need either that or the reword one. If it's something simple, it can just be fixed when it's noticed - it's as much work to put on the template it as it is to fix. If it's extensive it probably needs a general cleanup too. IMO, Cleanup should be used where there's poor grammar, a reword is needed or it needs reformatting. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 10:24, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

:::::The way it's set up, when you put <code><nowiki>{{User:Focus58/Lop/legendary|492S|Shaymin|[[Generation IV|Gen.

Since it doesn't, it defaults to displaying the first parameter (in this case 492S). You need to change that so that the switcher is using parameter 1, so it will use "492S" in that example. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 20:53, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

== My Sig ==

Thank You so much for the signature help. I have one question though; how can a make a box to put my images in like for example that box that pokemon sprites are in on their own pages? PokePrincess 16:12, 19 June 2011 (UTC)--PokePrincess 16:12, 19 June 2011 (UTC) PokePrincess

Thanks
:The coding for the current sprite box can be found [[Template:Sprite|here]], but when you actually include the coding for the subtemplates as well it's remarkably complex because it has to take into account a lot of different scenarios. If you simply want to make a coloured box to put sprites in, then you'd be better off using a simple table. Table basics can be found on [[Bulbapedia:Wikicode]], and I'd suggest looking at the coding for the table section for the background and border coding. Most of that coding is pretty self-explanatory, especially when combined with what the page content. Also, just a note that there's a restriction on when you can edit your userpage - there's a minimum time limit and a minimum mainspace edit limit. It's great to see you're working towards the mainspace edit limit, if you haven't already reached it (I don't know the exact numbers), But you may need to wait a couple of weeks before it will let you edit it. Further details on that can be found on the {{bp|Userspace policy}}.

:Also, could I get you to change your sig code in your preferences to <code><nowiki>[[User talk:PokePrincess|PokePrincess]]</nowiki></code> please? We need it to actually have a link. If you would like to further customise your sig feel free, just ask if you need help. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 22:02, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

I am terribly sorry about my adding of trivia. I will punish myself and never do again. Besides what I am. How long will it be before I can edit my mainspace. [[User talk:PokePrincess|PokePrincess]]  00:09, 24 June 2011 (UTC)--[[User talk:PokePrincess|PokePrincess]]  00:09, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
:The mainspace can be edited by anyone. The userspace has a time and edit limit, the exact number and length of which I don't know. If [[Special:Preferences]] says you're a member of autoconfirmed, you can edit it. Once you can, remember the one-edit-per-day limit though. If you want to test out how templates work, they work just as well in previews as they do when the page is saved, so there's no need to save the page. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 00:15, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

:It's no longer a stub, so you can remove the stub tags. When you do, you'll need to rewrite the stuff you added - Information in articles should always be in third person (the player, he, she, they) not second person (you). The difference is that third person is encyclopedic, while second person is more conversational - like a walkthrough.

== Optimizing PNG Images ==

Hey, I've taken an interest in helping with the archives, one of the things I think could be useful would be if I uploaded new revisions of PNG files that have been optimized for the smallest file size (with no to very little quality difference), such as converting RGB PNG's to Indexed Color PNG's (custom palletes). Anime images are very indexed-color friendly, their size can be signifigantly shrunk with little, if no impact on quality. Is this something worth doing, and would it be alright if I performed such optimizations? It may help with bandwidth/space issues. [[User:GetOutOfBox|GetOutOfBox]] 23:21, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
:I'll bring it up with some of the other Archives staff members. While obviously smaller images will improve loading times and result in reduced bandwidth requirements, I don't think that's the main cause of the loading issues. For the record, space isn't (at least currently) an issue - every revision of every page is saved, even deleted ones. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 23:42, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
::Sure. The difference is that with many anime images, especially character images, there are only a few distinct colors used. Hence rather than encoding them in a PNG that uses the entire RGB colorspace, one could simply include palette containing the few colors the image uses. The difference can be very large, with no visual drop. I could give you a few links to comparisons if you'd like (I'll upload them on an external website for now). Obviously bandwidth isn't a large issue (I'm guessing server hardware is more often than not), but anything that could save bulbapedia some bandwidth would be helpful, especially for larger images.

== Link Template ==

I want to make a new link template, but I don't know how. I looked on the article about it but it wasn't any help. Also how do you know how to make certain templates for your userpage.

[[User talk:Donyor|Donyor, Origin Form]] 05:29, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
:What do you want to make the link template for? Templates for the userspace are mostly just tables Use the preview button and removing code to figure out the table coding is the first step. Then, anything in three braces is a parameter (e.g. <nowiki>{{{test|default}}}</nowiki> is a parameter called "test" which defaults to "default") Parameters can be used to alter the outcome over different pages. If the parameter name is a number, then it doesn't need to be named when the template is used, as long as it is that number in the template, counting only unnamed parameters. (That's probably really confusing. Have a look at existing templates to get a better idea.) Also, remember that templates for the userspace should be made in the userspace, so they count towards your limit. They only get moved to the templatespace if they become widely used. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 10:49, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Errrrr, is there a link to the template space for userspace templates, I don't know much wikicode.

[[User talk:Donyor|Donyor, Origin Form]] 14:35, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
:If you want to link to the templatespace, you can use the {{template|template}} template to easily format it like a template. If you want to use a template in the userspace, it works exactly as in the mainspace (just be careful not to include yourself in mainspace categories). Pages in the userspace can be included as templates by putting the full page name in braces, e.g. to include my nav template which is at the top of this page, I use <code><nowiki>{{User:Werdnae/Nav}}</nowiki></code>. If you're using a subpage as a template, then you can exclude the page it's included on from the call. e.g. on my userpage, the same template is called by <code><nowiki>{{/Nav}}</nowiki></code> Hope that helped.

== Talk Page ==

How does the talk page health thing work? Does it stay fixed or go up/down? Also how do you archive talk page stuff?

[[User talk:Donyor|Donyor, Origin Form]] 03:22, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
:The talk page health bar is a calculation based on the size of the page. The health goes down as the page increases in size, reaching empty when the page reaches 100kB. It's rather complicated, but the coding for mine is [[User:Werdnae/Archive|here]] if you want to reference it. To archive your talk page, use the "move" button at the top of the page to move it to a new name in your user talk space (e.g. User talk:Donyor/Archive 1) Then change the redirect that's left behind to a link to the archive.

== Leaf ==

You know what, I give up. Nobody can listen to reason.
I'm leaving not coming back etc... I' sure you have heard it before.
But before I do hear me out.

Leaf's name. Where did it come from?
She was not in the anime at all. If I'm wrong (and I'm 99% positive I'm not) what episode?
Her manga counterpart was Green. (Blue in Japan)
Her name is never officially stated in the games Pokemon Fire Red and Pokemon Leaf Green, which are the only games that she makes an appearance.
Leaf isn't THE default name, but simply one of the many that she can have if the player did not enter a name and is playing Leaf Green.
The only place where she is known as Leaf in an official source is, as a dummy trainer inside the game. (Probably to test battles or as a place holder) Furthermore this knowledge was originally obtained through illegal methods, by opening up the Rom in some program.

She has no official name.
If the name is based on internal data, then it's important to list that.
If it isn't based on internal data and she has no official name, Then its a fan name, so it's important to list that.
Why do you refuse to acknowledge this? After all this IS an online encyclopedia specializing in Pokemon, is it not? One would think that this would be important trivia.

Hi! I'm not sure how to find the talk page. I haven't been to bulbapedia very long. An admin didn't remove my edit. I was trying to get it into Trivia.

That was pretty much all that was wrong with your edit. (If you're going to say "I'm not making this up", it does make us consider the possibility that you are.)

== Pokémon League Naming System ==

Hey Werdnae, since you’re the head of games I’m coming to you with an issue I’ve noticed. I noticed that there is an inconsistency in the naming of Pokémon Leagues. It’s understandable that the Kanto and Johto leagues are named the Indigo league, but the page for the Pokémon league in Hoenn is named [[Hoenn League]], while Sinnoh and Unova are named “Pokémon Leauge (Sinnoh/Unova). Why are these two named differently from Hoenn? I think in order to keep consistency Hoenn should be moved to “Pokémon League (Hoenn)” or if there’s another solution maybe something else can be worked out. Any Thoughts? Thanks! [[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]] 04:59, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
:The Sinnoh and Unova ones are at that location because that's what they are called in-game. Likewise the Indigo league. Hoenn league. . . I don't know. Jo checked and a woman just outside Hoenn's Victory road says "The POKéMON LEAGUE is only a short distance after the VICTORY ROAD. If you've come this far, what choice do you have but to keep going?". So I'd say bring it up on the talk page, and see if anyone can provide a reason it should stay there. If not, we can move it to "Pokémon League (Hoenn)". <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 07:37, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
::Um, you two seem to be confused. The Sinnoh and Unova counterparts to [[Indigo League]] and [[Hoenn League]] are [[Sinnoh League]] and [[Unova League]], while the Kanto (Indigo) and Hoenn counterparts to [[Pokémon League (Sinnoh)]] and [[Pokémon League (Unova)]] are [[Indigo Plateau]] and [[Ever Grande City]]. The first group is the organizations (so includes the Gym Leaders, Elite Four, and Champion), the second group is the name of the place where the Elite Four and Champion reside (or where the Pokémon League tournament is held in the anime, which is why [[Mt. Silver]] is with them on the navigation template). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:23, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

== Help me Reword it and please restore my last glitch ==

Ok can you help me reword it? Ability Changing Glitch
This glitch is common in Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness. When a Pokemon is capable of having more than one ability, such as Golduck's Cloud Nine which can be tested or proven by using combinations such as Rain Dance + Thunder, Sunny Day + Solarbeam, or Hail + Blizzard, etc. and then during the weather effects Thunder or Blizzard misses or Solarbeam has to charge up even though it's sunny. K.O. the Pokemon and then get it from Miror B. Go to the PC and check the Pokemon's stats and it now has a 50% chance of changing its ability. It is possible now that the Golduck can have Damp even it appeared to have Cloud Nine in the first battle.
Another way of activating the glitch is to lose to a trainer that has a Shadow Pokemon that is capable of having more than one ability. Example, to trigger this glitch on Greevil enter the battle with his Moltres and Rhydon without an Electric move. If you use an Electric move, it will automatically reveal its ability and the glitch will fail. Save before you fight him the second time and you would have already snagged Lugia. Get into a battle and use an Electric attack on Moltres. Reset and then attempt to use an Electric type on Moltres again and have Rhydon block it with Lightningrod. This glitch has been confirmed on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0rEkxYGEuY

[edit]EXP Glitch
This glitch only works on Pokemon Colosseum. When your opponent is down to their last Pokemon, have one Pokemon use Perish Song while the other uses something to burn, Will-o-wisp, or poison, Toxic, to poison the enemy. Then DO NOT faint the Pokemon. If the Pokemon faints to any of your attacks, the glitch will fail. If it faints to the Toxic, your Pokemon will gain EXP Points. Then when the countdown of Perish Song starts, you'll gain the same amount of EXP Points you earned as for the EXP Points gained for the Pokemon that was defeated. EXP Points will be awarded twice to both Pokemon no matter which side they're on, left or right. This glitch was removed in Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness but was in Colosseum for unknown reasons.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41_bnx_Zs_Q 

If you feel like these don't follow the code of conduct, then I'm sorry but I post everything in my best grammar. I'm tired of people telling me I don't use good grammar because that is nonimportant and untrue. I am 15. You in general means the player, since I don't know what you name yourselves but respectively, what words should I use that still make sense? Anyway my article about the EXP Share glitch in the 4th gen game was removed. Could you JAs restore it please? I'm pretty sure I discovered an EXP Share glitch where your Pokemon would gain one less EXP Point if it was holding EXP Share and it defeated a Pokemon in battle that you know how many EXP Points it wages. ([[User:MichaelXD|MichaelXD]] 23:01, 1 January 2012 (UTC))
:I don't have time to do the full reword myself. If I did, I'd just have done it. For the final paragraph, it should go something like this:
::''"In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], an opponent's last Pokémon may give experience twice if it faints due to damage from a status effect while also affected by {{m|Perish Song}}. This was fixed in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]."''
:The idea is that rather than using "you" as a substitute for naming the player, you write it in such a way that you don't need to refer to the player in that manner at at all.

:For the Experience Share "glitch", all rounding goes downwards. If the experience rewarded would have been odd, (e.g. 101) then half of that gives in a number ending in .5 (in the example, 50.5). That is then rounded down (50), meaning that a total of one experience point is lost. It's not a glitch, it's how the calculation works. That's why it was removed from the glitch page.

:I don't care how old you are. You're still expected to follow the proper style of an encyclopedia when you add stuff here. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 23:19, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Ok, I was saying that I didn't know how to word things. Was I not supposed to state how to perform the glitch but write the article about how the glitch operates? I thought that the Pokemon gaining one less EXP Point due to EXP Share was a glitch. When I use 2 Pokemon in double battle I usually think the one not battling with it earns the sum of the EXP Points earned while the Lucky Egg brings extra EXP Points. It's the same as having a traded Pokemon without Lucky Egg. I wasn't making an excuse. I just have never edited things for the public before so I don't know how anything should be worded around here. I have made an edit to include the game. Also there is a glitch on Pokemon XD. One is the ability changing glitch and another is the platform glitch. I'll try to get rid of I and you if that is causing you a pain. Again, I'm sorry. ([[User:MichaelXD|MichaelXD]] 15:06, 15 January 2012 (UTC))

== Error in EXP Points Group Fast & Medium Fast ==

Hi. I would like to inform that there seems to be an error in the EXP Points group. For my favorite video game Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness I wrote which EXP group every Pokemon was in. That includes Rapidash, the Shadow Pokemon that is snagged from Cipher Peon Kolest on Citadark Isle and I checked the amount of experience points my Ponyta has at level 28 in Pokemon Pearl and how many she has left to level 29. Hence I am raising her to level 30. When I checked my chart on Microsoft Excel, she seemed to be in the actual Fast group. Not the Medium fast group. You should be surprised that I just don't start randomly editing anywhere without any proof. Also I didn't know how to send a message before but no one removed my edit about battling Chobin. Only about the genders and abilities for anime Pokemon which I was warned for. I stopped because I didn't want to make whoever ran it angry. Ponyta and Rapidash have 1,000,000 at level 100, not 800,000. ([[User:MichaelXD|MichaelXD]] 13:41, 15 January 2012 (UTC))
:I just checked, and my Rapidash in White is in the Medium Fast group (216000 EXP at level 60). Can you perhaps use Rare Candies to get some level data (you don't need to save after using them; you can just reset and you won't lose any)? Also, I think your last statement s backwards. At level 100, we do say Ponyta and Rapidash have 1,000,000 EXP; if it were in the Fast group, it would have 800,000. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 15:45, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

I did train Rapidash to level 60 once for the Orre Colosseum and I'm looking at my chart I got from here. Is the table wrong or something? I only have one Rare Candy and I'll have to see again either when I get Rapidash in Pearl or battle a Cipher Peon on Citadark Isle again who has a Rapidash and then purify it. I didn't catch Rapidash in my last game because I rushed and was trying to get a glitch to work that only operates on Citadark Isle. ([[User:MichaelXD|MichaelXD]] 00:12, 16 January 2012 (UTC))

Edit, ok my table is wrong perhaps. I got in the mix when I wrote my table. So you're right and I'm wrong. I thought Medium Fast was right next to Erratic. ([[User:MichaelXD|MichaelXD]] 00:17, 16 January 2012 (UTC))

:The tile-composite images are accurate representations of the in-game maps and are quite high quality, they're not bad images and don't need to be tagged as such.

I'm sorry. Pokegeek already saw it and I and he worked it out. I'll keep it on Magnedeth's page for now since one of his friend, I assume, linked me to the staff of bulbapedia. ([[User:MichaelXD|MichaelXD]] 03:37, 26 February 2012 (UTC))

Excuse me. I have a question about this. If a member informs the staff or admin, creator, or webmaster of a site that they have a friend at their IP address, sibling, or cousin, do they communicate about it with other staff so that they don't falsely accuse them of ban evasion or sockpuppeting because that's what my brother's friend Ruckus Jorgee was accused of on multiple forums. I'm sure you've heard of him here in an argument in relation to serebii when he saw some guy named ShinyMew get on the forum who he claims is Jess. Ruckus Jorgee says he is Max's friend as well.

== Hey Werdnae, I'm MichaelXD's Older Brother ==

Hello. I just came to tell you that I am not MichaelXD's sockpuppet account. I am his older brother. My friend is getting his phone charged up so he can call a friend and communicate with them. I don't know how nothing showed up in his email. His email address is sundiatas@sbcglobal.net the one my brother was complaining about that his account here was never activated and he never received a confirmation email notice for his name but at least I'm happy that my name was available and on the list for registration. Is there anything else you'd like to say? I can prove that I am MichaelXD's brother because I was nice enough to help pack him a lunch for his field trip. I talked to him on his talk page.

''The administrator has banned your email address. You will need to change your email address in order to continue. If you think this is done in error, please click here to contact the administrator.'' - whenever I try to register with my e-mail, this happens... is there is an account that was automatically created? I don't remember registering on Bulbagarden Forums before. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 19:24, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
:There's no automatic account created on the forums for wiki accounts. The software is different and there are technical barriers to doing so. I'm not sure exactly why it's saying that.

== Hey ==

I'm sorry if I'm interrupting you, but {{u|Aidenquinnb24|three}} {{u|Aidenquinnu78|users}} {{u|Aidenquinnu10|have}} very identical names and have just been created in a short period of time. I have already asked one about it, but I doubt I'm gonna get a response. So I was hoping you would do something about it.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#424B50">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#848A8D">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#E3CED0">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#EDDFE0">ire</span>]] 06:55, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

== How many edits? ==

I know that when I'm editing my user pages, this text shows up:

:''"You are currently editing your userpage or a page in the user namespace. All edits to this page must be in accordance with the userspace policy. You may not make more than three edits to this namespace per day. Please limit your edits and preview before saving."''

Does it mean that I can make only three edits for all the pages in total or on a single page? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] 15:53, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
:Userspace total. So if you make one edit to your main userpage, and then two edits to user subpages, that's fine. But just be sure to make at least four mainspace edits before making the three userspace edits. <sup>[[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#C00;">★</span>]]</sup>[[User:Jo The Marten|<span style="color:#C00;">Jo the Marten</span>]]<sup>[[Flygon (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#C00;">★</span>]]</sup> [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|<span style="color:#C00;">ಠ_ಠ</span>]][[Cilan (anime)|<span style="color:#90C870;">♥</span>]] 16:00, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

::Thanks. So if I've made one edit to my main userpage and two edits to a subpage, is it OK or not to make one more edit to the subpage? (Sorry, I just want to be sure.) --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] 17:29, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
:::If I'm understanding correctly, that'd be four userspace edits. While it's preferred you just stick with three, if you slip up and make a fourth to correct a minor spelling error, or a redlink/incorrect category, we'll be a bit more lenient. Just don't make a habit out of it. But four major edits is a no. Pick three you want to make first, then save the fourth for another day. <sup>[[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#C00;">★</span>]]</sup>[[User:Jo The Marten|<span style="color:#C00;">Jo the Marten</span>]]<sup>[[Flygon (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#C00;">★</span>]]</sup> [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|<span style="color:#C00;">ಠ_ಠ</span>]][[Cilan (anime)|<span style="color:#90C870;">♥</span>]] 17:38, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
