Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Kevzo8/Archives!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:

  • For a basic overview of wiki code, see this page.
  • The manual of style is very important. Make sure to read it. It outlines all official policies of Bulbapedia.
  • The word Pokémon is spelled with a capital P and an accented é. The P, of course, is accessed easily by holding Shift and pressing the P key, while the é can be accessed using Alt + 130 or Alt + 0233 on a Windows computer, and Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can click it in the character palette below the editbox.
  • The word Poké Ball is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a captial B (which is, again, accessed by holding Shift and pressing the B key). The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
  • The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
  • On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
  • The use of link templates is official policy. For an explanation on their use, see the page on shortlinks.
  • If you happen to spot a vandal in the recent changes that has not been dealt with, please see this page for how to deal with it.
  • A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at this page. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found here, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found here.
  • For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the anime, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as Brock's Happiny being held in his arms).
  • Image uploading is done on Bulbagarden Archives, a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. You will have to register separately for it, as well. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and Bulbanews have access to the images uploaded.
  • If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Kevzo8/Archives/1/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
  • Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
  • A list of the admins that you can contact in case of a problem, can be found here.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here! TESHIGIGAS 11:12, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Name Change

that isnt how you change your name. you need to ask the Editor-in-Chief. TTEchidna. -- MAGNEDETH 04:53, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry. I'm quite new here. --kebs. 04:56, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

its ok. just ask TTE, hes the only one. to properly change it is a huge task that only he can apply. -- MAGNEDETH 04:58, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
wow, thats cool. anyway, thanks for that. [:--kebs. 05:00, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Please

Slow down on editing the User: namespace. There are only three userspace edits allowed per day, and you have gone over the limit. Editing your userpage too much will lead to it being locked again. Instead of making multiple small edits, why not instead use the preview button (Alt + Shift + P) to check your edits before saving the page? Thank you. ----PAK Man Talk 05:43, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

oops! I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. I was actually using preview but clicks save. Sorry. T_T [feels so foolish] --kebs. 05:46, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Evo Text

theres a special way to do those, dont worry, i got them covered. -- MAGNEDETH 03:03, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Well, Ok. I'm just gonna do edits to the MoveDex. --DUSKevz 03:06, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
like what? -- MAGNEDETH 03:08, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
The move tutors in Platinum + some move's game image. They are incomplete. --DUSKevz 03:10, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
well, dont worry about the images, but the tutor things, please. go, do! btw, your signature is breaking the signature policy. your sig has to reflect your actual username. -- MAGNEDETH 03:12, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, but like what I said in the above section I wanna change my username but I couldn't get the right timing to talk with TTE about it. So maybe I should change it for a while?--DUSKevz 03:15, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
well, if you arent going to change it for a while, then yes. but, as a talk page, im sure he checks it every day. just leave him a note, and hell get around to it at his earliest convenience. -- MAGNEDETH 03:18, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
well, someone just told him that there are lots of users getting their name changed lately so I worried about it. So probably I have to stick with this username and wait for long.--o8kevz 03:22, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
meh. up to you. its just weird, and annoying, that a lot of users wanted their names changed all of a sudden, thats all. also, you know your sig can be saved in your preferences, right? -- MAGNEDETH 03:25, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
yep. I know. Just had a little trouble with coding and fixed it right in there. Someone also noted that some users have too much subpages so I did not create my own Sandbox. So instead, I try codes in the talk page, and do some previews.--Kevzo8 03:28, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
good move. sandboxes are usually ok, but, i havnt needed one. -- MAGNEDETH 03:33, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
I'm currently working for AncientPower tutor and my papa calls me for lunch. gtg before my papa gets angry at me.--Kevzo8 03:42, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Deletion Call

If you want to nominate an article for deletion, don't copy-paste the contents of Template:Delete or call the template with subst:. Just type in {{delete}} to do the job. --Shiningpikablu252 16:21, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Ok. I didn't know that it has to be {{delete}} with no subst: thing. --Kevzo8 11:54, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

TCG Movie Titles

they stay the same, so, dont bother. -- MAGNEDETH 02:58, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

uhmm, ok. "~" --Kevzo8 03:00, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
i dont know why, but, i know they do. -- MAGNEDETH 03:09, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
I see. Why don't they at least italicize the movie title?--Kevzo8 03:11, 23 November 2008 (UTC)


Mamoswine

Actually, it DID use Ice Beam against Team Rocket, that's why it's on the list. If it never used it, it wouldn't be on the list. So it might be best if you change it back...and plus, it was kinda proven that it doesn't know Take Down anymore.--Tavisource 07:02, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I dunno that. In which episode? As I remember, in DP104, right after it evolved into Piloswine, it used Take Down. And in DP106, It used Dig, Ice Shard and Ancientpower. Ice beam was used in the 11th movie, I think. If I omitted or missed a thing, please correct my doing. --Kevzo8 07:09, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

pokemon cant just forgot a move in the anime. what was that move that mamoswine used on tr after hitting them with ice shard? and when did it use ice beam Happizelpom 07:19, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I don't think it is a move, it merely bumped them with its pure strength.

Welcome

Trying to get all the credit eh?--Force Fire talk 03:34, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

No. When I clicked the talk page, there's none. So I tried to {{subst:welcome}} the user. Sorry about that, it just happened that I posted maybe a second after you did.--Kevzo8 03:37, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
Its been doing that. Dark Fiddler did it to me, and he didnt undo me to do it. Twas an accidentDCM((曲奇饼妖怪Spy on My Edits))
So maybe I should undo that too. wait..--Kevzo8 04:07, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
You did already. I haven't notice that. -.-;--Kevzo8 04:09, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
While your learning grammar, memorize whom, who, well, good, and all those other funky phrases. Helpful hints from DCMDCM((曲奇饼妖怪Spy on My Edits)) 04:14, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
that, uh, helps. thanks. >.< --Kevzo8 04:18, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Please

Thank you.

For your help. Not much more I can say. --((Marton imos)) 08:52, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

No problem. I'm glad to help. :D But there's a question.. Shall I use link removed and replace the long link? --Kevzo8 08:55, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
...um. I... guess so? Some people complain about wasting edits for that, but as long as we're editing that anyway to do the parenthetical... --((Marton imos)) 09:02, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
As far as I know, template helps in decreasing the a page size..isn't it?--Kevzo8 09:07, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
Yeah... well, that and ease of use. It's easier to write {{Ash}} than [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]], and much easier to write out {{g|Ranger: Shadows of Almia}} than [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]. Etc. But I do try to save page space where I can. --((Marton imos)) 09:11, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
I see. Like what I have read in TTE's talk page. So we're doing this to avoid redirect as much as possible?--Kevzo8 09:15, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
Martonimos hates redirects, yes. But in this case, a move resulted in Pokémon Ranger being a disambig and the game article being at Pokémon Ranger (game). That means all the links pointed to the wrong page. I got a bunch by editing a few templates, but as luck would have it, Fabu-Vinny does the side games stuff without a template, so we had to go through and do it manually.
In any case, I do believe we are done. --((Marton imos)) 11:05, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
Yup yup. we're done. I'm so glad to help with your relinking project. :D --Kevzo8 11:11, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations!

BronzeBulbasaur.png The Bronze Bulbasaur Award

Congratulations! For your outstanding service to Bulbapedia you have been awarded the Bronze Bulbasaur Award for December, 2008 by the Bulbapedia editorial board!


Please place this template onto your userpage by putting {{User received BronzeBulba|December, 2008}} among your userboxes.

-- MAGNEDETH 06:19, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

wow.. thanks! ^_^ --☆Kevzo8 10:26, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Congratulations, dude. --Clarky13 10:31, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks :D--☆Kevzo8 11:03, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Four edits per day

Hey! I haven't understand why 4 edits per day...even on Wikipedia is ike this, why's that for?
Homie 11:45, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

It stresses the Server... I think....--FF(edits-talk) 11:51, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
Editing the userspace too much can clog the server, that's why it was limited to four edits per day. If you want to edit your userpage again, you must wait again 'til tomorrow, which is based from UTC, as you can see for the clock at the top beside your username. As a recommendation, you can also use the Preview button to allow you to see your page's progress without making too many edits. Visit userspace policy to learn more. You can make mainspace edits for a while. ^_^--☆Kevzo8 11:52, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
- Please Explain

What in the world does Sysop mean? Pleas answer soon!

-Lapras 03:03, 11 January 2009 (UTC)


- Thanks!

Yes! The bully (MAGNEDETH) is a sysop, I guess. He's bullying me because I'm new. By the way, how do you become an administrator?

-Lapras 03:15, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Not asking. TTEchidna 03:23, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Regarding mozborders

Is this edit summary targeted at me? I'm slightly confused... [1]THE TROM — 10:53, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

It's general. It happened to me like many times before, and happened again today. D: --☆Kevzo8 10:56, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
