Welcome to Bulbapedia, Pokequesthero!

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules:

  • Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct.
  • Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around.
  • Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page.
  • Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style.
  • You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy.
  • Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
  • If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite.
  • Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
  • For more handy links, see the welcome portal.
Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

Edit warring

Hey there. If someone removes something you added in, please don't just immediately add it back in (unless it was some sort of vandal edit). Reverting edits multiple times is called edit warring and is severely frowned upon. If you really feel something should be mentioned, bring it up on the talk page and state your reasons why it should stay. However, I think MisterE13 had a better argument against your trivia, so please don't add it back. Thanks, and have a nice evening. Jo the Marten ಠ_ಠ 06:06, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

Talk pages are also included in the above note about reversions & edit wars. If something you have changed/added has been removed from a page, please be sure to check the history of the page before taking any action. It is very likely that the reverting party has made a note as to why they have reverted you in the edit summary. If you disagree with their reasoning, you need to bring it up with them on their talk page & come to an agreement before any restoration should done. - Kogoro - Talk to me - 01:11, 22 January 2012 (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! ----rockersk08 18:40, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

Userspace

Hey, you've made too many userspace edits lately. You made five in the past three days, and zero mainspace edits. You need to make at least four mainspace edits a day to make three edits to your userspace. Please hold off on editing your userspace until you've made a respectable number of mainspace edits.

Link templates

Hey, please be sure to use link templates as often as possible. They make linking a little easier, turning links like [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]] into {{p|Pikachu}}. You can find a complete list of link templates here. Jo the Marten ಠ_ಠ 02:40, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
