Hello there. I've been a long-time Pokémon fan and I'm here on Bulbapedia to help out with the many articles here. I'm also on the English Wikipedia as WikiPediaAid where I am currently doing a workpage for a Bulbapedia article on the famed free encyclopedia and I would like for any Bulbapedia users that are also on Wikipedia to help out adding information into the Bulbapedia workpage there and also help clean it up a bit to make it more refined.

However, please do not promote it into a full-fledged Wikipedia article just yet. Previous attempts to make a Wikipedia article about Bulbapedia have been thwarted by members of the site for various reasons (one of them being a lack of "acceptable" citations), despite the existence of Wikipedia articles about other fan wikis such as Wookieepedia and the WoWWiki (which have "acceptable" citations like mentions on Variety or PC Gamer). Also, don't copy and paste information directly from Bulbapedia into the workpage; in the case that information from Bulbapedia does need to be on the workpage, then please put an effort to paraphrase any bit of information if possible. If this workpage can look like a more legitimate Wikipedia article with plenty of unbiased information and "acceptable" citations, then maybe there will be a Wikipedia article about Bulbapedia that will be able to stay on that site.

Creations, projects, and considerations

All of the below are on Bulbapedia only. Creations and projects are shown in chronological order, while considerations come afterward in alphabetical order. In the "type" and "name" columns, creations are boldface, projects are in italics, and considerations are underlined:

BulbaPediaAid's creations, projects, and considerations
Type Name Summary Comments
Article April Fool's Day 2010 Pokémon-related hoaxes and pranks on April 1, 2010. First created article, though it was going to be made whether or not I made it first.
Workpage Pokémorph Fanon term regarding either characters who can transform into Pokémon or anthropomorphic Pokémon. First article concept project. Despite that significant progress has been made since this project started, it still needs some more information. When it's promoted to the mainspace, there will be pictures added to the article.
Category Podcasts Category that focuses on various significant Pokémon fan podcasts. First created category. The category's first entries are Bulbacast, WTPT - Pokémon Radio, and It's Super Effective, which are currently the only three podcast articles on the site.
Template Podcast Infobox for podcast articles, derived from Template:Fan site. First template. Due to my inexperience in making templates though, I derived from the fan site template to make this template.
Article concept Pokémon Underground Champions League New Year's Eve 2007-debuted podcast (and its affiliated website) hosted by a person known as "Trainer Thatch" with several recurring co-hosts. It is well-known for its wacky humor (including fake interviews, fake commercials, and several running gags such as their announcer intro), its colorful cast of hosts, its rivalry with WTPT - Pokémon Radio, its longevity, and for being an explicit Pokémon-focused podcast. Actually, I never really liked that podcast, but I do believe it finally deserves to be mentioned on Bulbapedia. I am not sure if any Bulbapedia users have been making their own PUCL workpages, however.
