Revision as of 00:30, 22 April 2018

Welcome to Bulbapedia, PardescanSlowbro!
Bulbapedia bulb.png

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!

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 Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --Abcboy (talk) 03:43, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

As a reminder, you don't need to save something every 15 minutes (or even hour, or whatever). If you plan to be heavily working on a page, just use preview and only save once, at the end, when you're actually going to take a break from it. Tiddlywinks (talk) 02:57, 9 March 2018 (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! --Tiddlywinks (talk) 03:38, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Force Preview

Since you removed your preview warnings from your talk page, that implies that you have not read or have no intentions on reading or heeding the message. Users are expected to co-operate with staff when they are given warnings, so do take them seriously. You have been placed on force preview because making so many edits on one page, when you could've done it all in one go, is plain and simply unacceptable.--ForceFire 03:50, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Since my first edits I have felt targeted by individuals whom feel they can lecture me on my conduct. I am enthusiastic to bring about new and growing knowledge and would appreciate some leniency when it comes to the editing in multiple stages. I deleted the comments as I had read them and was not fully aware of the archive or the fact that on my own talk page I was being monitored by other individuals. I suggest users change their tact to accommodate and encourage new users rather than beating them with pointed sticks. - unsigned comment from Pardescan Slowbro (talkcontribs)
Those individuals are staff members, at least the ones giving you warnings. And the warnings are just that, warnings, you aren't going to be in any serious trouble if you adhere to them, leniency will come if you follow what is asked of you (that was, to use the preview button). Deleting comments once you've read them is a pretty odd thing to do, but it is frowned upon.--ForceFire 07:52, 11 March 2018 (UTC)

I'm actually enjoying having the Force preview feature, it acts as a reminder and is coming in use. I would also like to thank you for your edits to my additions, by streamlining it and adding to them to the actual content as opposed to deleting it.

Links

Hello! Please use link templates when linking to stuff such as Pokémon names, attacks, and the like. For example, {{p|Totodile}} instead of just [[Totodile]]. This is so you don't unintentionally link to a disambiguation page.

For a full crash course on link templates, look at the list of link templates. Thanks! ht14 03:00, 11 March 2018 (UTC)

To make things easier, please keep our discussion on your talkpage. What will definitely help is looking over the points given by Abcboy, as seen at the top of your talkpage. For instance, to sign your name, use four tildes (~~~~). All the important information can be found there. If you have any questions, feel free to ask here! ht14 03:30, 11 March 2018 (UTC)

Symbiotic Relationships

I have moved your page to your userspace at User:PardescanSlowbro/Symbiotic Relationships. Please continue to work on it and improve it there until approved by a staff member. Thanks! --Abcboy (talk) 00:29, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Not a problem, thank you PardescanSlowbro (talk) 03:18, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Edit warring

Please do not continually revert an edit, it falls under edit warring and is a blockable offense. If you disagree with an edit, discuss it on the talk page, do not revert the edit. The Brock trivia is not notable, so what if Brock hasn't used the Heavy Ball. Things get forgotten all the time in the anime, it's not that significant.--ForceFire 05:52, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

Your edits

I had to undo some of your edits because of the bad grammar and writing style, which made me unsure about what you were trying to communicate and I did not want to further skewer anything through any corrections. If English is not your primary language, I urge you to improve your English if you want to continue editing here without any problems. Thanks. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 20:13, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

I appreciate your diligence as said before. Though the changes you are making are minor, such as a word change here and there. Please realise that the scale of this 'issue' is small, though you are making it sound like I am writing with spelling mistakes throughout, no full stops or sentence structure.
