:That requires an update to [[Template:NumberPrevNext]], which is used on (now) 803 pages. We prefer not to update such high-use templates until low-traffic times (since it'll probably crash the server for a good few minutes), so an update will have to wait. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 03:28, 4 December 2016 (UTC) | |||

== Learnset edits? == | |||
Hello, I've noticed you've been adding type information back into the wikicode for all the learnset sections on move pages. However, I am not seeing any change to the page itself when this happens, and I can't help but wonder--just what are you doing? Not meaning to criticize or anything, just genuinely curious. I don't know too much about how the wiki works, or how any of these templates are used. [[User:Xolroc|Xolroc]] ([[User talk:Xolroc|talk]]) 03:40, 23 December 2016 (UTC) | |||
:I'm updating the move pages in order to prepare for a template update. Currently, you can't see the types displayed on the page because the relevant templates haven't been updated yet. Once all the pages are updated, the template will be updated. If the template were updated before the pages were updated, you would just see a bunch of "Unknown" types or something on the move pages, but if the pages are all prepared before a template update, then once the templates have been updated, the correct types will display instantly. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 03:44, 23 December 2016 (UTC) | |||

== Z-Move templates == | |||
I didn't know that there was a staff decision about this subject, and I'm honestly surprised about this. I figured that improvised moves need a description, sure, since they naturally don't have pages of their own, but Z-Moves, on the other hand, DO have their own pages, where the anime description can be put into. My thought was to use a similar style as with the moves used via {{m|Metronome}}/{{m|Mimic}}/etc. in the anime, which also use regular move templates, but apparently that's not the case with Z-Moves. Can this be changed? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 16:20, 2 January 2017 (UTC) | |||
:The current setup was [[Special:Diff/2573950|decided]] by our Head of Anime and Kogoro. We haven't seen Z-Moves being used much in the anime yet, so what we're currently using is subject to change depending on how Z-Moves are treated as the Sun & Moon series moves along. If you have any suggestions for how we should display Z-Moves in the anime, please share them with {{u|Pokemaster97}}. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 16:39, 2 January 2017 (UTC) | |||

:That's alright; as long as you're aware now. Just a tip for the future: if you notice that an edit of yours keeps getting reverted, don't just simply redo it; that is considered edit warring and is grounds for a short block. Instead of edit warring, you can ask why your edit is continually being reverted either on the talk page of the article or on the talk page of the user who reverted your edit. Please keep this in mind when editing in the future. Thanks. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 02:57, 8 January 2017 (UTC) | |||
== User:Poképowder == | |||
I just noticed that [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:Contributions/Pok%C3%A9powder User:Poképowder]'s recent contributions look almost word-for-word identical to those of [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:Contributions/Thesaurus Thesaurus] several months ago, down to the absence of all intervening edits. Therefore, I suspect this may be a sockpuppet user, so I wanted to alert a staff member. Thanks for your time.

:I am aware and have brought it up with other staff members. It will be dealt with when an administrator becomes available. Thanks for the concern. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 19:56, 8 January 2017 (UTC) | |||
::Looking at these edits myself, they seem like reasonable things to add. A description of the character's appearance would be useful to vision-impaired users, after all. The user's behaviour, on the other hand, is not acceptable; edit warring is explicitly not allowed and I want to make it clear I am defending the content the user is adding, not the manner in which they are going about doing it. [[User:Xolroc|Xolroc]] ([[User talk:Xolroc|talk]]) 19:59, 8 January 2017 (UTC) | |||
:::I wouldn't call making things up "reasonable". Plenty of what this user is adding just plain isn't real. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 20:02, 8 January 2017 (UTC) | |||
::::I was referring specifically to the ones that describe the characters' outfits. I looked more closely at some of them and yes, some of that is just vandalism. [[User:Xolroc|Xolroc]] ([[User talk:Xolroc|talk]]) 20:04, 8 January 2017 (UTC) | |||
:::::Actually, I should have looked more closely. Even the outfit ones are made up. Though the idea of adding a simple (and ''correct'') visual description is still one I feel has merit. [[User:Xolroc|Xolroc]] ([[User talk:Xolroc|talk]]) 20:07, 8 January 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Why would you delete my n2num thing? == | |||
Well, technically it isn't deleted yet, but still, what's wrong with a lowercase one? [[User:Unowninator|Unowninator]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 18:51, 10 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
:First of all...you don't just duplicate any page. There's absolutely no logical reason to do that. The reasoning "it was annoying me" isn't a valid one at all. Second...the {{template|N2Num}} template is in the template namespace. You created the new page in the mainspace, making it so that any casual reader can access just by clicking the [[Special:Random|Random page]] link in the sidebar. Third...a lowercase version isn't necessary. That is all. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 19:01, 10 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
== About the template I made == | |||
My apologies for not following protocol. I was unaware of a specific policy concerning permission for creating templates, and I didn't think that this addition was particularly controversial. Anyway, to that end, I'd like to see to it that the template is moved back to my userspace while approval is pending. (And please let me know how I should go about obtaining that approval.) Thank you! | |||
—[[User:WhosHaddady|<span style="color:#f1912b">'''Haddady'''</span>]] [[User talk:WhosHaddady|<small><span style="color:#5599ca">~Straight Outta the Bag~</span></small>]] 18:33, 20 June 2017 (UTC) | |||
:The template was indeed moved back to your userspace. In general, in order to obtain approval for mainspacing a template, you add <code><nowiki>{{mainspace|template|status=complete}}</nowiki></code> to the top of the template (inside noinclude brackets, of course). This will add it to {{cat|Templates for mainspacing}}. (If you're not quite done setting up the template, then add <code><nowiki>{{mainspace|template}}</nowiki></code> instead to place it in {{cat|Templates for mainspacing/Under construction}}.) You should also show examples of the template being used on the talk page of the template so that the staff can see how you plan to implement it and what it will look like when used. When you think you're all set, you can try contacting a {{bp|staff}} member on their talk page to let them know you want your template to be mainspaced. | |||
:Now, as for this specific template, I'd say it would be better to just place the entire table hard-coded on the page itself instead of using a template for it. We rarely make templates that will only be used on one page, and when we do, it's because there's a lot of data involved. This is not a case that needs a template. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 19:02, 20 June 2017 (UTC) | |||
::Thank you for responding. I'll be sure to follow those steps the next time I'm preparing a template for the mainspace, and I suppose I'll just code the table into the article like you suggested. Should I go ahead and delete the mainspace template page, or leave it to someone else? | |||

:::The redirect is already marked for deletion.

== Looking For Help == | |||
So, my User Page has been blocked for seven years now and I recently found out I'm under the 'abuse user group'. I was told that I should 'talk to an admin about having that repealed', so... here I am. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

:You just asked two other staff members about this not even 12 hours ago...I suggest you wait for a response from either of them for at least a few days before nudging other staff members. Additionally, only {{bp|Senior Administrators}} and above can put you out of the abuse user group, so I wouldn't be able to do anything about that, anyways. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 14:24, 16 July 2017 (UTC) | |||
