::::::::: How is the trivia I posted on the Fairy page not good trivia, cause if that one isn't, most of the Trivia isn't good trivia. Like the one that says this Pokémon is the only ..../.... type. Can also be categorized as "So What?", some people might not care. [[User:Danny199|Danny199]] ([[User talk:Danny199|talk]]) 07:46, 6 April 2016 (UTC) | |||
::::::::::First of all, do not insert a talk page comment in between two other comments in the same section. This ruins the flow of conversation. | |||
::::::::::Second, your trivia was way too specific (i.e.: had too many specific requirements) to be notable. We don't like overly specific trivia. For example, "This Pokémon is the only ..../.... type" is acceptable by {{bp|staff|our}} standards because its requirements aren't too specific. Even more, it's focusing on one Pokémon out of 721 (with known types, as of the time of this comment) and pointing out its uniqueness from all 720 other Pokémon. When you're focusing on one type out of 18, this makes its uniqueness factor go down quite a bit, so the requirements for the trivia about that type really shouldn't be all too specific. Your trivia required: | |||
::::::::::#Be a type paired with the {{t|Grass}} type | |||
::::::::::#Be a type paired with the {{t|Water}} type | |||
::::::::::#Be a type not paired with the {{t|Fire}} type | |||
::::::::::#Be the only type for which all three of the above is true | |||
::::::::::This is just way too specific to be noted. | |||
::::::::::Third, the Fairy ''just'' got introduced. It's not going to be paired up with every type in the generation it's introduced in. It doesn't matter if it's the only type to not be paired with all three starter types. Adding that trivia point would really be "reaching"/"trying too hard" for lack of better terms; it's deliberately searching and bloating up a factoid (i.e.: adding too many specific requirements) in order to make it seem "unique." | |||
::::::::::Fourth, the "so what?" portion isn't really all that subjective, but instead more based on what we ({{bp|staff}} ''and'' members too, really) find appropriate for the purposes of this site, based on what I said above. --[[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> 12:38, 6 April 2016 (UTC) | |||

== Ash's Torterra == | |||
And why in the word is the fact that both Torterra, as Turtwig, and Bulbasaur both are the protectors of a sort of village filled with Pokémon. Both protect a Pokémon from Ash and his friends, Either it being an Oddish protecting for Misty, or Ash's Pikachu, thinking it being a wild Pokémon, protecting it for Ash, Dawn and Brock. Afterwards, both are captured. Sounds like perfect trivia for me. [[User:Danny199|Danny199]] ([[User talk:Danny199|talk]]) 17:25, 15 March 2016 (UTC) | |||
:While true, it's just not significant enough to include. Also, comparison trivia on Pokémon pages is generally discouraged due to the amount of subjectivity it involves with regards to notability. --[[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> 17:36, 15 March 2016 (UTC) | |||

== About using the roundy templates == | |||
I have a huge question that I'd really like to ask you. I've been trying to use the roundy templates in the tables, and unfortunately I'm having difficulty in being able to use it on the bottom row of the table. Like for instance, if I try putting it in the same way as it is done with the top row, it does absolutely nothing. I'm not sure if it's a bug with the tables or if I'm actually using it incorrectly. | |||
I try using this code: | |||
<nowiki> | |||

Is there something else I need to put into the code? —[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 12:47, 29 March 2016 (UTC) | |||
:::There shouldn't be a <code>;</code> between <code><nowiki>style="{{roundybl|5px}}"</nowiki></code> and <code>align="center"</code>. Other than that, the bottom right corner looks fine to me (on Google Chrome). Something worth noting is that on Firefox (and maybe other browsers), even after taking out the <code>;</code>, you will not be able to see the roundy corners. What ''does'' work is taking out the style settings you set for the entire row (after the <code>|-</code> for the last row) and manually placing it in each of the last row's cells' settings. There are also a bunch of style issues with your code that, while technically not wrong, are considered outdated on Bulbapedia, namely the use of <code>align="center"</code>. Coding is a bit hard to explain in words even though I'm trying my best to explain, but perhaps if I fixed up the table code in [[Dungeon tile]], and you viewed the diff, it'd be easier for you to understand? --[[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> 13:02, 29 March 2016 (UTC) | |||

:::::::Actually, the <code>margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;</code> was ''not'' what was preventing the roundy edges from working. What those do is just start the table 10 pixels from the left and leave 10 pixels of open space below the table. I left them out because they simply weren't needed for this table. What ''was'' preventing the roundy edges from working was the code next to the <code>|-</code>, which was overriding any other style codes for the cells in that row, namely the roundy calls. Like I said earlier, you have to manually insert that code into the style settings for each cell. So the bottom-left cell would get <code><nowiki>| style="background:#FFF; {{roundybl|5px}}" | <insert content for bottom-left cell></nowiki></code>, the middle cells would get <code>| style="background:#FFF" | <insert content for middle cells></code>, and the bottom-right cell would get <code><nowiki>| style="background:#FFF; {{roundybr|5px}}" | <insert content for bottom-right cell></nowiki></code>.

::::::::Ah! Now that totally makes sense. So basically if there's any code in the <code><nowiki>|-</nowiki></code>, it will use that code for the entire row of that table. I have to remember that if there's anything that needs to be inserted on the bottom cells, I have to make sure there isn't any code in that <code><nowiki>|-</nowiki></code> space. I will have to remember that only the middle cells should have codes in the <code><nowiki>|-</nowiki></code> space. Thanks again, I will also work on the other tables on the page and fix them up too.

== Database in the background == | |||
Hello Carmen, | |||
I just picked on a random Jr. Admin, hope you don't mind. I am getting back into the RPG gaming aspect of pokemon and am having fun trying to collect all the pokemon in the Gen 3 games. I am a database administrator IRL and I find that I would like to look up the information I want in a database format. Do you know if there is a background database powering the website at all? I would like to be able to query information to make lists of pokemon based on specific games or find all pokemon on a given route or things like that. I'd be willing to create a database of this information, but before I take on such an endeavor I'd like to know if someone has done it before me. | |||
Thanks, | |||

I think you've misunderstood, I changed the category to Ninja because Ninjas in incorrect. The plural of Ninja is Ninja, just as the plural of sheep is sheep, examples of this are even in the Pokémon games and anime.

:"Ninjas" is also correct. "Ninja" as a plural is used to reflect the word's Japanese origin, since Japanese words don't really differentiate between singular and plural (as far as I'm concerned). However, this is an English wiki, so we use "ninjas". If you would cite more specific examples of "ninja" being used as a plural in the games and anime, however, this would be a case more worth considering. --[[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> 15:35, 3 April 2016 (UTC) | |||

:Normally, descriptions for game mechanics, such as moves and Abilities, should be written in the present tense.

You can change it back, but please do mention (in the article, right after that sentence) that this specific effect can no longer occur because the Dream World shut down, since that fact is quite relevant. --[[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> 04:30, 20 April 2016 (UTC) | |||

== Making new pages == | |||
Hello Carmen, | |||
I think we should add more movie character pages specifically pokemon such as Latios and Latias from M18.--[[User:AshKetchumonfirex90|AshKetchumonfirex90]] ([[User talk:AshKetchumonfirex90|talk]]) 02:31, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[[User:AshKetchumonfirex90|AshKetchumonfirex90]]. | |||
:I'm not ''that'' up to date with the Pokémon movies, so I'm not the one to ask about specific Pokémon in recent movies. However, in general, movie Pokémon do not get their own pages unless they were the main characters in that movie or if their role was significant in the plot, as per our {{DL|Bulbapedia:Manual of style/Anime|notability requirements}}, point 6. If you believe that there ''is'' a Pokémon that does satisfy those requirements, you can create a draft of the Pokémon's page in your userspace (after becoming {{bp|Autoconfirmed users|autoconfirmed}}) at <code>User:AshKetchumonfirex90/<pagename></code> and then contact our Head of Anime, {{u|Pokemaster97}}, listing reasons why you think that Pokémon deserves its own page. --[[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> 02:44, 24 April 2016 (UTC) | |||
== The unaired episodes == | |||
I feel that since we know the basic important events from those episodes based on the trailer, they should be on the timeline so that people can know how the whole meteorite plot wrapped up. I added the note that they were not aired in the dub and later retconned out of canon, so does that help? {{unsigned|Lawrence}} | |||
:It's not our job to assume how events carry out. If the episodes never aired, then as far as we know (for 100% certainty), there is just a gaping hole in the plot, which won't be filled up until the episodes air (if they ever ''do'' air, that is). We can't do anything about that. We're not going to say that certain events happened if they were never shown to happen. --[[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> 16:50, 24 April 2016 (UTC) | |||
:: But we're not assuming anything, all the events I listed are things we clearly SEE happen in the trailer and read in official blurbs released about the episodes prior to being pulled. There have been cases of events being posted before episodes even air based on previews and common logic, so what's the difference here? {{unsigned|Lawrence}} | |||
:::Still, the episodes have not aired. The case with events being posted before episodes even air is that they are all commented out with <code><nowiki><!--</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>--></nowiki></code>. They then get unhidden ''after'' the episode actually airs. If [[BW023 (unaired)]] and [[BW024 (unaired)]] ever get aired, the events can get unhidden ''after'' the episodes air. --[[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> 17:01, 24 April 2016 (UTC) | |||
== Move images for "unreleased" moves == | |||
For moves such as {{m|Light of Ruin}} and {{m|Thousand Waves}}, would it be alright to upload move screenshots even if no Pokemon knowing that move has been officially released? For example, {{m|Thousand Arrows}} depicts {{p|Zygarde}} using that move, and [[Talk:Thousand Waves (move)]] mentions something about "obvious that it's intended for Zygarde". For LoR, on the other hand, the move is programmed into the learnset of Eternal Flower {{p|Floette}} (although that Pokemon cannot be legitimately obtained as of now). [[User:Chenzw|Chenzw]] ([[User talk:Chenzw|talk]]) 02:53, 14 May 2016 (UTC) | |||
:It's alright to upload them. You should aim to make the screenshots look as legitimate as possible, as in, have the move being performed by the Pokémon that the move is most likely intended for. --[[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> 03:33, 14 May 2016 (UTC) | |||
== Inconsistencies == | |||
Hello Carmen | |||
I have spotted some inconsistencies between the textgrids the "pokémons in other languages" and "berries in other languages" use. | |||
The ones that the pokémons use are much easier to edit and alter than the current ones the berries use. Does it mind anyone if I change all the "berries in other languages" to the ones the pokémons use and making it so the borders of the grids match the colours of the berries? [[User:Gerrie333|Gerrie333]] ([[User talk:Gerrie333|talk]]) 22:33, 15 May 2016 (UTC) | |||
:The {{template|Other languages}} template does not have a parameter for the English origin/meaning of names, so for the moment, the tables currently on the Berry pages will do. Also, the other languages tables on the Berry pages are not ''too'' hard to edit; they can be easily understood by observing the existing code and reading {{bp|Wikicode#Tables|this}}. --[[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> 23:24, 15 May 2016 (UTC) |
