User talk:Force Fire/Archive

Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Force Fire!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:

• For a basic overview of wiki code, see this page.
• The manual of style is very important. Make sure to read it. It outlines all official policies of Bulbapedia.
• The word Pokémon is spelled with a capital P and an accented é. The P, of course, is accessed easily by holding Shift and pressing the P key, while the é can be accessed using Alt + 130 or Alt + 0233 on a Windows computer, and Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can click it in the character palette below the editbox.
• The word Poké Ball is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a captial B (which is, again, accessed by holding Shift and pressing the B key). The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
• The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
• On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
• The use of link templates is official policy. For an explanation on their use, see the page on shortlinks.
• If you happen to spot a vandal in the recent changes that has not been dealt with, please see this page for how to deal with it.
• A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at this page. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found here, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found here.
• For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the anime, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as Brock's Happiny being held in his arms).
• Image uploading is done on Bulbagarden Archives, a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. You will have to register separately for it, as well. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and Bulbanews have access to the images uploaded.
• If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Force Fire/Archive/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
• Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
• A list of the admins that you can contact in case of a problem, can be found here.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here! Glinn Mgraw 04:20, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Brock means attacks from the sky, not flying type attacks. MathijsP

Oh yeah he did........ Looked like I wasn't paying attention. Force Fire

Stuff to remember

A few things to remember when making your edits.

• Use proper spelling and grammar. Even in trivia sections, you should write complete sentences that end in a period.
• Spell it Pokémon, not pokemon. The P is capitalized and the e has a weird accent. Like it says in the "Welcome" above, you can access this by pressing Alt + 130 or Alt + 0233, or you can use the character palette at the bottom of the edit box, or just copy the é from somewhere else on the site and paste it wherever you need it.
• When appropriate, use link templates. You've already started using these a little, but you should still make sure you understand when it's best to use which template.

You've done a good job contributing so far. Just be sure you pay attention to the Manual of style when you do it in the future. --Martonimos_((Talk)) 05:48, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Ok, Thanks for pointing that out, I usually forget to put periods at the end of a sentence.
