HAIIII

cn u c0Rret MAI grandma?SweetLaplace (talk) 22:35, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

Wha...? GrammarFreak01 (talk) 07:24, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
Uhhh... I think s/he wants you to correct his/her grandma's grammar. Maybe. JoeRunner (talk) 22:10, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
Yeah...no. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 02:41, 27 June 2019 (UTC)

The word "against".

Dear GrammarFreak01,

Please end your determination to get rid of the word "against" across articles. This isn't a necessary edit and would definitely be considered useless. PardescanSlowbro (talk) 23:49, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

Just a reminder that these kind of edits where you're zeroing in on just one word and changing that one word is considered unnecessary. I personally don't mind either wording of "X battled against Y" or "X battled Y". If it's consistency you're after, I don't think it's that much of an issue if one articles uses "X battled Y" and another uses "X battled against Y".--ForceFire 05:46, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
But I've never heard "X battled against Y" being used outside of this site. "X battled Y" is unanimously more prevalent from what I've read. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 06:00, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

SM128

I'm not sure if I've said this before, but you shouldn't do what you most recently did to SM128's page again. Links need to be to what they're related to. If Hau's Dartrix is mentioned, it needs to be link to HIS, not the Pokemon as a whole. It is not about every Dartrix, but Hau's and Hau's alone. That's not how linking goes here. Playerking95 (talk) 11:00, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

I know for a fact that those kinds of links are frowned upon. I think BigDocFan was the one who got in trouble for that. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 11:02, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
If it has a page, then yes it should link to Hau's Dartrix. If not, then it links to the species page. I'm pretty sure I've told this to one of you two.--ForceFire 11:53, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
I think you told BigDocFan that, but I don't exactly remember. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 20:24, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

Your userpage

Gen 8 came out ages ago iirc. your userpage is old. - unsigned comment from Alivebacon (talk • contribs)

Uhhhhh...no... GrammarFreak01 (talk) 19:46, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
Grammar's right on that. Gen 8 is coming out in November. (You might be thinking about Gen 7. I confuse them sometimes too because their numerals are so similar.) JoeRunner (talk) 22:05, 25 June 2019 (UTC)

Undoing my edit SM102

Why did you just undo my edit? PokéSean 23:33, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

Not notable. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 23:34, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you for helping me. Is there a way of communicating with people on the site other than this or am I doing it right? :) - unsigned comment from Mega Growlithe (talk • contribs)

AG176 mistakes

What could I do more better and did you really think Butch left off-screen? PokéSean 19:30, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

Removing clears

Please don't remove clears ({{-}}) for no reason. They exist to prevent images from a previous section interfering in the following one. They're particularly important for left-aligned images. For example, this is why clears are important. --SnorlaxMonster 10:26, 5 July 2019 (UTC)

Nothing was being interfered on my screen, though. It was just leaving an unnecessary space. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 10:28, 5 July 2019 (UTC)
Your screen isn't the only screen on which people view pages. Furthermore, clears shouldn't create any additional space unless they are clearing something (as long as there aren't excess new lines around them), which indicates there was something on your screen that needed clearing if you were able to observe a difference. --SnorlaxMonster 10:33, 5 July 2019 (UTC)

League Conference

My edit to the League Conference page was not "insignificant". Torpoleon (talk) 16:55, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Your recent edits

I was told to not undo rewording to edits, because that is edit waring. So you shouldn't be undoing my rewording. You can't keep rewording everyone else and then not allow people to do the same to you when they feel it's necessary. Playerking95 (talk) 19:23, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Sorry. Just trying to be consistent with other articles. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 19:24, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

James T-Shirt

Should not the reference in the shirt to James' Chimecho be mentioned in his article? They did this at the time when Jessie brought an Arbok flute. https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Jessie%27s_Arbok#Trivia Hikaru Wazana (talk) 21:29, 07 July 2019 (UTC)

I think those bits of trivia are more important and appropriate for the episode articles rather than the Pokémon articles. Will be removing the Arbok examples now. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 22:12, 7 July 2019 (UTC)


In fact I find these references and quotations more interesting than trivia like "Pokemon x is the first of someone to do thing y" or something of the sort,

because are things made for those long time fans who keep their eye on details, but ok.-- Hikaru Wazana (talk) 22:25, 07 July 2019 (UTC)
