Please...

You've been making too many edits to the User talk: namespace lately. Please take your conversations to the forums, a chatroom, e-mail, an IM service, or something similar, as that many edits will slow down the server. --^Maverick_Nate 20:40, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Oh is my face red. Look at me all abusing the user talk namespace on five other user's talk pages and my own. Man, thanks. I'll think twice about carrying on a discussion that will not end until I win...--P S Y_ライダー☮ 23:59, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

CharacterDex Question

Um, in light of the last section, I hope I won't be causing a problem, but this IS what the CharacterDex page said to do. Recently, I've noticed that pages like N's have all his quotes from everywhere, whereas Brendan didn't have any quotes before I added the Match Call section. What is the official CharacterDex policy? Personally, I prefer having all the quotes, but I was wondering which was considered better. :) Ikarishipper900 23:51, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

I agree. I think it would be better to have quotes for all game characters. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 23:59, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Okay cool thank you. :) I can start getting quotes for some characters, but what I'm wondering now is would it be better for me to gather all the quotes from the whole game and then put it on the page, or put the quotes up as I go and put an incomplete template or something like that? The second would be easier, but I want to be sure that's okay. :) PS: Could this get added to the to-do list or something if we want the quotes? That thing hasn't been updated in.... Over a year, actually. (I apologize for asking a ton of questions. >__<) Ikarishipper900 23:11, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

No problem. You can tag them with incomplete and just use the reason "needs quotes" or something. Every little thing helps. And yes, I can add that to the to-do list. Cheers~ --P S Y_ライダー☮ 02:34, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Confused...?

A user by the name blastoiseboy19 created his/her own page. I believe that one is not allowed to create a user page for him/herself. I'm guessing all the people with authoritiy missed this? Han Ji-Wan 02:36, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Users are allowed to make their own userpages and edit it once a day. If he does over edit, then we step in to protect it. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 03:27, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

I think you misunderstood me. I meant to say that he/she created the page when he was not allowed to.. Do you get what I'm trying to say? Han Ji-Wan 04:24, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

I'm not following you, sorry. He made edits and followed the rules, so he was able to create his userpage. I'm not sure exactly what you mean though. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 04:29, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Okay, how exactly does one user get a user page and become an official member? The red link for the username becomes blue, and that shows that that user has become a member. It seems to me that blastoise19 created his page. I thought that only users of a higher authority, like you are allowed to create user pages for newbie members to like what I am now. Perhaps I'm not understanding the whole thing here? I hope this clears everything up for you so you can clear my confusion. Han Ji-Wan 05:16, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Once you register, you're an "official member". The redlink means that the userpage is not yet created. Once the user has edited enough mainspace pages and is autoconfirmed, they can create the userpage. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 06:05, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing up my confusion. It's just that I have seen some users create user pages on their own and get immediately undone by others. Han Ji-Wan 06:09, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Might you have been thinking of users who create it in the mainspace?--P S Y_ライダー☮ 06:48, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Woah. I looked at a random talk page and see my name. Yeah, I had a little chat with the dark lord trombonator and I got *cough*indirect*cough* permission to make a user page... user tags were just the coolest thing a week ago for noobs. :D Blastoiseboy19^(Talk) was here at 19:43, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

MenisPuncher

I don't know if this name is appropiate or not so I thought I'd tell you about it. --Pokemaster97 19:35, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

I just welcomed him, sorry. I wasn't thinking for a minute if it was appropriate or not... :( Pokabu82 19:38, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

It's alright, we all make mistakes. They've been blocked but allowed to make a new account. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 19:43, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

?Why?

Why did you protect me from editing my page?!?!? - unsigned comment from DrBrock (talk • contribs)

Because you did not read the one a day edit policy. Although, looking at the page history, I mistakenly used the wrong protection time. You can have it back, however, one edit a day, or you will lose it again. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 21:29, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Final Gambit

Hey, could you reply here concerning my undone edit, I think it's just a misunderstanding of what "Final Gambit will not faint a Pokémon with Sturdy." means though. Pikiwyn ^talk 18:31, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Alright, thank you. I've replied~ --P S Y_ライダー☮ 19:44, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Question about additional personal pages

Hi! I want to ask if it is allowed here on Bulbapedia to create some more personal pages (besides my Main User Page). I mean to create sub-pages of my Main Page. Something like this: User:ATEMVEGETA/test page.

If this is allowed then can I create as many pages as I want? (I want to create a page for each Pokemon Glitch). Also can I put pictures and videos in those pages?

Also, what is that one-edit-a-day thing?

Thanks! ATEMVEGETA (Talk) 12:33, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

I don't know how many more you can have actually, but there might be a limit, as Bulbapedia would probably not like 30 subpages, however, you can create that userpage. The one a day edit is in place because the servers are wonky from the Black & White rush and as such, limit to the userspace is to try to prevent server stress. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 16:11, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

.png move

hey, can you move b.PNG to b.png, i forgot to change end of name, all windows computers do that for some reason :P --×Rsrdaman× 02:50, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Yes I can, and it's been done. :D --P S Y_ライダー☮ 03:21, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Paul's Drapion

I put the protect template on Paul's Drapion's page after it was changed to a redirect as it just lost its notability status and there may have been edit conflicts. PattyMan 03:48, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Then just ask a person to protect it then. Otherwise, the redirect is broken. Ataro 04:00, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

I don't feel that it's a pressing matter at the time. If someone does try to revert, then action will be taken. Until then, it should stay unprotected. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 04:02, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Just a thought

hi there, i only made an account to voice this tactic, i am thinking that in the Justified ability section you can include the beat up tactic for a double battle. The best thing to do is get a weavile which knows beat up, or chain breed a charizard like i have done, then use beat up against your own partner in a double battle. I use cobalion and i play online, with 4 people, so his attack with go up 4 stages(as beat up attacks the same number of times as the number of pokemon in your party) and from here on that pokemon, cobalion being quite fast and now will extremely high attack power, will sweep the other team easily. I didnt want to keep this to myself so hopefully it will be made known by you editing or creating a page? thanx 4 listening.Solar 09:42, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

It might be a good strategy, but it won't get put on the page. We're an encyclopedia, not a strategy guide, so we don't have strategies on the pages. Werdnae (talk) 09:45, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Sorry...

Sorry about that. Won't happen again! ISB 19:48, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

It's alright, just try to contribute more to the article itself. We get a lot of trivia daily and we're trying to cut it down to a very minimum for right now, hence the current trivia ban. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 19:51, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Just to tell you

this_wiki has copied templates from Bulbapedia. Anything to do about this issue? Plan an attack like we did on 2008-2009 on The Pokemon Wiki. Slipknot Darkrai 21:21, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

We do not attack, we will try to talk with them and get them to change it. --P S Y_ライダー☮ 21:27, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Then why don't we talk and make a friendly agreement to that seeing that it is illegal. Slipknot Darkrai 21:45, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
