HEY WAIT

Welcome to my talk page. You can leave a message for me if you must. Try not to totally exhaust the 100KB limit I'm putting on myself before the end of November, okay? If you do I'll be putting a 200KB limit on in January. TTEchidna 20:02, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Abuse

Darknesslover5000 has abused the userspace a few times too many, even though there have been gaps in-between, so I've protected his userpage (and, if I understand how cascading protection works, also the subpage he keeps editing). Please move him to "abuse" when you get a chance. --((Marton imos)) 03:05, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Eh, cascading actually just protects all pages transcluded in that page. Meaning templates, mostly, but say we protect the list of episodes, it'd protect the individual OS, AG, and DP lists, since they're transcluded. TTEchidna 03:10, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Ah. Thanks. --((Marton imos)) 03:21, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Hey, do you think we should tell people who put fanfiction stuff in their userpages to check out the Pokémon fanon wiki? I mean, better them than us, right? --((Marton imos)) 08:56, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Possibly. That's kinda endorsing them so... eh. Plus ew, all the ads there. At least ours vanish on login. TTEchidna 22:57, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

...

Damn you~Ποκεμανιακα0β 15:46, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

But it's okay... I guess..~Ποκεμανιακα0β 15:46, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

episode 100

i uploaded the episode 100 image File:DP100.JPG and my question is why can't i use the image on the List of Diamond & Pearl episodes The image of choice is File:DP100.jpg

the image policy does not say anything about not using spoilers. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Archives:Manual_of_style

• If used in the articles for the episode or movie that the screenshot was derived from, avoid trimming the image. Screenshots for episodes should be 320x240, or failing that, in another 4:3 ratio. Screenshots for movies should be 426x240, or failing that, in another 16:9 ratio, assuming the movie is in widescreen format. If the screenshot is used in another article, such as a character profile, trimming is allowed to focus the image on the article's subject.

• Episode screenshots should be as informative about the episode as possible. The best screenshots focus on major characters, depict the plot or major events of the episode, and display the episode's animation quality. (Pikastorm 18:24, 2 November 2008 (UTC))

The image policy says nothing about image spoilers, yes, but do you want someone to ruin the episode for you with the first thing on the page? Besides, the major plot point was Torterra helping Grotle after it evolved, not Ash battling with it. TTEchidna 20:59, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

S.T.A.B.

On the Pokémon pages before it shows the moves the Pokémon can learn it states that if the move is in bold it gets STAB but at the end of the moves it states the same thing do you need to put that bold indicates STAB twice? - unsigned comment from MyUU (talk • contribs)

Eh, it's in every box mostly because I wanted a template to close it and wanted the template to be more than a simple |}. Besides, most people don't pay attention to anything written anyway, so a reminder doesn't exactly hurt. TTEchidna 20:54, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Arceus

Someone asked you...?~Ποκεμανιακα0β 21:16, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Someone keeps asking on the talk page. It's as if they don't pay attention at all. TTEchidna 21:26, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Remind you of anything? --((Marton imos)) 21:27, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Average Bulbapedia users: not the brightest lamp. It's why we need huge reminders to not ask stupid questions. TTEchidna 21:54, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Meh... thats why i wanna become an admin, i dont really ask stupid questions...~Ποκεμανιακα0β 21:58, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Average Bulbapedia users... OH MY GOID YOU INZULTED ME RAAAAGE!!!! *No, this is not my actual opinion, I'm joking* LordArceus 17:46, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Believe me, I can be far worse. TTEchidna 18:24, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Well, I'm glad you weren't, because if you had been it seems likely that an army of users with terrible spelling would begin to eat your userpage alive. :o LordArceus 15:59, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

A Question

What is the coding for the *TTEchidna is not here* and *TTEchida is here*?--DCM_{((Nag at Me!Edits))}

On the page. Experiment! Or check out the Parser Hooks on MediaWiki. TTEchidna 01:39, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

I couldnt find the coding in all that mess that is the coding of your page. and Parser Hooks?--DCM_{((Nag at Me!Edits))}

Help:ParserFunctions. TTEchidna 03:37, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Well, it's that time again

This admin nomination needs to be archived. ^Chocolate 02:01, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Done. TTEchidna 03:45, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Sell Price

I've been wondering if I should add the sell prices of TMs. It might take a while, but just making sure if you'll allow it. ^ht14 21:53, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Hell yes I'll allow it. Go for it. TTEchidna 21:58, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

OBAMA

YEAH! HE WON! WHOOOOOOOO!

FINALLY ANOTHER PRESIDENT FROM ILLINOIS!

GO OBAMA! NOW ONLY 76 DAYS UNTIL BUSH IS GONE TTEchidna 04:17, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

President from Illinois? I'm just happy to have a President from the world of the sane and logical! I'm looking forward to actually having a future in green jobs now. Hell, I'm happy having a future. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 05:27, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

You and me both. I'm actually once again proud to be American by birth, American by home, and to have voted. If Palin had gotten in... I don't think I could have survived this country for four, or more, years with her as either vice or President. TTEchidna 06:34, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

This user herd u liek Canada? (with Palin in the office, that national health care would be hard to resist.) -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 07:41, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Was thinking of going to Australia, actually, since there are echidnas there... but with the internets police coming in droves, from what Archaic says... eh. I'm just glad Obama won. It would not have been pretty otherwise. TTEchidna 07:48, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

You know what guys? You'll be proud to be American, I'll be proud to be Dutch. MathijsP 16:13, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

And btw; I think Obama is better then McCain/Palin. MathijsP 16:15, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Yayness! Obama forever! Actually, I'd have supported a donkey if it wasnm't with Palin. >.> But Obama is epic win. HikariTajiri 17:41, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

I'll quote you, HikariTajiri, sir... "Obama is epic win." LordArceus 17:43, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Stop attacking Palin, she deserved to win, but the Media teared her to pieces, what one this election for Obama, was the mass media coverage, things like Obama girl, and comedy's refusal to make fun of him, but ready to make fun of Clinton, McCain and Palin, if you look at it, Obama has no policies at all, just empty promises that mean nothing, there are huge holes in his plans, like where hes gonna get the money to do certain things, (other than tax Joe the Plumber) but no one seems to care as the media is totally backing Obama, and people seem to link McCain to Bush, due to the party --Guardian of Earth |SGMS 2010

I was quite happy that Obama won the election. TESHIGIGAS 21:18, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

I whated Him to win but I like in the uk os its not that unpont to me. ps that user box whih dirkcri on say something abot lieing wheres the tenpade GoldsWigglytuff

I'm also very happy about Obama winning. ^Chocolate 22:51, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

The best part about Obama winning is that the town of Obama, Japan is going to put a statue of him in front of the town hall.--Pokemondpdecoder 23:36, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Palin.

Did NOT.

Deserve to win.

I'll admit, she's done a lot for Alaska, but after seeing her on the national scene, I'm pretty convinced that's all she ought to do. Besides, remember, you're not voting for Palin; you're voting for McCain.

As for policies, Obama has some very clearly outlined stuff. You know he plans to make a national health care exchange? That's just badass. And it'll fuel the competition that's so important to fiscal conservatism. My conservative friend even admitted that, compared to Obama's stuff, McCain's policies were kind of vague. And in case you haven't been paying attention to the actual news, Obama's not after Joe's wallet. A McCain presidency wouldn't have been a disaster--loathe as I am to admit it, he's not exactly like Bush--but with Obama in office, we stand a chance of overcoming this crisis and getting back on our feet. --((Marton imos)) 23:38, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

And not nuking the world in case McCain didn't make it through four years, since Palin believes Jesus will come back if we kill the nonbelievers. TTEchidna 00:32, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Finally! After 8 looooong years of Republicans we finally have a person who KNOWS that the rest of the country is NOT in lalaland like Bush. Although I don't like McCain, I think that more people would have voted for him if he didn't pick Palin. Palin was not qualified and will never be if she continues her job as Governor of Alaska. And it's not just because the media "teared" her apart. Dialgarules 00:36, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Exactly. Palin actually implied that there were parts of America which hated America. If McCain had picked Lieberman, even, I'd have considered him. But no. He has to go pick Miss Kookoo from Alaska, who got blessed by her pastor against witchcraft. Of all things, honestly. It's not the 17th century.

Anyway, like the 17th century, I must go celebrate the foiling of the gunpowder plot. TTEchidna 00:44, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Pirates vs Ninjas

We have a (Pirates in the anime) category. Can we have a (Ninjas in the anime) category? Y/Y? Luna Tiger * the Arc Toraph 01:00, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

...oh boy. Well... ask some of the others. TTEchidna 01:23, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
