User talk:Trainersurrel0409

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Trainersurrel0409!

Thank you for joining our community! By creating an account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. This is a brief introduction to Bulbapedia's rules and resources to help you get started: All users are expected to follow the code of conduct and to be kind to one another. If you have a question, check out our FAQ; the manual of style provides detailed editing guidance, and the wikicode page provides details about how to use wikicode. You can always ask for help by contacting a staff member. Please preview your edits before saving them; this helps you double-check your changes and reduces the need for repeated minor edits. Use talk pages to discuss changes and resolve editing disputes. Creating a userpage is allowed after you've added to the encyclopedia; for more details, see the userspace policy. Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~) so people know who is commenting. This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment. For more handy links and information, check out the welcome portal.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here!   FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 14:23, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

The Preview Button

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 14:23, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

Arceus (game)

Please stop repeatedly making this edit. If you don't even plan on putting in any content, it adds zero value to the page. TehPerson (talk) 06:49, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

Spelling mistakes

Hi, please remember to review your edits for spelling mistakes before publishing them. "Wich" is technically an English word (though very archaic) and might not be getting picked up by your spellcheck for that reason, but you mean to write "which". Minibug (talk) 21:47, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi again, please remember to check your spelling or use a spellcheck before committing edits, as I noticed you're still spelling "which" as "wich". Minibug (talk) 00:13, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

Giratina (game)

As stated in the article itself, it is unknown if Giratina in Diamond and Pearl, Platinum, and Legends: Arceus are the same entity. Without that connection, I don't think Giratina (game) is suited for the mainspace. That being said, instead of deleting your article, I'm moving it to User:Trainersurrel0409/Giratina (game), where you can edit it to your liking as a draft. - Chosen (Talk) 18:07, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi there!

Just a few tips based on your recent edits.

1.) If you didn't know, Ability is always capitalized. Also, the manual of style has a helpful section listing common capitalizations as well as other sections that I think might be useful to you.

2.) I'd advise not to use piped links in the way that you did in this edit. Editors shouldn't have to open a link to find out what is being referred to, and mobile users are not able to hover over the text to check either. Additionally, multiple links right next to each other are difficult to distinguish. Instead, try to link in a way that is transparent about what is being linked to.

3.) I'd just like to give you another reminder to preview your edits for things such as spelling and grammar mistakes, and to consider editing a page all at once rather than editing by section. This keeps edit feeds such as the page history and recent changes cleaner and easier to track.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me or another staff member. We're here to help! Landfish7 05:05, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

As mentioned previously, please remember that the word "which" is not spelled "wich". Landfish7 20:31, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Oh i'm sorry, as far as i've seen, both which and wich work the same way. Trainersurrel0409 20: 43, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

As minibug mentioned previously, "wich" is a real word, and therefore will not be flagged by spellcheck, but it's an archaic word and has a different meaning than "which". You will likely never need to use the word "wich" in any context, so always include the 'h' i.e. "which".Landfish7 20:56, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Link templates

Hi, I noticed you tend to use a lot of piped links, things like [[Terapagos (anime)|Terapagos]], but we have a lot of templates that can quickly link to pages like these. As an example, instead of the above, you can write {{an|Terapagos}}.

The full list of link templates can be found at Bulbapedia:List of link templates.

--Minibug (talk) 12:10, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

I've noticed you're still using things like [[Elio (game)|Elio]] and wanted to remind you we have link templates to make things like this easier and more compact -Minibug (talk) 00:04, 7 December 2023 (UTC)

Here's a link to an explainer about link templates that should hopefully make it clear what they are and why they are so important to Bulbapedia's style: Bulbapedia:Link templates. Hope this helps. Landfish7 00:23, 7 December 2023 (UTC)

Trainer class

Hi. Just thought I'd let you know, Trainer classes are the titles that Trainers have when battled. If a character is never battled, such as Professor Magnolia, then they do not have a Trainer class. Landfish7 00:27, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Removing info

Hi, to be clear this is not an official warning, but just meant to be a helpful tip. When editing pages, try not to remove or simplify info unless the info you're removing is confirmed to be incorrect or agreed by the wiki community to be unnecessary. If you're not sure, you can always ask about it on the talk page of the relevant article, or you can ask a staff member. We like to try to include as much useful info as possible, so while it may be seem helpful to condense and simplify the way information is displayed, we want to make sure we're not losing anything of use in the process. I hope this helps, and feel free to ask me if you have any questions. Landfish7 12:58, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

The Preview Button, again

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 09:59, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Sorry, the problem about it is that there's no option to edit a whole page in the phone, only a section at a time, weird right? Trainersurrel0409 (talk) 15:13, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

There should be. If you don't find one, try switching to desktop view and try again. See if that helps. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 15:18, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

If you want, there's an option in the mobile website's settings, where you can turn on "Advanced editing". It will show an edit button for the whole page. See mw:Reading/Web/Advanced mobile contributions for more. → PikaTepig999 20:20, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Ok i'll try Trainersurrel0409 (talk) 21:14, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Archives talk page

You have not responded to any of the posts on your talk page over on Bulbagarden Archives. Have you read them? --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 21:31, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

Just want to emphasis this message, if we leave messages on your talk page, we would like a response because if you continue, it looks like you are ignoring us.--BigDocFan, Junior Admin Bulbapedia (talk) 09:38, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

Would appreciate your response in on your archives talk page. → PikaTepig999 18:46, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

Oh? Ok sorry, i actually never got notified by them, i didn't even know i had those. Trainersurrel0409 (talk) 20:07, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
