Hi

I noticed you have been editing the User: namespace a lot recently. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a Userspace policy that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Instead of making multiple edits, why not use the Preview button (Alt + Shift + P) located right next to the edit button to look at your page and see how it is coming? That way, your page can look great while staying within the required amount of edits. Instead of editing the userspace, as a wiki, we encourage users to edit the mainspace. So, if you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit the userspace more. Thanks! --ケンジガール 00:44, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

I just replied to your email, Maxwell. Hope that clears things up for you a bit.
A notice to anyone else watching; Maxwell's edits were spent trying to figure out how userboxes work. I've given him some sample code so he can put up the ones he wanted; no need to warn him for his next edit, I've told him he can put that code up so long as he doesn't edit his page anymore for today. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 00:52, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for the info but, I can't edit my user page. Can anyone help me with this problem? - unsigned comment from Maxwell37 (talkcontribs)

What exactly is stopping you? Does it give you some sort of message? As far as I can see, you've got the permissions to edit your page, you might be running into a simple error. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 20:12, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

It says this: You tried to edit a section that does not exist. Since there is no section 0, there is no place to save your edit. Return to User:Maxwell37.

Click the green edit tab, not the link on the right of the screen. Because your page is blank, the RHS link will not work. —darklordtrom 23:13, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Oh I got it now thank you!

What do you mean?
