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! --^Psychic_Rider^☮ 17:04, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Hold on!

If you did not read your last warning, then please read it now. You have edited the User: namespace too much for now. Please do not edit your page any more for now. Thank you. --Turtwig A Contributions Talk 19:31, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Signature policy

Hi there. Per the Bulbapedia signature policy, you need to link your signature back to your userpage, and also include your username there. This will allow people to recognise you when you write on talk pages. Your name, rather unfortunately, isn't "I am the Void", so please amend this. If you need any help, just ask. Cheers. —darklordtrom 00:52, 12 September 2009 (UTC) thanks for reminding me. I was having toruble figuring out the code to make it lik to my userspace, but I think i got it to work now.--[[User:Mtn otter|I am the Void]] 01:11, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

first off, your signature has to reflect your username in some way. In other words, it can't read "I am the Void". Also, to get that link to work, either check the raw signatures box, or remove all the content in your signature box to get a default signature.--Dark ICE (User:Cold)^{(page, talk)} 01:15, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

I'm trying to make it say both, I read the policy as long as I have my name in it I can say whatever else I want. trying new template this time.--user:Mtn otter I am the Void 01:23, 12 September 2009 (UTC) Ok I got it to work, hopefully I wont change it again any time soon.--user:Mtn otter I am the Void 01:24, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
