== Fan Fiction ==

I don't know what you mean by adding the wikilinks, I was just doing what I had seen other people do on their own pages. Besides, I know it's not proper, but I like it to be titled "Pokemon Unlimited" even with the wrong "e". I haven't really done much on it all and I just made the entire thing out of boredom during Christmas time. Again, are you saying I added links of my stuff onto actual pages? I don't remember doing such a thing because I know my stuff isn't real. [[User:Conanfan1412|Conanfan1412]] 05:17, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
:The issue was that you put in a main namespace link for your fanfiction.  Now, if you wanted to make something about the fanfic itself, the page would be best off as "User:Conanfan1412/Pokemon Unlimited", not just "Pokemon Unlimited".  Fanfiction is unacceptable in the main namespace, and all fanfiction articles in the main namespace are quickly deleted.  I had to remove the links because those links caused your fanfic to jump to number 7 on the [[Special:Wantedpages|wanted pages]] in the last update.  I hope you understand.  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 15:11, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Do you think you can finish {{u|Lime}}'s template stuff, fix her sig, and fix the tags on her userpage? thanks!! ''[[User:Moldy orange|<sup style="color:#4B5320;">'''Moldy'''</sup>]][[User talk:Moldy orange|<sub style="color:#ED9121;">'''Orange'''</sub>]]'' 00:29, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

:Just to note, it's one of the userboxes that's messing up Lime's page; I haven't narrowed down which one it is, but it's not the first one at least. (if you edit and remove all but one userbox, then show preview, the page unbreaks. Just need to remove the boxes one-by-one and show preview until you figure out which one's breaking it.)
:I took care of Lime's signature while I was at it, by the way, so no need to do that one. I'll let Lime know to fix her current signature as well, if she hasn't already. --[[user:Jioruji_Derako|<font color="#237d00"> '''J'''ïörüjï '''Ð'''ērākō.'''>'''</font>]]<small>[[user talk:Jioruji Derako|<font color="#237d00">''.cнаt'''''^'''</font>]]</small> 08:12, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

I really don't think you should be doing that. Many of those articles are not prone to vandalism. Also, many of those articles are edited and need to be edited every day, like if a new episode is revealed and that Pokémon appears in it. It's like you're blocking nearly every user from editing the Pokémon Species. If you're doing that, you might as well do all 493 of them. Plus, this website has users that can undo them if they were vandalized. I suspect that this will lead to a downfall of the articles'''[[User:Pokemaniac102|{{Color|FF0000|Po}}{{Color|FFFF00|ke}}]][[User talk:Pokemaniac102|{{Color|00FF00|Ma}}{{Color|00FFFF|ni}}{{Color|0000FF|ac}}]][[Special:Contributions/Pokemaniac102|{{Color|FF00FF|102}}]]''' 19:49, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

== May Protection ==

Yd u protect [[May (anime)|May]]? Cassius just oesn't know what initial means an keeps reverting this:

::When May initially reappears as a guest character, she appeared in five episodes, compared to the two episodes Misty appeared in for her guest appearance during the Hoenn saga. However, Misty also appeared in four [[Pokémon Sunday]]/Chronicles specials, an option not available to May. Though Misty traveled with Ash from [[The Scheme Team]] to [[A Real Cleffa Hanger]], they are different arcs, thus don't count towards initial reappearance episodes.

What's wrong with that?  He keeps saying that I say they don't count because I don't ant them to.  Could you please let the page be vulnerable again?--[[User:Kuki|<span style="color:#b00000;">Kuki</span>]][[User talk:Kuki|<span style="color:#2c40a4;">Ta</span><span style="color:#049440;">lk</span>]] 18:46, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

:Sorry.  As far as I'm concerned, Cassius335's edit is how it should be.  If you'd even bothered to read that version, you would have clearly seen that he DOESN'T consider Misty's Battle Frontier appearance as initial, which is what you were claiming.

:Additionally, even if I were to agree with you, I wouldn't be lifting the protection.  We've had problems with a number of gun-jumpers recently trying to add information not 100% confirmed to pages, and given that [[May's Squirtle]] is supposedly to appear evolved in the next Japanese episode, odds are that the page probably might have ended up protected anyway for that reason.  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 18:50, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

== Burmy, Shellos etc. - Forms ==

I'm still confused as to why the TCG card pages for Burmy, Shellos, Wormadam and Gastrodon only use their forenames and don't include their forms. Shellos East Sea and Shellos West Sea, for example, are different Pokémon - they need to be classified as such. That's how they're named on the cards and how POP classifies them. I know there's an issue there with Mothim, but it's simple: split [[Burmy (TCG)]] into three sections, allow Wormadam to link to the respective section, and Mothim to the whole page. Your thoughts?

== [[Rotom (TCG)]] ==

Hi there, can you sort this out for us? Check the page history to see what it is. I don't think that there should be ''any'' mention of a Psychic-type Rotom until (''IF'') it happens. Moldy Orange's argument is that it ''will'' happen and so it ''should'' be mentioned. I strongly disagree. There is absolutely no evidence that there will be a Psychic-type Rotom. Any ideas on what should be done about this? [[User:Double Dash|Cipher]] 11:23, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

:Rotom is far from the only one that has multiple types listed even though only one type has actually been used.  For example, even though Tentacruel has only shown up as {{TCG|Water}}, there's always the possibility it could one day show up as {{TCG|Grass}} to reflect its {{t|Poison}}-typing.  Dual-types (with the possible exception of the {{t|Flying}}-type) should always take both of their types into account, even if no cards of one of them have been printed.  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 19:13, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

::The English-language games (and I'd assume all other languages that use Roman alphabets, such as German or Portuguese) allow player character names to be only seven characters long.  NPC characters are allowed more (for example, [[Flannery]] at 8 or [[Crasher Wake]] at 13 counting the space), but player characters are restricted to 7 characters or less.  This means that, out of all released game versions, only "{{v2|Sapphire}}" (8) and "{{v2|LeafGreen}}" (9) wouldn't fit into the character limit ("{{v2|Platinum}}" would also not fit into the limit at 8 characters should that name hold--I'm certain it won't, odds are its final name will be "Girasol" (7)).  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 21:08, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

{{u|Pachirisulover12}} suggested this on [[User talk:Kuki#Oh my god...|Kuki's talk page]]. Maybe it'd be a good idea to mention the userspace ban in the [[Template:welcome|welcome message]]. I know most people don't bother reading it, but this way, anyone who does would know not to ask "Y CNAT I EDIT MAH USERPAGE???" If you included an explanation of why, they'd probably avoid clogging up the recent changes with Talk Page edits, too.

On that subject...... it's my fault {{u|Sailor Earth}} started this, so I want to fix it hard and fast, before more people start getting ideas. Perhaps we ought to institute a new policy of not putting userpage content on a user talk page, and crack down on anyone who violates it. Maybe it's a little harsh, but like I said, I want to stop this mess before it gets out of hand. Considering that it seems to be spreading already, I think it's important that we address it quickly. --[[User:Martonimos|<font color="#008000">Martonimos</font>]]<sub>[[User talk:Martonimos|((<font color="#00FF00">Talk</font>))]]</sub> 21:21, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

:The action was done to prevent abuse of the User talk namespace.  Trust me, if people saw you making those kind of edits to the User talk namespace, those people would get ideas that it's OK to abuse the User talk namespace while the User namespace is locked down.  If unchecked, such an action would cause a chain reaction ultimately leading to a similar lockdown for the User talk namespace, resulting in standard users not having the ability to leave messages.  This, in turn, would let vandals such as a {{u|Ph34r}}, {{u|WillyOnWheels}}, {{u|Jsmith}}, or {{u|JohnnyRebel}}, have their way with pages due to the lack of ability to contact sysops.

It was originaly on the project space but Porygon-Z moved it to my talk space, so we thought it was alright to do it there.

:The User namespace was locked down to all but sysops in late March.  This was because many users were making edits only to the User namespace, using it for stuff such as a {{wp|blog}}, {{wp|Myspace}}, or {{wp|Pogo.com|gaming hub}}, causing not only a lack of edits to encyclopedic articles but causing whatever edits did get made to those articles to be overshadowed.  These userspace edits were large in number, often contributing to a server lag.

:Apparently, at one point, it was decided that "enough is enough".  Userspace editing to all except sysops has been stopped since then.  There was, of course, an uproar over this, so much that Bulbapedia's April Fools' joke for April 1, 2008 was making people think the userspace had been deleted (using a technical quirk that had been exploited by [[User:JohnnyRebel|a vandal]]).

I uploaded it here for use in the World Championships articles, but in hindsight, they only need to use Top 16. Cheers much, [[User:Double Dash|Cipher]] 08:37, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

== Question. ==

Would creating a project page at [[User talk:Martonimos/Relinks]] be acceptable under the current rules? It would involve me moving the content from the "Move link project" and "Questions about redirect project" sections of my {{ut|Martonimos#Move link project}} to the page, re-divided up into "Content" and "Discussion" sections. The "Content" could be moved to the user page itself when the ban is lifted (I don't want it moved before, as it's something I'll need to change occasionally). So what do you think? I wanted to make sure this wouldn't be seen as getting around the ban, since it technically ''is'' userpage content on a user talk page. --[[User:Martonimos|<font color="#008000">Martonimos</font>]]<sub>[[User talk:Martonimos|((<font color="#00FF00">Argh</font>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Martonimos|<font color="#50C878">Blargh</font>))]]</sub> 19:24, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

:Sorry, such an undertaking would probably fall into trying to get around the userspace ban.  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 21:01, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

== Sinnoh Starters==
Um is it ok if I put different art of the Starters (It's from Platinum) and TTE said "No, it seems like new art like we got with Emerald for the Johto starters. Separate it into three and put it in the infoboxes. TTEchidna 21:36, 20 June 2008 (UTC)"

== TCG: Japanese Half Deck Templates ==

Well, I was doing the Intense Fight page and related pages today, and upon adding it to Template:Japanese Half Decks, I decided to have a play-around with it to try and clean it up. As such, I've created two separate ones, which I've put on [[Bulbapedia:Sandbox]]. They're right at the bottom - let me know what you think. Any suggestions to change 'em, go right ahead, as I think these'd be better than putting all half-decks into one box. Cheers, [[User:Double Dash|Cipher]] 21:23, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

:That could possibly work.  However, I'd wait until TTEchidna gets back, run the idea by him, and see what he thinks about it before taking any action.

:Just for the record, the {{TCG|5th Movie Half Deck}} wasn't released during the EX series.  Its release date puts it between {{TCG|e-Card 3}} and {{TCG|e-Card 4}} from the previous series.  I'd probably split the movie half decks into their own infobox for consistency--after all, they all technically fall into the {{TCG|VS}} style.  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 21:30, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

::Sounds good, I'll ask him later in the week then. I've split the movie half decks into a separate infobox if you wanna check it.

::Actually, talking about the e-Card sets, I had an idea about a week ago, but I'm unsure whether or not it'd be a sensible idea. I considered, and actually tried, merging the e-Card 2 and e-Card 3 pages into the Aquapolis page (didn't actually implement it, of course, just did the page code in Notepad), as well as the details. I managed to get it to actually look decent in the set infobox, and I've put that infobox in the sandbox with the other infoboxes, 'cos I'd appreciate comments on that as well. I'm just unsure if it'd be a suitable merge. [[User:Double Dash|Cipher]] 22:10, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

::Looks like I forgot to put that up in the Sandbox last night. It's now in there. [[User:Double Dash|Cipher]] 14:59, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

:::::We actually did have a link templates for items at one time.  The template was one of the one-letter ones, I (it has since been deleted).  Problem was, the link template redirected to a messy page that was basically a very long list of items ([[List of items by type|it has since been retooled]]), and not even a complete one at that.  Given how items are nowadays splattered over a selection of articles, I'm afraid a link template for items isn't exactly viable.  You're best off using the redirects, such as [[X Sp. Def]], [[Old Gateau]], [[Rare Bone]], or [[Cherish Ball]].

What, exactly, do you have against it? The pages for many moves are titled {{m|SolarBeam}}, {{m|AncientPower}}, {{m|ThunderShock}}, and the like, so why do you change them to Solarbeam, Ancientpower, or Thundershock seemingly whenever you get the chance?

He's gone around inserting "-30" into all the weakness sections of old sets.  It's self-evident that the resistances were -30, because ''all of them were until {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}}''.
