Hey guys, it's FEBRUARY, the month of LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV. So why not show me some and let me keep this talk page until March. Or April. Or maybe, possibly, May?

Block

I was going a bit outta control on RexRacer's talk page, so can you please give me a 30 minute cool-down block? I need to cool down. 0° 03:02, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sure thing man. TTEchidna 03:08, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

...

Can you make this? Template:Movelist/body/special/2 It'd be real nice. Thanks! ht14 03:08, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Done once more.--MisterE13 03:23, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
OKAY DEN! TTEchidna 03:26, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
By the way TTE, on the other archive, when I asked you to change the example here: it didn't come out clearly. There has to be a space and dash between "None" and "fieldmove".--MisterE13 03:32, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
...I don't understand why. That requires you to put the space in yourself... TTEchidna 03:34, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Go to MAGNEDETH's talk page. Too lazy to overload your page. I need to figure out issue. ht14 04:19, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
*indiscriminate facebeating* TTEchidna 04:20, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. ht14 04:21, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
It still shows: and |} on there... ht14 04:22, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Web 3.0 had better supplant the need for these assloads of templates that only I can seem to figure out by the time I'm 30. TTEchidna 04:23, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Or you could teach it to one of us... ht14 04:24, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I learned by looking at the code that was left before me. And teaching over the internets is sorta hard. TTEchidna 04:25, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Oh. You should suggest it to those who are actually good at it. ht14 04:26, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
You can get good at it. Just take a look at it. TTEchidna 04:38, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. Eventually, I'll be able to be in charge (whoa!) and move on as well as help out. ht14 04:40, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Threatening to take my job? B&. TTEchidna 05:40, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

A little late... but TTE, the thing I keep asking you to fix is at the bottom of the page. There is an example that shows people how to use the template. It needs to have a space and hyphen between the words "None" and "fieldmove"! Also, the instructions should also include such a note for all the moves without power levels.--MisterE13 21:56, 3 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

You know what to do to it better than me. Fix it. TTEchidna 04:16, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
All done. That turned out complicated.--MisterE13 22:05, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Jioruji Derako used Tackle on TTE's talkpage.

It's super-effective.

Oh, and you should look at this. Testing seems to work out fine. As a bonus, if you dig through the coding, you'll see a commented-out bit of coding that would allow for a small "target" variable. It's a little rough, which is why I'm not including it currently, but a possible idea for the future, if we decide to standardize that information in the infobox. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 13:52, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Okay. How's about the anime template I made up? TTEchidna 21:46, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Colors

I don't know if I like it so much. Like why is it white where the Japanese title is? Are the colors going to be different for every saga? --ケンジガール 02:18, 3 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Why is it white where the Japanese title is? I figured that separating it would be fine. And yes, they will be. On my subpage at EpInfo. TTEchidna 02:20, 3 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Movie Template

How are we suppose to add home video dates to the new movie template? --HoennMaster 16:41, 3 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Uhhhmmmm... In the... way with the variables that I didn't pass through before but which are passed now so go include them. TTEchidna 19:00, 3 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Administrator Status

In order to keep our Administrator list currently up-to-date, this is a generic "are you there" message.

You've been assumed as currently alive (by technical standards) and are already marked as such, but if you disagree with this, either edit the List of administrators to reflect your status (Dead, Alive, or Something Like Schrodinger's Cat), or reply here when you get the chance. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 16:14, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Oh I totally disagree. Because I'm totally never here. TTEchidna 22:26, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
But if you're not here, then obviously you didn't leave the above comment. I'll have to wait two weeks for the real TTE to speak up. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 22:46, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Whenever he shows up to archive his talk page that gets used as the community messageboard... TTEchidna 22:47, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
...I certainly don't know anything about a "community messageboard". And I certainly haven't contributed to what you speak of. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 22:51, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
If you say so. TTEchidna 22:52, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

This is LOL. --ニョロトノ666 00:23, 20 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

<noinclude>

What does it do and where should one use it?--MisterE13 22:09, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

One should use it on a template when they don't want a specific part of the template to appear elsewhere (This is hard to explain) For example, if I put <noinclude>EXPLODE</noinclude> on a template, and one put it somewhere else, "EXPLODE" would not show up.--freezingCOLD (page, talk) 22:12, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
It's just as if you were restricting it to one place. 1337Fire ►strike! 22:14, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
It's for categories and stuff that should only appear on the template's page. The opposite is <includeonly>, which causes stuff inside to appear only on pages that the template is included in. TTEchidna 22:25, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
So like if you wanted to show an example for how to use the template on it's page but obviously not wanting it to appear when the template is used.--MisterE13 03:12, 5 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Exactly. TTEchidna 03:43, 5 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Galm's comment

Im sorry for taking a style from a different site, i will delete it as soon as i can. can the item picture before the item's name still go on?- unsigned comment from Galm (talkcontribs)

It's already been deleted, though. As for the item pictures... those were kind of... eh. We're gonna be restandardizing them soon anyway, and don't forget that some items don't have bag sprites. And sign next time! And don't upload sprites as jpgs. TTEchidna 22:21, 6 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Yo dude when is my abuse period over, i didnt even know how it got there. Galm 21:03, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

"=" template

Jio explained the principals of why it would be important and since we already have "!" (for "|") I thought it could be both useful and doable. I'd make it myself but I'd rather have someone else decide what to name it.--MisterE13 23:06, 6 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Just name it... =... TTEchidna 23:08, 6 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Except that uses the symbol which defeats the purpose of having one because in calling the template, you have to type "=". It would have to be something like "Template:--" (for the two lines) right?--MisterE13 00:11, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I think having the curlybrackets prevents the template from thinking the "=" as a real thing. The ! is different because we can't have Template:| apparently. - unsigned comment from Sol (talkcontribs) 00:14, 7 February 2009
I'm confused. What's the template supposed to call anyway? TTEchidna 00:19, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
The template calls an "=" because apparently one cannot use that in a Switch expression thus using it in the name would be pointless.--MisterE13 00:33, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I'm pretty sure that {{=}} ought to work fine. It's the name of the template, not a field, so it shouldn't confuse the equal sign for anything. --((Marton imos)) 00:36, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
There, see? Typing in {{template|=}} didn't work as a link to the template page, but {{template|{{=}}}} gets us {{=}}. Equals signs act screwy in template fields, but this template gets them working fine. --((Marton imos)) 00:39, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Aslkdsn how could I forget to sign. Kinda ironic though, that you have to use the template to link to itself. XD ~ sol 00:43, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, I know. When I tried it the way you would any other template and it didn't work, I thougth maybe E13 was right after all. But then I realized that it was because of the reason we were coming up with the template in the first place, so I got a cool chance to demonstrate its functionality completely on accident. --((Marton imos)) 00:48, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Ah, so that's what you wanted... As long as it has a use. TTEchidna 02:44, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Help when you get a chance

List of Japanese voice actors

Can you make it so those three tables are the same size? Thanks ~♥ --ケンジガール 05:10, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Just put in the table opening "width: (size)". TTEchidna 05:14, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. Oh and Jmath wants the Animecharacters template unprotected for some reason. --ケンジガール 05:31, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Eh. Tell him to wait until August. TTEchidna 05:33, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hope you don't mind...

...{{EventAvail/h}} and {{EventAvail}}. See Shaymin for example. *tc26* 09:37, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Heh? How're they used? TTEchidna 09:53, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
It lists in what events they're available in basically. *tc26* 11:43, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Username

I need a new username. I don't like mine anymore. I want to be renamed "Mamoswine Gliscor". Can you do this? --Juan Sanfiel 8 February 2009 15:33:46 (UTC)

You need to give a legitamate reason for the username change other than I dont like it *DCM((Mock MeEdits)) 15:41, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
How about, it gives out my real name and I am a bit foolish of what I did. I don't like that to happen.--Juan Sanfiel 8 February 2009 16:55:00 (UTC)
Thats a great reason. GIVE HIM NAME CHANGEDCM((Mock MeEdits)) 17:00, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I agree... most people won't remember that it's you unless you re-direct your old name to the new one. Just a thought Pyles 22:19, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I am still waiting. Since 10:33 am I was! Juan Sanfiel - Blah, Blah, Blah 00:00, 9 February 2009 (UTC) (or Mamoswine Gliscor)Reply
I guess TTE is not on the computer... hope you can get it changed soonPyles 00:14, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Jeez, guys, I'm not a freaking robot. I have a life too, ya know. Anyway, being namefagged by yourself is no good idea. So you're sure about Mamoswine Gliscor? TTEchidna 00:33, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Positive Juan Sanfiel - Blah, Blah, Blah 00:35, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Okay then. Gimme a minute to work. TTEchidna 00:38, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Why didn't you just get Bulbabot to do it? oh, wait he was beaten with a shovel by DCM :P Pyles 00:52, 9 February 2009 (UTC) P. S. I'm sorry but I don't really get the Bulbabot idea anywayReply

Botty doesn't do renaming. Too complex for him. He just adds interwiki links. TTEchidna 00:54, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I get it. He is you, right? Pyles 00:57, 9 February 2009 (UTC) I'm sorry, I'm too stupidReply
Botty's just programming which I can log in as to screw with people. TTEchidna 00:58, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
While we are on the topic, can't we add an auto-welcome function?--Mew a.k.a. Prmatt11 at 00:59, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
We could but eh, it seems kinda impersonal if it's automatic. TTEchidna 01:03, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, I felt really welcomed when it was from another user. This was by the way a short while ago. If it was automatic, then the new user wouldn't know anybody. I happened to have PhoenixGraphix as a real-life friend so it wouldn't matter to me Pyles 01:54, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Do we need a welcome to be Heartfelt? WE already use a bland, automatic welcome, so i doubt it will scar people to much if it comes from a robot. And how did you know about the shovel!!DCM((Mock MeEdits)) 02:18, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

I saw the shovel a while ago, but I still remember DCMPyles 17:13, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

EpicodePrevNext color schemes

I've went ahead and added two more color schemes available. These schemes were added while I was converting the PrevNexts on the Pokémon Special rounds. The two new schemes are Yellow (used in Yellow chapter rounds such as PS041) and FRLG (used in FireRed/LeafGreen chapter rounds such as PS268). If you can think of better colors for those schemes, go ahead and tweak them. --Shiningpikablu252 18:34, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ack, I was actually intending for there to be a SpecialPrevNext. Ah well. TTEchidna 21:48, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

AIM

I have an AIM now. Wanna chat? 0° 20:50, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

He's not on, but I am if you want... MaverickNate 20:53, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Additions to the edit buttons

I don't know if it's possible, but I think it would be beneficial to add a couple of buttons to the top of the edit window. Perhaps: "{{}}" (for templates) and "{{|}}" (for link templates) hope this helps and is doable.--MisterE13 23:11, 10 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

It might be, but that'd be getting into the css rather than anything else. TTEchidna 23:20, 10 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Speaking of templates, do you think this is a good idea? I think I got every sensible combination possible, and if there has to be more people can use multiple templates. There's a demonstration on the page's talk page. ~ sol 23:40, 10 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Good, but I'd wonder where it could be added where it's not already hardcoded... TTEchidna 04:42, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Hmm... Guess you're right. I'll leave it for now, though, in case it might be used later. ~ overgrownsol 23:08, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

They're done!

I got some help from Jioruji Derako and the Unown Trozei and Gen II templates are all done! The best part is that they're both self contained so no special codes to put when they're implemented to the side games/sprite templates (They already display exceptions for ! and ?). Template:Side game/Trozeiyes/26formes
Template:Sprite/2/26formes

There are still several other templates I had made that have not been implemented yet so if you have the time/the inclination and need a refresher on what they all are, I'd be glad to help.--MisterE13 01:59, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yes please. TTEchidna 04:43, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

MisterE13 16:08, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Oy. Side games... TTEchidna 23:10, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Implementing them all would be fairly simple I should think, they work exactly like the other sprite templates do except you have to implement them here: Template:Side game--MisterE13 01:21, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, though the sprite template's no walk in the park to screw around with. TTEchidna 01:56, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Wow, now that I understand the code, it seems even more complicated. Still, it should be a copy/paste ordeal. If it helps, none of the Unown ones use variables for the forms.--MisterE13 02:38, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
That's a relief... TTEchidna 02:38, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Ya know, I could probably do them myself if you unprotected them. Or maybe in my sandbox.--MisterE13 22:09, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Noooo... the sprite template is VERY fragile... I can hardly edit it sometimes... TTEchidna 23:23, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, I just tried in my sandbox. It is fragile.--MisterE13 01:29, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I'll get to it as soon as the Overgrow upgrades begin. TTEchidna 01:49, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Are there any more such updates? I'd be glad to help.--MisterE13 22:53, 14 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
They're coming down the pipes. TTEchidna 02:01, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
So the Overgrow upgrades have begun. (*Points a few points up*)--MisterE13 03:02, 18 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Indeed they have. I'll be on it soonish. TTEchidna 03:56, 18 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I also just made Template:Sprite/4/2formes/1mini. Mostly because the way we have it set up now includes the minisprite for bloomed Cherrim (which doesn't exist) but also because it showed bud AFTER bloomed. Now, you can just put this into the sprite template and make it not ask for the minisprite.--MisterE13 18:54, 1 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Anime

Which user here (In your opinion) knows the most about the anime? I had a question, which I will post here so someone else could answer.

When was the first episode with a gen 4 pokemon in it aired in Japan?

Vib 21:18, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Episode DP001.--☆Coolピカチュウ! 21:27, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Actually AG117, but Munchlax also appeared in Destiny Deoxys. — THE TROM22:04, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I don't know jack about AG, but OS and DP hells yes. TTEchidna 22:37, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Happy Bulbapedia Anniversary!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think today is your anniversary. If so, have a good one! Telme 03:06, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Tomorrow. 2/14. TTEchidna 03:07, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Permission for switch

I've figured out how to work it, so can I help?--Mew a.k.a. Prmatt11 at 17:35, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Name change

Just asking, but could I get my username changed? I would like it to be "J-J-M" without the quotes. Jmath 20:38, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

You need to give him a reason, I think. 0° 20:40, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
"JMath" is the name of a freaking CAS (Computer Algebra System) which I had no idea until now. Jmath 20:49, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
...so? What's wrong with that? TTEchidna 23:41, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
It just isn't original, that's all. Jmath 20:58, 14 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
There's more than one person whose online name can be shortened to TTEchidna. TTEchidna 04:57, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Oh c'mon, TTE, just this once? After all the time I've been on the 'pedia, it's the first time I'm making a request like this to anyone. I probably won't ask for a name change again for a long time. Jmath 23:17, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Well, if you're really sure you want one... I can't deny you. I just... think it's not that good of a reason. So are you absolutely sure? TTEchidna 23:18, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I am. And thanks. Jmath 23:25, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Just a quick question...

As an admin on Bulbanews and a staffie on the forums, should I be something on the 'pedia?--Mew a.k.a. Prmatt11 at 14:56, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sorry for butting in, but probably not. You were only made admin on the news because of vandalism, and Politoed666 has been trying to stop users for getting admin status for that reason, (so technically, you kind of shouldn't have been made one in the first place) and we have too many administrators on the pedia now anyway. MaverickNate 17:23, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Completely understood. Just pay close attention to your talk pages, admins! I'm here almost 24/7! I'll report thy vandals, and killith thou evilness!--Mew a.k.a. Prmatt11 at 14:33, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

How...

TTE, you know a lot about this site. How can you customize your signature?Alec9 20:16, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

My preferences. Signature. Make sure to turn raw signatures on. Then it's whatever wikicode that doesn't include linebreaks. So no templates. TTEchidna 22:19, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Template updates

Here. Comments? Suggestions? ~ overgrownsol 22:28, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Eh. *shrug* I'm not the only one deciding. What's everyone else think? TTEchidna 22:33, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Nothing important

Just look at your last edit:

  • (diff) (hist) . . Talk:Ditto (Pokémon)‎; 04:36 . . (+493) . . TTEchidna (Talk | contribs | block) (→Title: )

You added 493 characters in your comment. The same number as the amount of Pokémon in the dex, ;) --ケンジガール 11:41, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Might I add that it's the same number of creatures that Ditto is (because of Transform)? ←{Berrymaster|Talk|Contrib}→ 01:39, 17 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Actually, Ditto can be any of the 28 Unown, adding 27, both formes of Shaymin and Giratina, adding two, all four of Deoxys, adding three, the other Wormadam and Burmy, adding four, the other Shellos and Gastrodon, adding two. So all in all that's... 527. TTEchidna 03:55, 18 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Manaphy steps to hatch

I know the egg has been out for a reeeeeeeeeeeaaly long time, but should we add that the longer the egg is in Ranger, the shorter it will take to hatch?(P.S. I'm a new user but a long time lurker!)Leafstorm151 23:05, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Template:AvailabilityGlitch2

There's something wrong with this template. Yesterday, I added a noincluded category to get it out of the uncategorized templates; however, today I went into the uncategorized templates and saw it was still there. I don't know what piece of coding is causing this. Is it possible for you to find what's wrong and get the template out of uncategorized? Thanks. --Shiningpikablu252 16:58, 18 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

It's categorized now. for some reason the category would not work being on the same line as the table code. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 17:02, 18 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
That's because someone didn't close the table when making it. TTEchidna 00:49, 19 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Something new!

In my latest attempt to demonstrate polyformality, I've done some tinkering to Template:Moveentrytm: User:MisterE13/template:Moveentrytm. Feel free to play around with the variables but I'm 99% sure it works. Rotom might stretch tables a bit too much but hey, Rotom stretches a lot of tables. I can fix the other Moveentry templates later if this is approved. (BTW, it's so we don't get things like all 4 Deoxys in the same table with the same level learned or the always annoying 2 seperate Shellos). Unfortunately, some of the things are hard-coded to show the Normal form if you put in the number. Also, Rotom's forms do not seem to be coded in at all which could be unhelpful for showing moves learnt by one of them.--MisterE13 02:13, 19 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well, how's it work with those? TTEchidna 03:44, 19 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Heya TTE. I'm now the Project Leader of Locations and I was wondering if I can put an award scheme/system on to encourage users to edit more location articles. It will be just like the Golden Bulbasaur Award, where every month a user, who is doing the best contributions, will relieve an award like the Golden Bulbasaur Award. But instead, the award can be kept on the project page, and it will be given out by me. Think it's a good idea?--Clarky13 13:59, 20 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Permission to insert false information?

Theryguy512 said you basically gave him permission to insert false information onto Mankey, basically allowing the redirect to be converted to a disambig that lists that Ash caught a Mankey in EP029 before it evolved into Primeape. Anyone with half a brain knows that the Mankey evolved and THEN Ash caught the Pokémon, hence saying Mankey was a Pokémon that belonged to Ash before evolving is false information. (A Mankey that Ash did catch in the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga is unrelated to the Mankey in question, and is not notable for its own article because it was quickly traded away for a bogus map.)

This wave of false information even spread onto Spearow. Ash caught his Electric Tale Fearow directly as a Fearow, yet a recently-converted disambig implies that he caught it as a Spearow and then it evolved into a Fearow. The truth is that Ash has never caught a Spearow in any canon, yet the disambig lists Ash's Fearow evolving in a similar path as a Pokémon Ash tried to catch in the anime but failed.

I don't see why someone would think you'd willingly give them permission to insert false information onto Pokémon redirects...--Shiningpikablu252 16:21, 20 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

actually, i told him he could, however, i didnt think he meant a Mankey disambig, i thought he meant a redirect of Ash's Mankey, which i didnt know already existed. it was a mis-understanding. -- MAGNEDETH 20:36, 20 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

So?--DRAGONBEASTX 11:02, 23 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Archiving is personal preference. Do it whenever you like, there is nothing right or wrong as long as you move the page instead of copy/paste.

Template stuff

Could you put a SUBST: (with includeonly tags) before the "#if:" parser function for {{unsigned}}? So that when the template itself is SUBSTed, then the parser function stuff itself doesn't show up.

Alright, thank you. ~ overgrownsol 05:00, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Well, the parser is pretty much unused. There was an argument earlier here about timestamps being used with {{Unsigned}}. I believe it was pretty much made clear, that using the {{{2}}} that is in the template was a complete waste of time. So, maybe we should just obliterate the {{{2}}} on the template all together, seeing as it's use is pretty much unnecessary. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 08:00, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Template:TMPrevNext

I've went ahead and whipped up this template for use in the TM articles, but I'm having a bit of trouble hacking the wraparounds. Simply put, I'm having trouble looping the left side to 92 for TM01 or the right side to 01 for TM92. Since you're a far better template hacker than I am, is it possible to hack the template to make the loops I'm looking for (or even possibly to allow the template to be used for HMs as well)?

Awards

Why are the Administrators giving out the Award of "worst page"? I find it unnecessary and rude to the user. Awards should be something a person will be proud of. Anyway, this is an encyclopedia for people who love Pokémon. So a person has a "bad" page. So what? Pyles 23:39, 1 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Because it's not just "bad", it's BAD (as in, all capitals, bolded, italicized). So bad that it's easy to believe that whoever made the page didn't try at all. Some of the terrible pages do not even relate to Pokémon at all. So in conclusion, this award is usually only rewarded to people who do not take a large interest in effectively editing Bulbapedia, and so will not care deeply when they receive the award. ~ overgrownsol 23:47, 1 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Oh, yes it does. You obviously were not reading carefully enough. Read the section titles 'Article titles'.

That is absolutely not what it refers to.
It doesn't mention why it's wrong because we're an encyclopedia, not a damned dictionary. There aren't "151 POKEYMANZ" in RBY. Charmeleon's Diamond dex entry. Clearly refers to it as the plural without an S. EP025, Oak mentions that Gary's captured "30 Pokémon". No S.

Deoxys wouldn't work on a four-second cycle because the form isn't RANDOM. It's specific. Arceus works on an eighteen-second cycle because it's got so many damned forms. I'm not putting it on an eighteen-minute, or eighteen-hour, or eighteen-day cycle, because then MORONS WHO CAN'T READ (we get far too many here) will be all "OH ARKEYS IS NORMAL BETTER CHANGE IT".

Unless, you know, you meant the base stats, in which case, why didn't you say that!? As for Burmy and Wormadam, Shellos and Gastrodon, I'll get to them EVENTUALLY. TTEchidna 03:14, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Okay, so now we see that echy needs a break before he kills anyone. Base stats are now hiding according to form. Check out over the next week if it works fine, and I'll implement it on Rotom, Giratina, and Shaymin's pages too. TTEchidna 03:37, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for understanding, and sorry for replying so quickly...I have a bad habit of that...M-DETH yelled at me for that... ht14 03:40, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Template:Infobox game

Can you take a look at this? What do you think? Good? Bad?--Sher-e-Bengal- 12:21, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Erm? What am I to look at? Also, attention shoppers, Voldemort kills Snape. TTEchidna 01:35, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ah, using the colorscheme template. Good. But. Could be bad if we keep the colorscheme templates with their current scheme. It only works for Red/Green, Gold/Silver, Ruby/Sapphire, Emerald, and Diamond/Pearl. Others we'd need a new pairing for. TTEchidna 03:08, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
OK. I changed it a bit. What do you think of it now? See the talk page for an example.--Sher-e-Bengal- 05:39, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
That is very glaring. TTEchidna 05:43, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
The colors? That's not the fault of the template, is it? Any changes that you suggest? You can edit it.--Sher-e-Bengal- 05:46, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Well, since not all of the games even follow a scheme, I'd say make it color-neutral. TTEchidna 08:45, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Water Pulse! Super Effective! User talk:TTEchidna is confused!

Sorry for the long title, but... yeah. Since I'm too lazy to retype, here's exactly what I asked Shiningpikablu: "I know that there is the "wait until it airs" policy, but does it have a page like the signature policy? If it is, can we add it to the welcome message? If not, can we make a speculation policy AND add it? I dunno if today was a particularly bad day, but the gun-jumping with Staravia/Staraptor was pretty annoying and may be somewhat avoided by adding a mention to the welcome. Then again, I may be the only person who actually read the welcome message. "

He then redirected me to you. The Dark Fiddler - Is teh Pedia laggin 4 u 2? 23:17, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Wait someone jumped the gun with Staravia? Anyway, if there's no policy page, then yes, in fact, hell yes, make one up and we'll look at it and improve it. TTEchidna 01:38, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
No. Just Staraptor...and Ash...and DP118, naturally...I requested Staravia/aptor protection from SP252. --PsychicRider 01:40, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
WOAH. I can make it? ZOMG. am I dreaming/misunderstanding? *Goes to look at other policy pages for a guide* The Dark Fiddler - Is teh Pedia laggin 4 u 2? 01:47, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Also, where should I make it? The Dark Fiddler - Is teh Pedia laggin 4 u 2? 01:57, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Make it in your userspace and put the Bulbapedia proposed policies category on them. ~ overgrownsol 01:59, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Okay, I made it... I really think it's short, and messy as messy can be, but... yeah, that's why you said you'd improve it I guess The Dark Fiddler - Is teh Pedia laggin 4 u 2?
Simple enough, really. We'll take a look at it all together and add to it. TTEchidna 03:09, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Srapator is here

Hi .As now the new movie poster has revealed that Starvia is going to evolve in DP118 so you can unprotect those pages. --Prongs 05:42, 6 March 2009 (UTC)PRONGSReply

Could be later, no unprotect. ΘρtιmαtumTalk 05:45, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
No. Posters are not evidence. Staraptor appeared in the preview for DP066. No evolution. Monferno and Staraptor could easily belong to movie characters. TTEchidna 08:47, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
