Link templates

are a contributor's best friend. Instead of linking articles at, suppose a move, rather than do [[Hyper Beam (move)|Hyper Beam]], use {{m|Hyper Beam}}. It saves time and page space! For a near-complete list on the link templates, look here. Thanks! |>H1|23•57R1K3 22:16, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I initially thought of doing that, but it looked weird in the edit summary. I tried doing it the other way, and that didn't really work that well either :) Will do in the future though. Kevin Y (talk) 22:19, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

I appreciate your concern, but...

...it's a sandbox. You're obviously new, so I'll explain: sandboxes are for screwing around and doing whatever you want.
