ARCHIVE THIS TALK PAGE, IMMEDIATELY!

Congrats!

Wassup! It's been many years, but if you remember me, we used to work together here on Bulbapedia! I just stopped by to say congratulations on becoming the new lead of Project Anime! It's a really big accomplishment! --:--SuperAipom7 (Ask me anything!) 02:54, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

I do remember you, thank you for taking the time to leave a few kind words! Hopefully this message means I'll be seeing your name on the RC more often again. --Pokemaster 97 17:46, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Sorry to be a drag...

But at the risk of being told of for edit warring, http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Anime_move_errors&curid=31434&diff=2447240&oldid=2447228, this guy needs some help getting started. I'd explain it to him my self but I have to go to bed; thought I'd leave it with the governor Diamond Lanturn CodeName: 05308 21:53, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

It seems that some of my colleagues have addressed it already. Do let me know if things persist though. --Pokemaster 97 05:23, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello!

Congrats Pokemaster! Can I be your friend? I want a welcoming, cause I was in Inkipedia as GogglesKunInkling --ワニノコゴーグル by GogglesKunInkling from Inkipedia (talk) 16:10, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Sorry about reverting your edits, Googles; I thought you were this vandal that kept doing something similar here, a lot. Unowninator (talk) 17:09, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Talk about a typo ワニノコゴーグル by GogglesKunInkling from Inkipedia (talk) 21:23, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Bulbapedia. Please make sure messages you leave me on my talk page are related to wiki-business only as that's what the talk pages are intended for. If you ever have any questions, feel free to direct them to me or a relevant staff member. Enjoy your stay! --Pokemaster 97 03:11, 22 June 2016 (UTC)

Top 20 Pokethon Countdown

Hey there! There is a page I would like to add about the anime. This was a marathon that Kids WB did back in 1999, in which kids voted on their favorite Pokemon, tallied the results, then hosted a marathon in which Meowth and Professor Oak counted down the top 20, and showed an episode showcasing each one. Here were the results, along with the episode the showed for each one.

20. Snorlax - Wake Up Snorlax
19. Primeape - Primeape Goes Bananas
18. Growlithe - The Case of the K9 Caper
17. Cubone - The School of Hard Knocks
16. Ponyta - The Flame Pokemon-athon
15. Butterfree - Bye Bye Butterfree
14. Psyduck - The Ninja Poke-showdown
13. Charmeleon - The Problem With Paras
12. Vulpix - Pokemon Fashion Flash
11. Meowth - Who Gets to Keep Togepi? (sadly this marathon aired a few weeks before Go West Young Meowth)
10. Raichu - Electric Shock Showdown
9. Eevee - The Battling Eevee Brothers
8. Blastoise - Island of the Giant Pokemon (again, I think this was JUST before Beach Blank-Out Blastoise aired)
7. Ditto - Ditto's Mysterious Mansion
6. Jigglypuff - The Song of Jigglypuff
5. Bulbasaur - Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village
4. Squirtle - Here Comes the Squirtle Squad
3. Charmander - Charmander, the Stray Pokemon
2. Charizard - Attack of the Prehistoric Pokemon
1. Pikachu - Pikachu's Goodbye

Hey there, if you draft up an article for it in your userspace, I'll be happy to look over it and mainspace it if everything looks good. Let me know if you have any other questions. --Pokemaster 97 17:02, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

Would this be notable for mainspacing?

I apologize for the crappy intro, but writing paragraphs has been one of my weaknesses. [1]. Unowninator (talk) 17:14, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

After some discussion with other staff members, we've unfortunately reached the conclusion that your page does not meet Bulbapedia's notability standards. We feel that that content would be better suited as trivia on the respective pages for the said moves and abilities. --Pokemaster 97 05:39, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

Sadly, I'm not allowed to edit trivia for a while due to repeated screw-ups. Well, thanks for telling me this anyway; now I can stop waiting. Unowninator (talk) 05:43, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

Charizard and Blastoise

Are the pages User:05308/Tierno's Blastoise and User:05308/Trevor's Charizard ready to get their own pages?--Reinhartmax (talk) 17:16, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Trevor's Charizard can be mainspaced. Unfortunately, I still feel that Tierno's Blastoise does not meet the notability requirements. "If a rival's signature Pokémon does nothing more than battle or has no major impact on the plot, then it is not notable for an article and instead should have a section on its Trainer's page." While Charizard didn't do much outside of battling either, it at least participated in the league, which I would consider plot impact. --Pokemaster 97 04:18, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Some lower staff member moved Tierno's Blastoise anyway. Is deletion eminent? --BlisseyandtheAquaJets (talk) 03:59, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

Only just saw this was going on; makes me feel important. If I'm honest, I would have thought it'd be the other way around, with Blasoise being notable and Charizard missing out. Both of them had roles outside of battle in the Summer camp: Pokévision and Orienterring episodes as well as being captured by Team Rocket before the Team battle (All of which I neglected to put on their respective pages) Blastoise alo had shenanigans as a Wartortle in Good Friends, Good Trainning and its recent battle in the Kalos leauge. It is my case that Blastoise should be mainspaced. Diamond Lanturn CodeName: 05308 07:07, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

Request

Can I request that you look into FinnishPokeFan's latest edits because he/she seems to be constantly changing my edits by rewording things when they were fine the way they were. I don't have a problem if he/she adds things that need to be added or fixes mistakes, but he/she seems to be doing this constantly lately and I'm sure that this is because he/she is targeting me. He/she seems to have a problem with me for a while now and apparently these rewordings are fine, despite the fact that they don't need to have reworded. Because quite frankly, I'm sick of being targeted like this. Playerking95 (talk) 14:17, 4 August 2016 (UTC)

As an example, he/she changed the description of Manectric using the move Electric Terrain in the anime and some of the edits added nothing new to it, but according to Tiddlywinks, it's completely fine to reword things, even though some of the edits were completely and utterly unnecessary. Playerking95 (talk) 14:19, 4 August 2016 (UTC)

Hey there. First, I want to start off by saying that when you first registered for Bulbapedia, you accepted that "all contributions to Bulbapedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.". I understand that having your edits altered or undone constantly can be frustrating, but the anime-related articles are often high traffic pages on the wiki, so it comes with the territory. Since both you and FinnishPokeFan are both frequent contributors to the anime section and the pages you edit often overlap, it's difficult for me to conclude that you specifically are being targeted rather than simply the subject of your edits. I've noticed that you and FinnishPokeFan disagree on quite a few topics, but I notice that majority of the time, you do not communicate with each other beyond edit summaries. If you disagree with actions that users make the best action would be reach out on their talkpage (or any talk page) and try to find understanding. If they refuse to engage with you after that, then we could try to look into taking further intervention. Reverting edits that you felt were unnecessary simply as a means of revenge isn't the best way to go about the situation either. The bottom line is, nothing policy breaking has occurred as of now, there's not much that can be done. Not everyone on Bulbapedia is going to get along and that's not a realistic expectation, but user feuds cannot get to the point where it becomes detrimental to the progress of the site. --Pokemaster 97 01:06, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

Main Space

Hi, I did this page [2], I would like to know if there any way she could receive approval for the main space.--Hikaru Wazana 14:09- 20 August 2016

I'm going to try to make a few adjustments to it and review it from there. --Pokemaster 97 03:19, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Anime Pokémon pages

Sorry to bring this to you but there is a massive back log of Anime Pokémon pages that I am certain are notable enough for mainspacing; User:Pattyman/Florges (anime), User:Pattyman/Meyer's Blaziken, User:05308/Professor Sycamore's Garchomp, User:05308/Diantha's Gardevoir, User:05308/Chespie, User:05308/Z2 and also maybe User:05308/Lugia (anime). Though some aren't quite up-to-date, I find nobody bothers to do much to a page that isn't mainspaced, besides, there are many mainspace pages that are not quite as up-to-date as they need to be (I mean anime Pokémon pages specifically).

I was also wondering wheather the anime counterparts of both Professor Sycamore and Lysandre should be given there own page? Diamond Lanturn CodeName: 05308 17:50, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

Clemont's Magnemite

I already brought this up with Force Fire but have not been given an answer yet and was told to bring it up with someone else. So I was wondering where you stood on Clemont's Magnemite. Notability rules say that Pokémon that are owned by Clemont are notable if they appeared in more than one episode and Magnemite has finally done that. So can the page User:Rahl/Clemont's Magnemite be moved to the mainspace?--Rahl (talk) 19:50, 11 October 2016 (UTC)

While Clemont's Magnemite does technically meet the notability requirements, the Editorial Board feels that Clemont's Magnemite in particular is not notable. It only had very brief appearances and we feel that there's not enough information about it to warrant a page for it at this time. If we were to mainspace it, it would most likely remain a stub and it's not very worth it. We are currently in the process of adjusting/updating the anime notability requirements so it will be more clear on what to do in situations like this one. --Pokemaster 97 23:45, 11 October 2016 (UTC)

Opinion

What you think this? http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Talk:Dawn%27s_Buneary#Gender_should_be_changed_to_.22unknown.22 --Hikaru Wazana (talk) 14:58, 30 October 2016 (UTC)]]

While it's extremely likely that Dawn's Buneary is indeed a female, it's Bulbapedia policy to abide by what the Japanese version of the anime refers to it as. Unfortunately, it's never been explicitly stated or confirmed that it is a female Pokémon on the original version, so that's how it should be referred to as in the article. There have been some situations in the past where Pokémon have been referred to as one gender in the original version and another in the dub, so doing things this ways ensures that the Japanese version will always take precedence. --Pokemaster 97 16:46, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

Side Story epicodes

The side story epicodes jump from SS032 to SS034. This has yet to be fixed. Legend040Legend040 (talk) 07:39, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

There's currently a plan to overhaul the epicode system for the side story episodes along with others. This will be a rather large scale moving process, which is why it has been delayed so long. It will be addressed in the future though. --Pokemaster 97 15:06, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Citations

Hey! :) Since you're part of the staff, I'd like to get your input on this. Thanks! :) MannedTooth (Talk) 23:18, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

Reducing clutter on Season

Hi there! I recently noticed that our Season page has a lot of unnecessary clutter — season boundaries only differed between broadcast and home video prior to the second Advanced Generation season, yet for some reason we list them separately even for more recent seasons. Since you're Head of Anime, I hope you're the right person for me to approach to suggest an alternative that I've created in my userspace: User:Pumpkinking0192/Season suggestion (and its accompanying template). I think this looks a lot better visually, and by my count it saves at least 600 bytes as well. I hope you agree. Thanks for your consideration. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 18:14, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

Hey! I'm currently away on a trip without much internet access until around next Saturday, but I will be sure to look into all of this when I return. --Pokemaster 97 18:40, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

Question about the Forum

I was wondering. I tried to log in to the forum using my Bulbapedia account, but I was unable to. Should I really not be able to log in to the forum using my Bulbapedia account (which would be weird since I can use the same account in the Archives), or am I having a problem? Ratcicle Fan (talk) 17:56, 19 March 2017 (UTC)

Hey there. So our Forums are run on a different software than the ones our wikis are, so your log in credentials aren't going to be automatically linked. You'll have to register a new account on the Forums under the same username if you'd like to have matching account names. Hope this helps! --Pokemaster 97 04:10, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Scyther, Excadrill, and Panpour

Hello. I was wondering if the pages User:Rahl/Bugsy's Scyther, User:Rahl/Clay's Excadrill, and User:Rahl/Cress's Panpour are ready to be mainspaced. Thank you.--Rahl (talk) 23:18, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

I'll be looking into these and making decisions on them as soon as possible. --Pokemaster 97 00:49, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

Thank you. Please let me know when you figure it out.--Rahl (talk) 19:18, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

It's been a while and I was wondering where your stance was on these pages.--Rahl (talk) 11:29, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay, I got busy with school and took a leave of absence for a while. Consider these three pages approved for mainspacing. You may feel free to mainspace them yourself. --Pokemaster 97 20:33, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

I've tried moving Panpour and Scyther but there is an issue because those pages already exist as redirects and I don't have the ability to delete them. Is it possible for you to move those two? Thank you.--Rahl (talk) 23:21, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

I passed that note to higher staff than myself and the pages have since been moved. I'm editing to change the above links so they don't appear as wanted pages. Let us know if you need any other help! CycloneGU (talk) 00:00, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

Thank you both for your help!--Rahl (talk) 00:13, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

User Page Editing

Can you tell me how to make borders around my text and how I can make them certain colors? Thank you.--BoltBlades12 19:17, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Two articles

Are the userspace articles, User:Pattyman/Wooper (anime) and User:Pattyman/Deserted Island (BW087), ready to go to the mainspace? Patty Man 00:10, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Hey, the two pages have been approved and moved accordingly. --Pokemaster 97 20:12, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Byron's Bastiodon

Is the page User:Rahl/Byron's Bastiodon ready to be mainspaced?--Rahl (talk) 19:51, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

After some discussion, we feel that Byron's Bastiodon does not currently meet the guidelines stated under our Anime Notability Policy. Gym Leaders may have an article about their signature Pokémon, but only if it did more than just battle in the episode(s) it appeared in and had some impact on the plot. . I understand some borderline ones were approved recently, but that's because their Manga or Game section was fairly expansive, but that's not the case here. --Pokemaster 97 20:12, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for the consideration. I'll just keep it around in the event that it does more. To save us both some time do any of these meet the requirments? If they do I'll make a page for them. Chuck's Poliwrath, Flannery's Magcargo, Gardenia's Roserade, Crasher Wake's Floatzel, Burgh's Leavanny, Elesa's Zebstrika--Rahl (talk) 20:48, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

No problem! Out of that list, the only one I really could see being possibly notable is Burgh's Leavanny, since it played a role in the eventual capture of Sewaddle. The others seemed like they really only battled and didn't do much else, so a vast majority of the info would be a rehashing of episode synopses. --Pokemaster 97 23:03, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

List of voice actors page

Should Pokemon Generations voice actors have their role mentioned on the page List of Japanese voice actors? Because there are quite a few voice actors who don't have their role mentioned on that page. Also would it be relevant for Takehito Koyasu and Yosuke Akimoto to have their own page? Because I'm planning to make a page for each of them and I believe that at least Koyasu would be relevant as he had voiced Butch in the Japanese dub of the anime but in Akimoto's case I'm not too sure if his role as Dr Fuji in Mewtwo Strikes Back, Birth of Mewtwo(Radio Drama) and Uncut Story of Mewtwo's Origin would be notable enough.Nikuriku (talk) 07:15, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

Yeah, Pokémon Generations VAs should have their roles mentioned on the List of Japanese Voice Actors page. As for the two voice actors you mentioned, Takehito Koyasu definitely meets the Project VA notability requirements. Dr. Fuji would probably fall under the recurring category so I'd be okay with Yosuke Akimoto having a page as well. If you draft up the two pages in your userspace I'll be happy to review/mainspace them right away. --Pokemaster 97 20:07, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for granting me permission for making the page.

The draft will be made for the two by tomorrow night from where I am.

Also I've been wondering on the archives page, how to contribute and get autoconfirmed? Because I'm not sure what to actually do to contribute as I'm under the impression that to contribute requires one to upload but since I'm not autoconfirmed I cannot upload. So is there a way to contribute without uploading? Thanks ahead.Nikuriku (talk) 23:49, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

One of the most simple tasks that you can do on the Archives without being Auto-confirmed is probably cross checking the Bulbapedia move log and editing the links of the image file description pages to point to the right page back on Bulbapedia. Here's a couple of examples: Example 1, Example 2. There is also a to-do list but it is admittedly rather outdated, but there may be a few things on there that would give you some ideas. I hope this helps! --Pokemaster 97 00:36, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

There are quite a few uncategorized files (https://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:UncategorizedFiles) and some of the wanted categories (https://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:WantedCategories) shouldn't be in there since they're just typos. --Pokemaster 97 00:37, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the information! Much appreciated that you have taken the time to give me tips and pointers regarding how to help out on the Archives page. I'll send an update here when my pages draft will be readyNikuriku (talk) 03:39, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

Finished the draft for the page Koyasu, so feel free to have a look. The Akimoto page is still currently being worked on. Also is there a way where all 'incomplete' stub messages can be viewed? Because I feel in the future I will be using them quite a lot.Nikuriku (talk) 10:35, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

The Koyasu page has been mainspaced. As for the incomplete stub messages are you referring to the actual categories themselves? These? Or are you referring to notice templates? As for the list you posted below, I'll give a reply once I've looked over the list a little more closely. --Pokemaster 97 23:17, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for main spacing the page. It feels great to be able to contribute to Bulbapedia. Also yes, I was referring to the notice templates so thanks for linking me to them. Another thing I would like to ask if the page is meant to appear on the category page of 'Japanese voice actors' out of curiosity? Also take your time with regards to looking over the list I made in the other discussion, just saying so you don't feel too pressured to look at it straight away.Nikuriku (talk) 02:48, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Takehito Koyasu Page

Hi, I've finished the draft for the page Koyasu, so could you please have a look over it to see if it is worthy to be mainspaced along with checking is anything is missing?. The Akimoto page is still currently being worked on. The Yosuke Akimoto page is still being worked on but will be ready soon to be looked over as a draft. I would like to ask if there is a way where all 'incomplete' stub messages can be viewed? Because I feel in the future I will be using them quite a lot. Also I would like to ask if the following voice actors would be relevant for their own article:

Yuichi Nakamura: only did N in the anime but he was a prominent recurring character who even travelled with the group for a bit so I believe he would be relevant
Takahiro Sakurai: May not be as notable but played a recurring role as Sandshrew in the anime and Watt from the AG series who appeared more than once
Wataru Takagi: Played Fergus from M01 and Vladimir in AG series who appears more than once in AG series
Atsuko Tanaka: Played Pike Queen Lucy and Lenora(who appeared in more than one episode, one being a gym battle and the other in another episode in person)
Rie Tanaka: Played Solidad and Mars who both had frequent appearances in their respective series(AG and DP)
Nobuo Tobita: Brycen who's appearances were both large in the episodes he appeared in
Kosuke Toriumi: Played Saizo who was prominent in the two episodes of appearance despite being COTD
Tetsuya Kakihara: Reggie who appeared numerous times throughout the DP series
Mikako Komatsu: Mairin who appears many times throughout the XY anime
Koji Yusa: May not be too prominent in terms of number of appearances but did play Drake(Orange League) who appeared twice during his battle against Ash
Fumiko Orikasa: Diantha the Kalos Champion who appears a lot in the XY animeNikuriku (talk) 15:08, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

Update on VA pages

Hi, I've finished the Yosuke Akimoto page on the userspace and when a time is convenient to you I would like you to review it to see if it's alright to be mainspaced. Thanks.Nikuriku (talk) 05:02, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Lillie's Pokémon template

Can you mainspace the User:Lockheedpryde/Template:Lillie's Pokémon template, as she now has two Pokémon with pages? Reinhartmax (talk) 18:49, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

Yeah, I'll mainspace it shortly. --Pokemaster 97 04:39, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

VA list

Hi, thanks to your help and advice I managed to get autoconfirmed so I came to say thanks for helping me. I don't mean to pressure you when I say this but when a time is convenient would you be able to have a check over the VA list I made in a previous post? Sorry if it sounds unreasonable but it's just so I can plan ahead and know which VAs will be relevant for pages or not. Nikuriku (talk) 13:06, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

Hello, while I am glad you are eager to contribute, please note that Bulbapedia isn't my full time job and that I work during the weekdays, I will make my best effort to respond to inquiries as soon as possible. From the list all are notable except Kōsuke Toriumi and Koji Yusa. --Pokemaster 97 04:39, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Ah, that makes sense. Sorry if it taken too much of your time but also thanks for taking the time to look over the page and for your efforts to respond so promptly. Greatly appreciated.Nikuriku (talk) 07:55, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Quick questions

Hi, I have a few questions I would like to ask regarding a few things,

Do voice actors have to have a biography? Because I noticed that some such as Aoi Yuki have a biography.
I saw that many voice actor pages have stubs on them. Is that because technically their roles are always expanding or is there some other reason?
Would Kensho Ono be worthy of his own page? He played Alain who had a major role in the XY series and the Mega Evolution specials?
Do edits to then userspaced pages count towards mainspace edits when they become mainspaced? And is there a way to count number of edits? Because I'm striving to become one of the top contributors of the month and just asking out of curiosity.
Following the previous question, would it be advised against to edit a large number of articles in a small amount of time such as over the course of one day? Just need to know so I don't cause server problems.
About the usertag "This user has beaten Bulbabot", can it only be used by those who beat Bulbabots number of contributions in one month?

Thanks aheadNikuriku (talk) 11:52, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

I'll try to break down everything you asked below:

Let me run this by the rest of the Editorial Board since it doesn't seem like there's ever been any established guidelines on that front.
Many VA articles have been marked stubs because traditionally stub pages are considered pages that are very short, which is the case a lot of the time for VA articles. However, this blanket application of marking them as stubs are probably something we should be getting away from moving forward. In the future, we'll probably go through and unmark the articles that are considered "complete".
Yes, he would qualify for a page.
Yes, when articles are moved to the mainspace those edits will be automatically adjusted and counted towards your mainspace edits. You can check your number of edits by going to the "preferences" tab at the upper right and then clicking "view global account info" under the user profile tab. However, this edit number will be your edits in total, userspace edits and all, I don't believe there is a way to view a breakdown of the types of edits (userspace, mainspace, etc) without very high technical administrative privileges.
No, we don't advise against it if they're all productive edits. The only concern would be editing a number of high-traffic templates at one time as that could crash the server, but most of those are protected from normal users anyway.
The Bulbabot usertag is for overall edits I believe, but I'll double check that for you. --Pokemaster 97 20:59, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Thank you! Information has been very helpful and advice is much appreciated.Nikuriku (talk) 01:59, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

Rotom Pokédex, Gyarados, and Helioptile

Hey, I made the pages User:Satsjoe/Rotom Pokédex (anime), User:Satsjoe/Lysandre's Gyarados, and [{{fullurl:[User:Satsjoe/Alexa's Helioptile}} [User:Satsjoe/Alexa's Helioptile] a while back, and I was wondering if they are ready to be mainspaced. Satsjoe (talk) 13:36, 30 June 2017 (UTC)

I've mainspaced Rotom Pokédex, apologies for the delay on that one. However, the other two pages don't seem to be that notable, so I won't be approving those at this time. Lysandre's Gyarados did nothing but battle and repeats what was said in the episode synopsis pages already. Alexa's Helioptile didn't do too much overall and the article seems more like a list of its appearances than anything. --Pokemaster 97 22:05, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

I understand. Thanks for mainspacing the Rotom Pokédex page. Satsjoe (talk) 22:38, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Of course! --Pokemaster 97 22:42, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi, it's me again. I meant to include this in my first post, but I totally forgot about it, sorry. So, I've also created this link template in my userspace and I was wondering if it could be used in the mainspace. If it's not suitable for mainspace, could you delete the page? Thanks. Satsjoe (talk) 21:39, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

It's been approved and mainspaced. --Pokemaster 97 23:48, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

I've a trivia question.

Hi, I wanted to thank you for removing my trivia ban. But I also don't want to repeat history, so I thought I should ask: are any of these good trivia? And is there anything I should know? (I can't really remember why I got banned in the first place.) ¿¡Unowninator?! (talk) 22:02, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

I'll look into these more closely and reply back soon. --Pokemaster 97 22:05, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

I bolded the ones that I think would be notable:

All of the Iron-Masked Marauder Pokemon, including Celebi have a quadruple weakness.
Spoink's badge bounces a bit in the Badge Arcade, whereas nothing else moves in its machine.
Hyperspace Fury is the only non Z-move move that breaks Protect which can hit all types.
RioLucariolu
Darkrai is the only Technical Pokkén character without a Mega evolution or a weakness against Ghost attacks.
- It is also the only non-Ghost type that can go through walls without an item in Mystery Dungeon.

*By giving Stunfisk an Air Balloon, it becomes the only Dual-typed Pokémon immune to both of its STABs.

Onix is the only Gigantic Pokémon that can still evolve.
The playable Pokemon in every Special episode is either pure Grass or pure Normal (not counting Igglybuff's eventual type change)

*Torracat is the only starter Pokemon to have a stat drop when it evolves. * In Pokémon Yellow, the game corner slots use Team Rocket's Pokemon.

Sandshrew and Sandslash are the only Pokemon not to share any weaknesses with their Alolan forms.

As for anything you should know, stay away from trivia (or any statements for that matter) that could be viewed as an opinion. Also avoid overly obvious trivia that may already be stated or easily seen from reading the article itself. I hope this helps some. --Pokemaster 97 22:42, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Huh, less facts than I expected to get approved, so I'm very glad I asked first. And no opinions, obvious facts, or anything mentioned eh? Good advice, thanks. ¿¡Unowninator?! (talk) 22:54, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Hey, I hope I'm not being a bother, but what about this one for Entrainment?

Despite the move involving Dancing in the description, Entrainment is unaffected by Dancer

I promise not to ask you for every single thing; I'm just playing it safe for now. ¿¡Unowninator?! (talk) 01:59, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

I'm going to say no. It's a bit clear that it's not the same type of "dance move" that the Dancer ability refers to. --Pokemaster 97 21:45, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

Bulba Handbook

Do you know where Bulba Handbook gets their information? I know for sure that not all of it's from Bulbapedia, because some stuff on Bulba Handbook isn't on Bulbapedia. If you don't know, who should I ask? sumwun (talk) 19:17, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

Sorry for the late response on this. As I was not the one who directly worked on the Handbook, I can't say where all of that information was originally found. What I can say is that the standards for the verification of sources are far higher on Bulbapedia than they were on the Handbook, which was a far smaller scale project. For more information, I can point you to the user Soki, who's more active on the Forums. I hope this helps in some way. --Pokemaster 97 22:07, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Hareta's Luxray

Is the page User:Rahl/Hareta's Luxray ready to be mainspaced?

Thank you.--Rahl (talk) 15:48, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

E-Reader Redirect

I have seen e-reader stylized as: smw:File:E-Reader North America Title Screen.png. That's why I created the redirect. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 20:20, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

I can see why you created that redirect, but Mediawiki (the software Bulbapedia is run on) is not case sensitive when using the "search" system/search bar. Therefore, "e-reader" would already automatically redirect to "e-Reader", because it's already reading the upper and lowercase "R" as the same. --Pokemaster 97 20:31, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

What about URL typing or the redlink that remains that I linked to for you? --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 20:36, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

I believe it's a safe assumption that a vast majority of our userbase/readers won't be searching for a specific page via URL. As for the redlink, I added the {{Red link}} template to it so it doesn't appear in the wanted pages. There's not a strong reason to keep that redirect. --Pokemaster 97 20:42, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

I got a middleground I think we can agree on. For the delete reason, link to e-Reader. This might require restoring the deletion and deleting again. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 21:18, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Deliveryman

Should I bother creating an article on the deliveryman as he just appeared in SM057 and he also appeared in many games and the Be the Best! Pokémon B+W manga? Patty Man 02:00, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

Sounds like it would be ok. If you create a page in the userspace, I'd be happy to review it. --Pokemaster 97 16:58, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Change username request

Hello, I just wanted to start to contribute in Bulbapedia, so before to start an new account registration, I just tried the option of recover password, then surprisingly I already have a registered account, but I don't use this nickname anymore... so I was wondering if you please can change my username to "Toramaru", or you just suggest me to de-attach my mail of this account and start over?... I ask this, because this account have a very "ancient" registration date... for me at least xd. Thank you so much! Ewainn (talk) 06:40, 12 June 2018 (UTC)9

Searching for arbitration on a dispute with an admin

Hello,

I looking for staff arbitration of a dispute about alleged sockpuppeting. A friend of mine (Doondook De Storm) was banned, accused of being my alt, and a notice was left on my page not to make more accounts. However, I did not create his account and I'm wanting to see if another staff member could look into the issue if anybody's got the time. A quick check of the IP addresses would show that we live in totally different countries.

Thank you and best wishes. Bogavante (talk) 21:50, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

Username change request

My username on Bulbapedia is Randomwaffle23. I despise this name, and I regret having ever been young and stupid enough to choose it for anything. On more than one occasion, I've had people assume I'm a new user who doesn't know what he's doing, even when my edits are constructive and in good faith. People figure they probably know better than someone named Randomwaffle23.

I don't want to be looked down on because of these kinds of assumptions. I don't want to be an eternal "new user". So, I'd like to have my account's username changed to Ardub23, a name which has fewer connotations (and which matches my username on various other sites). Or, failing that, I'd like to be permitted to create a new account under that name.

Thank you for considering my request. — Randomwaffle23 (talk) 19:33, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

Template wikicode question

I am writing a sandboxed version of the {{alldex}} row template for use on a draft article (User:Force Fire/List of Pokémon that appear in multiple regional Pokédex) that is currently nominated for mainspacing. I want this sandboxed version to take into account whether a non-numeric input (like --- or ???) is fed to any of its parameters.

On the current version in templatespace, whenever a non-numeric input is fed to the s= parameter, as in the following example:

{{alldexh|1}}
{{alldex|1|084|j=204|oj=199|h=095|oh=092|s=---|u2dex=---|kdex=094|kr=Central|adex=---|Doduo|2|Normal|Flying}}
|}

I get the following error message:

Ndex	Kdex	Jdex	Hdex	Sdex	Udex	Kdex	Adex	Gdex	LAdex	Pdex	Kdex	Art	Pokémon	Type
#084	#---	#204*	#095*	#---Expression error: Unexpected > operator.	#---^B2W2	#094*	#---^USUM	#---	#---	#---	#---		Doduo	Normal	Flying

This is because of the following numeric comparison statement being executed by the template to determine whether or not to append ^Pt to the Sdex number:

{{#ifexpr: {{{s|001}}} > 151|{{Sup/4|Pt}}}}

The comparison {{{s|001}}} > 151 crashes whenever s= is non-numeric. So, I want to modify my sandboxed copy of {{alldex}} to not execute the numeric comparison above unless the input is purely numeric.

I want to ask if there is a wikicode command (like {{#ifnum: {{{in|def}}}|out}} or similar) that I can use in my template to check whether the input is a number (positive, negative, etc.) and execute the output only upon meeting that numeric constraint. That way, I could have my template do this without crashing or returning error messages:

{{#ifnum: {{{s|001}}}|{{#ifexpr: {{{s|001}}} > 151|{{Sup/4|Pt}}}}}}

I could also use such a construct to tell the template to supress any {{tt|*|}} tooltips for non-numeric inputs (like ---, used to express that a Pokémon is not in that regional Pokédex), so that for the example above I get something like this:

Ndex	Kdex	Jdex	Hdex	Sdex	Udex	Kdex	Adex	Gdex	LAdex	Pdex	Kdex	Art	Pokémon	Type
#084	#084	#204*	#095*	#---	#---	#094*	#---		Doduo	Normal	Flying

this was my reply: " I'm adding the descriptions because on mobile or low wifi or bad data the pictures don't load at all sometimes. If you can't get the picture a description is a good way to help someone identify an item they have. please leave them alone." I went to correct my signature and spelling and I couldn't save.

Hey there. There is no approximate date for when the site is expected to be edit locked and the exact duration of the lock, but it can be expected in the near future. I ensure you that Staff will work very hard to have this lock be as brief as possible. --Pokemaster 97 03:53, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for stopping that vandal. Could you also hide his edits? --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 18:49, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Of course. I removed the edits from S11, but the others weren't particularly disruptive so I left them unhidden. We typically reserve hiding the edits for the particularly vulgar vandal edits. --Pokemaster 97 19:00, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

I agree. I was mainly referring to those edits, anyway. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 19:30, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Why do some edits get hidden, while others don't? I never understood that? ¿¡Unowninator?! (talk) 19:55, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

There's no formal process, staff are selected periodically based on their contributions to the site. "What Bulbapedia looks for in its staff is a willingness to contribute meaningfully above all. Expert knowledge of Bulbapedia's templates and style is one of the most major points of consideration for users to move up to the Junior Administrator level..." --Pokemaster 97 03:44, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

Pokémon Home Sprites

Pokémon Home has made new sprites of every Pokémon just for the app. I'm unsure if these should be added to the individual Pokémon's page or if there should be a page dedicated to the Pokémon Home sprites. Since there's no Head of Games, you seemed like the person to ask, how can I help since I can't upload pictures yet and what's the best way to add these sprites? Browserboom (talk) 02:55, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

It seems that these sprites have already been uploaded to the Archives. Ideally, the home sprites would be included on each individual species page as we do with sprites from other games/generations, but that would be implemented through an update of the Spritebox template, which a couple of users are working on currently. Once these steps are done is when we can go about adding them to the pages and there may be more for you to help with. --Pokemaster 97 18:31, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Ataro ignoring my talk page messages

Hey! I would like to report an admin. I've been trying for months to talk with Ataro about an editing style that I strongly disagree with, which led to what I believe to be an unnecessary three-day block on my end. Ataro responded, and this was my response. For months, I haven't received another response from them. I am led to believe Ataro is ignoring me on purpose because they have responded to other talk page messages, but not mine. They have also been active many times since that initial response, so it would've been absolutely difficult for them not to see all the talk page notifications that were sent by my many attempts to contact them.

I find it hard to believe they were unaware of all of that. If there was supposed to be another, more appropriate way to reach them, then my apologies; I didn't know. But nevertheless, I find it absolutely disgusting that this admin would engage in such unacceptable, selective behavior. One would expect an admin to respond to any and all talk page messages as soon as possible. Unfortunately, trying to contact Ataro even before they initially responded has been an extremely tedious debacle, and by this point, I am absolutely done with their conduct. I'd like to see this being addressed. Thank you. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 08:48, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Hello GrammarFreak and thank you for reaching out. While I definitely understand and see your frustrations, I also want to say be careful because you don't want to toe the line of harassment by repeatedly leaving messages after Ataro explained his reasoning behind his original action. Even though Ataro is the Head of Manga and has the right to not explain himself further, he should have communicated this to you clearly or referred you to a higher member of staff if you were dissatisfied still. I'll try to touch base with him, but, for now, I'm going to ask you to discontinue messaging him about this particular issue. You can reach out to myself or Kogoro if you have any additional disagreements with a decision a member of staff has made. Thank you. --Pokemaster 97 20:51, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Thank you! Yeah, sorry about that. That's why I reached out to you; I figured I sent too much messages as it already was. Again, thank you! GrammarFreak01 (talk) 22:02, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

So, how's it going on your end? Any progress? GrammarFreak01 (talk) 08:12, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

While Ataro's response was a bit short, he responded to you on this particular issue in October. Because he is the Head of Manga, I support the decision he made, so I'd prefer if discussion around this particular issue would end as the decision was made already. Now for future issues, Ataro will be responsive and there shouldn't be any trouble reaching him, but I'd like to consider this particular issue resolved. --Pokemaster 97 15:21, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 22:52, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

Kogoro (talk • contribs) has so many unanswered user rename requests on her talk page. I have requested as well, so will you or Kogoro globally rename users? View my current CentralAuth status. Yes, I want to have my username changed to Keyacom because I'm called like that in many places around the internet, e.g. on Pokémon Showdown.
Even if a user was blocked, will they be ever accepted to become a staff member?

Will Bulbapedia ever have the Math extension installed? Not only I want this extension, but also Raltseye (talk • contribs), Team Rocket Grunt (talk • contribs) and SnorlaxMonster (talk • contribs). I think Bulbapedia should have this extension because:

“Does this wiki have the Math extension?” (only in reference to active EP wikis, as of 8 March 2020)
YES		NO

Do edits made to the custom CSS/JS and user sandbox pages count to the userspace limit of three edits per day?
I want you to rate the following pages to see if they can be in one of Bulbapedia's main content spaces.
- User:TheICTLiker4/List of fishing encounters (If I finish this, this will be under "List of fishing encounters in Generation I").
- User:TheICTLiker4/TOC right (Raltseye (talk • contribs) was just doing this so many times. I asked on his talk page if he wants to convert all <div style="float: right">__TOC__</div> to a template.
- User:C.Ezra.M/fileexist (This is for checking the existence of files, instead of using the #ifexist parser function).
- User:TheICTLiker4/Template:NewMove (Template to be placed on pages about new moves).

Yeah, please answer these questions. TheICTLiker4 17:48, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

1. Hello there. Unfortunately Kogoro and the webmaster himself are the only staff members who have global rights to rename users on the wiki but we are working on getting this right to additional users so we can carry out the requests that have been pending. Your patience is appreciated with this.

2. Being blocked isn't a dealbreaker for becoming a Staff member. There have been a few staff members who were blocked at one point and later became Staff. A variety of factors are considered when evaluating if a user is ready for staff, including disciplinary history, qualities of edits, and a user's overall attitude.

3. This is something that we have been considering with our next Mediawiki update, but we are still in discussions. The webmaster is usually the one who handles the selection and implementation of add-ons, etc.

4. We are generally a bit more lenient towards userspace edits that are intended to be mainspaced as a template or other item that constructively adds to the wiki. However, if you are working on templates/css stuff more than you are contributing to the mainspace is when it becomes problematic. I recommend staying as close to the limit as you can.

5. I will have to look at these more closely later. Abcboy is the Acting Head of Games and can review the more game related items you have on the list as that's his area and should be your first point of contact. Hope I was able to answer some of your questions! --Pokemaster 97 02:27, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

help with wording on Twerp

Hello on the article Twerp I added that the ter mis not always used as an insult, such as how Meowth referred to Ash and the crew as tworps even when he was temporarily with the group in mid Unova. Is there a better way to include this because without this point, it only looks like it's always an insult. I think it's important to acknowledge that the term is not always an insult but is rathe roften times an insult instead of always. thakns. African Vulture (talk) 18:16, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Perhaps next time you'd find it useful to use an edit summary so other editors could be aware of that (that message was not explicit permission either in my interpretation). I am only human, that can be missed in the 1,000s of edits that occur on the wiki everyday, mistakes happen, no need to be rude about it. Thanks. --Pokemaster 97 20:18, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Mainspacing request

I'm hoping you mean what you wrote in your MftE, so here's a page I'd like to "fast-track".

It's a page I was reassured it'd be notable before I made it, which was back in 2016. Over time, I repeatedly asked staff member(s) to mainspace it, but that never happened. Recently, Daniel Carrero created the article from scratch, rather than mainspacing mine (no blame on him please). That was about almost weeks ago, and nothing happened since then. I'm talking about confusion.

So could you pleease either merge the two yourself and at least do the appropriate edit to the template, ask a staff member of your choice to do it, or promote me so I can do it? Thanks. Nescientist (talk) 10:04, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Apologies for the late reply, I was on reduced activity for a bit. I agree that since your page was in your mainspace for over 3 years and the staff dropped the ball on getting it approved for mainspacing, I went ahead and merged the two histories so that your work could be reflected as well. Feel free to see the page and make any fixes if you see them. I also went ahead and updated the template to reflect the individual page that was created as well.

Request to either create a new account or to change my username

If my Account Name is anything to go off of, I created this account back in 2016 and at the time, I didn't have a general username that I would use for websites. However, I have began using "pkmn.sm" across different websites and would like to have my username changed accordingly. If at all possible, I would like to have it changed to the name mentioned, but if it isn't possible, then I'd like permission to create a new account. Thank you for reading. Pocketmonsterfan2016 (talk) 20:54, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Hey there. Unfortunately our renameuser function is broken so I cannot rename your account, but feel free to create a new account since it doesn't seem like you made many edits with the one you are using now. Let me know if you have any other questions! --Pokemaster 97 19:05, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

KnightGalarie and Gyarados edit

Hey! Since you've decided to get involved in KnightGalarie's style of editing, do you think you could look into this edit for the Gyarados article? I've had a back-and-forth discussion with them over it, and I think a third party should look into it.

Also, on a slightly related tangent, I think there needs to be a discussion amongst the staff about the issue of style when it comes to Pokémon whose recurring status in the anime is ambiguous, like Gyarados and Dodrio. Since you made the wording for the Dodrio entry ambiguous, perhaps this opens the question of whether this should automatically apply to all other Pokémon articles with similar cases, as well as how we should evaluate the ambiguity of continuity. Do you get my drift? GrammarFreak01 (talk) 20:20, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Hey there, I believe G50 addressed this by stating that there 'must' be confirmed explicitly in order for us to state a relation as so on pages. An approach similar to mine would be okay because it remains ambiguous and never confirmed that it was indeed the same Pokémon. --Pokemaster 97 19:18, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

So what is the correct approach? I can't abide with getting conflicting answers from different admins. Shouldn't there be a consensus among staff about how to approach this, style-wise? Also, this problem is rearing its ugly head again with Korrina's Mienfoo and Mienshao with the latest anime episode being aired. There NEEDS to be a discussion amongst the staff about this. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 21:32, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Username

Please add my username to the 'queue' for username changes for when the function starts working again. I am known as Launchballer across the web.--Tmwps (talk) 18:54, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Hey there, will do. However, I am unsure at this point in time how long the change username will be down, as a pending wiki update that was set to repair this tool has been delayed due to COVID-19 reasons. If you instead rather create a new account and edit from that one instead, just let me know and we can get that sorted too. --Pokemaster 97 19:18, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

I'd rather not 'lose' my previous contributions to the site; however questionable some of them may have been, I am really not one for revising history. Take your time - I first asked back in May 2010 (was my block really eleven years ago? I feel old), I can survive another couple of months.--Tmwps (talk) 19:31, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Username change request

I made a request to change my username some time ago but it never happened despite being approved. Check my talk page if necessary. I'm kind of just having to have my sig say it right now and it feels incredibly awkward; as if I'm impersonating myself. Are you able to get it put through? --Plague von Karma 12:14, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

Hey there. So unfortunately since that message I left you, the global username feature has gone down and we aren't able to fulfill any new username requests until technical wiki staff have an opportunity to install the next Mediawiki update, but this has been delayed due to COVID-19 related issues. We have been giving users the option to create a new account under the desired username if you did not want to wait that long, because I am unsure of when this update will be happening so I do not want you to have to remain in limbo for that long. However, per the Signature policy, your signature should be a reflection of your current username and should link to your username or talk page. I would advise you to please change it back to your previous signature until the renaming issues/process is resolved. Please let me know if you have any other questions I can answer and sorry for the inconvenience. --Pokemaster 97 16:35, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

Johto/Kanto map

I've just spotted this Johto and Kanto map on Pinterest. Do we know anything about it? I know a number of places were supposed to look a bit different, most notably the Lake of Rage was supposed to have a gym, and I was wondering if this was an early prototype map. Or a poor forgery, I don't know.--Tmwps (talk) 07:53, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Hey there. I've personally never seen this map myself, but after circulating it amongst the staff, we can say almost certainly that it's fake/fanmade. Thank you for bringing this to my attention though! --Pokemaster 97 18:04, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Apologies for the delayed response. We typically don't delete or deactivate accounts just due to archiving purposes. However, you may simply stop logging into your account if you do not wish to edit anymore. --Pokemaster 97 17:38, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

Template:Moveanime

{{Moveanime}} has been edited in a way that not only leaves a notable gap between the leftmost and the second-leftmost image unless all the image slots are filled up, but also causes the leftmost image's text to be misaligned with the image under the same conditions.

Apparent troll

Hi Pokemaster97! I'm not sure how I'm supposed to report this kind of thing, but I noticed on the Recent changes page that there was a user making a bunch of trolly comments on individuals' userpages.

Romanization question

Hi Pokemaster97! I'm thinking about making more major edits to the List of moves in other languages page and the corresponding abilities page, but I noticed that there are two different romanization styled for the Japanese names of these mechanics, the ones on the moves' individual pages(which tend to use more correct romaji and also romanize words in Katakana), and the ones in the foreign language pages. Which style has precedence? I know the Manual of Style says to use the official names for the Pokémon, but I'm not really sure what to do in this case, since I don't think moves have official romanizations. I would be really grateful if you would let me know (and maybe even add a provision to the Manual of Style). Thanks again, PkMnTrainerMatt(talk) 08:14, 6 Jan 2022 (UTC)

Only the staff is allowed to make color templates. I don't know why. --C.Ezra.M! _{Or is he actually Keyacom?} 22:11, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

That's because the Scarlet and Violet article needs to match the games' logos' colors on the structures like infoboxes. For example, the {{Sup/9}} template requires colors. --SaturnMario, his talk and his contributions 22:35, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

Enable StringFunctions

I think Bulbapedia should have StringFunctions enabled. This will make sure we can use some more functions (read about them here), such as #len. This can be done by setting $wgPFEnableStringFunctions to true in LocalSettings.php. Is this change considered for Bulbapedia? (I'm asking you because it's not too urgent to contact Archaic for this, and you are the EiC.) --C.Ezra.M _(T/C) 20:01, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Userspace content deletion

Hello, I just wanted to clarify something about deletion of userspace content. I read that you can tag your page with {{delete}} and the tcontent will be removed by Admins. I wanted to know if the past edits in history will also be removed.

I already blanked out my own page by removing everything manually but the content is still visible if you view my page history. If the {{delete}} tag doesn't remove the page history, please let me know if there is another way to do so.

Thank you for your time :) - unsigned comment from Moltres93 (talk • contribs)

Adding Videos to Pokemon Pages

I have been creating videos of Pokemon with the information from the "Biology" section from the individual Pokemon pages. I do this for fun and have given proper credit to Bulbapedia, in the description. In a long winded way, I'm asking if I can add these videos in the "Biology" section of the individual Pokemon page? Thank You GengarIsBestGar (talk) 16:03, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello there. Due to trying to conserve a standardized appearance for our individual Pokémon pages, it would be inconsistent to have some biology sections with videos and others without. Perhaps in the future, when there is more content for the staff and community to evaluate, could we consider adding a video element in. 00:29, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

I don't have a problem if he/she adds things that need to be added or fixes mistakes, but he/she seems to be doing this constantly lately and I'm sure that this is because he/she is targeting me. He/she seems to have a problem with me for a while now and apparently these rewordings are fine, despite the fact that they don't need to have reworded. Because quite frankly, I'm sick of being targeted like this. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 14:17, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
+:As an example, he/she changed the description of Manectric using the move Electric Terrain in the anime and some of the edits added nothing new to it, but according to Tiddlywinks, it's completely fine to reword things, even though some of the edits were completely and utterly unnecessary. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 14:19, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
+::Hey there. First, I want to start off by saying that when you first registered for Bulbapedia, you accepted that ''"all contributions to Bulbapedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors."''. I understand that having your edits altered or undone constantly can be frustrating, but the anime-related articles are often high traffic pages on the wiki, so it comes with the territory. Since both you and FinnishPokeFan are both frequent contributors to the anime section and the pages you edit often overlap, it's difficult for me to conclude that ''you'' specifically are being targeted rather than simply the subject of your edits. I've noticed that you and FinnishPokeFan disagree on quite a few topics, but I notice that majority of the time, you do not communicate with each other beyond edit summaries. If you disagree with actions that users make the best action would be reach out on their talkpage (or any talk page) and try to find understanding. If they refuse to engage with you after that, ''then'' we could try to look into taking further intervention. Reverting edits that you felt were unnecessary simply as a means of revenge isn't the best way to go about the situation either. The bottom line is, nothing policy breaking has occurred as of now, there's not much that can be done. Not everyone on Bulbapedia is going to get along and that's not a realistic expectation, but user feuds cannot get to the point where it becomes detrimental to the progress of the site.

+== Anime Pokémon pages ==
+Sorry to bring this to you but there is a massive back log of Anime Pokémon pages that I am certain are notable enough for mainspacing; {{red link|User:Pattyman/Florges (anime)}}, {{red link|User:Pattyman/Meyer's Blaziken}}, {{red link|User:05308/Professor Sycamore's Garchomp}}, {{red link|User:05308/Diantha's Gardevoir}}, {{red link|User:05308/Chespie}}, {{red link|User:05308/Z2}} and also maybe {{red link|User:05308/Lugia (anime)}}. Though some aren't quite up-to-date, I find nobody bothers to do much to a page that isn't mainspaced, besides, there are many mainspace pages that are not quite as up-to-date as they need to be (I mean anime Pokémon pages specifically).
+I was also wondering wheather the anime counterparts of both Professor Sycamore and Lysandre should be given there own page?

+== Clemont's Magnemite ==
+I already brought this up with Force Fire but have not been given an answer yet and was told to bring it up with someone else. So I was wondering where you stood on Clemont's Magnemite. Notability rules say that Pokémon that are owned by Clemont are notable if they appeared in more than one episode and Magnemite has finally done that. So can the page {{red link|User:Rahl/Clemont's Magnemite}} be moved to the mainspace?--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 19:50, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
+:While Clemont's Magnemite does ''technically'' meet the notability requirements, the Editorial Board feels that Clemont's Magnemite in particular is not notable. It only had very brief appearances and we feel that there's not enough information about it to warrant a page for it at this time. If we were to mainspace it, it would most likely remain a stub and it's not very worth it. We are currently in the process of adjusting/updating the anime notability requirements so it will be more clear on what to do in situations like this one.

+:While it's extremely likely that Dawn's Buneary is indeed a female, it's Bulbapedia policy to abide by what the Japanese version of the anime refers to it as. Unfortunately, it's never been explicitly stated or confirmed that it is a female Pokémon on the original version, so that's how it should be referred to as in the article. There have been some situations in the past where Pokémon have been referred to as one gender in the original version and another in the dub, so doing things this ways ensures that the Japanese version will always take precedence.

''Gym Leaders may have an article about their signature Pokémon, but only if it did more than just battle in the episode(s) it appeared in and had some impact on the plot.'' .

+== List of voice actors page ==
+Should Pokemon Generations voice actors have their role mentioned on the page List of Japanese voice actors? Because there are quite a few voice actors who don't have their role mentioned on that page. Also would it be relevant for Takehito Koyasu and Yosuke Akimoto to have their own page? Because I'm planning to make a page for each of them and I believe that at least Koyasu would be relevant as he had voiced Butch in the Japanese dub of the anime but in Akimoto's case I'm not too sure if his role as Dr Fuji in Mewtwo Strikes Back, Birth of Mewtwo(Radio Drama) and Uncut Story of Mewtwo's Origin would be notable enough.[[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]] ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 07:15, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
+:Yeah, Pokémon Generations VAs should have their roles mentioned on the List of Japanese Voice Actors page. As for the two voice actors you mentioned, Takehito Koyasu definitely meets the Project VA notability requirements. Dr. Fuji would probably fall under the recurring category so I'd be okay with Yosuke Akimoto having a page as well.

+Hi, I have a few questions I would like to ask regarding a few things,
+* Do voice actors have to have a biography? Because I noticed that some such as Aoi Yuki have a biography.
+* I saw that many voice actor pages have stubs on them. Is that because technically their roles are always expanding or is there some other reason?
+* Would Kensho Ono be worthy of his own page? He played Alain who had a major role in the XY series and the Mega Evolution specials?
+* Do edits to then userspaced pages count towards mainspace edits when they become mainspaced? And is there a way to count number of edits? Because I'm striving to become one of the top contributors of the month and just asking out of curiosity.
+* Following the previous question, would it be advised against to edit a large number of articles in a small amount of time such as over the course of one day? Just need to know so I don't cause server problems.
+* About the usertag "This user has beaten Bulbabot", can it only be used by those who beat Bulbabots number of contributions in one month?
+Thanks ahead[[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]] ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 11:52, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
+:I'll try to break down everything you asked below:
+*Let me run this by the rest of the Editorial Board since it doesn't seem like there's ever been any established guidelines on that front.
+*Many VA articles have been marked stubs because traditionally stub pages are considered pages that are very short, which is the case a lot of the time for VA articles. However, this blanket application of marking them as stubs are probably something we should be getting away from moving forward. In the future, we'll probably go through and unmark the articles that are considered "complete".
+*Yes, he would qualify for a page.
+*Yes, when articles are moved to the mainspace those edits will be automatically adjusted and counted towards your mainspace edits. You can check your number of edits by going to the "preferences" tab at the upper right and then clicking "view global account info" under the user profile tab. However, this edit number will be your edits in total, userspace edits and all, I don't believe there is a way to view a breakdown of the types of edits (userspace, mainspace, etc) without very high technical administrative privileges.
+*No, we don't advise against it if they're all productive edits. The only concern would be editing a number of high-traffic templates at one time as that could crash the server, but most of those are protected from normal users anyway.
+*The Bulbabot usertag is for overall edits I believe, but I'll double check that for you. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 20:59, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

+== I've a trivia question. ==
+Hi, I wanted to thank you for removing my trivia ban. But I also don't want to repeat history, so I thought I should ask: are any of [[User:Unowninator#My personal trivia|these]] good trivia? And is there anything I should know? (I can't really remember why I got banned in the first place.) [[User:Unowninator|¿¡Unowninator?!]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 22:02, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

+::I bolded the ones that I think would be notable:
+*All of the Iron-Masked Marauder Pokemon, including Celebi have a quadruple weakness.
+*Spoink's badge bounces a bit in the Badge Arcade, whereas nothing else moves in its machine.
+*Hyperspace Fury is the only non Z-move move that breaks Protect which can hit all types.
+*<U>Rio'''Lu</U>ca<U>rio'''lu</u>
+*Darkrai is the only Technical Pokkén character without a Mega evolution or a weakness against Ghost attacks.
+**It is also the only non-Ghost type that can go through walls without an item in Mystery Dungeon.
+'''*By giving Stunfisk an Air Balloon, it becomes the only Dual-typed Pokémon immune to both of its STABs.'''
+*Onix is the only [[Gigantic Pokémon]] that can still evolve.
+*The playable Pokemon in every [[Special episode]] is either pure Grass or pure Normal (not counting Igglybuff's eventual type change)
+'''*Torracat is the only starter Pokemon to have a stat drop when it evolves.'''
+'''* In {{g|Yellow}}, the game corner slots use {{TRT}}'s Pokemon.'''
+* Sandshrew and Sandslash are the only Pokemon not to share any weaknesses with their Alolan forms.
+As for anything you should know, stay away from trivia (or any statements for that matter) that could be viewed as an opinion. Also avoid overly obvious trivia that may already be stated or easily seen from reading the article itself. I hope this helps some.

+== Username change request ==
+My username on Bulbapedia is Randomwaffle23. I despise this name, and I regret having ever been young and stupid enough to choose it for anything. On more than one occasion, I've had people assume I'm a new user who doesn't know what he's doing, even when my edits are constructive and in good faith. People figure they probably know better than someone named Randomwaffle23.
+I don't want to be looked down on because of these kinds of assumptions. I don't want to be an eternal "new user". So, I'd like to have my account's username changed to '''Ardub23''', a name which has fewer connotations (and which matches my username on various other sites). Or, failing that, I'd like to be permitted to create a new account under that name.
+Thank you for considering my request. —&nbsp;[[User:Randomwaffle23|Randomwaffle23]] ([[User talk:Randomwaffle23|talk]]) 19:33, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
+== Template wikicode question ==
+I am writing a sandboxed version of the {{template|alldex}} row template for use on a draft article ([[User:Force Fire/List of Pokémon that appear in multiple regional Pokédex]]) that is currently nominated for mainspacing. I want this sandboxed version to take into account whether a non-numeric input (like <code>---</code> or <code>???</code>) is fed to any of its parameters.
+On the current version in templatespace, whenever a non-numeric input is fed to the <code>s=</code> parameter, as in the following example:
+<pre>{{alldexh|1}}
+{{alldex|1|084|j=204|oj=199|h=095|oh=092|s=---|u2dex=---|kdex=094|kr=Central|adex=---|Doduo|2|Normal|Flying}}
+|}</pre>
+I get the following error message:
+{{alldexh|1}}
+{{alldex|1|084|j=204|oj=199|h=095|oh=092|s=---|u2dex=---|kdex=094|kr=Central|adex=---|Doduo|2|Normal|Flying}}
+|}
+This is because of the following numeric comparison statement being executed by the template to determine whether or not to append <span style="background:white">{{sup/4|Pt}}</span> to the Sdex number:
+<pre>{{#ifexpr: {{{s|001}}} > 151|{{Sup/4|Pt}}}}</pre>
+The comparison <code><nowiki>{{{s|001}}} > 151</nowiki></code> crashes whenever <code>s=</code> is non-numeric. So, I want to modify my sandboxed copy of {{template|alldex}} to not execute the numeric comparison above unless the input is purely numeric.
+I want to ask if there is a wikicode command (like <code><nowiki>{{#ifnum: {{{in|def}}}|out}}</nowiki></code> or similar) that I can use in my template to check whether the input is a number (positive, negative, etc.) and execute the output only upon meeting that numeric constraint. That way, I could have my template do this without crashing or returning error messages:
+<pre>{{#ifnum: {{{s|001}}}|{{#ifexpr: {{{s|001}}} > 151|{{Sup/4|Pt}}}}}}</pre>
+I could also use such a construct to tell the template to supress any <code><nowiki>{{tt|*|}}</nowiki></code> tooltips for non-numeric inputs (like <code>---</code>, used to express that a Pokémon is not in that regional Pokédex), so that for the example above I get something like this:
+{{alldexh|1}}
+|- style="background:#FFFFFF;"
+| style="font-family:Monospace;" | #084
+| style="font-family:Monospace;" | #084
+| style="font-family:Monospace;" | #204{{tt|*|199 in Generation II}}
+| style="font-family:Monospace;" | #095{{tt|*|092 in Generation III}}
+| style="font-family:Monospace;" | #---
+| style="font-family:Monospace;" | #---
+| style="font-family:Monospace;" | #094{{tt|*|Central}}
+| style="font-family:Monospace;" | #---
+| {{MS|084|Doduo (Pokémon)}}

Unfortunately, trying to contact Ataro even before they initially responded has been an extremely tedious debacle, and by this point, I am absolutely done with their conduct. I'd like to see this being addressed. Thank you. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 08:48, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
+:Hello GrammarFreak and thank you for reaching out. While I definitely understand and see your frustrations, I also want to say be careful because you don't want to toe the line of harassment by repeatedly leaving messages after Ataro explained his reasoning behind his original action. Even though Ataro is the Head of Manga and has the right to not explain himself further, he should have communicated this to you clearly or referred you to a higher member of staff if you were dissatisfied still. I'll try to touch base with him, but, for now, I'm going to ask you to discontinue messaging him about this particular issue. You can reach out to myself or Kogoro if you have any additional disagreements with a decision a member of staff has made. Thank you.

Now for ''future'' issues, Ataro will be responsive and there shouldn't be any trouble reaching him, but I'd like to consider this particular issue resolved.

+== Five questions ==

+<li>{{user|Kogoro}} has so many unanswered user rename requests on her talk page. I have requested as well, so will you or Kogoro ''globally'' rename users? [[Special:CentralAuth/TheICTLiker4|View my current CentralAuth status]]. Yes, I want to have my username changed to Keyacom because I'm called like that in many places around the internet, e.g. on [[Smogon|Pokémon Showdown]].
+<li>Even if a user was {{bp|blocking policy|blocked}}, will they be ever accepted to become a staff member?
+<li>Will Bulbapedia ever have the [[mw:Extension:Math|Math extension]] installed? Not only I want this extension, but also {{user|Raltseye}}, {{user|Team Rocket Grunt}} and {{user|SnorlaxMonster}}. I think Bulbapedia should have this extension because:

+<li>Do edits made to the custom CSS/JS and user sandbox pages count to the userspace limit of three edits per day?
+<li>I want you to rate the following pages to see if they can be in one of Bulbapedia's main content spaces.
+<ul><li>[[User:TheICTLiker4/List of fishing encounters]] (If I finish this, this will be under "List of fishing encounters in Generation I").<li>[[User:TheICTLiker4/TOC right]] ({{user|Raltseye}} was just doing this so many times.

+:1. Hello there. Unfortunately Kogoro and the webmaster himself are the only staff members who have global rights to rename users on the wiki but we are working on getting this right to additional users so we can carry out the requests that have been pending. Your patience is appreciated with this.
+:2. Being blocked isn't a dealbreaker for becoming a Staff member. There have been a few staff members who were blocked at one point and later became Staff. A variety of factors are considered when evaluating if a user is ready for staff, including disciplinary history, qualities of edits, and a user's ''overall attitude''.
+:3. This is something that we have been considering with our next Mediawiki update, but we are still in discussions. The webmaster is usually the one who handles the selection and implementation of add-ons, etc.
+:4. We are generally a bit more lenient towards userspace edits that are intended to be mainspaced as a template or other item that constructively adds to the wiki. However, if you are working on templates/css stuff more than you are contributing to the mainspace is when it becomes problematic. I recommend staying as close to the limit as you can.
+:5. I will have to look at these more closely later. {{u|Abcboy}} is the Acting Head of Games and can review the more game related items you have on the list as that's his area and should be your first point of contact. Hope I was able to answer some of your questions!

+== Mainspacing request ==
+I'm hoping you mean what you wrote in your MftE, so here's a page I'd like to "fast-track".
+It's a page I was reassured it'd be notable before I made it, which was back in 2016. Over time, I repeatedly asked staff member(s) to mainspace it, but that never happened. Recently, Daniel Carrero created the article from scratch, rather than mainspacing mine (no blame on him please). That was about almost weeks ago, and nothing happened since then. I'm talking about [[Confusion (status condition)|confusion]].
+So could you pleease either merge the two yourself and at least do [[Special:Diff/3156837|the appropriate edit]] [[Special:Diff/2563332|to the template]], ask a staff member of your choice to do it, or promote me so I can do it?

+:Apologies for the late reply, I was on reduced activity for a bit. I agree that since your page was in your mainspace for over 3 years and the staff dropped the ball on getting it approved for mainspacing, I went ahead and merged the two histories so that your work could be reflected as well. Feel free to see the page and make any fixes if you see them. I also went ahead and updated the template to reflect the individual page that was created as well.

+== KnightGalarie and Gyarados edit ==
+Hey! Since you've decided to get involved in {{U|KnightGalarie}}'s style of editing, do you think you could look into [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Gyarados_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&type=revision&diff=3184454&oldid=3184453 this edit] for the {{p|Gyarados}} article? I've had [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:KnightGalarie#Ho-Oh_and_Gyarados a back-and-forth discussion] with them over it, and I think a third party should look into it.
+Also, on a slightly related tangent, I think there needs to be a discussion amongst the staff about the issue of style when it comes to Pokémon whose recurring status in the anime is ambiguous, like Gyarados and {{p|Dodrio}}. Since you made the wording for the Dodrio entry ambiguous, perhaps this opens the question of whether this should automatically apply to all other Pokémon articles with similar cases, as well as how we should evaluate the ambiguity of continuity. Do you get my drift? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 20:20, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
+:Hey there, I believe G50 addressed this by stating that there 'must' be confirmed explicitly in order for us to state a relation as so on pages. An approach similar to mine would be okay because it remains ambiguous and never confirmed that it was indeed the same Pokémon.

+== Romanization question ==
+Hi Pokemaster97! I'm thinking about making more major edits to the [[List of moves in other languages]] page and the [[List of abilities in other languages|corresponding abilities page]], but I noticed that there are two different romanization styled for the Japanese names of these mechanics, the ones on the moves' individual pages(which tend to use more correct romaji and also romanize words in Katakana), and the ones in the foreign language pages. Which style has precedence? I know the Manual of Style says to use the official names for the Pokémon, but I'm not really sure what to do in this case, since I don't think moves have official romanizations. I would be really grateful if you would let me know (and maybe even add a provision to the Manual of Style).
