This talk page needs more commentary

So um. Yeah. {{wp}} is often preferred to using [[wp:]]. TTEchidna 08:20, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Noted, I'll be using that from now on. Thank you for letting me know.--PhantomJunkie 09:07, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

OK

So does that mean I have to write User:Cool469 or whatever it was and write that again or does it come back. - unsigned comment from Cool469 (talk • contribs)

No, you sign with ~~~~ it will automatically link to your signature. —♥ Jello 03:12, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Please

Could you please protect User:Cool469/Isshu Desert from getting edited if you can do that. Don't worry then if its been deleted. Cool469 07:32, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I don't have the authority to protect pages. You'll have to ask a staff member for that. --PhantomJunkie 07:33, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Ok thanks.Cool469 07:35, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Re: Upcoming Pokémon

First of all, let me apologize for my rudeness. Secondly, you seem to have misunderstood my complaint. I only mentioned Victini because the official site revealed its information hours ago and we still don't have an article for it. I never said anything about articles for other Pokémon; I am perfectly okay with not having articles for them if we don't have sufficient information. But we have at least as much info on Victini now as any of the Pokémon who DO have articles, and it took me all of five minutes to write up an article for it, and this was two hours before my angry rant. However, I can't create the article due to the user page restrictions (and since you guys do such a good job with anything that ISN'T related to Black and White, I can't find anything to edit...) And yet, this article that you claimed people were working on (which took me five minutes to write) has yet to be created.

Also, my rant was primarily directed at a request to update the Isshu Dex page with Mamanbo, Shikijika, and Gigaiasu. My intent was to inform this person, albeit in a rude and misdirected way which I apologize for, that saying "add this information now" was a waste of time, because despite the fact that this information was revealed days ago and would take less than 30 seconds to add, it will still be at least a week (and the sad thing is that I'm not exaggerating) before the page is updated. So if you don't mind, I think I'll ignore your advice ("if you have anything you know of that hasn't yet been added to these articles, you can ask about those things on the respective talk pages") because it's obvious that while the people in charge KNOW this information is out there, they're determined to be the last place on the entire internet to post it despite being the definitive source of information on the subject (this also seems to be the policy on Bulbanews, unfortunately...) I understand the need to gather all the information and present it in a professional manner, but it took me five minutes. Come on. Perhaps my rudeness was uncalled for, but with all due respect, someone's clearly not doing their job.

For example, my first edit was a comment on the same talk page requesting that Wargle be moved back to Wooguru as per Bulbapedia's romanization policy, which was ignored. Also, just today I added Shikijika to the list of Japanese Pokémon names, only to find it was already there. Forgive me, I've gotten accustomed to encyclopedias being, you know... organized. I saw Mamanbo and Gigaiasu at the bottom and figured they was organized by the date they were revealed (I missed Koromori below it). But of course, just like the Isshu Dex page, the list is in no discernible order. Just further evidence of the lack of professionalism that inspired my rant in the first place. This IS supposed to be an encyclopedia, isn't it?

But you know what, I'll humor you. I'll request that both lists be put in alphabetical order as well as posting all of Victini's details and we'll see how long it takes for someone to do something about it.--Bad Wolf 20:04, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

The login problem

First of all, thanks for mentioning that solution you've come up with, but sadly I'm not only using an awkward Korean Vista, but also Google Chrome at the moment, and I'm not entirely sure how to clear my cookies and cache, though I've logged out before. If problems rise again, I'll ask you for detailed instructions, sorry if that's an inconvenience. :P Kaboom, die, you 03:22, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
