My challenge to you is to try and use the preview button more to make your edits as good as they can be the first time around!

:Thanks for the advice! I use the preview button a lot, more than I use the save button, but I tend to make a lot of typos and sometimes new informations are a bit trick as well, but anyways I'll try my best to decrease the history stress. {{unsigned|The StarLlama}}

Hi there!

Hey! Welcome! Thank you for all the TCG contributions you've been adding lately. It's great to see new people come in to help cover the never ending TCG coverage here on Bulbapedia. I hope you stick around.

I just wanted to drop by and stress the importance of previewing edits. I noticed you have a tendency to edit the same pages almost 10 times in a row! Luckily, the preview button helps to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to before you save it. It's right next to the Save Page button on the edit screen. So convenient! Understandably, sometimes a missed typo or mistake might make it through our final edit, but having so many edits in a row can make histories harder to understand and can add stress on the servers that keep Bulbapedia going. My challenge to you is to try and use the preview button more to make your edits as good as they can be the first time around! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me or any of the other Staff. Keep those TCG contributions coming and I can't wait to see your name pop up more often around here!
