Due to (attempted) abuse by vandals in the past, we never enabled user custom JS. Since vandalism is not quite as uncontrollable as before, I think I will allow user JS... if you want it. - 振霖_T 23:17, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Project templates

For your information, project data templates, such as Template:Project Routes, go on the Article page only, not on the talk page. User142 (Talk) 09:02, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Link templates

In Bulbapedia, we have several link templates to make it easier to link to Pokemon, items etc. If you want to link to an item, such as the Item Finder, the way to do it is: {{I|Item Finder}}. User142 (Talk) 06:13, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk page responses

In Bulbapedia, and probably every other wiki, it's proper to respond to a talk page message at the same place where the original message was. User142 (Talk) 06:26, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

At Wikipedia, like most other users over there, I respond to any messages left on my talk page on the talk page of the user who left the message unless otherwise directed. --TwinsMetsFan 06:28, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome.

I just hope we can get more people on the route project. It sucks being the only ones cataloging it because then... it takes forever...

Ah well. Think we'll be able to finish before the American release of D/P? Tom Temprotran 02:26, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

It was even worse when I was the only one on the Routes project. It took me well over a month to complete all of Kanto routes. Hopefully, now that only Johto and Hoenn routes remain (two regions that have been in only one Generation each), the process will be much faster and I think that we will be able to finish well before Diamond and Pearl make it to the U.S. --TwinsMetsFan 04:38, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes. That and Johto's got the least amount of routes in ANY region, besides the Sevii Islands. But Hoenn's got the most... so far. Eh, I could take Johto and Sevii together, and then, you can take whatever parts of Hoenn. And speaking about how many routes there are... I wonder how many routes are further beyond 219 in Shinou... And if we should make anything about it yet. I dunno. What do you think about making Route 219? Should we or should we wait until the other routes come out? Tom Temprotran 04:49, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

If you could take Johto and the Sevii Islands, that'd be great. For now, I'll work on the Hoenn routes east of the river near Fortree City (I can't remember the exact route number off the top of my head; I think it's Route 119), so basically 118 to 132.

As for the Generation IV routes, if there's enough information already available about the route to make an article for it, then I'd say go ahead. If there isn't, we should probably wait until all of the routes are known. --TMF ^{T - C} 20:18, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

All right, sure thing. And yeah, that's Route 119, don't forget to mention Feebas in that article, he's probably the most important thing you'll find there, aside from the Weather Institute. And then, I'll finish up West Hoenn along with the rest of Johto and Sevii. Might have to pull out Crystal, I've not been back in so long. And Gold had to go and corrupt its save file on me last week... stupid... thing. I had all of my shinies and my Typhlosion there...

So I guess it's a wait on Route 219. I mean... really, all we know are that it has a surfable section and that it's short before that. Nothing like... location. Heck, 219 could be on the island to the northeast of the rest of Shinou.

Speaking of location, what about this idea? Somehow we indicate on a regional map where the routes and cities fall in their articles. We'd be able to make it look up-to-date and colorful, maybe, if we were doing Johto's; I'd imagine somehow we would be able to pull together a Johto map using Generation III sprites. After all, somewhere I saw part of Route 30 redesigned with GBA sprites. Wouldn't be too difficult to do it with the map if we wanted consistency.

And don't forget Route 133, that still needs doing. If you work on them pretty much in order, though, I might finish Johto and Sevii up before you get that far.Tom Temprotran 01:59, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

The regional map idea sounds great. If we could put something like that together, I'd modify the infobox to include a spot for the overview map. Also, yeah, I'll do Route 133 as well. I just finished Route 118, so that leaves Routes 119-133 for East Hoenn for me. --TMF ^{T - C} 03:27, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
