Note to all users who wish to leave a message
I will reply on this talk page. I do not like breaking discussions up onto multiple talk pages.

Say...

...did you, like, forget to add a link to your archive? *GASP* Fräulein Kogoro...MADE A MISTAKE? Θρtιmαtum_Talk 12:28, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

No, I'm still fixing the archive up. Have some patience ;) - Kogoro | Talk to me - 12:29, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

grumbles* (i should have known better, admins never make mistakes) Θρtιmαtum_Talk 12:30, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Admins do make mistakes, but then we make new policies that render the mistakes null and void. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 15:55, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

It's my fault

Sorry Kogoro, I guess that TCG conversation got out of hand. It's My fault you got archived.♥ Pikawitchu 13:41, 28 February 2009 (UTC) Also Kogoro, that card we talked about Dratini, I uploaded it to the archives can u check it out see if it's in good condition. Pikawitchu 13:44, 28 February 2009 (UTC) DratiniUnknown46 Pikawitchu 13:45, 28 February 2009 (UTC) Never Mind, I did it myself. Thanks Pikawitchu 14:03, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, the image could be worse, but try to get all of the card without cutting out the edges, please. ^Maverick _Nate 14:07, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

It looks that bad :( Pikawitchu 14:21, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

We typically want all the border, other than that, your images are great!. ^Maverick _Nate 15:07, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! :) Pikawitchu 15:09, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

MAY I?

Hey, Kogoro, I KNOW this will seem like talk page spam, but I don't wanna be a jerk for stealing your opening template, so... MAY I USE IT FOR MY PAGE?--^{X, PEACE TO}THE DRAGONS AND THE BEASTS 05:34, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Yeah go ahead, just give credit where credit is due, or just follow the steps that I put on the template page (I assume you meant that one). - Kogoro | Talk to me - 05:40, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I'll give credit to you, for sure, though i was thinking of the first big one the page that also shows your custom trainer sprite. To be more specific, it also shows some user tags and says that you don't need to archive your talk page. Though, I'll have to alter it to be for me, huh? Anyway, thanks!--^{X, PEACE TO}THE DRAGONS AND THE BEASTS 05:53, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Ah, yea, go right ahead with that one. Just mod it to work for yourself (the bordering can be found at here The inner stuff is hard coded on my userpage. And yeah, for credit just a hidden or {{tt}} comment works. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 06:00, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

I got that already, but thanks for the reminder.--^{X, PEACE TO}THE DRAGONS AND THE BEASTS 06:08, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Although I can't seem to make it work for me, thanks for letting me use it... even though I can't put it my way.--^{X, PEACE TO}THE DRAGONS AND THE BEASTS 22:33, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Just wait?

Well, in my part it is right not to conclude but few clues were left like the eyes in the preview and the latest movie poster of Arceus: To a Conquering Spacetime, that is where we can see a Staraptor in there. Hmm… Just telling my side. - unsigned comment from Gaspershut (talk • contribs)

...

Since we're talking about these fancy terms with bureaucrats, I was looking through preferences, and I saw autoconfirmed users and users under my listing. I read the category info, and I'm wondering, are all users both by default? What determines it? ^ht 14 05:09, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Users is the default. Autoconfirmed users is added automatically after 4 days of being a user. (However, this can be changed if the need happens to arise) - Kogoro | Talk to me - 05:11, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. ^ht 14 05:12, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Pstt

Currently having AIM Fail. ^Maverick _Nate 02:26, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

User Templates; Dog and Cat.

If I looked correctly you deleted both the User Dog and the User Cat templates. Why? I had one of them on my userlookup? Sivart 3 4 5 15:56, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

User Dog and User Cat are all merged into {{User Pet}} now. You can just add that to your page and use the variable to switch it to the one you wanted.

I've gone ahead and fixed it for you. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 19:39, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Ok, I apologize for my 'accusation' or whatever. Thanks. Sivart 3 4 5 20:38, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Sorry xD

Haha! sorry, i am doing my best =) - unsigned comment from Pao27 (talk • contribs)

It's great that you're trying to help, but please check out all of Bulbapedia's Policies before contributing, as they will make your stay here quite easier and more enjoyable. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 01:23, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Just for future reference...

All the the TCG sprites that I've suggested for deletion are ALL going to be the results of Duplication because there are misspellings.- unsigned comment from Kusanagi87 (talk • contribs)

I meant this for the summary section. Kusanagi87 17:38, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I noticed the reason you were re-uploading & tagging the mistakes. The reasons just keep it easier for others to know why the image was removed/replaced. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 17:46, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Alright. Thanks. - unsigned comment from Kusanagi87 (talk • contribs)

Please Answer

Why were you so mean to him? All he did was try to erase some comments he may not have thought were nice. Were y’all mean to him because he was new, too? ♥Lapras 23:15, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

I wasn't mean, I was upholding policy because as a Bureaucrat it is my job to do so. Also, on the note of policies... Please remember to sign your comments when you make them, not minutes later... - Kogoro | Talk to me - 23:21, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Apologetic, yet Interrogative – Please Answer Soon

But you’re still not answering my question. All I want to know is why we can’t delete comments that users have made. What’s the point? They’re our Talk Pages. Shouldn’t we be able to use them how we want to?

♥Lapras 22:04, 18 March 2009 (UTC) (Sorry about signing late last time, by the way)

/\Talk/\To/\Me!/\

Hi...

I was wondering if you could help me out with something. The article Serebii.net forums has been under strict protection since 2005. It serves little purpose, and any information it contains could easily be merged into the Serebii.net article. I was wondering if you could help by deleting the article because of your admin status.

Thanks --MiekL94 22:47, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Merged what was even useful, and redirected to Serebii.net. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 23:06, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Concerning anti-gunjump measures for the dub...

Setting protection to expire at around 10:00 UTC (the standard time for Japanese-based anti-gunjump measures) for a dub-based anti-gunjump measure is just begging for gun-jumpers to take advantage of a three-hour window. The dub episodes premiere at 9:00 AM Eastern, which corresponds to 13:00 UTC during DST and 14:00 UTC when DST is not in effect. I've already adjusted the protections for DP101 to fit with the dub airtime, but keep this in mind for the future. --Shiningpikablu252 14:23, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

I was matching the time placed on Jun, that was there at the time. Please note I don't get Cartoon Network, as I am not an American, and don't keep track of stations I do not have any ability to watch. The initial mistake was not mine, as I can see you have noticed and acted upon. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 05:42, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Show Hide

I'v been wondering how to show hide stuff, if you would't mind telling me i'd like to know.Pikawitchu 18:19, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Just use:

{| width="100%" class="expandable"
|
Title for the expandable section should go here.
|-
|
The content you want to be show/hide should then go here
|}

You might have to play with it a little depending on what you're trying to show/hide. Usually if it's already a coded table (like the Welcome that is put on everyone's talk page) you can usually just add class="expandable" to the table's head code and it will become expandable. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 23:29, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Hello!

I am sorry for spamming and deleting people's stuff... --Pokedex101 20:09, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

I'm new here...

and my sig won't work. It comes out like this. --'''User:Alpha Totodile|Alpha]] [[User talk:Alpha Totodile|Totodile]]''' 21:59, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Go to your Preferences and click on raw signatures that'll fix it.--☆Coolピカチュウ! 22:02, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Didn't work. It said "Invalid raw signature. Check HTML tags." I know nothing about HTML...--'''User:Alpha Totodile|Alpha]] [[User talk:Alpha Totodile|Totodile]]''' 22:08, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

'''[[User:Alpha Totodile|Alpha]] [[User talk:Alpha Totodile|Totodile]]''' Copy this please.--☆Coolピカチュウ! 22:11, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

OK, I know there is something wrong here. IT STILL DOESN'T WORK. --'''[[User:Alpha Totodile|Alpha]] [[User talk:Alpha Totodile|Totodile]]''' 22:43, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Did you have the raw signature box checked?--☆Coolピカチュウ! 22:48, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Yes...

Ok [[User:Alpha Totodile|'''Alpha''']][[User talk:Alpha Totodile|'''Totodile''']] Try this one and tell me.--☆Coolピカチュウ! 22:53, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

I'm afraid it's not helping... --[[User:Alpha Totodile|'''Alpha''']][[User talk:Alpha Totodile|'''Totodile''']]< 23:03, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Sorry...

Re: List of Pokémon by base stats

Sorry about that. I should've checked the results. ~~On an unrelated note, I feel a bit deterred and hurt by your sarcastic quotes... I didn't mean to do any harm.~~ Mortal 19:28, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

After reading your talk-page, I take the now stricken-out back. Mortal 19:30, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Hey, Kogoro. Can we... um... be friends?

Kogoro, your page looks awesome, so i'd like to ask you something: (1.) how can i make my page look black and gray with white text, and (2.) how do i put images in my signature? And i wanna know if we can be friends, too. You seem real nice. And you have a lot of style. - unsigned comment from Jbtm (talk • contribs)

I was going to ask the same thing. Again, apologies for causing so much trouble (and for accidently spamming, blame it on my impatience:P). I want to be friends. Oh, and Jbtm, sign your comments. Alpha Totodile 22:34, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Alpha, Jbtm is blocked... He was a sockpuppet of a user blocked for insubordination, so telling him to sign his messages is kinda pointless. ^_^; On the mention of friends. The best way to become my friend (and likely the friend of any other administrator), is to make many many many constructive edits. As long as you're a good contributor, don't abuse the user:, user talk:, or any other namespaces, you will be on my good-side. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 23:37, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. It's nice to know I can make some friends here. ^_^ I for the record HATE my life at school (probably being bullied around just for liking Pokémon). So is my apology accepted? BTW, MAGNEDETH has a notability vote page up right now. Your opinion in particular would be great. And I'm going to let you in on a secret - I'm -------- In a conservative environment like Arkansas, that's not a good thing. I'm probably the only person in the entire state that isn't homophobic. Alpha Totodile 02:15, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

List of Pokémon by effort value yield

I finally saw the edit history. How did I mess the table up? I took a look at the old edit and saw nothing wrong with it. Alpha Totodile 22:48, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

When you moved the Speed EVs to the end of the stats, you actually broke some entries with the EVs being under the wrong Stat. The table will be replaced with easier to use entry templates soon enough. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 22:56, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Ah, so that's why it's protected... I thought by "messed the table up", you meant I did something wrong with how the table was supposed to look. Alpha Totodile 23:01, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Updates

Sorry, I forgot to preview quite a few times. --_☆^Qliks _Talk^☆

Eeveelutions Image

I noticed that you uploaded the Eeveelutions image. Since you are the 'author' is it ok if I upload it and use it on Wikipedia? --Sivart 3 4 5 18:39, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

I'd really rather you not. It would be better if you obtained the official stock art yourself, then put them together for that. Sorry, - Kogoro | Talk to me - 01:28, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Comments

Oops, didn't think the Welcome post was something you were supposed to keep. My bad. --_☆^Qliks _Talk^☆ 20:34, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Your userspace

How do I make my page blue with black borders? Alpha Totodile 18:04, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

I disagree with this rationale

Shouldn't it be "As long as there are no problems with disruptive edits (either actual edits or damage control), pages don't need protection"? --Raijinili 08:22, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

It's protected because it doesn't need to be edited.--FF(edits•talk) 08:24, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

That obviously wasn't the case in the last few hours. --Raijinili 08:36, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

If it wasn't protected, what will you edit on it.--Clarky13 08:40, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Hardly the point. There's no evidence that vandalism is a problem on that page, and if there is a sudden wave of vandalism, that page isn't high-profile enough to be a cause for preemptive concern (since it's not high-profile at all). --Raijinili 08:50, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Raijinili, did you not notice that before that, TTEchidna protected it with the rationale of "Until we decide to bring these back. Which will likely be sometime soon after PtUS is announced.". Since they are not being opened for now, the protection is now indefinite. There is no need for anyone who is not an admin to edit the page until we decide to re-open them. Quit complaining. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 08:42, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Don't talk to me as if I was ignorant about the suspension of the process when the only reason you remembered this page was because I updated the page indicating the suspension of the process.

And while you can say "I can see no need for a non-admin to edit the page at this time", I can say "There is no need whatsoever to lock the page other than the fact that no one can see a need to not lock it." --Raijinili 08:50, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Why are you making a big deal out of it anyway, it's protect, who cares.--FF(edits•talk) 08:53, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Raijinili, please don't edit above another comment.--Clarky13 08:57, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Despite my red ink, I'm not a newbie, Clarky. If you're going to claim I'm doing something wrong, show me where it says it's wrong. That's a thread style: to edit, indented, under the person you're responding to, with one more indent than the comment (even if it's the same level as another's response to the same comment). It's the way most naturally suited to a wiki, since quotes are cumbersome and responses can be read right underneath what they're responding to.

Force Fire: I'm "making a big deal about it" because this seems to me to be an indication that there's a consensus to lock when it's not necessary either way. --Raijinili 09:06, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Um.... I think you've completely missed the point here, Raiji. While it is an unwritten policy to protect most Bulbapedia-space pages from normal editing (as they are mostly based on the administration of the wiki), you appear to be complaining about the point that you've helped us out by pointing out something we've forgotten. Wowza! Yay! Kudos to you! So please please please stop making a fuss about all of this. You say you aren't a new user, yet you clearly haven't been here long enough to pick up on some of the more subtle intricacies of the management here. I have only one thing to say to you, passed down from the Echidna to me, and now to you: LURK MOAR. — THE TROM — 09:51, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

My first edit is over a year before yours, if you want to talk about how long people have been here. Would you like to try my number of mainspace contributions instead? Either way, it's an ad hominem argument, and you haven't actually addressed my point: There's no reason to lock topics not in danger of vandalism and which wouldn't harm the Wiki much even if they were vandalized. "It's the way we've been doing it" is as good a reason for this as it is for, say... y'know, there are just way too many ways that sentence can end, it's ridiculous.

And I stated why I'm doing this: because it indicates a trend of unnecessary preemptive locking. --Raijinili 12:44, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

What reason is there to NOT have it protected? Any edits made to the page by anyone other then an administrator would either be spelling corrections (which aren't currently needed), or redlink fixing (which also isn't currently needed). The only time it will be updated will be when administration decides to re-open nominations, and as such, only an administrator should be editing the page. With the page protected, this makes it impossible for anyone to make a mistake.

Just to make it perfectly clear, we are discussing whither or not a currently unused page should be protected from edits. That is, a page that needs no editing currently, and further, should not be edited currently. If you still see a reason why this needs to be unprotected, then by all means, let us know. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 16:54, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

The preemptive locking ensures that the page can not be vandalized or changed in anyway. We dont want people to go and vote for old nominations, or continue discussions there. We dont want people changing the policies of the site. and why would they need to be unlocked? why do you need to edit a page thats official policy, or a nomination from months ago? And BTW, when you first edited doesnt mean crap. The Quality of your edits does.User:DCM 16:57, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Jio: I can accept "mistakes" as a reason.

DCM: Pay attention. Trom specifically challenged me about my newness. You're taking the "first edit" links out of context. --Raijinili 03:45, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

As a page within the Bulbapedia: namespace, it's not a page in need of updates or fixing from anyone other then Bulbapedia staff. The admins here are more then capable of fixing mistakes themselves.

The nominations page falls into the same category as our policies and guidelines (one could say the nominations page is a "nominations policy"), and as a general rule, those pages are all protected just to be completely safe. The nominations page only needs to be open to edits when nominations are open, and currently, they're not. So the page will remain protected. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 17:55, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Party page design

Can I use it for my party page? (That said, I don't have one up yet, I just thought I'd ask you right now. And I want it to be blue with teal text, but I don't know a whole lot of wikicode.) Alpha Totodile 21:45, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

TTE...

Do you know what's happened to him like wy he protected his talk page? I have some stuff I need to talk to him about so do you know how I could contact him?--Mister E 13 17:07, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Hm, not sure why he protected it for a week, but he must have his reasons for it. If it's of dire importance and you really need to contact him, you can either send him a PM on the forums or use the convenient "E-mail this user" link that appears on the side-bar when you go to his userpage or his talk page. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 17:25, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Broken SVGs?

(Not sure who to ask for this, so if you could point me in the right direction, that'd be great. ^_^) I've traced a number of TCG expansion symbols in Illustrator, and was thinking of uploading them all as SVGs, which is sort of like what Wikipedia likes to do for this kind of thing, except that the image previews turn out broken, making them useless in every practical sense. I don't know if this is a Wikia issue or what, but is it possible to fix? --Alamedyang (talk) 15:57, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

SVGs don't work with the Bulbawikis. I'm not exactly sure why, but I think it is due to an extension not being installed, or something to that degree. So, as far as I know, it has nothing to do with Wikia, or Wikipedia. Also, what do you mean by "traced a number of TCG expansion symbols"? If the images aren't official release, I'm pretty sure they shouldn't be used in articles unless they're set symbols we don't have any way of obtaining. I'd suggest talking to Maverick Nate about your images and see if he wants them to use, if he does, you would need to upload them in PNG format. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 16:40, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. What I meant by "traced" is that I took a huge scan of a card, like at 600 DPI, and very carefully traced a vector version of the expansion symbol. I dunno. I just thought vector > bitmap for stuff like this. But I'll talk to Maverick Nate. Thanks for your help! :) --Alamedyang (talk) 16:58, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
