Before leaving a message: Start a new section by clicking this link. Keep the conversation in one page. If I sent a message on your page, don't reply here. If I reverted your edit, read the edit summary. If I didn't write an edit summary, the reason for reverting your edits should be obvious. Use English or Finnish. I'm a Senior Administrator. Check here what I can and cannot do. I don't make edits, upload files, or have any powers on Bulbagarden Archives. Give me a little time to reply unless you are a staff member who can answer the question better than I. Spam Is it considered spam if a sockpuppet goes to a talk page and put something there that led the original user to get blocked in the first place? I was kind of wondering that regarding what this MichaelXD002 user did. PattyMan 15:21, 30 October 2012 (UTC) Yes, I've seen sockpuppets' comments being removed in the past.--電禅Den Zen 15:24, 30 October 2012 (UTC) I just removed a comment of his in evkl's talk page due to that reason. PattyMan 15:32, 30 October 2012 (UTC) Question Dennou, did you reset your talk page? Every old message you had is gone. Mikoro (wanna talk?) 14:47, 1 November 2012 (UTC) 10:47, 1 November 12 (UTC) Yes, I archived it. The old talk page is here but you can't edit it.--電禅Den Zen 16:04, 1 November 2012 (UTC) Okay, just wondering. But anyway, I have a favor to ask. I have become a better Bulbapedia user since my creating rights were taken away, but now I have a bigger goal in mind. I want to become an administrator like you. Right now, my mission is to prove to every administrator that I have what it takes by fixing the incomplete synopses for all articles. I just wanted advice, and I came to the two best administrators I know, you and Jo the Marten. How exactly did you guys get to be administrators? Mikoro (wanna talk?) 01:35, 2 November 2012 (UTC) 21:35, 1 November 12 (UTC) The link that Jo posted explains it well. And sorry to be blunt, but you have to become a way better and more active editor to be considered to become an admin. Also, please try to avoid posting the same question across multiple pages.--電禅Den Zen 14:24, 2 November 2012 (UTC) Understood. But seriously, you don't have to be a smart Alec. I came to you for help, not insults. And would an inactive editor fix the synopsis for two episodes, add a helping picture for a status effect, add examples to the Pokémon controversy page, AND reprimand other amateur users for violating the rules? I don't think so. I agree I could do more, but I think "inactive" is an overstatement. Mikoro (wanna talk?) 18:16, 2 November 2012 (UTC) 14:15, 2 November 12 (UTC) Okay, you're actually kinda active. Anyway, I didn't say you'll never become an admin. I meant that you have to become a more diverse editor and make at least hundreds of good/helpful edits. I became an official junior admin after making about 9000 mainspace edits, more than 1000 talk page edits, receiving Golden Eevee and Pikachu, and being a temporary junior admin for several months.--電禅Den Zen 21:22, 2 November 2012 (UTC) Thank you! And by the way, if I beat Zenon in Giant Chasm, can I have that Stunfisk? Mikoro (wanna talk?) 17:26, 7 November 2012 (UTC) 12:25, 7 November 12 (UTC) Yes, and you'll get shocked by it... :P And by the way, remember to use the link templates when possible.--電禅Den Zen 20:25, 7 November 2012 (UTC) Alright, I will. I have already assembled the perfect team to beat Zenon :>. I think what I'll do is name my hero Cilan and breed the Stunfisk. When the egg hatches, I will teach it Sludge Bomb, ThunderShock, Mud Bomb, and Scald. Then I will give it to Jo....... she will love me forever. LOL! Mikoro (wanna talk?) 13:42, 8 November 2012 (UTC) 8:45, 8 November 2012 (UTC) Help in Floccesy Ranch You recently edited floccesy ranch, removing the cleanup tag i added back when the encounter rates were bad. There was a discussion on the talk page about the encounter rates and how the original ones there were wrong. I put some placeholder ones in, which were then replaced by rarities from the official strategy guide. They have since been replaced by someone who has not bothered to comment on the talk page, and thus you thought the cleanp was resolved when those who havn't read the talk page put values in. Could you help, and reconsider the cleanup tag?----Aquatix (talk to me!) 12:00, 5 November 2012 (UTC) I can't really help with the encounter rates because I don't have access to the game data and I don't own any guidebooks. I removed the {{cleanup}} tag because the correct tag for that situation is the {{incomplete}} tag, which was already in the article.--電禅Den Zen 13:50, 5 November 2012 (UTC) John Loeffler I undid the hiding, and put "according to john loeffler." all admins, leave me alone about this, because i was asked to put this there by John himself. the facebook accuont said that his name was John Loeffler, he lived in New York city and that he is a composer and singer, so that's proof that it's the real one. i do not know how to send links of the facebook conversation to you without revealing my realk name, (Christian Woods is my sudanym, like how Ted Lewis is Ed Paul) but i do know this: John Loeffler is going to try to check on this page within 24 hours, and i want him to see to his satisfaction that i did the edit, just to show that i kept my word, mmkay? side note: You can send Kenji girl after me, but i know that i'm not wrong, and that i'm not operating against pollicy, i swear on it. I'm nearly taking a request and allowing the information to be given out. it's not like john said "But don't tell anyone, it's a big big secret!" or anything, so don't try and make it a secret, mmkay? mmkay? thanks. and admins, i don't want any infractions because of this. i just want it to get out there and to let people see it, just as john asked me to. thanks. Christian Woods Azu! 01:14, 10 November 2012 (UTC) Dragon Rage in BW085 Why not include that error about Dragon Rage being a critical hit? Who determines which aspects of the games are adopted into the anime and which aren't? Because it seems like a helluva lot else does. In fact, we'd have to go back and remove roughly half of all errors ever added because the anime may work under different rules. The anime, which I need not remind, is based on the games. Heck, for all we know, the anime writers intentionally wrote that Electric doesn't affect Rock-types when they made that "error" about a half-dozen times in the first season. We should just go ahead and say that indeed, a Rhyhorn is vulnerable to Electricity in its horn and mouth. It's the same logic (rather, lack thereof). Water beats Fire, Pikachu's Static Ability causes Paralysis, and Dragon Rage does 40 damage. Even something as specific as a Pokémon's level is mentioned several times. Why does one person set the precedent for a piece of noteworthy trivia? I don't care if he or she's an admin, or even if there is a circle of admins who agree with him/her, clearly there are four people who made the effort to note that information. Let's not forget either that whatever precedents the Bulbapedia staff have established are not automatically what the writers intended. Also, you'd think that instead of complaining each time the same reasonable error was added, you guys could add a handy-dandy (hidden message) in the Error section. --IWannaBeTheVeryBest (talk) 07:10, 16 November 2012 (UTC) So apparently someone had the sense to put that message in after the fourth person added the error. Clap-clap. Here's another problem: the writer says that it's because Cilan uses a "completely different term"? I'm sorry, maybe he said something else in Farsi, but in English he said it "looks like a critical hit!" Come on. I don't even need to point out how this person's definition of "completely different" is laughable. --IWannaBeTheVeryBest (talk) 07:18, 16 November 2012 (UTC) Eh, the English version is just a dub. In the original Japanese version, he just said "Kibago hit the target" (this can be mentioned in the Dub edits section). Also, Dragon Rage obviously works differently in the anime than it does in the games, because there are no HPs (and levels were quickly retconned to not exist). Or do you think that Gary's Golem had less than 40 HP? If you still disagree, you should contact Kenji-girl.--電禅Den Zen 14:09, 16 November 2012 (UTC) User There is a user named Marvin Gaye (it is in all caps) on here who is also a singer from the pre-80's. PattyMan 23:42, 17 November 2012 (UTC) Since Marvin Gaye is dead, the user isn't really impersonating him and therefore isn't technically breaking the username policy. Also, he's most likely one of those users who will never make any edits.--電禅Den Zen 23:58, 17 November 2012 (UTC) At least I pointed it out. PattyMan 16:33, 18 November 2012 (UTC) Yeah, it's not bad to be cautious :).--電禅Den Zen 16:53, 18 November 2012 (UTC) Actually I did not assume Escavalier had Twineedle, I said it because Serebii himself said that it was used and that's usually a pretty good confirmation considering his status. Playerking95 (talk) 15:26, 30 November 2012 (UTC) Serebii should never be used as a source (you've been told it before), and he makes lots of move errors in his Character Bios because he assumes most moves he adds.--電禅Den Zen 15:58, 30 November 2012 (UTC) Thanks for that fix I noticed you fixed the redlinks in my pokémon subpage. I should have known, but I am a mere beginner when it comes to templates; had to use a sample, but what I used for a reference never had a nickname parameter. Hopefully I'll remember that when I add more Pokémon to that page. Berrenta (talk) 19:47, 5 December 2012 (UTC) Since you can apparently use Japanese... Do you think you can translate some of this? (or just put in the characters, because it's pretty late here so I am low on time and I wouldn't rather have enough time to type). These are only missing Japanese names (though some have just Japanese names without these being translated). Marked +-+-+ (talk) 22:41, 8 December 2012 (UTC) I added everything I could.--電禅Den Zen 23:22, 8 December 2012 (UTC) Too large? For a while now, I was looking after the Pokémon.com online games article, as no one seemed to update it. It is still incomplete (needs info on a recently released game, etc.). Just now, I noticed something: it surpasses the Décor article, which has an oversize notice, by around 12k bytes, yet the former has neither an oversize notice nor an indication of suggesting separate pages. Also, I plan on incorporating some trophy tables that are in the works, which would make the article larger. Do you think there should be subpages for trophies and/or pre-revamp games? I asked on the article's talkpage and did not get a response yet. Berrenta (talk) 18:46, 15 December 2012 (UTC) The Décor article has the oversized and merge tags because it has so many templates that some of them can't even be seen. The Pokémon.com games has almost zero templates so we don't have to split it and you can add the tables there when they are ready.--電禅Den Zen 19:24, 15 December 2012 (UTC) Okay, just wondering. Thanks. Berrenta (talk) 19:44, 15 December 2012 (UTC) Conquest and Cards Were you able to double check everything from conquest already? I saw you add some things to a few pages. (On a side note, I love how observant and ambitious you are.) MaverickNate 15:02, 16 December 2012 (UTC) Thanks. I didn't check ones that don't seem like TCG Abilities/attacks such as "One-Eyed Dragon" but I guess I'll check them all later today.--電禅Den Zen 15:27, 16 December 2012 (UTC) I also did not know what to do for Gura Gura Punch. MaverickNate 20:57, 16 December 2012 (UTC) Yeah, "Gura Gura" is hard to translate directly, but I think "Wobbly" works fine.--電禅Den Zen 21:14, 16 December 2012 (UTC) Making edits better for beginners I am new and would like some advice on making better edits to this site (Icestar649 (talk) 00:08, 20 December 2012 (UTC)) Pretty much what Crystal said. Most importantly, read the Manual of style very well and add a period/question mark/exclamation mark after every sentence. Also, you could observe what kind of edits experienced users make.--電禅Den Zen 14:23, 20 December 2012 (UTC) Thanks Thanks for the help. (Icestar649 (talk) 21:30, 20 December 2012 (UTC)) Fantasy Serperior Out of sheer curiosity: where did you find out about this fantasy/flashback Serperior in BW109? --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 14:53, 21 December 2012 (UTC) PS. My theory is that that new girl Trainer is dreaming about getting a Serperior, so maybe she's going to choose Snivy as her starter. It's seen on this preview.--電禅Den Zen 14:58, 21 December 2012 (UTC) Thanks. Now that I see it, I don't think she really wants a Serperior, after all... --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 15:07, 21 December 2012 (UTC) Jessie's Frillish/James's Amooguss May I help you by adding a bit more information in the articles that you created about Jessie's Frillish and James's Amooguss?Rioxemperte (talk) 14:51, 26 December 2012 (UTC) You can't edit those pages yourself because you're not autoconfirmed, but you can post the text you want to add below here.--電禅Den Zen 15:05, 26 December 2012 (UTC) Ok.I will put them here a bit later,but how can I be in the autoconfirmed?Rioxemperte (talk) 15:44, 26 December 2012 (UTC) It's explained on the page that I and you yourself linked... Basically, you have to make a secret amount of edits to mainspace articles (Ash Ketchum, Tackle (move), Kanto, etc.) and your account must have existed for a secret amount of time.--電禅Den Zen 15:56, 26 December 2012 (UTC) Understood.Now as for Frillish and Amoonguss I just wanted to add in Frillish the move section,because it knows Bubblebeam,Shadow Ball.Rioxemperte (talk) 00:35, 27 December 2012 (UTC) Frillish's moves are already there, but they are hidden with <!-- and --> because we don't know in which episode she will use them for the first time (provided that I haven't missed any previews).--電禅Den Zen 10:39, 27 December 2012 (UTC) question... I see you just reverted me, its OK, but which page should I place it then?? (Undo revision 1822185 by Latias1290 (talk) wrong page) I mean, to me, it seemed good...?- unsigned comment from Latias1290 (talk • contribs) Well duh, you added game!Barry's information to anime!Barry's page. And that information is already in the former one in form of quotes.--電禅Den Zen 16:16, 27 December 2012 (UTC) File rename Time ago I added a image in the Archives (File:N anime.png).As it is a screenshoot from BW110 I wanted you to change it's name in BW110.png , if you can ?カイオーガバージルみずタイプ 16:43, 27 December 2012 (UTC) Sorry, but I'm just a regular user over there; you have to ask somebody who's a staff member there. And your signature must reflect your username somehow, by the way.--電禅Den Zen 16:53, 27 December 2012 (UTC) Ok,I'll ask another user.Thank you for saying that.カイオーガバージルみずタイプ 17:02, 27 December 2012 (UTC) Palpitoad currently doesn't know any physical moves. Stop deleting my edit on Ash's Palpitoad triva section ,it is 100% true it came from reliable sources and anyone who watch the show, read the page, clicked on the links in the Moves used section and read those pages too they would see that Palpitoad has uesed 3 special moves 1 status moves and NO physical moves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! --Doddman (talk) 00:16, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
