User talk:Zelkova

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Zelkova!

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules: Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct. Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around. Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page. Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style. You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy. Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page. If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite. Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment. For more handy links, see the welcome portal.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here!   :--SuperAipom7 (Questions?) 21:30, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

If that's your finished signature, you'll have to change it. The signature policy prohibits signatures from having a font size larger than a normal line of text. Since different people have different font sizes, it's recommended that you don't set the font size using absolute sizes. If you want to make it smaller, use one or more <small> tags, as that uses relative sizes. Werdnae (talk) 22:48, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

I thought so; I'm still in the process of refining it. I figured that, because Calibri is a relatively small font on its own, the fact that it spans an extra 2 pixels (1 on top and 1 below) might be acceptable. Regardless, the relativity issue you mentioned does need to be fixed (I'll just drop the sizes completely, and add a small and/or sup tag for the Talk link). This totally slipped my mind when I first created the signature, thank you for the corrections. I'll fix it ASAP for further revision.

Is there any rule as to where we should place our signatures after a comment (immediately after the last bit of text, on the next line like I have just done [an additional manual indent is needed], etc)? Aside from that: how's this (below)?

It's fine as it is now. I don't recall whether it's specifically a rule, but we prefer it to be signed on the same line as the comment. Thanks for changing it. Werdnae (talk) 23:47, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Oh, and could you please use the preview button to check how the coding looks? Saving the page repeatedly is filling up the Recent Changes. Werdnae (talk) 23:50, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
