Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Daru!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:

  • For a basic overview of wiki code, see this page.
  • The manual of style is very important. Make sure to read it. It outlines all official policies of Bulbapedia.
  • The word Pokémon is spelled with a capital P and an accented é. The P, of course, is accessed easily by holding Shift and pressing the P key, while the é can be accessed using Alt + 130 or Alt + 0233 on a Windows computer, and Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can click it in the character palette below the editbox.
  • The word Poké Ball is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a captial B (which is, again, accessed by holding Shift and pressing the B key). The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
  • The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
  • On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
  • The use of link templates is official policy. For an explanation on their use, see the page on shortlinks.
  • If you happen to spot a vandal in the recent changes that has not been dealt with, please see this page for how to deal with it.
  • A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at this page. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found here, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found here.
  • If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Daru/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
  • A list of the admins that you can contact in case of a problem, can be found here.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here!PokeManiac102 18:24, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Hey!

Don't vandalize the "Did you know?" template. Thank you. --RexRacer -talk 23:36, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

It's not vandalization, it's more misguided but well meaning editing. Unless we're talking about different edits. The Dark Fiddler - Nos hablamos? 23:40, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
I am having trouble believing that he really thought that a level 100 Magicarp was catchable in any game.--RexRacer -talk 23:45, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
Benefit of the doubt man. Although he really should have stopped when told not to. If he really did think it, blame serebii. The Dark Fiddler - Nos hablamos? 23:53, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
Many apoligises.--RexRacer -talk 04:17, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
