Can u please put the table on my talkpage?--KukiTalk 02:22, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
- Why can't you make your own table like everyone else did? Don't steal my colors though, be original with your work! MoldyOrange 02:25, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
More awkward translations
There are a few more promo translations that I need another opinion on:
Pokémon Pal City OTA-weather player, respectively, at one time every one of their cards on a pile of bills to look at seven. In that case, the "Pokemon Basic" as much as you like to choose their own bench out. Then, the bill off the mountain. (Bench players are not subject to this effect can not use.) Link is [1]
Champions League "Champions League" is the only money they can Champions League. Champions League at their hand, while opponents see the other players. Link [2]
Mysterious Pearl Ura has been OMOTE his side at all, based on the throw. NOZOMU would the Pokemon one of the other players showed, in addition to hand. Hand made, this card is not trash, OMOTE to keep his side. Link [3]
Miracle Diamond Ura has been OMOTE his side at all, based on the throw. NOZOMU, the "trainer card," one of the other players showed, in addition to hand. Hand made, this card is not trash, OMOTE to keep his side. Link [4]
Thanks. ~~nuva-kal 21:19, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks
For some reason, I didn't realize we weren't supposed to do that.
One question, though. Since May's Combusken evolved in the dub as well, is it technically a spoiler? Because there are links to Ash's Sceptile and Swellow before they evolved. --PAK Man Talk 02:25, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
- I think it would be a spoiler, but the links to the Sceptile and Swellow shouldn't be there until they evolved, they should remain as the pre-evolved forms until the episode they actually evolved. MoldyOrange 02:30, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
Hey.
So, I have a favor to ask. Template:TCG Expansions contains a link to Vending Machine Cards (TCG)
, which redirects to Vending Machine cards (TCG)
, as you pointed out to me some time ago. The thing is, it's protected, so I need an admin to relink it for me. If you're still online, will you take care of it? --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 04:12, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
- No it doesn't. MoldyOrange 04:14, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
- ...oh. You're right. That... wow. I feel stupid now. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 04:23, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
Certain pics
Could you put up some pics of Shiftry, Swalot, Blaziken and a few others on. I can't upload them, and I wnat to show my Pokemon Teams. Go to my page and go to my teams to see. - unsigned comment from Pokelova (talk • contribs)
"Hearthrome City"
Did we already have a redirect to Hearthome city, because when I tried to redirect it, it said a page already existed...or something that sounded like it existed.--PsychicRider 18:36, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
- I really don't know, but I do know that we don't need a redirect for a misspelling. MoldyOrange 18:40, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
Don't worry
It's no biggie. --PAK Man Talk 04:31, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Electabuzz (TCG)
Hi, what's up? I allowed myself to go out of my turf and create this page. Anyway, I just wanted to make sure with the expert that I did everything right... --electAbuzzzz (TALK) 13:59, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Two more
pesky japanese translations for you to look over. Victory Ring All OMOTE to his side. NOZOMU, OMOTE side of as much as you like to choose their own bills, soaking the mountain. In that case, well-cut bill to the mountain. Then, MODOSHITA the number of cards, notes from the top of the mountain, looking at OMOTE off the left side to keep Ura. Victory Orb (without Mew) From the top of my pile of bills of seven cards. Then, I looked like a card in order to reshuffle the bill on the mountain throw.
If you need the pictures, they're on SaturnYoshi's talk page. ~~nuva-kal 15:27, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Ash/Gligar picture
I don't think you understood what Tc26 was trying to do. He replaced the episode picture for DP085 with a diffent one. He tried to upload a picture of Ash's hugging Gligar under a different name but you kept deleting it. --ケンジのガール 01:32, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
- And now he changed it back.... --ケンジのガール 01:34, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
- Because you kept changing it and you changed it to one with a lower quality. tc26 01:35, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
- One, I kept deleting it because, when you upload new versions, it screws up categories. Also, the title is "Wings of Friendship," I think the hug fits so much better than the new one he insists on. And, images don't always change right away, so from what I was looking at, it was still a duplicate. Furthermore, he has not been categorizing his images, making it more confusing to begin with. MoldyOrange 01:36, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

help
may you tell user: kuki and user: Tc26 to stop changing my images i uploaded - unsigned comment from Pikastorm (talk • contribs)
He's harassing us!--KukiTalk 02:07, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
- no i'm not. you started it by changing images of episodes that were the head images for a year and several months (example: the image for episode episode 22).... - unsigned comment from Pikastorm (talk • contribs)
But they were better--KukiTalk 02:14, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
- I'm no expert, but I'm on Kuki's side. But having an edit war over it isn't really helping, so have a FULL and FRANK discussion on the talk page (oh, and that means YOU'RE QUARRELING LIKE BABIES YOU FRICKIN IDIOTS! in basic language.). - unsigned comment from Optimatum (talk • contribs)
Metronome (move)
Why did you revert my edit? Baby G 23:11, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
- Because is was extremely filled with fan speculation, which shouldn't ever be on Bulbapedia. MoldyOrange 23:12, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
What?
It is already prepared on the archives for being the head image
What do you mean by that? tc26 00:15, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
- It has the archive's template for being the head image. That is one of the reasons why they shouldn't be changed. MoldyOrange 00:19, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
- So I can just add it to the other and remove the one from the one in use? tc26 00:25, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
- No, to quote Pie, "When involved with a dispute with another user, it is never appropriate to participate in a revert war with said user. Revert wars are ugly, pointless, and clutter the database. Either work it out through discussion with the other user, or if that does not resolve anything, contact the sysops. Neither you nor the other user has the final say on which screenshot is best used as the displayed screenshot of an episode - we, the sysops, do."
- I think that the image currently on that episode is best used. Don't change anymore without contacting one of us or suffer the consequences. MoldyOrange 00:48, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Template:User Admin Candidate
Why change the coding from {{BASEPAGENAME}} to User Admin Candidate? --ニョロトノ666 00:20, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
- Because I screwed it up, I think I fixed what I wanted to do now. MoldyOrange 01:00, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
Celebi card
Buh...I'm fine if I have actual text I can copy and paste into a dictionary (kana are simple of course, but I know less than 100 kanji so far) so I can't translate the effect...but I can tell you the name of the move is "Reviving Light". I think I can kind of get the gist of the attack's effect, but I'm having some trouble. It seems that each player can take a Basic Pokémon from his discard pile and put it on the bench, but after that I get confused. Is there anyone on the wiki who's better at reading than me?--Loveはドコ?

No, there's one where he acts all cute with Pikachu that might be better, still showing her cutesie side--KukiTalk 18:07, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
How about this?--KukiTalk 18:10, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- I said that I looked for one and decided that this was the best possible picture: It is colored correctly and brightly, it doesn't look blurred; this image is far superior than any other one. MoldyOrange 18:12, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
But the reason it isn't correct is because the digital animation change for episodes doesn't happen for exactly 101 episodes--KukiTalk 18:14, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- So why can't we have the digitally improved image that looks better than any other? MoldyOrange 18:17, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Here's a compromise: Put them all up!--KukiTalk 18:20, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- Image flood is always bad and it looks horrible, there is a point when there are too many, and with such a small anime section, only one does suffice. MoldyOrange 18:22, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
OK, then one of mine--KukiTalk 18:23, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- Why must I repeat myself to you!?!?!? The digitally enhanced image is far superior than any one you could ever possibly upload. MoldyOrange 18:26, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

- That is not even anime artwork, why have it for the in the anime section if it does not even belong? And, there will only be one image for Whitney, Morty has enough information for two, not every leader has to follow the same guidlines, not having the same makes things more diverse. Whitney gets one image, the image from the opening...end of story! MoldyOrange 19:13, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome
... I don't think. Instead of berating, perhaps you could have kindly explained the details I missed as a first time editor. Nevertheless, I will simply overlook your childish attitude as due to the fact that your only 16. It's time to learn some manners. Stuhacking 22:45, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

- May I rip him to peices?Good Day;DCM
- Not that I see the relevance, but I'm 23. Old enough to know that everyone is new to something the first time they try it; that the best way to learn something is to jump in and do it, and when new people attempt something that I'm experienced with and they do it with enthusiasm (albeit poorly) it is better to gently point them in the right direction so that they can improve and still maintain the enthusiasm. Tearing someone apart because of a minor error is not productive. Stuhacking 22:56, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, back on topic. The welcome should have told you exactly what I fixed and why I fixed it. And I thought yelling at you as a first time user would have been harsh, I just thought you would have paid attention to what I fixed, and learned what to do for next time.

The episode templates
Moldy, they're not more coding then writing them out. Count and check. I really wish you'd have waited for an answer before deleting them. They were more beneficial than many other link templates. They saved 4 characters on each link, which is a lot overall. --electAbuzzzz (TALK) 14:01, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
- Not to mention, you forgot to remove the template from the pages linking to it. --electAbuzzzz (TALK) 14:02, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
- One vertical pipe, but four "'" for italics. Never mind, it's no big deal. I just think they were beneficial, or at the very least harmless. --electAbuzzzz (TALK) 06:29, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
- I don't think that makes the templates less useful. People can simply not use them in those cases. But they're still useful in most cases. Look, Moldy, I don't wanna argue with you about it. We'll have to agree to disagree. You're the sysop, so that settles the argument unless we take it to higher ranks - but there's really no point. It's meaningless. --electAbuzzzz (TALK) 19:33, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Where does it say to have them in the order that they were used? Alphabetical order looks more organized. Baby G 01:51, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Ash's Pikachu
Look at my diff. At the bottom, I made it better organized by not having parentheses, and I put a period. You should be more careful when reverting whole edits. Baby G 01:54, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Special
I'm not trying to single it out in particular, it's just one of the very few translated into English and widely available on the Internet. That's all. It's the only one I can use, since I don't live in Japan or speak it. Aura-Knight 13:06, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Australian Flag
Can't the bigger one just be deleted, and I'll re-upload the small one? The big one isn't being used anywhere except here where it looks way off. Porygon-Z 15:49, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, I would prefer if you switched the small ones over to the big ones because all the big ones were already on the archives and are used on Bulbanews, even before you uploaded yours. Is the size that important? I thought that the bigger flag looked so much better and less blurred than the small flags. MoldyOrange 21:25, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- Additionally, if you really want the flag to be smaller, it can be done without a smaller file. To resize an image without having to upload a new one, you can put down [[Image:<imagename>|<size>px]], where <imagename> is the name of the image and <size> is the size of the image in pixels. --Shiningpikablu252 02:04, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Can I have permission to change them back? Ask what was wrong with them?--KukiTalk 22:38, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- You do not have permission until you show me that you know exactly what to do when you switch head images. Currently, you only did it half-assed and you haven't changed the necessary categories. To qoute Pie "When involved with a dispute with another user, it is never appropriate to participate in a revert war with said user. Revert wars are ugly, pointless, and clutter the database. Either work it out through discussion with the other user, or if that does not resolve anything, contact the sysops. Neither you nor the other user has the final say on which screenshot is best used as the displayed screenshot of an image - we, the sysops, do." So, until you show me that you know what to do and you actually do it correctly, you are not allowed to change any head images. MoldyOrange 23:14, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
I did it correcly, AND I have 2 sysops on my side--KukiTalk 23:17, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- We're not necessarily "on your side." If you do a shoddy job of it, we're most certainly not on your side. We gave you permission to change the images, but you've got to do it right. --ニョロトノ666 23:18, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
But did I or did I not do it right? If not, tell me y and I'll fix it!--KukiTalk 23:21, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
Hello?--KukiTalk 23:28, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- I wouldn't have had to yell at you if you would have done it correctly. Now, since you changed so many head images, hundreds of files on the archives either don't have the appropriate category or have the head image category when they are no longer so. Also, you hadn't always changed the full episode list to correspond with your episode changes. Make sure that every episode on the lists and every episode page have the same image. If you do these things, some of the problems you cause will be taken care of. MoldyOrange 00:02, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Celebi/Latios and Latias
Celebi: "Reviving Light" Each player may take one Basic Pokémon from his discard pile (unable to read)...(If a player's bench is full, he does nothing.)
Latios & Latias: "Light's Guidance" ...I pretty much can't read any of it.
Celebi's image quality is almost to the point where I can read the whole thing, but Latios & Latias's black background makes it just plain impossible.--Loveはドコ? (talk • contribs) 19:58, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
- On the Latios & Latias, try putting the image into Paint, going into "Image", and selecting "Invert Colors". It's much more readable once that's done.
- If your operating system isn't Windows, odds are your operating system's default image editor has a similar option. --Shiningpikablu252 20:06, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
- Well, good news, I found the cards' pages on the Japanese branch. and they have the text right there.
- Celebi: "Both players may take one Basic Pokémon from their respective discard piles and place it on their Benches. (If a player's Bench is full, he/she does nothing.)
- Lati@s: "Choose one of the Pokémon in your deck that appears inside the circles in the above illustration and place it on the Bench. (If your Bench is full, do nothing.)"
- The "deck" in Lati@s's attack is actually "collection". I'm not sure what to make of it; I assume they were referring to the deck. Although the attack's effect as a whole is weird; I wouldn't be so surprised if the card allowed you to pull a card from outside of your deck...(as in, your "collection" in its entirety).--Loveはドコ?

Watermarked images
Would you mind restoring the watermarked image on the archive for a minute, just so I can see the problem with it and make sure not to do it again? It was a long time ago, so I don't remember... In any case, sorry about all those fiascos I've caused with my uploads. I'm not an archive guy. --ニョロトノ666 20:32, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Can you temporarily restore it so I can copy its code to a document on my computer? Baby G 00:27, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
- Also, just a note: Before deleting my templates, you should ask what other admins (such as TTEchidna, Politoed666, ShiningPikablu252, etc.) think about them so you will know whether or not it's a good idea to delete them. Baby G 00:35, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

- MO here is an admin, im pretty sure he knows what hes doing. -- MAGNEDETH 01:44, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
- The templates you're creating have little use. We do NOT need a million variations on the deletion template, we only need the one we've got. How would a user who's no longer active in editing put up tags saying so, especially if that inactivity begins abruptly? Notice templates are only good if they're useful, which the ones you made were not. --Shiningpikablu252 02:09, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
- if someone wants to give a reason why a page should be deleted, other than it being obvious, usually, said user adds a comment below the delete template. so if i wanted one of my pages deleted, id stick the tag on it with the comment "unneeded page" and an admin would do the rest. likewise, if a page has a bad, or incorrect name, stick the template on it with a comment noting the page is spelled incorrectly. however, some spelling errors pages can get turned into redirects, so, that a possibility too. -- MAGNEDETH 02:29, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Apologies
Sorry I haven't been much help to you in the past few weeks. My house computer became infected with a virus and Windows crashed completely.

So
So glitch isn't a proper noun. Well, neither is fire. Or steel. Or water. Unless you're using them in the context of types, then it's Fire, Steel, and Water (I emphasize the capitalization). That sort of logic, FYI, is exactly why I capitalize the Glitch in Glitch Pokémon. Not unlike how the "shadow" in Shadow Pokémon is capitalized. Make sense to you? I'm Missingno. Master, and I approve this message. 21:51, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
- Those types, as well as the phrase Shadow Pokémon, are all official Nintendo terms, similar to the infamous Forme. Until Nintendo releases something that acknowledges the existence of Glitch Pokémon and refers to them with a capital G, that argument doesn't quite hold up. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 22:16, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

User talk:Babyg
When you deleted User:Babyg, you also deleted the talk page, saying that it was a talk page for a deleted account. But there's no way to "delete" accounts and it's not unusual for users to have talk pages when they don't have user pages, so can you please restore this page? Baby G 21:03, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
Promos
I've managed to get in contact with promo_sen, who is quite an expert on Japanese promo stuff (they sell them on eBay). They said they would send some images of cards and info on stuff we may be missing, so I'm looking forward to see what they give me.
Also, I've noticed the Nintendo Promotional Cards article sticks out a bit in the TCG expansions category. Only parts of it have been updated, and it is rather messy. I separated them a while ago, and tried to get rid of the original, only to have it reverted by Zhen Lin. I think if it is deleted and the links for the individual articles in the Nintnedo promotional cards category are put onto the TCG sets template, like the Japanese ones eventually were, it would tidy everyhting up a bit. Maybe the Nintnedo promotional cards category should be also be renamed to "English promotional cards" or something, but I want to check with someone before I make people go red in the face again. ~~nuva-kal 21:07, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
- I also think that the Promotional work needs to be revised, I say go for it! If you have better ideas than what is written, then you should express them. With changing a category name, all the cards in the category need the category editted to reflect the change.Just tell me what you need done to any protected pages, and put the delete tag on whatever needs deleted once you are fininshed, then everything should be fine. If you want me to put the nintendo promotional sets on the set template, tell me exactly which ones need put on, so that we don't miss any the first time. Also, if you are getting the images from eBay (or something related to that) make sure that none of the images you upload have the suitcase site stamp, we don't want to get Bulbapedia in trouble.

TCG disambigs
Thanks for the cleanup. As I told you before, my TCG knowledge is (very) limited, which is why I got the order wrong and such (I just follow the navigation template and search for the cards). I'll try to pay attention to that on the next one (which would probably be Starmie). --electAbuzzzz 16:14, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Trivia
How is it not true that Dew'ford, Cinnabar, and Cianwood doesn't have a correlation with Water, fire and grass when it comes to their names? Dew in Dewford would indicate water, Cinnabar is obviously fire and Cianwood would be grass since wood isn't a element in pokémon.
I admit I probably worded it in a way that made it sound like they were the bird trio islands since it was 5am, but based on name they clearly have been named in a manner that relates to the elements.
All of whom are weak and strong against one another in a cycle. I don't think it should be called untrue, just have to word it right so as not make them look like we're comparing them in the same manner as Fire, Ice, and lighting island. Yami 01:32, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
- Changing the comparison from wood to grass is what sets it off. If you have to make such a change, which I personally don't think that it is a strong correlation, It is stretching it for trivia. I would think that Wood would go with rock, because Sudowoodo is a rock type when it is based off of wood. I just didn't think that the trivia was as correlated as you may think and I also belive that it was stretched to become true. Also, Cinnabar's name is based off of a color, not of fire. MoldyOrange 01:38, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
oh i see, well thanks. oh and i'm adding some new trivia to Dewford. it seems i forgot that both chuck and brawly (i keep wanting to say Broly) have fighting type gyms, and i'll do the same for cianwood.Yami 01:42, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

IQ skill
Just so you know, I made IQ skill, and it's part of a larger commit that I had been planning (like, I don't know, filling in all those redlinks?). You've pretty much advocated for the removal the work that I had been planning on. KelvSYC 01:36, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- I was just saying that all those red links were not notable enoug for articles...they should all go on the same page possibly. But there was already a page for it. MoldyOrange 01:38, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
They are at least as notable as those on abilities, especially considering their increased importance in MD2. Furthermore, IQ only had relevance to MD1 before I had edited it. KelvSYC 01:54, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Now that's going a bit too far. Now you're just simply opposing my initiative to be bold and add some relevant information. Please consult with me before making quick conclusions. KelvSYC 01:57, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- You've got three sysops saying that pages for individual IQ skills are not notable. Information on all IQ skills can and will go on one page. Odds are that, if you fight three sysops, you'll lose. Yes, we could use expansion on IQ skill information within reasonable means--such means are expanding the existing lists or adding a new list on IQ, NOT giving each skill an individual page.
- I hope you understand what we sysops are doing. While we'd support the expansion of the lists of IQ skills, what you're insisting on doing is going too far. --Shiningpikablu252 02:00, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Again, as I've stated on User talk:Shiningpikablu252, that these three sysops are acting in bad faith. I contend that they are at least as notable as abilities. If you want more discussion, I opened a new forum thread: [7]. Hopefully there will be some civil discussion without these three sysops jumping the gun and rv-ing and deleting every significant contribution that I have in store. KelvSYC 02:10, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry to come in on this out of nowhere, but seriously. It's not needed. It's something not as important as other articles. It can simply be in one article. Do you see an article called X Accuracy? No. The same is true here. ht14 02:12, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Direct Links to Archives
If you want to create a standard link that leads right to the Archives, it's done by putting "a:" right after the link opening. For example, [[a:Image:004.png|Image:004.png]] would result in Image:004.png.
For the record, if one wants to do the same with Bulbanews, the necessary start-link extension there is "n:". --Shiningpikablu252 19:12, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Thank you very much for reminding me even though I'm not the one making most of the edits. 1/3 of the edits are mine, but 5/6 of my edits are fixing problems that other users had created. It's a project page, what do you expect? It's getting popular and people cannot stop editing it.--☆Tavisource 01:35, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
- I know you didn't have the most, but you still went over three. Just because it is becoming popular doesn't give you the right to edit the User space more than everyone else. Please try to wait until the end of the day before adding everything, then you won't get yelled at for going over three. Also, try editing the entire page at the same time instead of section by section. MoldyOrange 01:43, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

- That is your issue. If you want to make it into an official project, go for it! But, before you do, please tell me if it was an official project before. If it was, you must ask the admin who moved it to your userspace. But I personally don't mind it being a project. MoldyOrange 02:14, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Is this card added yet? It is a jumbo promo card (Captain Pikachu Special Jumbo Card) from Pokemon Center Japan--☆Coolピカチュウ! 01:18, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

- We do not have a page on this card yet! What do you expect? this card was revealed roughly 3 days ago, and won't even be released for about half a month, so just wait till the Japanese card website proviides the information in about half a month, then we can have the page then.

Good Idea
About the Custom Sprite table displaying all the sprites...do you think it would be good idea to create the table as a separate template so users can put the table on their own user pages without having to modify it when the table is changed?--☆Tavisource 02:51, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
- We were wondering if the Mystery Dungeon Pokemon should have their own sprites. ie. Piplup: Bow tie, Sunflora: Scarf...etc? Do those items follow them everywhere?--☆Tavisource 02:55, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
- Why should people have to put it on their userpages? that just seems like a waste of space, and a template like that would change very often, and having to change every page it appears on would cause unwanted server stress. So I would advise against it. And about the Mystery Dungeon, I haven't played the games, so I wouldn't know. MoldyOrange 02:56, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
- I meant the anime. And I think you misunderstood the template thing. The template should be made so IF people wanted to put the table on their user pages, every page would NOT have to be changed...get it?...whatever, it was just a stupid idea.--☆Tavisource 02:59, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
- I meant that when the tewmplate was changed, the server would have to go through on all the pages on which the template is used, and display the changes from the template. I also could have worded it better, but I haven't watched the anime special either. MoldyOrange 03:01, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
- Okay...Basically, the teams buy items before they leave for a mission. The items are pretty much like the ones in regular Pokemon games. They keep the items on them ALL the time...but the question is if they would ever change their items. If they change, the sprites should not be made...but if they keep the same items throughout, then there's something to talk about. get the point here?--☆Tavisource 03:04, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Unfair blocking?
I'm not entirely sure about this, but wasn't the policy regarding revert warring over images instated after the revert war on Lance's Dragonite? Like I said, I may be wrong, but if I'm not, I believe it's unfair to carry out a punishment on users who committed the "crime" before the punishment was instated. --ニョロトノ666 02:37, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- main page was updated on Oct 1st, there were reverts on the 2nd, so, it could be a fair punishment. -- MAGNEDETH 02:39, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- The policy was made in the middle of the edit war. that means that they knew what they were getting into when they reverted the image twice today when the protection let out, again. The policy was made yesterday and they broke it. But, if the edit war persists after they come back, the ones from before won't be counted. But, In my opinion, they need to learn, and with Kuki (who thinks he is a good admin candidate) should have went to the talk page first before reverting. MoldyOrange 02:40, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- Alright. I apologize for my minor implication of wrongdoing on your part. Yeah, revert wars aren't something we take lightly, so I'd say your actions were justified. As for Kuki thinking he's a good admin candidate, I hate to break it to him, but that's gonna take a while... however, anything is possible.

I think I have an idea about how to fix the tables
When I first designed the table, I wanted to make a blue bar on some of the columns, like the item listing in the Agate Village article, seperating the moves into different card sets, make it look a little more parsed out. However, I had trouble figuring out how to do it, I couldn't identify any unique code that makes it blue again. Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm wondering if that's what we should do.
After thinking about it, I'm thinking First Appearance/Used By column might not seem to bring too much to the overall picture, unless you have a reason for the First Appearance to stay, since you put all that work up and I didn't want to just undo all your work. Plus, with the zillions of Pokémon using Flare, that definately seemed like it was out of control.
We keep the "Varies" and "depends" for costs and different Pokémon mentioned.
Regardless, if this blue bar sets thing sounds like a good idea to you, I'd love to hear your input. ~Toastypk - Loom. 05:08, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- I think that is a great idea. But I would like to keep it as the first appearence, because otherwise, it is too much extra work. You have to put an exclamation point before instead of a hyphen. MoldyOrange 11:00, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
Editing the User: namespace
I know that this would make things a bit more complicated in terms of blocking, but I think that each user should only get one User page edit per day. We could add one extra edit per subpage, but as of right now, people are still not using the preview button and need to constantly get warned. When this goes on, it is hard not to *headdesk*.
- Edit 1. Welcome to my user page
- Edit 2. Welcome to my user page.
- Edit 3. Welcome to my user page. My name is eXample.
This is ridiculous, you know? A quick and easy ban from editing the User page for a day would do wonders against all of the warnings and arguments.
--RexRacer -talk 22:53, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- Not my decision, but the limit of three is working just fine. The only problem is when people screw up warning users and warn too early, or there aren't any people on who can switch user rights log. MoldyOrange 22:56, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

- The standard for them is [[Pokémon name (TCG#Card name|Card name]]. It has card name for the example of Misty's Goldeen, Arcanine LV X, Aura's Lucario ex, Light Ninetales, etc. They should all be that: both the link in "name" and the link in "evolution stage".

Can you please be more specific as to why you reverted my edit? IMO, it looks better to not list the same Pokémon more than once. Many other move pages have it my way. --Baby G (talk to me) (see my edits) 00:23, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
- It takes the levels out of order, when the style of those pages is to have the levels in order, regardless if the Pokémon appear twice. All the ones that "have it [your] way" are incorrect. They should have the levels in numerical order, even if the Pokémon appears twice. MoldyOrange 00:26, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
- Fine then. However, when you reverted all of my edit, you messed around with some of the links. Just letting you know. --Baby G (talk to me) (see my edits) 00:30, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Why exactly would we not need the image of Phanpy hatching? --Baby G (talk to me) (see my edits) 20:10, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
