Case sensitive

on a wiki, uppercase letters actually make a difference, so because your name is ZIMM in all caps, a sub-page has to be in all caps as well because there is technically no user named "Zimm" -- MAGNEDETH 03:50, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi

I noticed you have been editing the User: namespace a lot recently. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a Userspace policy that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Instead of making multiple edits, why not use the Preview button (Alt + Shift + P) located right next to the edit button to look at your page and see how it is coming? That way, your page can look great while staying within the required amount of edits. Instead of editing the userspace, as a wiki, we encourage users to edit the mainspace. So, if you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit the userspace more. Thanks! ---- MAGNEDETH 03:51, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
