Hi PsychicRider,
can I have a question? Can you look at this? My English is not much good so please write me back. Is my user page OK? Thanks. - unsigned comment from Issus (talk • contribs)
Hello, Yes your user page is OK, basically anything can really go on the userpage as long as it follows the Userspace policy and as long the edits to the userspace are kept low compared to the mainspace, so it's fine right now. :D. --Psyライダー☮18:37, 5 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hi, just trying to understand a revision you made to the Cerulean City page last month. You added a full moveset listing for Bulbasaur when it's just the default moves for its level. Is there any special reason why this needs to be displayed? Schreiber10:09, 18 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well aware. It must have slipped once or twice. I've done quite a lot of summaries with quite a lot of links. It's only natural that I slip up once. SinnohFan22:31, 3 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Ok. Well, actually...You really didn't do anything wrong with the links...It was more of a easier thing to do instead of typing out like [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]] you could have used {{p|Pikachu}} for example. I wasn't aware that you knew the link templates were there...Apologies~ --Psyライダー☮22:44, 3 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
But why is it necessary for you to edit them? I come from Wikipedia and WikiHow and I'm very used to the [[LINK|TEXT]] style. It's not actually easier for me to write {{p|Pikachu}} because I am way too used to LINK/TEXT. I don't find it necessary to have to learn your template style, nor do I find it necessary for you to need to edit my LINK/TEXT style. As long as I redirect them to the correct page, I see very little differences other than I have to memorize another template on one. SinnohFan01:45, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Because Link Templates are official policy here on Bulbapedia. Bulbapedia is not Wikipedia. Our policies are different from theirs...--Psyライダー☮01:54, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Well then how about this: I'll write my summaries and make someone else do the links. I spend plenty of my time doing favors for this site and if it's going to be nitpicky with my templates and force me to change years of experience, then I'll stick with my experience and make someone else do the webbing. SinnohFan01:58, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
No. That's more work for us to follow you around and fix what you can do in one edit. Our policies and rules > Wikipedia rules and polices... --Psyライダー☮02:02, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Show me in the rules where it says I have to web-together pages when I edit. I plan(ned) on finishing up the summaries for the entire anime series, and you can have the summaries without the links or you have the summaries with the links without the template or you don't have the summaries at all. Choose your pick. SinnohFan02:06, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
The templates are policy for a reason; by containing the links within small templates, page bytes are reduced, it makes our jobs easier when re-locating pages, and cuts down on links to disambiguation pages.
We do appreciate your work writing these summaries, but if you're not going to correctly template and format them, you only give us more work; following behind your every edit and fixing your formatting. Time and edits that could be spent writing summaries in the correct format the first time around.
I'm not asking you to memorize much, or completely re-learn coding. It's as simple as using {{p|Pikachu}} instead of [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]], and so on. The link templates aren't hard to remember at all; if you can't remember one, it's not a huge deal, if you mess one up, not a big issue. But if you're going to completely ignore them because you prefer to do it Wikipedia style, then perhaps you'd be better off spending your time editing Wikipedia, rather then coming here and attempting to apply Wikipedia's style to Bulbapedia.
And just an FYI, I'm personally a long-time editor of both Wikipedia and a few other MediaWiki sites, as well as an administrator on a few. I know what you mean when you say you've grown used to the normal link formatting. But you'll just have to trust me when I say that using the link templates here is not only easy, but in most instances, a good deal faster and simpler.
(resetting indent)We have many users here. If you want to cooperate, that's fine. If you don't want to, that's fine too. This and this may help. ht1402:35, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
I'm aware you have many users, but I was the only one who has the initiative to finish the entire anime series' summaries. I'm quite exuberant with not cooperating and leaving you guys with blank summaries. See ya. SinnohFan02:51, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
We just want you to use link templates. It's truly not harder than what you're doing. If you want to leave, that's your choice. All we want it is for you to use them. They are much easier and allow for quicker change if necessary... --Psyライダー☮02:58, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Is it really necessary to change the pictures? In many of them you are changing from full body shots to head shots. It may be clearer, but it shows less of the character. BlakeTalk·Edits23:01, 25 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Yep, considering we're going from jpg to png, I feel its necessary to change them. And to be honest, no one is really going to care if the body is shown or not...and that's even saying if people even look at the pictures...--Psyライダー☮23:04, 25 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Latest comment: 8 March 20105 comments4 people in discussion
I understand your concern. However, though it is Serebii's work, many of Bulbapedia's pages would not have been created withought Serebii. How about we rewrite it in our own words? I think the pictures are OK to use from there, as many pictures come from the site as well. Your thoughts? - 05029400:42, 8 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
Ask Serebii if he's ok with it first, and then use the pics giving credit to them. His email's on Serebii. ht1400:47, 8 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
If you're writing a paper, would you copy and paste information just because "the paper wouldn't have been written without these websites"? No. Taking Serebii's words is stealing and, in most countries, illegal. Please do not use his images, either. --RexRacer00:49, 8 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
This is the wrong attitude to take with this. You are suggesting that Serebii is THE source for all Pokémon information. And that just isn't true. Do not e-mail him to ask. We will get our own information and screenshots. -Sketch00:52, 8 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
No, I wasn't suggesting it was the source, I realize they get their info from other places, though they do get it from either semi-reliable (IE Corocoro) or comepletely reliable (IE Pokémon website) sources. My apologies. - 05029400:56, 8 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
Ash's Party Pic!
Latest comment: 12 March 20105 comments3 people in discussion
Hey Rider, I want to know something. You putted that bad picture template on Ash's Party in DP167 pic and I want to know why. You mentioned two reasons Horribly cropped and blurry.
Well, I cropped it in this way because the whole picture was filled with useless space and some other Pokémon. So, is it looking that badly cropped?
Second, I cropped it from a 1280*720 (1.25 mb size) screenshot taken from a 720p HD quality video and you still think its blurry? It doesn't make any sense. Can you please explain it? Thank you. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫11:11, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
Well, to be honest...The picture in general is ugly...Most of the Pokémon are like horribly drawn or something because they are honestly really ugly, Infernape, Buizel, Staraptor and Gible to be exact, but I don't know if it was like that before or after cropping...I'm not sure any solution, but a different picture would be better...It's just either ugly or blurry...--Psyライダー☮12:17, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
Oh, now I get it. Its definately ugly in that case. I have the full version of this image and the quality in both images is same and its not because of cropping. It's the animation which made it look ugly. Well, if that's the main reason then we should simply remove the pic because its quality is on peek and can't be better by any other way. If you want the full version then I can give you that too but I don't think that's the solution. So, what are we going to do now? ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫12:23, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
Throw the full image up somewhere so we can decide how much to crop it. But yeah, the newer animation style is getting a little odd. I noticed that with the Gible episodes. They've started using bolder lines during some of the "cool" and "funny" scenes. R.A.HunterBlade13:28, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

I, for some reason, am incapable of editing articles. The notice at the top of the page that appears when I attempt to edit an article says that I need to confirm my electronic mail address, which I already have. Please note that I have read and understood the sitenotice, and in the box, nothing is said about this kind of error. Halp. Blue Ninjakoopa22:55, 11 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
Are you sure that the confirmation went through? We've had a lot of 503's and 504's lately. Check in your preferences, and see if you can resend the confirmation email. TTEchidna22:58, 11 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
They've changed the requirements since that, you now need to make a certain (unknown to all but the EB) number of mainspace edits and have been a registered user for a certain time (again, unknown) to edit your userpage. If you can't edit the mainspace then the email can be resent from your preferences. The reasoning behind the userpsace delay is that it helps remind new users that Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a Facebook. Mainspace articles are infinitely more important than userpages here. Werdnae(talk)04:20, 27 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
I know this is an encyclopedia! I just wanted to add basic info and user tags so I wouldn't look like nobody, and I hate Facebook. Anyway, you didn't answer my other question. How do you resend the confirmation E-mail? Star Light17:51, 27 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
You should be able to resend it from your preferences (click the link at the top of the page), if I remember correctly. If you can edit the mainspace articles then your email address should be confirmed and it is just a matter of making edits to the mainspace and waiting. Unfortunately the userpage block is a case of a few people ruining it for everyone. The admins realise that not every new user wants to edit their userpage 1000 times each day, but some do. Previously you could look at the contributions of a large number of users and find that they had never edited the mainspace, just their userpage. They are why it is like this. My apologies if it sounded like I was accusing you, I was just trying to give you some background, although I could should have worded it better. Werdnae(talk)18:55, 27 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
No worries, and thanks, but now I can edit without trouble and didn't have to do anything. Wonder what that was about? Anyway I think I should apologise too, I took it kind of rudely. No hard feelings! I'd like to help here however I can. Star Light23:23, 28 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Well, if you go to, for example Roserade and view the coding after clicking the edit button, you'll be able to figure it out. Using a pre-made template is much easier than copying and pasting the whole coding. If you need more help, I'll be happy to help. --Psyライダー☮06:19, 1 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
The plain PokemonInfobox is for mainspace articles, which are categorized throughout the pedia, however the NonCat one I used on your page is the same, however, it's used mainly, if not exclusively, in the userspace because it doesn't categorize the page. The coding and everything is still the same, it just has no categories. --Psyライダー☮06:32, 1 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
Ah I see, well I'm good now though, except I can't seem to figure out how to add a second type... Hey, does this wiki care if I upload my own picture for my own use? Some wikis care about that... felinoel06:53, 1 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
You can copy and paste the coding for another Pokémon's template and then change it for your likings...and for uploading your image, you'd need to go to the Archives, which you can get to if you go to the side bar and click "upload file" and it will take you to the upload form for uploading your picture. --Psyライダー☮07:01, 1 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
I tend to like to alter the infobox's coding to my liking for my page, which is what I did if you go look at it, which is why I am having such a hard time adding the extra type. I usually just tell a page to access the file that is not there then I click the link given and it says the image doesn't exist would I like to upload it, it is easier this way imo, I was just checking to see if Bulbapedia had any objections about not really wiki material added images. felinoel07:20, 1 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
We do have objections to non-wiki material. If you do too much of it. Userspace limits are in place, and links to the policy are present in the welcome message. As for personal images, you're allowed up to three. You can use however many normal images as you wish on your userpage, such as sprites, screenshots, and other stuff used elsewhere on the wikis... but... pleeeeease don't go nuts.

I dunno for what reason, but Archives is currently locked from editing or uploading from normal users...Only JA and above can edit or upload. As for when it will be unlocked, I'm not sure...Hope this helped at least a bit...D; --Psyライダー☮18:43, 15 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

At least thanks to a better way by the fact of trying to make in this place that is full of people who know or ignores many things. I have no reason to explain to others because at first, I'm not a rookie either, and other users as CoolPikachu know me as I am. And second, I'm not insulted if they misunderstand and that is something that also previously CoolPikachu took it that way All I do
is to notice how things really are for people to see on what is wrong. So just say that you should try to know me better. --Toonamimaniacolatino20:57, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
Uh...Ok, first of all, I really don't know what you just said, but it seems to me that you don't want to stop bashing the Spanish dub, if I'm reading this right. Second, CoolPikachu is an admin and therefore knows what he's doing, and seeing as he can understand your Spanish better than I can, so if he feels you're bashing the dub of another country, and tells you about it, you should stop. Bashing other languages, even if in your opinion is wrong, is not tolerated on BP and again, is a bannable offense. --Psyライダー☮21:23, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
As I said, insulting the dubbing, I'm not doing, but if there is anything to dispute is that one thing is comment, criticize (which can be divided into criticism constructive, destructive) and disorcionar or difamamr. I note only ciertcas things as they really, because I have criteria for making critical but I do so as though destructicva paresca. It is a matter of to interpret the ideas and the language here in which one can communicate has nothing to do. --Toonamimaniacolatino21:40, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
Ok, yeah you have been bashing them...saying "This is one of the thousands of failures of dubbing in Spain" is bashing their dub. They do it differently then in your country it seems. However that is no excuse for saying insults like that in your edit summaries. Saying "Spain is not the only country in the world where the language is spoken and work with other translations (by the way are better)" is implying that Spain does a bad job at dubbing, and therefore is bashing them and their work. If you don't like their job of doing it, then just ignore it and when you type out edit summaries, leave the jabs at Spain out of them. It's only a matter of time before a user is offended by your comments...--Psyライダー☮21:56, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Ok, sure. We don't want users to remove comments from their talk pages. It allows the staff to see everything or something, and the welcome template provides links that would be useful toward any user, new or seasoned. However, talk pages can be archived by moving them, like "User talk:EarthKwake/Archive 1".

Stop being an arrogant jerk OK? I don't know what your problem is, but it needs to stop, seriously. I did nothing wrong to you other than post a warning about you deleting comments, which by Bulbapedia rules, is not allowed. You did not have to be such a jerk and comment back so rudely. I may not be an admin, but I'm quite qualified to post warnings on user's pages after they break the rules. Also, talk page comments are to be kept on the talk page because it is an admin's job to keep track of things, got it? I'd also like to point out the Code of Conduct, read it and stop being such a jerk to everyone, especially a Junior Admin like Jello.
