Question for all people who sees this

I've been screwing up a lot on Bulbapedia, and I was wanting to know, how do you memorize the Manual of Style?

It's like school, really; Study it hard and you'll have it down in no time! :D CuboneKing 22:52, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Another Question

How do I become an administrator?

Special Notice

For those who care, I will probably not be on Bulbapedia for the 25th because of Christmas, so feel free to say anything on my Talk Page that you feel I should know. Thank you, and have a nice Christmas. Pokedex493 03:35, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Pokedex493!

Here are a few links to help you get started:

The Manual of Style, or MoS, outlines the format of all pages on Bulbapedia.

Our friendly team of staff are here to help! Talk to them if you have any questions or problems with Bulbapedia.

On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~), or by using the "Your signature with a timestamp" (button_sig.png) button at the top of the edit window.

On Bulbapedia, the ability to edit personal userpages is a privilege. Per our userpage policy, this must be earned by first making constructive edits to the mainspace. Once you can, remember to keep userspace edits (edits to User:Pokedex493) to a minimum.

For a complete list of policies and editing advice, please see the Welcome Portal.
 Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

é

Pokémon is spelt with an e-acute, or é. You can type this by pressing Alt+130 on the number pad of your keyboard (if you have one), or by using the character palette below the editbox.--Cold (talk) 22:23, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Link Templates

Nice to see you're using link templates, but they require two {'s and not one. Victini, not {p|Victini}. See the difference?--Cold (talk) 16:16, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk page

Please do not add personal content to your talk page, as user talk pages are only meant for communications with the user it belongs to. In time, if you make contstructive edits to Bulbapedia's encyclopedic pages, you will earn the ability to make a user page where you can put all your personal content. Btw, the scientific name for the fear of dolls is called "pediophobia". --ZestyCactus 18:02, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

also when getting a message on your Talk page...reply on your Talk page.....also don't sign your comments after forgetting to sign them..messes up the time or something Ataro 22:30, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Your hack games

Your hack games and everything in them are not notable. Firstly, only extremely notable hack games are even mentioned, since they are actually illegal. This also means that unreleased hack games are never notable. Secondly, subjects such as that should never be added to pages by their creator or a close friend. Doing so is considered advertising, and is not allowed. Please do not add them to pages any more, or you may be faced with a block. Thanks. Werdnae (talk) 22:18, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Sonic the Hedgehog? Seriously...this is a Pokemon Site...you can't just call Sonic a Pokemon just because he appears in a hack game if you could then the entire Touhou cast would have their own pages Ataro 22:25, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Resigning Posts

If you forget to sign the first time don't go back and add your signature afterwards. It messes up the timestamp and makes it hard to see who said what to who and when they said it. If you do forget to sign your post instead put {{unsigned|Pokedex493}} which will display as - unsigned comment from Pokedex493 (talkcontribs) . Though of course you should always try to sign your posts the first time. Thank you for your time.—Beligaronia (talk) 22:49, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Okay. Sorry. I'm new here so I don't know everything about this site. Pokedex493 22:51, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Posting on talk pages

Talk pages are not for posting your opinions on something, or discussing the subject as if it was a forum thread. They're there for people to discuss the article itself and how to improve it. For more info, see this page, please. ▫▫ティナ 19:27, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

"Blake Kick"

Rather can creating the article for a misspelling, could you please fix the link? By doing that, it'll go off the wanted pages by tomorrow. If there is no link, just leave it alone. Thanks, Turtwig's A-B-Cs (talk | contribs) 20:04, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Hey,

You're not doing a horrible job. While I admit you might not be doing as well as you could be, I've certainly seen worse. You're new here, and new users are bound to make mistakes sometimes. Hell, when I started out, I made nothing but mistakes. Just give the MOS a read if you haven't already, keep on editing what you feel needs changing, and you'll be fine. Everything people have told you you were doing wrong so far? It's to help you become a better editor in the future. Don't take it too hard.--Cold (talk) 20:20, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Userspace limits

Hi. I noticed you have been editing the User: namespace a lot recently. Please don't do it any more, though. Bulbapedia's Userspace policy restricts the amount you can edit your userpage: no more than three edits per day. This policy was instated to prevent strain on our server, and also to promote people helping out in the mainspace. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so help us out by contributing to some articles before coming back to your personal userpage. The more often you edit in the mainspace, the more you will be allowed to edit your userpage. Thanks! ----Cold (talk) 20:21, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Using your talk page as a substitute for your userpage/personal content is against the userspace policy so I would suggest you leave your talk page alone. Talk pages are for discussion about Bulbapedia only. Thanks. Jellotalk 21:24, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
I'd just like to remind you about this, since you are still using your talk page as a substitute for your userpage. Doing so is against the userspace policy; talk pages are for discussion about Bulbapedia only. --SnorlaxMonster 00:17, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Hold on!

If you did not read your last warning, then please read it now. You have edited the User: namespace too much. In the past, no one was allowed to edit their userpages because some users were over-editing their own userpages. Your personal editing privileges can be taken away, so please do not edit your page any more for now. Instead, how about helping contribute to some of Bulbapedia's many articles? Thank you. -- Jellotalk 19:23, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Re: Welcome

I do thank you for your welcoming message. How rude of me not to reply to you right away. --OminousWind 10:52, 24 December 2010 (UTC) Your welcome. I'm doing as best as I can. I wish you luck on editing. Pokedex493 00:55, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Userspace rights

You are now in abuse due to your constant edits to the userspace. In the meantime, please contribute to Bulbapedia. Thanks! --CoolPikachu! 03:18, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Exactly how long am I blocked from editing my Userspace? Pokedex493 03:33, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
I won't give an amount of time. It depends on your behavior and contribution to Bulbapedia as a whole. --CoolPikachu! 08:53, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
