User talk:DJWolfy/Archive 2

A few rules on my talk page:

• Use English or Romanian. Using other languages will not help me understand you.
• Write gramatically correct. If you want me to understand what you wrote, at least write it correct. Don't expect me to decipher your words. I'm not the most correctly grammatical person in the world, but at least I'm doing my best for others to understand me.
• Always leave new messages at the bottom of the page. Otherwise, if you want to say something personal to me, email me.
• Be respectful. As long as I show you respect, you show me the same.

"Opening Quote"

Ok,thank you,well I like your user page,but I would like it in blue style.Can I use it ? And if yes,how can I make it blue ?--DJWolfy. 14:13, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Sure, just say who made the original userpage. :P - In order to have a blue userpage, you're gonna have to do a lot of Ctrl + F and change the templates E1E1E1 and 444444 and their lightness to blue, you're gonna have to do a lot of previewing though. Masatoshitalk 14:31, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

"Ending Quote"

I hope this answers your confusion.

Archiving your talk

Hello. I noticed that you've archived your talkpage. Unfortunately, you moved it to DJWolfy/Archive 1, which is in the mainspace. User talk page archives should always be in the user talk namespace. I moved it to the correct title, so don't worry about it anymore, but watch out for this happening again in the future. Thanks! TyraniThrone 19:27, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Sorry,I'm quite new in this archive thing.How can I make sure this won't happen again?What is the correct way of moving it?

----DJWolfy 19:54, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Keep "User talk:" in the title when moving the talkpage--SandmanDP 19:59, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

I see,thank you!----DJWolfy 20:31, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Userpage editing

I've noticed you have made more than three edits to your userpage today. Instead of doing that, use the preview button so you can make all the edits at one rather than making smaller edits bit by bit on your page. Please and thank you. Frozen Fennec 16:28, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

I know,but I didn't noticed the mistake only later,so I had no choice.But why is this policy against editing your userpage more than 3 times?I mean,who does affect beside the person's userpage?----DJWolfy 17:34, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

The site's server actually... the thing that keeps the site running. The userspace limit keeps the site from overloading and encountering errors--SandmanDP 17:36, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

It also helps keep it from clogging up the Recent Changes part of the site as well. Do hope you understand. Frozen Fennec 17:39, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

I do,I apologize for my mistake,but I was sort-of forced because I didn't noticed the mistakes due to the fact that I edited the whole page,and there were small details that escaped me.I'll try my best in order to avoid such things in my future editings.And btw,do you two encounter the 503 error ? I encounter it at least 5 times a day.----DJWolfy 17:43, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

I do encounter a 503 error from time to time but MAGNEDETH (wiki owner/maintainer) is already aware of the 503 error if I remember correctly. Frozen Fennec 17:45, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

I'm so sorry

You'll notice my new userpage construction is basically yours and Masatoshi. It's obviously not ready. I meant to build it first, ask, then submit, but I pressed Save page instead of show preview. I promise, besides the obvious information customizations to change dimensions, colors and shapes so it wouldn't be the exact same. I just hope you and Masatoshi can give me your blessing.--SandmanDP 17:52, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Don't worry,you can copy it entirely if you wish.It doesn't botter me.----DJWolfy 17:54, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

I can't copy it entirely... that's identity theft, and I'm not like that :P--SandmanDP 17:55, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Well,I meant the template,but maybe we have the same things in common so it wouldn't be identity theft.:P Btw if you find out how to change the color of that white/grey square in which are the userboxes,let me know.It's the only thing I can't manage to edit it.----DJWolfy 17:58, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for the help--SandmanDP 00:10, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Do you mean usertags? Frozen Fennec 00:18, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Me ?----DJWolfy 00:23, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Yes you. If you mean the background of the various usertag/boxes, you would have to go to where you got them from on here, go to edit the page on that usertag/box template and edit it, then copy it and paste it on your page. Frozen Fennec 00:27, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

I know,but I have on my page a lot of them..so I guess I know how to get them,if that is what you meant.----DJWolfy 00:29, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Favorite Pokemon box

Not sure if you have widescreen on your computer/laptop or not but I see that when I look at your userpage it stretches the width of the page a bit. Could reduce it from 12 to 11 and it will still look nice. Not trying to say what to do, just a minor suggestion if you don't have widescreen is all. Frozen Fennec 19:33, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Well my screen has aproximately 50 cm.I've reached my userpace limits per today,but you're welcome to edit it and if I don't like it I'll just reverse it back :p.----DJWolfy 19:37, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Ah, alright then. Maybe at another time if there might be an error needing fixing. Focusing on editing deck templates (for the Pokemon Card Game on GBC) today. Frozen Fennec 19:39, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Ok,hey btw do you happen to know a link to both the original Pokémon logo and motto put togheter(png)? I would need them to use it on my "This user's favorite anime thing"----DJWolfy 19:41, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Not at all. Although going to the Gotta Catch 'em All and Pokémon page shows both parts. I suppose you could have them centered and stacked. However I feel simply using the Pokémon logo from the Pokémon page would be good enough. Gotta Catch 'em All just applies to the games. Frozen Fennec 19:51, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Move descriptions

Hi, I replied to your comment about move descriptions on talk page's talk page before, but I went away for a while and only just noticed your reply. Since I thought it would be weird to have a conversation between the two of us on her talk page, I decided to reply here. To answer your question, the template's talk page contains all the info you were interested in. --SnorlaxMonster 04:39, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks ! But I don't understand the "List of game descriptions that should be present for moves introduced in each generation" section. It says there that RSE is present in Generation I, II and III but not in IV and V while BW is present in all. I mean, RSE isn't a part of generation IV and V but is it a part of the first 2 also ?----DJWolfy 08:57, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Generation I means moves introduced in Generation I, while Generation V means moves introduced in Generation V. So moves introduced in Generation I are still present in Generation III. --SnorlaxMonster 09:17, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

I understand, well, for now I'm doing small edits each day cause I do not have the necessary time due to exams, plus I have 3 seasons left from DP to see and the other two from BW. As soon as I get through with all of these, I will work more on the wiki.----DJWolfy 09:25, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Btw,do do you have any ideea where I could watch Winter Games? I've been trying to find it, but with no chances of success.----DJWolfy 09:46, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

No idea, sorry. The article says it was released on a UK VHS, but I doubt that would be easy to find (and it's a VHS...). Online I have no idea. Pokémon.com may upload it eventually. --SnorlaxMonster 10:01, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Nope, they don't have it. But I found the other one with the Stantler though,the article had no synopsis but I was able to complete it.----DJWolfy 10:16, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

WWWHHHYYYYY

WHY did you put a bunch of Pokemon under "other" major appearances?? The major appearances are for non-page worthy Pokemon that still played a major role, and now you've gone and separated them by an arbitrary distinction. An "other" section is only created when that Pokemon is owned by a major character and has its own page. WHAT WAS THE REASONING FOR THIS?? -- MAGNEDETH 17:57, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Well, I thought that "other" section was if its role was between major and minor. I am truly sorry and I will be more careful from now on.----DJWolfy 18:02, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Actually I've seen the Pokémon of major characters in the major appearance section (Ash's Pikachu, Jessie and Lucy's Seviper,Brock's Sudowoodo and so on) and that's why I thought the other is for Pokémon who had a bigger role than a minor appearance.----DJWolfy 18:06, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

I'll admit, it probably isn't written down anywhere. Me and Kenji-girl decided on a formatting, and just went with it. There are degrees on how important some main character Pokemon are and thusly determines if they do or don't get their own section. I'm going to have to look into it. I'm sorry for the "fly off the handle" response, but I guess if you encounter a formatting decision that isn't written down anywhere, check other pages to confirm whats going on. And then tell someone that it should be written down somewhere. -- MAGNEDETH 19:15, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Well, you see I actually enjoy organising stuff. It is in my DNA I think. Joking, but seriously I'm pretty skilled in doing organisatory work so I really want to arrange each Pokémon's anime section when I have the time to do it. I've started from Bulbasaur and currently I've put a flagmark on Mankey. Therefore if you would give me a small guide or instructions in how they should appear by importance, I'll definitely be glad to help out.----DJWolfy 19:21, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

The sections are rather simple in their layout:

In the case of no special Pokemon, it's just the two sections. Major on top, Minor on the bottom, just like Nidoking. You can expand the blurbs if you want, but that usually takes a lot of extra time and may be best left for another project entirely.

If we're talking about a Pokemon that does have its own page, it's a little more work, but still pretty simple. Lets use Sudowoodo as an example:

==In the anime== (main heading)

===Major appearances=== (main secondary)

====Brock's Sudowoodo==== (sub secondary)

====Other==== (sub secondary)

===Minor appearances=== (main secondary)

===Pokedex entries=== (main secondary)

So you've got the main headings that are always there, but then you've got the sub heading for the owned Pokemon. That section is only for info on that owned Pokemon, and those headings only get used if the Pokemon has its own page. Otherwise, it would just go in Major and get no specific heading. The "Other" section is for major appearances that don't have their own page. There-in, an "other" heading is only used if there is a previous sub heading. I hope this makes sense. -- MAGNEDETH 20:01, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Taking this into account, wouldn't you contradict yourself ? You said "The "Other" section is for major appearances that don't have their own page." And that Nidoking doesn't have his own page rather he is featured on his trainer's page. And also by putting Brock's Pokémon in the major section you contradict again "An "other" section is only created when that Pokemon is owned by a major character and has its own page".----DJWolfy 20:13, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Let's see if i can simplify this more:

Nidoking has no page of main character ownership. No "spotlights" if you will. Gary owns one, but it doesn't have its own page, so on the Nidoking species page, it is just listed as a major appearance, along with other Nidoking that have also had major appearances in episodes. Because there is no "spotlight", then an "Other" section is not necessary.

Brock's Sudowoodo has its own page, a spotlight, so it is listed as a major appearance. The Other section is for other Sudowoodo that have appeared, but obviously aren't Brock's. -- MAGNEDETH 20:22, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

I'm really trying to understand but the "other" thing keeps taking me to what I thought in the first place. So if a Nidoking isn't owned by nobody but still has a significant part in the story he is in the other, while if he is under ownership then he is in the major ?----DJWolfy 20:26, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

I don't know how much better I can explain this.

1. You're dealing with a Pokemon that DOES NOT have any ownership (like Nidoking)
2. That page gets only major and minor appearances.

ok? next:

1. You're dealing with a Pokemon that DOES have ownership (Sudowoodo)
2. That page gets a spotlight sub section
3. After the spotlight, it gets an other section

Basically, a species page only gets an other section if it has an ownership spotlight. -- MAGNEDETH 20:50, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

I know, I can be a real stress sometimes, but I'm doing it only for the sake of Bulbapedia and Pokéfans all over the world.

So Pokémon with ownership -> major appearances, Pokémon without ownership but still contribute to the scenario -> Other. Pokémon who just appear as a background addition -> Minor

If there is a Pokémon who isn't under ownership at all but contribute to the story then there is no other section,but if there is a Pokémon with ownership but it is owned by a trainer who is just a background addition or brief appearance -> Minor

Right ?----DJWolfy 20:55, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

I don't know. I can't tell how you're spinning this. YOU are confusing ME. -- MAGNEDETH 21:08, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Ok,let's take Arcanine as an example. Gary has one => Major, Officer Jenny and Tucker have an arcanine but they are in the "Other" section. The same thing applies for Ramona and Keegan who togheter have three Arcanine which along with some fire stones were the focus of an episode. Also, an Arcanine battled against Ash's Pikachu in the Indigo League who upon defeating the Arcanine advanced in the next round. Finally Officer Jenny used an Arcanine to track down J in DP020 => Minor.

So ?

I apologise for now, but I will respond to what you will answer me tomorrow due to being late in my time zone and I have to get up early. Therefore we shall continue our discussion tomorrow and I hope this matter shall be clarified. I only wish for the best. Good night for now Chief !----DJWolfy 21:30, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Right now Arcanine is fine. Gary has a spotlight in the major section, and the rest don't have articles, so they're just listed as "other" majors. -- MAGNEDETH 21:46, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Neither has Oscar's Nidoking who only makes appearances in that episode twice but he is still listed in the "Major" plus the Arcanine from Cloud Arcanine cleary can't be minor since it is the focus of the whole episode.----DJWolfy 11:59, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Sagas

Battle Frontier = Kanto Region in anime. -Hikaru Wazana 19:23- 9 March 2012

Sorry, I knew it was during the battle frontier but I though Hoenn because most of the advanced series takes place there. I think I did that same mistake on James' Mime Jr.----DJWolfy 19:26, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

No problem. ^-^ -Hikaru Wazana 19:30- 9 March 2012

The Preview Button

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Changes button... Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Thanks! --SnorlaxMonster 05:29, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

I know, sorry for that, but I did preview and still didn't notice the mistake. I'll try to be more careful in the near future.----DJWolfy 08:00, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

Welcoming Users

When welcoming users please use the {{subst:welcome}} template instead of copying the coding manually. The talk pages you created are messing up the page because you did it without the template. Please remember to use the template in the future (it can be found in the character palette below). Thanks for understanding. --Pokemaster97 20:22, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Sorry for that, I didn't notice it, it's much easier that way, thanks !----DJWolfy 20:25, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

It's all good, just making sure you're aware. :) --Pokemaster97 20:27, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

An image from DP077

I wanted to add an image of the Sakura and Tomoyo look-a-likes that I believe to be of higher quality than the one that you posted. Do you mind if I change it, or should I show you the image first? If it's the latter, is there anything wrong in posting an external link to an image here? ivantuga2 03:18, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
