User talk:ArghyaAnimecrazy

Welcome to Bulbapedia, ArghyaAnimecrazy!

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules: Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct. Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around. Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page. Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style. You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy. Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page. If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite. Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment. For more handy links, see the welcome portal.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here!   --Pokemaster97 21:39, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Edit Warring

Please stop re-adding the removed synopsis from BW108. It's considered edit warring, which is a blockable offense on Bulbapedia. Please do not edit war in the future. Thank you. --Pokemaster97 02:42, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

Hidden note

Please do not remove hidden notes from the trivia section, they are there to notify users what not to add. Thank you.--ForceFire 01:04, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Edit warring 2

As above, please stop re-adding the things that are being removed on XY117. If you have a disagreement with another user, please try to settle it through discussion rather than by just silently redoing your edits. Thank you. Tiddlywinks (talk) 21:56, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk pages

Please, never edit archived talk pages. And never edit in old, unrelated sections of a talk page. If you want to talk to another person on Bulbapedia, use their current talk page, and start a new section (you can easily use the "+" button at the top of the page for this).

XY117

I'm going to copy all this here just because there's not really a better way.

(For the record, the below comes from here.)

Sub: The Summary of XY117:

Hey Tiddlywinks, I don't think the usage of 'runagate' instead of 'renegade' matters much,or using that word 'jocund' is by any way misfit with the context.Jovial,jocund and cheerful all are synonyms,so they can be used without any restriction,and Wordsworth has used that phrase in 'The Daffodils',so it is not wrong. I also disagree with your views that the last line is erroneous-'leaving their newfound friend in an optimistic and benevolent world which it shouldn't fear living in'.

Would u please specify my mistakes there? Thanks

Both "runagate" and "jocund" are incredibly obscure/awkward words. ("Runagate" I would have initially said wasn't even a word, until I searched a dictionary and found an entry. "Jocund" on the other hand I do recognize, but still only barely.) This makes them inappropriate to use. That's why I either replaced or removed them.

It's worth noting that I haven't seen this episode. But that last line that you wrote seemed to me in part too pat and in part awkward. If I were to try to point to a particular problem, I'd say that you can't call the "world" "optimistic" or "benevolent"; beings in a world can be optimistic or benevolent, but not the "world". Also, there's plenty of evidence that the Pokemon world as a whole isn't "benevolent" anyway (perhaps a majority, but certainly not everything).

I will also say about the other things you again tried to add back, "caustic" usually relates to sarcasm, to speech, and Phantump can't exactly speak, so it's at best a very awkward word to try to ascribe to it; and "the stump Pokemon" is just a completely pointless abstraction, there's just no reason to not identify it more directly.

(And, just in case: please continue the conversation here.)
