User talk:C.Ezra.M

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Bfdifan2006!

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!   GrammarFreak01 (talk) 23:38, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Welcoming users

Only welcome users when they've made at least one edit, don't just welcome every new user that signs up, as they may be spambot or won't be active users (as in they just sign up and not do anything).--ForceFire 07:38, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

I will be aware of this. --Bfdifan2006 10:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

Template:Sort

As I noted on the template talk page, your edits to Photography and Cameron broke the sorting, would you mind fixing them up? --Spriteit (talk) 00:21, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Yes, I will do that by restoring to version where sorting was not broken. However, I will do it later, as I have assignments today. --Bfdifan2006_{something to say?} 06:01, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Template

Could also be used for Techno Blast, if the template swaps Rock for Electric, and maybe other moves with more than one animation, like Secret Power? Eridanus (talk) 11:16, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for the idea. However, I've already have done 2 User: namespace edits today. --Bfdifan2006_{something to say?} 11:26, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

Capitalization

There's no reason for us to have redirects with different capitalizations. Searching is not case sensitive, and unnecessary redirects would only promote bad links. Tiddlywinks (talk) 22:27, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

I did it to remove redlinks because links are case-sensitive, except the first letter. --Bfdifan2006_{something to say?} 18:42, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Bad capitalizations should still not be redirects. A red link should kind of tell you that you've screwed up the capitalization or something; creating the redirect is not the right answer. If pages have red links for bad capitalizations, they should be fixed. Tiddlywinks (talk) 00:15, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

This page should only list protected pages that link to Mew Glitch. --Bfdifan2006_{something to say?} 15:25, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

Welcoming users

I've been on Bulbapedia for a long time, so it was rather impolite to post a welcoming box on my Usertalk page. I insist you delete it as soon as possible. Mootagen (talk) 11:43, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

A rule is that the {{welcome}} is placed not right after registration, but after the user makes their first edit on this site. --Bfdifan2006_{something to say?} 11:55, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

I've already made 6 edits and the first one in January! Mootagen (talk) 12:06, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

It doesn't mean that you immediately get one right after your first edit! Bots don't do this on this site! --Bfdifan2006_{something to say?} 12:13, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

Dear Bfdifan, I just want to make that welcoming box disappear. I don't need it. What's the problem? Mootagen (talk) 12:14, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
