Hello. This is Bfdifan2006.
My adventure with Bulbapedia began when I was a user previously known as TheICTLiker4, then as Keyacom, at 5th April 2018. However, in March 2020, I was prepared for global user rename and it stopped on Bulbanews.
Proofs:
- User talk:Keyacom#Username change request
- Message from the Editor, April 2, 2020
I did incorporate elements from my old userpage, such as my list of Shiny Pokémon, most usertags, and the "Pokémon of the Day" box below.
Introduction (taken from my old userpage)
Pokémon of the Day!

Wingull is the Pokémon that is associated with today.

[...] I'm a fan of Pokémon. I began being interested as Pokémon GO was finally released in 2016. Then, I started playing in the summer and my first Pokémon was a Charmander. I stopped playing because I didn't understand the tedious Pokémon Trainer Club login process. But after nearly 2 years or so, I have started again, with a completely new account. My first Pokémon was a Bulbasaur.
Why I like Pokémon
In 2017 or so, one of my classmates had a phone and shown me, how to get and play Pokémon FireRed on an emulator, and I quickly started downloading more emulators and games. I've played games in all 8 generations. I'm also planning to also play Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu. But on my 13th birthday, I received a Nintendo 2DS and a cartridge of Pokémon Sun. However, before Christmas Eve 2019, I decided to play Pokémon Sword. I no longer have the 2DS, but I have a Nintendo Switch Lite. I play both Pokémon Sword and Shield.
My Bulbapedia work
If you are from the staff, don't just ignore my messages on talk pages. Everyone deserves to be noticed. I do a lot of work with templates, so they can be the best - like no one ever was! Despite his utmost effort to never talk before big changes, I appreciate all other aspects of Team Rocket Grunt's work to make good templates. I also admire Oneofthosedf's efforts to merge the TM and Move Tutor availability templates for move pages because right now, these tables take too much space.
I also admire the efforts of Lakelimbo (or just Lake). The Bulbapedia UI/UX needs to be updated to modern Web standards. I don't want Bulbapedia to look half made by TTEchidna despite him actually doing that.
As for myself, I don't really have a specific field of speciality, but most of my edits are to pages about Pokémon. I also quite often edit move/Ability/item pages, and contribute to Project GlitchDex. A large part of my edits is just adding new information, removing unnecessary information, and correcting mistakes.
My desires
Things I can't do:
- Change the
{{roundy}}
templates to make sure there are no vendor-prefixed properties. They're now completely unnecessary.
- Add 5px, 15px and 20px border radius classes to MediaWiki:Common.css.
- Get these extensions:
- Cargo - move pages are, for now, really tedious to update.
- Editcount - possibly bring back the top contributors list?
- HotCat - Although Bulbapedia mainly categorizes pages through templates, this extension could come VERY useful.
- Scribunto - this could potentially relieve server load in MANY cases. And this would finally teach me how to use Lua.
- TemplateStyles - may reduce load on some templates.
- VisualEditor - not a big priority, but can help some inexperienced users.
- Introduce a user rank between autoconfirmed users and Retired Staff.
Things I could do, but would require admin approval:
- Mainspace many of my drafts, both articles and templates.
And my greatest desire of all: do many things I had to overdue due to me not being in the staff! It's bad that they now rarely look at pages needing attention right now. It's like authorities in the real world not doing anything, with it only to be done by unbiased people.
I sometimes clamor for staff attention for some of my most useful contributions (mainly drafts). This means I'm rather not a WikiGnome.
Useful tips for wiki editing
- Do you want to view names of system messages instead of system messages themselves?
- If the URL has "
index.php
" after the slash character (/
), append "&uselang=qqx
".
- Otherwise, append "
?uselang=qqx
".
- If you work a lot with templates, use this site to check if the number of braces is correct!
Calculating standard deviations, with a Pokémon example
The formula for the standard deviation is .
I know it all looks like complex math, but it really isn't. Here are the steps:
- Input data
- Let's say, the data is an array of numbers that corresponds to Shuckle's base stats: 20, 10, 230, 10, 230, 5. 20 is , 10 is , etc.
- Subtract (mean) from each number
- The mean is .

- Sum the squared differences

- For the sake of simplicity, is .
- Calculate the variance
- The variance is the mean of the sum you just obtained: .
- Calculate the standard deviation
- The standard deviation is the square root of the variance:

My Shinies
Not including the Red Gyarados or the Shiny Zeraora, which anyone can have.
Once I feel like it, I will update the list.
- ↑ On 1 March 2020, there was an event, during which Gengar and Nidorino have appeared more frequently in Raid Battles. Also, there was an increased chance for them being Shiny.
- ↑ Previously 2, one was traded for a Mewtwo.
- ↑ On 17 August 2019, there was an event, during which Suicune has appeared more frequently in Raid Battles. Also, there was an increased chance for it being Shiny.
Pokémon Omega Ruby - Professor Oak's Challenge
This Professor Oak's Challenge in Pokémon Omega Ruby is a series of streams I do on Twitch. I then upload their replays on YouTube, 1 day after the stream.
After episode 7, I stopped streaming due to a poll on my Discord server whether to stream on YouTube or to continue doing so on Twitch. Streaming on YouTube won the poll.
Egg groups/battle types
The No Eggs Discovered group is not included, as it contains Pokémon of every type. The Ditto group is also not included because Ditto is its only member.
Sandbox
I'm currently working on a move image box for Weather Ball to make sure I can remove the article from the category of pages where template include size is exceeded.
List of subpages
This list is transcluded directly from Special:PrefixIndex/User:Bfdifan2006/, so no need to update it manually.
