Spellings

Just want to let you know that you have a few misspellings on the page Vast Ice Mountain. - unsigned comment from Mudkipluvr4ever (talkcontribs)

I didn't create the page. All I did was clean it up and fix the spelling. Look in the page history to see who really created it. Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 20:56, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Cartoon Network Video

Just so you know, several season-one episodes are missing from Cartoon Network Video. Knowing which episodes are missing might help you with your research. They are as follows:

Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden isn't missing, but it's placed where The Path to the Pokémon League should be for some strange reason. The two episodes after that by Japanese count are also not missing; since those two episodes started season two in the dub after a little reordering (the dub skipped from EP051 to EP054 and ended season one with EP057, then started season two with EP052/EP053 before returning to sequence in EP058), those two episodes are found with the rest of season two.

Also note that, of the two seasons Cartoon Network uploaded to the video service in mass, only season one (labelled as Indigo League in the left side menu once the Pokémon tab is open) has missing episodes. Season two (labelled as Adventures on the Orange Islands, the label itself has an error in it) is available in its entirety; meaning you can safely get up to Charizard Chills (the last episode of season two) without speed bumps. Anything in the Orange Islands beyond that, and you'll have to hope Cartoon Network uploads season three. --Shiningpikablu252 19:52, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for giving me this information, this will probably help my research a lot. Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 20:24, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

About spoiler links

Yeah, I'm sorry about those links, I understand perfectly what you mean. I can explain: the thing is following: I don't like (you could even say "I hate") links that are rediredted, so I prefer the links that take you straightly to the page, not through redirection. I hope you understand what I mean. --FinnishPokéFan92 19:00, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
PS. Happy new year 2010.

It creates spoilers. If you see here, it says to do it in the Manual of Style, meaning that it must be done. Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 19:25, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
There is nothing wrong with redirects, as long as they will stay at that page name and not give a double redirect further down the track. /2c —darklordtrom 22:04, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
If there is nothing wrong with them, why do many people try to fix them? Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 23:22, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
It looks better to have perfect linking, apparently. —darklordtrom 21:01, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Regarding the redirect

I know what it said, but think about it. Victory Road isn't a part of Johto. Also, even if the redirect were to be made, Johto should be capitalized. ht14 16:13, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

True, but some people might make the mistake of thinking it's in Johto due to it being in GSCHGSS. Also, the Johto capitalization thing was something I missed. Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 16:15, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
View everything on the whole! That's what I try to think. ht14 16:16, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Not quite stubs, but something is lacking...

Would it be logical to create a template--like the template used to classify articles for being stubs--that designates book articles as needing pictures of their covers (or otherwise stating that the article 'is lacking important pictures'?) Several books appear to lack pictures of their covers, most notably the book Battle for the Zephyr Badge. Along this, should location stubs possess a similar 'this article needs pictures', to provide a picture of the area described? For example, the article for Sayda Island does not have a picture. - unsigned comment from Steph (talkcontribs)

(Err, sorry I did not sign my earlier statement...I seemed to have forgotten...I will sign this one, which I hope shall partially suffice as it was made near the initial post...)Steph 03:26, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
It's fine! Everybody sometimes forgets to sign. CuboneKing 03:34, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
You should ask an administrator this question, though it seems like a good idea. Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 15:46, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
BUTTING IN BUT RELATED: I'm gonna fiddle around with the book infobox tonight and see if I can make "preceded/succeeded" an optional parameter... see I made the infobox back when there were like, 5 book articles and I didn't forsee, y'know, non-anime-chapter-book-books. :P ZestyCactus 01:17, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
