User talk:Dougbro1

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Dougbro1!

Thank you for joining our community! By creating an account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. This is a brief introduction to Bulbapedia's rules and resources to help you get started: All users are expected to follow the code of conduct and to be kind to one another. If you have a question, check out our FAQ; the manual of style provides detailed editing guidance, and the wikicode page provides details about how to use wikicode. You can always ask for help by contacting a staff member. Please preview your edits before saving them; this helps you double-check your changes and reduces the need for repeated minor edits. Use talk pages to discuss changes and resolve editing disputes. Creating a userpage is allowed after you've added to the encyclopedia; for more details, see the userspace policy. Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~) so people know who is commenting. This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment. For more handy links and information, check out the welcome portal.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here!   Landfish7 02:57, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

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 Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --Landfish7 02:57, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

The problem for me was that I was satisfied with my edits upon using the preview function, then realized a little later on that other parts of the page needed edits. I'll try to review the whole page in Preview instead of just the edits I made in the future if I can so as to avoid this in the future. Thanks for letting me know!

I've been there. No need to worry! As long as it doesn't become a habit you'll be fine. Have a good day! Landfish7 16:49, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
