User talk:RisingBadge55

Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, RisingBadge55!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:

• For a basic overview of wiki code, see this page.
• The manual of style is very important. Make sure to read it. It outlines all official policies of Bulbapedia.
• The word Pokémon is spelled with a capital P and an accented é. The P, of course, is accessed easily by holding Shift and pressing the P key, while the é can be accessed using Alt + 130 or Alt + 0233 on a Windows computer, and Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can click it in the character palette below the editbox.
• The word Poké Ball is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a captial B (which is, again, accessed by holding Shift and pressing the B key). The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
• The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
• On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
• The use of link templates is official policy. For an explanation on their use, see the page on shortlinks.
• If you happen to spot a vandal in the recent changes that has not been dealt with, please see this page for how to deal with it.
• A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at this page. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found here, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found here.
• A list of the admins that you can contact in case of a problem, can be found here.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here!PokeManiac102 00:53, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Pokémon

Please make sure to accent that é. All the time. It's in the character palette. TTEchidna^G_SDS! 00:52, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Once again, it's "Pokémon," not "Pokemon." Please try to remember that. --ニョロトノ666 02:30, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

A few things about your Volkner edit...

1. We don't speculate around here. Until it's confirmed that Volkner becomes champion, we won't allow that on pages.
2. It's Volkner, not Volner; and it's Pokémon, not Pokemon.
3. Try to link to other pages when applicable. I found five instances, possibly more, where it would have been appropriate to link in that post.

Does that explain everything? --Martonimos_{((Argh|Blargh))} 11:43, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Link Templates

Please use link templates when linking to stuff such as Pokémon names, attacks, and the like. For example, {{p|Heatran}} instead of just [[Heatran]]. This is so you don't unintentionally link to a disambiguation page.

For a full crash course on link templates, look at the list of link templates. ----^KK ^llⁿn 20:56, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
