Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, ShinyPachirisu!

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.
  • If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:ShinyPachirisu/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
  • 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! MAGNEDETH 21:26, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

You love Pachirisu, too? Or is that just your name?PL12 02:17, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Signiture

Well, first off, what do you want your signiture to look like?PL12 13:14, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Edits

PLEASE preview your edits. if you dont, it floods the changes page. thank you. MAGNEDETH 21:20, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Aaaaaah!

This is just me, but do you think you could just make all your edits at once and use the preview button instead of repeatedly editing your userpage? It's clogging up the recent changes royally... --ニョロトノ666 21:21, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Umm.

I'm really not sure but ask TTEchinda or another admin cause Megenth made the one i have--CoolPikachu! 23:36, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

You go to the "my preferences" link in the upper-right corner, enter the code for your signature in the "nickname" field, and check the "raw signatures" box beneath that. Then just hit save. Wikicoding and HTML work for the signature code, but you can always get someone to help you with it if you can't do it yourself. Before you edit your sig, take a look at the signature policy and make sure yours will fit. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 09:12, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Testing

No sprites in sigs, sorry, so...

Just in case you are still wondering, the link mto your talk page wouldn't work because you were already on your talk page! MoldyOrange 16:26, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

I realised that not long after I made the sig... Shiny Pachirisu 16:27, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Welcoming

I noticed what you did with your Welcome to that recent user, but truly this is how you're supposed to do it:

ALL you have to do is type

{{subst:welcome}}

and save the page~Pokemaniac102 01:04, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Just to put a bit more emphasis, you don't even need your signature, just what is above in that box~Pokemaniac102 01:15, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

NOOO!

Don't delete the DrugShipping page. I'm just trying to make this page better hopefully people will help me!! User:Rucario64

Thanks!! But I think someone else deleted it... crap!! So now what do I do?? User:Rucario64
Relax. Everything's been properly handled.
For the record, the shipping pages should be created in the Shipping namespace, and then the shipping redirect be created in the main namespace. If a shipping page gets created in the main namespace, the proper action is to first move the shipping page and then convert the redirect to a shipping redirect. --Shiningpikablu252 23:58, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
Thanks... so what did I do wrong? --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 00:04, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
You replaced the content of a shipping article created in the main namespace with the shipping redirect, then reposted the original content in the Shipping namespace. Doing such an action causes the history to not carry over, which is not the proper way to move an article.- unsigned comment from Shiningpikablu252 (talkcontribs)
...Are you talking to me, Shiningpikablu252, or Rucario64? Shiny Pachirisu 00:07, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
I see. I figured that, since there was only one edit in the history, it wouldn't matter... but I see now that I was wrong. Sorry. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 00:13, 17 July 2008 (UTC)


Hey thanks for your help!! But if you mind can I ask a favour from you? Can you help make my sig look nice?? Rucario64 00:44, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Userbox

Yea but a little--CoolPikachu! 21:21, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Link Templates

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

For a full crash course on link templates, look at the shortlinks. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 03:24, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
