Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Shiay!

The Manual of Style, or MoS, outlines the format of all pages on Bulbapedia.

All of our administrators are here to help! Talk to them if you have any questions or problems with Bulbapedia.

On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~), or by using the "Your signature with a timestamp" (button_sig.png) button at the top of the edit window.

The Userspace Policy says that you should keep userspace edits (edits to User:Shiay) to a minimum, and outlines a few other guidelines for your userspace.

 Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

Personal images

It's come to my attention that you have a grand total of 3 personal images on the Archives. Of course, we allow only two. Please reply to this before ----- (excess images removed). Please keep in mind that there are alternate image hosting sites where you can upload as many personal images as you want, and keep them for as long as you like. If possible, please use those instead of the Archives for your personal image needs. Have a nice day! --MaverickNate 03:34, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

You do not have any rights to upload more images when you are told to lessen them. I'm going to delete the images you uploaded a moment ago (the above notice still applies, though). UltimateSephiroth (about me · chat · edits) 10:54, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

Oh... okay... I'm sorry. I didn't know. Thank you for that. I guess I'll just keep 200px and a:File:DixiesCharizard.png then. Again, I'm very sorry for this, and I won't do it again ^^;

No problem, now you're within the permitted amount :p As the notice above states, you can upload those images to any other image hosting site that allows hotlinking, such as ImageShack, and then use them here (linking to external images can be done by just copying the image URL to the page).

Hi

I noticed you have been editing the User: namespace a lot recently. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a Userspace policy that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Heavy editing of these personal pages can put undue stress on the server, so please leave your page alone for now and go help out in the mainspace. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so please help us to complete it! If you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit your userpage more often too. Thanks! --—darklordtrom 11:50, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

Stop.

Do not edit the User: namespace any more. In the past, we were not allowed to edit our pages at all because of users over-editing their pages. If you edit your page any more without making some edits to the mainspace, then the privilege for you to edit the userspace will be removed. This has been your final warning. ---- MAGNEDETH 19:26, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
