==Hi==
I noticed you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot today. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a {{Bulbapedia|Userspace policy}} that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Instead of making multiple edits, why not use the Preview button (Alt + Shift + P) located right next to the edit button to look at your page and see how it is coming? That way, your page can look great while staying within the required amount of edits. Instead of editing the userspace, as a wiki, we encourage users to edit the mainspace. So, if you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit the userspace more. Thanks! --[[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|You enter a poorly lit room...]] 12:21, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

:I think you'll find that I'm using a template, and I'm trying to view it. It is impossible to view how it turns out without saving it, because the transclusion isn't updated until I've saved it. But no, I wasn't aware of it, and it looks to me more like a hindrance policy, because I am not leaving something unfinished, even if I have to go over some sort of limit in order to finish it.--[[User:Tmwps|Thomas Michael Wiliam Patrick Sales]] 12:42, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

::It's more to keep the pedia from crashing due to a flood of edits to the UserSpace. And, if you read the UserSpace policy, conveniently linked in the welcome message, then you should have known about it.
