Just so it'll be easier on you, there are a few link templates you can use instead of doing the standard <nowiki>[[Name of Article|Word you want to show]]</nowiki>.  For example, if you just want to write Ash, you can just use the template <nowiki>{{Ash}}</nowiki> instead of <nowiki>[[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] and you'll link to</nowiki> {{Ash}}.  For towns you can use <nowiki>{{to|name of town}}, so you can write {{to|Lilypad}} instead of [[Lilypad Town|Lilypad]]</nowiki> which will still link to {{to|Lilypad}}.  The same is true for cities, replacing "to" with "ci".  [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_link_templates The list of link templates] should help you out.  Also, when doing episode titles, they should be italicized with three apostrophes (<nowiki>'''</nowiki>) instead of quotation marks.  --[[User:Funktastic~!|<span style="color:#009900">'''It's'''</span> <span style="color:#CC66FF">'''Funktastic~!'''</span>]][[User talk:Funktastic~!|<sub><small><span style="color:#99CCFF">''話してください''</span></small></sub>]] 17:19, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

:Oh... Sorry, I'm new to this editing stuff. To be honest, I did refer to those templates before editing the article, but when I saw the list I went: ''-_- screw this, I'm doing the long way.'' Thanks for the advice though, I'll keep it in mind in future. [[User:YOLO2468|YOLO2468]] ([[User talk:YOLO2468|talk]]) 04:18, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

::No problem.  Figured I'd just try to be helpful.  You'll learn to get use to it.  Especially if you ever start writing longer articles.  --[[User:Funktastic~!|<span style="color:#009900">'''It's'''</span> <span style="color:#CC66FF">'''Funktastic~!'''</span>]][[User talk:Funktastic~!|<sub><small><span style="color:#99CCFF">''話してください''</span></small></sub>]] 04:31, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
