:::::::How can I watchlist a user rather than a page?--[[User:Tmwps|Thomas Michael William Patrick Sales]] 11:08, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
::::::::[[Special:Contributions]]. But really, you need to spend more time focusing on developing the encyclopedia, rather than pointing out that some of our users can't spell. A lot of our users are {{tt|children|duh, Pokémon Wiki!}} who don't know better yet, so don't patronise them about their shoddy typing. &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 11:25, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::I can't watch a page in the [[Special:]] namespace. Also, you may want to note the edit I made to the top of the page.--[[User:Tmwps|Thomas Michael William Patrick Sales]] 11:28, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
:You seriously don't understand how this works, do you? Firstly, you don't watch that page. You put people's usernames in the box and you see when/where/what/why they edit. Secondly, it is a binding policy on Bulbapedia that you stuff off of other people's pages. If you didn't read the link I put a few lines up, then allow me to repeat that unless someone's page is breaking the Bulbapedia, NO ONE TOUCHES IT. That means you. That means me. That means {{u|Archaic|the owner of the server we run on}}. Got it? &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 11:33, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
::What box?--[[User:Tmwps|Thomas Michael William Patrick Sales]] 11:34, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
:::Did you follow that link either? Go to the your contributions page (I assume you know where that is) and change your name to someone else's. Recent edits means active. Ancient edits means don't hold your breath waiting for a reply. &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 11:37, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
::::So the contribs page is [[Special:Contributions/Tmwps]], so if I try, for example, [[Special:Contributions/Kevzo8]], that should work a treat.--[[User:Tmwps|Thomas Michael William Patrick Sales]] 11:40, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
:::::Yes. But seriously: if all you do here is bitch about people's spelling on their personal pages, I will not hesitate to give you a temporary block. {{bp|userspace policy|Policy}} is {{bp|blocking policy|policy}} after all. &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 11:42, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
::::::First, you're the one who [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Bulbapedia%3AUserspace_policy&diff=761816&oldid=742023 edited the userspace policy] so that I can't remove the typos. Secondly, "bitching" about other peoples spelling won't be all I'll be doing; even as this conversation was going on I [[Special:Contributions/Tmwps|was making edits to the mainspace]], albeit not very many.--[[User:Tmwps|Thomas Michael William Patrick Sales]] 11:51, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Yep, I did. But hey, you know what? I'd already told you hands off - and so did the Dark Fiddler. Please, stop making such a huge deal out of this. Nothing bad will happen if people's userpages look like crap. &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 12:01, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

You might want to read {{bp|Messages from the Editor#December 11|this little message}} before offering to do edits on behalf of someone.

== For a person that hates misspellings... ==
Gee, for being yelled at so many times for correcting spelling errors on other people's pages, you have an error on your own site. You misspelled patroni<strong>z</strong>e as patroni<strong>s</strong>e. Even the best make mistakes. By the way, feel free to pore over [[User:PhoenixGraphix|my Userpage]] as much as you please, you won't find a single spelling error.  Have fun. <strong>[[User:PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #FFD700;">Phoenix</span>]][[User_Talk:PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #AAAAAA;">Graphix</span>]][[Special:Contributions/PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #B0E0E6">&trade;</span>]]</strong> 06:33, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
:Patroni<strong>s</strong>e is the English spelling, whilst patroni<strong>z</strong>e is the American way. Sorry if I got this wrong, but lemme get this straight - you are ''inviting'' me to pore over your userpage? Okay...--[[User:Tmwps|Thomas Michael William Patrick Sales]] 09:37, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
::It would be proper etiquette to use patroni<strong>z</strong>e rather than patroni<strong>s</strong>e, as the United States makes up more than four times as much of the English Speaking population as the United Kingdom. Therefore, four times more American-dialect speakers will visit your page than those of the United Kingdom dialect. Oh, and by the way, English and American should be capitalized in your above post. <strong>[[User:PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #FFD700;">Phoenix</span>]][[User_Talk:PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #AAAAAA;">Graphix</span>]][[Special:Contributions/PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #B0E0E6">&trade;</span>]]</strong> 13:46, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
:::That would be a grammatical error rather than a spelling mistake. Btw, Tmwps, do you liek Mudkipz?--[[User:Clarky13|<span style="color:#0000FF;">'''Clarky'''</span>]][[User talk:Clarky13|<span style="color:#000000;">'''13'''</span>]] 13:51, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

I liek Mudkipz. <strong>[[User:PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #FFD700;">Phoenix</span>]][[User_Talk:PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #AAAAAA;">Graphix</span>]][[Special:Contributions/PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #B0E0E6">&trade;</span>]]</strong> 15:14, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
:::::I corrected the grammatical crap. Oh, and Clarky, I do '''not''' liek Mudkipz; I prefer Swampert. Where the hell did that erect from? Also, seeing as you invited me to, I '''did''' find three errors on your user page, which I corrected for you (its spelt var'''ia'''nts not var'''ai'''nts).--[[User:Tmwps|Thomas Michael William Patrick Sales]] 16:06, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
::::::Oh, I apologize for misspelling three words in my entire Userpage. I doubt that you have a twentieth of the amount of text I have on my Userpage on yours. Plus I type really fast, and I know how to spell thank you. And patronize is still spelled with a "z". <strong>[[User:PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #FFD700;">Phoenix</span>]][[User_Talk:PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #AAAAAA;">Graphix</span>]][[Special:Contributions/PhoenixGraphix|<span style="color: #B0E0E6">&trade;</span>]]</strong> 19:56, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
