+== Misspellings ==
+If a misspelling appears in the wanted pages, feel free to fix it on any pages that link to it, if any are left.  However, do NOT redirect the misspelling to the correct spelling.  Only common misspellings get redirects, of which the ones you made redirects for were not.  Making redirects of random misspellings is probably going to net you a Golden Slowpoke award...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:37, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
+:Ok, thanks for letting me know. Should I go back and undo those pages then?? -[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 17:33, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
+::That won't be necessary.  Misspellings in the current project are taken care of as soon as a sysop who runs through the wanted pages (usually myself) detects them, hence there was nothing linking to them at the time you created those redirects.  And those redirects have since been deleted.  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 18:14, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

+We don't... ''need'' to mention the whole meteorites thing. It's like Shaymin. We could mention the whole "boxing and freezing changes its formes too", but that's... mentioned.

+== Note to Self ==
+Talk to someone about the oddities of switching between anime and movie number. For example [[Shaymin_(movie_11)|Shaymin]] is at movie 11 instead of anime, whereas [[Arceus_(anime)|Arceus]] is at anime which should be correct. We need some consistency here folks. –[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 02:24, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
+:That's on purpose. There's only one Arceus in the anime (and only one Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, and Mewtwo) - so we write "anime". For the rest we specify the movie. --[[User:ElectAbuzzzz|'''<span style="color:#ED9121">electAbuzz</span>''']][[User talk:ElectAbuzzzz|'''<span style="color:#ED9121">z</span>''']][[Special:Contributions/ElectAbuzzzz|'''<span style="color:#ED9121">z</span>''']] 07:03, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
