Hi. Would you happen to know why categories no longer show the new pages added to them, such as [[Kiawe's Marowak]] not being shown in Category:Kiawe's Pokémon or Category:Pokémon Adventures characters (Pokémon) or why the category Category:Kiawe's Pokémon is not being shown in Category:Trial Captains' Pokémon. Also do you know why pictures no longer list new pages they are put onto, such as File:Lycanroc anime.png not being shown on {{p|Lycanroc}} or File:Ash Rockruff.png still being listed on [[Ash Ketchum]]'s page despite no longer being there. Lastly, why do searches no longer show new pages, such as not showing [[Ash's Lycanroc]] or [[PokéSPedia]]. Thanks.

== Staff power abuse, gross offenses, general paranoia and accountability(And a "Turkey Shoot" that ties it all together) == | |||
Many staff(Force Fire and Ataro are glaring examples across multiple sites they are mods/admins on) make people nervous, flustered, fearful and/or uncomfortable(myself included) by assuming they are always right, that everybody who's not staff are wrong or misguided, and that they are always acting true to Bulbapedia's goodwill, never allowing themselves to lose an argument or a discussion(to my knowledge), have to have the final word on everything, near-automatically dismiss and discount views and evidence that differ from their own, and attacking/chasing off inexperienced/unskilled users under the guise of modding them rather than teaching them(which is counterproductive and doesn't help them get accustomed to Bulbapedia), assume constant bad faith from those users who do not automatically know how to use the site, think everyone is a troll/vandal/spammer due to some kind of "Turkey Shoot" in the past inducing paranoia leading to authoritarian power abuses in the name of protecting the site, abuse mod privilege to settle near-every discussion, and generally come off as bad apples. I feel that this site is becoming a clique of mods, pseudomods, sycophants and general users due to this, and I request an inquiry into ForceFire, Ataro, and all other staff left over from or whom were non-staff around that period and recruited after, the "Turkey Shoot" that traumatized staff into such practices. I do hope this can be settled quickly. --[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 04:07, 19 May 2018 (UTC) | |||
