== My History on Bulbapedia ==
I had a bad start to Bulbapedia. I would always be talking on the Userspace and it became accesive. Eventually I learned that most of your edits should be on the mainspace. It was really hard to get used to Bulbapedia. I had no idea how different it was from Wikipedia. I made a zillion edits just to get my signature changed.
 
Eventually, I got better and even created [[Ranger Base|my first mainspace page]]. I had a few slip-ups but eventually got used to Bulbapedia. I made many productive edits. I was suprised at how many edits I made that no one got angry at or found unproductive.
 
The only really bad thing I have ever done was make a sock-puppet just to prove something. Which I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw the front page at the time. After a small time away from Bulbapedia I came back and started fresh. I started making tons of useful edits (and a few mistakes in my knowledge of Pokemon of course). Some of my edits and suggestions were even approved by a few admins.
 
I, eventually, found a main focus to my edits. (look at the "notes" above)
 
Later, I had started working with some of the Bulbapedia projects. Even though the Pokémon articles were blocked that didn't stop me from using the talk page. Even though they are blocked to regular users, the Admins, could still edit it. So my way of making edits to the pages was by requesting them to Admins on the respective talk pages. I also have started a little project on Project MoveDex that has to deal with moves in the manga. For more info on that click this →[[Bulbapedia talk:Project MoveDex|♫]]
 
A while had passed, and I had became better at making contributions involving "BulbaCode" and making good contributions in general.
 
Later, things began to get off track with too many Trivia items and not enough productive edits. So, I had turned things around and took a [[User:Midnight Blue|certain user's advise]] and started making several productive edits. I had even began to make bigger edits like moving pages, and [[Jenny (movie)|making pages]].
 
Recently, I started using Firefox instead of Internet Explorer to contribute to Bulbapedia. I have learned the big differences and what Bulbapedia is ''supposed'' to look like. Anyway, I'll still use Internet Explorer if I want to do something real quick.
 
I hope to be a greater contributor as I move on in Bulbapedia♪ without many more mistakes. I'll do anything for Bulbapedia to help make it the greatest Pokémon Encyclopedia ever♫.
 
== Fishy Advice ==
*If you can't find anything you can do click the "Recent changes" option on the left side of the screen to find something that you find should be changed.
**Also click "Random page" and look through that page for something you feel is missing or needs to be changed.
*Find something that you are good at doing and make that your main way of editing. Some people help Bulbapedia projects that specialize only on certain types of article's.
*Use the "show preview" button to revise your edit.
*Join a project. If you have one thing that you are focusing on than you are sure to find yourself making tons of useful edits that people will be proud of.
*At the top of the screen there is an option called "contributions". This is to check what kind of edits you have made recently. I highly suggest using that to see if you are making too many edits to the userspace. If a majority of your edits has "user" at the beginning, I suggest taking a break from editing the userspace and save it for the next day or save it for when you have made many productive edits to the mainspace.
*Use your userspace to try codes out. If you want to make something fancy '''for the mainspace''', first try messing with the coding on your userspace. To make a page within your userspace name it like so:
 
<nowiki>User:Example/YourPageNameHere</nowiki>
 
:I suggest on the "YourPageNameHere" part put Sandbox since this is what most people use to experiment with codes.
::If you are making a fun page on your userspace (let's say a page on possible future evolutions of pokémon), then it would be ok to give it your own name.
:::However, to my knowledge, regular users can't have an abundance of "Fun Pages". I have a few pages but they are for my userpage and organization of info I might need later
*When in doubt . . . ask an Admin.
**This is always one of the best things you can do when in a pickle. Look for an admin and get help! They will always be open to help you. Just be sure the admin isn't busy.
*Please try to focus your edits on the facts and not stuff like Trivia.
**If you can't think of something new and useful, try looking at the errors in the article and fix those.
***This could include spelling or grammatical errors.
***This could include factual errors.
*'''Try to view Bulbapedia on ''Firefox''. Bulbapedia is meant to be viewed by this and it is much better. Honestly, once you've seen the true Bulbapedia, Internet Explorer makes it look awful'''
 
''I will add more to this list if I find some more thing's that are useful.''
 
== My History with Pokémon ==
I've been a [[Pokémon Trainer]] since the start . . . and due to this, the story is pretty lengthy. So I saved this userpage
some space and stuffed it inside this small heart→ [[User:Landfish7/PokéHistory|♥]] :3
