Character sections

Please try to refrain from putting in too much fluff in these sections, especially regarding the relationships between characters. In particular, try to avoid the term "best friends", since this can oftentimes be subjective (outside of instances where the characters themselves state it).

Also, statements like "This main character cares for their friends" should also be avoided, since this applies to every main character in the anime and isn't a unique aspect of their respective characters. Similar edits to all of these have been removed in the past on various pages. PokemonMasterJamal3 (talk) 21:20, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

Again, statements like "This main character cares for/is loyal towards their friends" applies to many important characters. This is not a unique attribute. Additionally, several of your edits contain grammatical errors (such as saying "touch by her kindness" rather than "touched by her kindness), so please make sure to review your edits with "Show preview" before submitting them!

I want to stress this again: Most Pokémon are close to their Trainers. It's a bit redundant to say that every Pokémon belonging to a Trainer is loyal to them, as it's not a particularly unique characteristic by that point. PokemonMasterJamal3 (talk) 19:52, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Tense

When adding new text to a section, please make sure the text's tense is consistent with the rest of the text in the same paragraph. I.e., past tense with past tense text, present tense with present tense text, and so forth. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 21:25, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Trivia

I've noticed in some of your edits you done things like main male/female character, writing it as male/female main character makes sense written like that.--BigDocFan, Junior Admin Bulbapedia (talk) 12:37, 20 August 2023 (UTC)

I notice you've edited someone pages over ten times in the span of a few days. Please add all the info you want to add to the page you want to edit with as little edits as possible to avoid clogging up the edit history of that page. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 18:26, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

The Preview Button

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 17:31, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

Thanks

Just wanted to say thanks for adding more information to my page for Murdock's Alcremie, I appreciate it.--BigDocFan, Junior Admin Bulbapedia (talk) 15:01, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
