Thank you, and have a good time editing here! |
Hey there!
Thanks for your contributions to the List of Japanese Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions and Miscellaneous Promotional cards (TCG)/2015-2018. I noticed that you're making a number of similar small edits to individual sections. Have you considered editing the whole page at once instead? It helps keep the page history in check and allows other people down the road to have an easier time when checking out how that page changed over time. I hope you understand! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! MaverickNate 05:55, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry, no problem Finger (talk) 06:04, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
- It wouldn't let me, as the page is missing Main Expansions in the menu Finger (talk) 06:40, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
- Are you editing via desktop or mobile? On desktop there is an "edit this page" button at the top of the page near history, discussion, etc. Mobile is similar, where you click the pencil at the top of the page instead of the pencil for each individual section.

TAG TEAM
Hey there! TAG TEAM is officially stylized in all caps, similar to Pokémon LEGEND, V-UNION, BREAK, and so on. All instances of TAG TEAM should be left in all caps to follow official styling. I hope you understand. MaverickNate 09:53, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
- After checking a lot of instances, it was clear that the majority was written in lower case, the only page that was written in upper case is the article TAG TEAM (TCG), so for consistency, plus without lower case the links to the mechandise pages will not work. I hope you understand. Finger (talk) 19:55, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
- It looks like Bulbapedia was inconsistent with its wording with this term for the merchandise. When this kind of thing happens, it's good to check against official sources. It looks like "Tag Team Powers Collection" should have been changed to "TAG TEAM Powers Collection" on the merchandise page instead.
- In order to make the links to the merch page work, all that needed to happen was changing the section header on the merch page to match the wording from the links. MaverickNate 12:32, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, I will try to remember this for the future. Finger (talk) 01:16, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
Iono, DTE, Magma Basin
For now, I changed those three pages back to what they said before. For a decade+, Bulbapedia has followed that standard wording, so almost every card page is standardized to that wording. I think you've identified a confusing problem with that standard wording though: the intro says first released as part of the Brilliant Stars expansion and the release information says first released as part of the Star Birth expansion. You're completely right that this needs to change, but given it's a problem on thousands of pages, it needs a plan of attack that's more than just change one page here and there, or else it will be impossible to track what is done and what isn't.
