I had been planning to make an article concerning Bandai's D-Arts line of highly-articulated Pokémon collectibles, which would require the uploading of images. Will my account work on the Archives, or do I need to make a separate account? Also, as I am a stickler for image sourcing and licensing, what is the image policy regarding the upload of promotional images? Is there a sourcing template? If not, I intend to list the source of any image I upload in some fashion similar to what I am used to on Wookieepedia, and I would like to know if such sourcing is permissible. | I had been planning to make an article concerning Bandai's D-Arts line of highly-articulated Pokémon collectibles, which would require the uploading of images.

In regards to a product article, I had seen various examples, but they were short and vague, with only a few articles going into any sort of specific product detail. What I intend to cover in the article are details concerning product release and distribution, price range, and some details on the figures themselves, mainly the articulation. As I only own one of the figures, the primary example for most of those details will be the Mewtwo figure. Any details concerning the Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur figures will be gleaned from product descriptions on Amazon, and through my various sources. Is there a specific format for merchandise articles? SnorlaxMonster said that there was not, and most articles that I've seen follow only a basic format of short description, followed by a gallery. | In regards to a product article, I had seen various examples, but they were short and vague, with only a few articles going into any sort of specific product detail.

Good eye on catching these easily-overlooked characters. Which round do they appear in, though? I don't see such information, which I believe is crucial. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 11:13, 12 March 2017 (UTC) | Good eye on catching these easily-overlooked characters.

== Apology + request == | |||
First of all, I'd like to say that I'm sorry for the things I said about you... It wasn't very mature of me to make assumptions about your character based on things I'd seen others say about you. | |||
With that out of the way, I would like to discuss [[Weather trio]] and a possible move to "Super-ancient Pokemon", since you seem to be the most active Editorial Board member. We have been discussing whether to move the page, as "Super-ancient Pokemon" is an official term, rather than "Weather trio" which is a fan term. You made a page called "[[Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)]]", too, possibly indicating you support it as a term(?). What do you think? --[[User:Celadonkey|<span style="color:#287a43">Celad</span>]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|<span style="color:#e85545">onkey</span>]] 21:48, 23 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
== X and Y == | |||
I'd like to apologize for the "as of this chapter" thing I thought it was said there. However I don't understand why you got rid of the picture of X's party. Could you please explain why?--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 15:35, 25 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
:Also while I have your attention I have two more questions. In one of the scans I read it said Mega Manectric used Thunder Fang instead of Thunder. I was wondering which you thought it was. I'm also wondering if you can find the natures and genders for the remaining Pokemon belonging to X and Y as I can not find it anywhere.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 15:38, 25 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
:There is no official source for the remaining genders or natures. X's Pokemon were only given them once, in the magazine version of PAXY23. And the version where Elec used Thunder was in the magazine version, so it's entirely possible it was changed in the volume version. I don't have the volume to properly compare. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 15:52, 25 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
::Alright thanks. Now to prevent me from messing this up later what was wrong with the cover chapter I put up for PAXY38?--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 15:54, 25 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
:::It was clearly used from a scanlation. We do not oppose images from scanlations, but any translation that isn't official must have the text removed. If it can't be removed without ruining the image, it's better to not use it at all. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 15:58, 25 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
::::Okay sorry about it. Won't happen again.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 15:59, 25 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Snor == | |||
I don't quite understand why you removed Snor's trivia. Every other Pokemon makes mention to how they are owned in other media and it being tied for the highest level out of all 21 pokedex holders seems notable to me. Could you please explain why it should not be there?--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 19:12, 31 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
:I've noticed you have been pretty active today. If possible could you please get back to me on this? Thank you.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 21:42, 3 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
::You are on right now. Please stop ignoring your talk page.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 02:30, 5 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Editing Userpages w/o permission == | |||
As an admin you know better. That proposed Zeller page did not have any kind of permission template on it. Could you please undo your technical userspace violation/vandalism, or do I have to go higher up?--[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 03:07, 5 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
:First of all, that rule doesn't apply to admins. Second, even if it didn't, me reverting the edit would bring back the now red links to the images I deleted, and that makes absolutely no sense. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 03:43, 5 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Moves == | |||
How come you got rid of moves for manga Pokemon like Flare Blitz or Calm Mind? [[User:Reinhartmax|Reinhartmax]] ([[User talk:Reinhartmax|talk]]) 16:05, 5 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
:Because if you cannot actually see the move being used, it shouldn't be noted. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 16:09, 5 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
::Shouldn't it then be noted that they have the move, but it wasn't used on panel. [[User:Reinhartmax|Reinhartmax]] ([[User talk:Reinhartmax|talk]]) 16:16, 5 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Megaree == | |||
As of the most recent chapter Meganium was shown to be female so why did you change it? The manga has retconed things before, like levels and natures so it should reflect the most current information.--[[User:Pikablu|Pikablu]] ([[User talk:Pikablu|talk]]) 15:01, 26 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
:Because that's not true in the slightest. I'm assuming you read the scanlated version, which states that Megaree is female. However, that is a mistake; the Japanese version still lists him as male. Next time, try reading from an official source, which is far less likely to make mistakes like this. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 00:08, 27 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Hareta's Luxray == | |||
Is the page [[User:Rahl/Hareta's Luxray]] ready to be mainspaced?--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 16:12, 8 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Sorry, my bad == | |||
[https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMcFatmV_HbIi-I7UZNNwRFGd7XvV1YOb0rjEznZ2DYSlxAbYqPoz3NifhmnrNPzw/photo/AF1QipNl2kufX6tWUOMcHAK8OY0j9ZGlG_gnzFv9WSiG?key=TlJWckRLSFFxVWZaRUZtZVlyWHc3a19icU04MVBB This] is the scanlation I used to change Thunder to Thunder Fang. Sorry, I should've realized that the existing info was based on the original Japanese version and not another scanlation. You'll have to excuse me. I've been having a flu lately and not gotten enough sleep because of it, so my brain has been a bit fuzzy these last couple of days. I know it's not an excuse, but I still hope you'll understand. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 16:13, 8 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
:No problem. I'm fully aware of that scanlation, hence why I was wary of whether or not it was completely correct. Either way, I checked with the person who scanlated it, and it was in fact a mistake. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 16:44, 8 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
== flamethrower == | |||
hey i don't know if you checked but Smeargle did use Flamethrower. Why are so mad that I'm adding it?--[[User:Davikon|Davikon]] ([[User talk:Davikon|talk]]) 18:40, 8 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
:I clearly explained on your talk page as to why what you were doing is wrong. Please read it. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 18:48, 8 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
::Umm no you didn't. All you said was second warning and you're tired of the page being fixed. That doesn't tell me why you think it didn't use flamethrower, becuase you can see that it did in one of the chapters.--[[User:Davikon|Davikon]] ([[User talk:Davikon|talk]]) 19:30, 8 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
:::"Please be sure that when editing articles related to certain Pokemon manga you do not add a move unless it is explicitly called out by someone. Moves are rarely consistent between uses in Pokespe and it is much preferred that we do not assume, even if the move seems obvious." There it is, Ataro's warning verbatim that still applies for the first and second time. Read it please.--[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 19:58, 8 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
== En Z-Move == | |||
Should something like "En has performed an unknown Z-Move" or "En has performed an unknown Fire type Z-Move" be added to En's section of Sun's page?--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 12:43, 25 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
==Volume 53== | |||
Now that Japan's release date has been confirmed I am sure a more stable English release date should be announced. Because I bought the volume on Amazon, they will send me an e-mail when the information is confirmed. Anyway have a nice day. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 23:56, 26 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
==Bruxish== | |||
Did Bruxish use Screech in today's episode? It looked like it when Ash and the gang covered their ears from it. [[User:Seabiscuit2020|Seabiscuit2020]] ([[User talk:Seabiscuit2020|talk]]) 17:37, 22 January 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Bulba Handbook == | |||
Do you know where Bulba Handbook gets their information? I know for sure that not all of it's from Bulbapedia, because some stuff on Bulba Handbook isn't on Bulbapedia. If you don't know, who should I ask? [[User:Sumwun|sumwun]] ([[User talk:Sumwun|talk]]) 14:56, 24 June 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Raising a concern with the Editorial Board == | |||
Hello there. I'm concerned about the behavior of the user {{u|Marshtompert}}, who's been exhibiting some disruptive behaviors that closely resemble those of {{u|Spyspotter}}, who has a long record of sockpuppeting to attempt to sidestep their permaban. | |||
I raised these concerns in some detail on [[User talk:Kogoro#Marshtompert|Kogoro's talk page]] two weeks ago, but Kogoro does not seem to be coming back online anytime soon. (In addition to the concerns I raised at that time, in the meantime, Marshtompert has [[Talk:Scholastic|further targeted at least one page]] that has been [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Scholastic&action=history almost entirely dormant since Spyspotter last edited it]. They've also [[User talk:Marshtompert#Blocked, once more|refused to explain their actions]] after being confronted by Force Fire.) | |||
Since you appear to be the most active Editorial Board member lately, I hoped you might see this and be able to do whatever it is the EB does to detect whether a user is a sockpuppet or not. Thanks for hearing me out, and I await your response. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 19:05, 26 July 2017 (UTC) | |||
