User talk:Black Eagle

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Black Eagle!

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules:

Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct.
Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around.
Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page.
Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style.
You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy.
Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite.
Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
For more handy links, see the welcome portal.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

User Page

You can't edit your userpage until you have made a number of mainspace edits, the exact number needed is top secert. Also using your talk page as a user page is prohited by the talk page policy. Have a nice day. Truth seeker 4449 17:02, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Ermm, how am I then supposed to bring out important information of my knowledge and skills? --Black Eagle 17:28, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

How about you show it by expanding some stubs. If you turn out to be a good editor then you will find that you will gain userspace rights pretty quickly. Truth seeker 4449 17:35, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Now, I'm being a bit provocative here, but how does me saying "I have experience from Gen II worth 1000h game-hours" stresses the server more than you removing one single word ('you'), which btw did not make your message any more comprehensible? I read the policy now and I understand it was established because some users started using their user pages as social forums. This increases the server load. And now, in this conversation I mentioned naturally the same thing I originally edited to the beginning of this page - so where's the difference? In fact, I think we've just created some 3-6 more or less useless edits here. Or will you start censoring me by removing what I just said? I bet that is also against the rules... --Black Eagle 17:48, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

I didn't remove anything other than the personal content you put on this page when you made it. Since then I have only added content. Oh and btw, I have more than 1,500 hours on pearl alone, about 3,000 hours worth of game time total. Truth seeker 4449 19:37, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Okay, either you are a bad troll or you did not get my point. Well, at least I have now said whatever I wanted to say in the first place. I don't see how saying it in a conversation is different from stating it otherwise, but I don't honestly care. Good that you have lots of game hours, they are needed! Now, I'm not commenting on this from now on. If you have still something to say, I suggest you send me mail or something. --Black Eagle 19:43, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Talk page comments

Please do not respond to talk page comments that are over 6 months old. If they are that old, they are either resolved or long forgotten about. If you have something new to add, start a new section at the bottom of the talk page to keep items in chronological order. Thanks. ChE clarinetist (talk) 17:21, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Hello! The revert on Johto Route 45 was against policy. Please re-revert. Justification (bolded sections):

1) "Please check the dates of a discussion before you reply to it. Unless an old conversation is still relevant and there is a good reason to revitalize discussion, comments on sections older than six months old should not be made. If the problems cited in the previous comments have already been cleared up, any new comments may be removed."

The same kind of edit was reverted for the second time - i.e. a recurring incident, which makes it still relevant. The comment was added to provide further evidence and instructions to not revert it.

2) "Keep the conversation in one place. It's difficult to read a conversation when every other comment is on a different page and it means the page history can be used to check the history of the discussion. This also allows third (or fourth) parties to join in if relevant."

I would not know why anyone wants to read a talk page with multiples of the same title. That's not keeping the conversation in the same place. --Black Eagle (talk) 17:34, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

The talk page comment is already resolved, evident in the main Johto Route 45 page where there is the hidden comment about the pond being unique. The discussion of that point has been resolved, and new replies are not needed for it. Just reverting any incorrect edits to the levels/trivia itself is all that is needed.

Except for the video that was linked along my comment. Should that be included in the main article? Embedded or a link? --Black Eagle (talk) 17:44, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

I personally don't see the need of the video, however it would be best to ask a Bulbapedia staff member about if it could be used as they would have a better idea. ChE clarinetist (talk) 17:58, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Sure, except proof was requested on the talk page and it seems that such proof is necessary since information on the article has been changed to incorrect multiple times. --Black Eagle (talk) 18:06, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
