Hey, Magnedeth. I was wondering if you could [[User:Super goku/Sandbox/Bulbapedia Webmasters|look over this page]] and see if everything looks correct. I wanted to add it to the Bulbapedia mainspace, but I would like to make sure that what is on there is true before adding it as an actual article. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 02:07, 26 July 2013 (UTC) | Hey, Magnedeth.

:Thanks for doing that. I made a few tweaks, and effectively merged it with the Executive Policymakers page, which, as you can see, it has replaced. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 03:01, 27 July 2013 (UTC) | |||
::Eh, no problem. I thought I would make the page, but I didn't feel right with just putting it into the Mainspace without talking to anyone about it.

The user is more likely to be a spambot since the account called NicoleJewett (which is a spambot) was created by him/her. [[User:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Patty</span>]][[User talk:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Man</span>]] 03:58, 12 August 2013 (UTC) | |||

Im just getting around to doing this but, '''WHY did you block me INDEFINITELY''' over there? You stated that I had "No intention to create articles", Which is wrong. I simply made the page first and was going to create a page at some point. At the very least you could of warned me or deleted the page. Its just not right.

== Question about the inner machinations of the welcome template == | |||
Gonna ask you this since I don't think TTE is gonna respond any time soon....... | |||
As a committee member from the Bleach Wiki, I have come to ask you a mediawiki-based question about the welcome template here. I noticed that in the template, the signature is automatically placed through use of "<nowiki>~~<noinclude></noinclude>~~</nowiki>". Well, I tried to get this to work on some templates over there, but when used, the expected result did not appear, and instead just resulted in 4 ~'s showing up but not replaced by a signature. While typing this message, however, a thought occurred to me (that happens too damn much) that the reason might be because you guys use "subst:" and we don't. Whether or not this ''is'' the reason, I'm just looking for a response, because I do somewhat want to make this work over there. Thanks for your time. [[User:Schiffy|<font color="000999">Schiffy</font>]] ([[User_talk:Schiffy|<font color="FF6600">Speak to me</font>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Schiffy|<font color="FF0000">What I've done</font>]]) 21:28, 20 September 2013 (UTC) | |||
:You do need to substitute the template for that to work. The way it works is that on the template page, the noinclude tags prevent it being parsed as a signature. When it is substituted, it gets inserted without the tags, making four tildes in a row, so it gets parsed as a signature. When the template is called but not substituted, it effectively executes it from the template page without actually transferring it, so while it ignores the noinclude tags, they still exist and break up the sequence of tildes. As a result, without the substitution, it behaves just like on the template page - as two separate pairs of tildes. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 05:04, 21 September 2013 (UTC) | |||
== Watchlist stuff == | |||
Whenever I try to click on the watch tab on a page, a pop-up message says that an error occurred while changing my watchlist settings for said page I'm on. Might be a glitch in the system but still needs to be looked in to.

== Wondering about... == | |||
Hey, I'm fairly new here, and was wondering who to ask regarding this. I happen to own a 1998 KFC Pikachu nightlight that has a microphone. When you clap or hum near it, it lights up. I've been scouring the Internet for information regarding this item, but I can't find mention of it anywhere. Since I have ''just'' gained page-creating permissions, and don't know if this is a meaningful subject for a page, I came here for help. Should I have posed this question to the leader of Project Merchandise? [[User:YveltalGriffin|YveltalGriffin]] ([[User talk:YveltalGriffin|talk]]) 05:44, 21 February 2014 (UTC) | |||
:That would go on {{redlink|1998 KFC promotional Pokémon toys (Kids' Meal)|this page}}. Not particularly sure where on the page, but we try and group fast food toys together. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 06:08, 21 February 2014 (UTC) | |||
== [[Blaziken Mask]] / [[Meyer]] == | |||
There seems to be extremely little on-wiki discussion regarding merging two articles that very clearly are the same person. I mean, if all of the supporting facts don't confirm it (too numerous to list), then the very sight of Meyer's face under the mask at the end of [[XY010|''Mega-Mega Meowth Madness!'']] should be the dart in the proverbial bulls-eye. I've made multiple attempts (see at Blaziken Mask, [[Talk:Meyer|at Meyer]], and even at [[Bulbapedia_talk:Editor's_Hub#Blaziken_Mask.2FMeyer|the Editor's Hub]] with absolutely no response in places (except for one person at each of the first two), and a talk page message to [[User_talk:Force_Fire#Blaziken_Mask_.2F_Meyer|Force Fire]] also went unanswered. | |||
Should I go ahead and ''be bold'' as is the Wiki trademark? The problem is that I don't have the user permission to physically merge pages; I could copy stuff over but edit history would be lost. Both pages ought to now be merged at [[Meyer]] and a single history created; I can also add the image at the end of the episode showing his face under the mask.

== Hoopa page == | |||
Hi MAGNEDETH! Hoopa is recently revealed and somewhat you said that my [[User:Phiraptor28/Hoopa_(Pokémon)|Hoopa page]] is going tobe put into use. Will it be? Thanks for reading, I hope you reply! [[User:Phiraptor28|Phiraptor28]] ([[User talk:Phiraptor28|talk]]) 13:39, 10 January 2015 (UTC) | |||
== Base total stat 325 == | |||
Your page [[User:MAGNEDETH/Pokedex]] adds a category to Pokémon with a base stat total of 325. I am pretty sure it should not be there and for the life of me I can not figure out how to get rid of it.[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] 04:38, 17 April 2015 (UTC) | |||

== {{p|Hoopa}} == | |||
Coming to you as the protecting admin. | |||
A concern has been raised by an editor about the Hoopa page being protected to established users only. Can you perhaps [[Talk:Hoopa (Pokémon)#Hoopa page|answer the user's concern]] and explain whether the page will be permitted for all users in the future? | |||
Also, of interest to me, {{p|Diancie}} '''is not''' protected, and {{p|Zygarde}} '''is''' protected (since 2013, protected from page creation to prevent speculation; that's long past now), while {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}} are unprotected; there is inconsistency here. Since Hoopa is released now in Japan, I think we can allow edits as people in North America can trade for Hoopa now and see what it does. {{p|Volcanion}} in my mind is the only one to now restrict (and it is, you did that one as well). Neither Volcanion or Hoopa are too high-traffic, either; Hoopa came out this month, and it still has only slightly more activity than either May or June, with maybe a few edits at a time at any time regardless of when it is and no edit warring that I have noticed.

==Apology== | |||
You probably don't remember this, but I had a bit of a negative attitude you and the wiki's way of doing things back in 2010. I had the displeasure of looking at my Talk page the other day and I don't think I've ever cringed so hard. I apologise for my past behaviour.

I don't know if you're the right person to ask this, but what does this mean? Did I do something wrong? (I have screenshots if you want, but I don't know how to upload it to Bulbapedia.) | |||

== Re: PoGO Information == | |||
Thanks for deleting those drafts. Most of the "good information" there was already either mainspaced or too outdated. But for expanding on PoGO, one thing I've been trying to get pushed is a much needed updated to [[Template:Spindata/GO]], which lacks a lot of readily-available information that other Pokemon GO sites have, e.g. | |||
* Maximum CP (including Best Buddy boost) | |||
* Base Catch/Flee rate | |||
* New Attack Cost (introduced long after template was created) | |||
* Utilization of all sprites (gender-differences, Shiny, and costumes) | |||
Anyways, I've been toying with various drafts for a while, and decided on this one - [[User:TehPerson/Spindata/GO]] - such that it won't interfere with whatever information is already on the mainspace. And I can just help out manually fill out the new "??" fields (the old base stats for Gen I-III need to be mass-updated anyways). Thanks!

== An apology and a question == | |||
First, I just wanted to apologize about my past actions when I was 13 and 14 years old back in 2009 and 2010. I was young and dumb and made some pointless hasty decisions and was a pain in the neck, and caused you in particular some headache. As that was half a lifetime ago, at least for me, I'd like to think I've grown a bit as a person and as an editor, but I still regret my past mistakes and ignorance and I do apologize for that. | |||
If it's no trouble, I also wanted to ask you a question. I noticed you are missing from the [[BP:Webmasters|Executive Staff page]]. Is there a reason for this, and is anyone else missing? I've noticed you are listed as a former Editor-in-Chief on the Editorial Board page under "Other Executive Staff" but, as far as I can tell, you're the only one missing from the actual Executive Staff page itself, so I thought I'd ask. | |||
And again, thanks for all you do here and thanks for your patience with me over the years. I look forward to continue working with you and the rest of staff and the Bulbapedia community to make this wiki as good as it can be. Sincerely, [[User:Landfish7|<span style="font-family:Tahoma"><font color="F34134">'''Land'''</font>]][[User talk:Landfish7|<span style="font-family:Tahoma"><small><font color="8334B7">'''fish7'''</font></small></span></span>]] 21:17, 19 September 2022 (UTC) | |||
