BulbaBot.png This is the talk page of a bot.

While MediaWiki bots will have an associated username, and thus, like normal users, a user page and talk page, they are not living beings, and as such, will not respond when and if they are left a talk page message.

Requests for this bot's activity may be made here, though it is not guaranteed that the user with access to the bot's programming will see the message for some time.

The user who created this bot is Shiningpikablu252. A message left on his talk page will alert him to act more quickly than one left here.


Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, Redirect fixer!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:

  • For a basic overview of wiki code, see this page.
  • Read over the style primer before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the manual of style.
  • Keep an eye on the Messages from the Editor on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
  • The word Pokémon is spelled with a capital P and an accented é. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either 130 or 0233 on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
  • The word Poké Ball is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital B. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
  • The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
  • On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
  • The use of link templates is official policy.
  • If you happen to spot a vandal in the recent changes that has not been dealt with, please see this page for how to deal with it.
  • A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at this page. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found here, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found here.
  • For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the anime, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as Brock's Happiny being held in his arms).
  • Image uploading is done on Bulbagarden Archives, a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and Bulbanews have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.
  • If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Redirect fixer/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
  • Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
  • A list of the admins that you can contact in case of a problem can be found here.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here! --Shiningpikablu252 15:53, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey

I just read your user page, and I gotta ask, how the hell do you make edits that don't show up on the recent changes? Plus, I gotta admire you, you're so dedicated to fixing redirects that you'll edit nothing else? Man! I'm Missingno. Master. See my new and improved user page, and comment on it! 22:49, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

I think it's a bot. Like bulbabot. The Dark Fiddler - You enter a poorly lit room... 22:56, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
It is a bot. When bots edit you can not see it on the RC unless you put that you do wanna see a bot's edits.--☆Coolピカチュウ! 23:14, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
Oh. Boy, do I feel stupid. I'm Missingno. Master. See my new and improved user page, and comment on it! 21:13, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

What happened to this bot?

It seems like a good idea and very useful bot. Why doesn't it do anything anymore? --SnorlaxMonster 06:20, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
