Welcome to Bulbapedia, Sir Jolteon!

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!

The Preview Button

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --PattyMan 00:40, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

Reminder of the Preview button. You saved seven separate edits in 12 minutes. I can understand two or three depending on the content of the edits, but seven could easily be condensed by previewing your work. CycloneGU (talk) 15:27, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Talk Page Comments

Removing talk page comments, including the initial welcome template, is prohibited per Bulbapedia's talk page policy. Please do not remove any comments in the future. If you wish to clean old comments away, you should archive your talk page instead. Thank you! --Abcboy (talk) 15:34, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Mainspace edits

Hello, I have noticed that you have been editing your userpage quite a bit and noticed that your last mainspace edit was in October last year. This is not acceptable. Your amount of mainspace edits must outweigh your amount of userspace edits, otherwise your userspace privileges will be revoked. Bulbapedia is a wiki first and foremost, not a blog. So please make more mainspace edits and less userspace edits. Thank you.--ForceFire 05:30, 6 June 2020 (UTC)

Well gee, I'm sorry I don't have a steady stream of information to add to pages and that I'm not constantly monitoring each page I look at for little mistakes I can correct. This is my account, and I'll make whatever edits to my own personal page that I please, which after my previous edit, is most likely going to be nothing for a long while. So if it will help you sleep at night, please go ahead and take my userspace editing privileges away. But first let me tell you that it is a genuinely stupid rule. Given how you were able to use your mod powers to find my obscure page, I'm sure you've seen other users who just don't have much to contribute, and I don't know how two edits in one week when the previous edits were almost half a year prior seemed important enough to give me a warning over. Please consider using your mod powers to tend to more pressing matters and kindly buzz off. --Sir Jolteon (talk) 07:41, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
