== Proposed Merge for a Fandom Article == | |||
Hey, | |||
The other day I proposed a merge of [[The PokéMasters forums]] into the [[The PokéMasters]]. Do you know who I could best direct this to in the fandom side of things to get this looked at? Feel like it might just languish otherwise. [[User:RotaRaichu|RotaRaichu]] ([[User talk:RotaRaichu|talk]]) 10:47, 8 February 2020 (UTC) | |||

== Constest category colors == | |||
Hey, could you change templates of contest category colors onto these used on [[Template:Ribbon]]?

== Template request thingy == | |||
For Generation IV, there exists an option to place "Honey" into the encounter template to result in a "Honey tree" link.

== Split: List of Pokémon with form differences == | |||
With regard to [[Talk:List_of_Pokémon_with_form_differences#Pok.C3.A9mon_GO|your suggestion]] from a while back, I've drafted a split for [[List of Pokémon with form differences]] and a Pokémon-GO specific page. | |||
* [[User:TehPerson/Form differences in Pokémon GO]] | |||
With this, it allowed more room to explain other form-relevant mechanics in PoGO that the main article didn't have room for (e.g. regionals and Shadows). [[User:TehPerson|TehPerson]] ([[User talk:TehPerson|talk]]) 17:57, 23 February 2020 (UTC) | |||

== Fix templates == | |||
Hey, could you change "Egg Groups" into "Parent Egg Groups" in "Template:Movehead/Level" and "Template:Movehead/Special"? Also, on "Template talk:Bag2" TheICTLiker4 and I made a suggestion, what do you think about it?--'''[[User:Team Rocket Grunt|<span style="color:#CC0000">Rocket</span> <span style="color:#666666">Grunt</span>]] ([[User talk:Team Rocket Grunt|<span style="color:#CCCCCC">Report To Me</span>]])''' 23:14, 13 March 2020 (UTC) | |||
:I believe that's deliberately only in the header of Egg Move sections, because those are the sections where the parent's Egg Group is most relevant. For level-up moves, "Parent Egg Group" doesn't necessarily make sense, since not all Pokémon are hatched from Eggs. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 04:32, 14 March 2020 (UTC) | |||

== Emulated Games == | |||
I've been thinking about testing the effects of some [[:Category:Moves in need of research|moves]] and [[:Category:Abilities in need of research|abilities]] in earlier generations (mostly gen III), but since I currently only have access to games from generation IV and later, I wanted to know if information about these effects taken from emulated games would be considered reliable enough to be included at the appropriate pages. Not sure if there is already some defined guideline abouth this, but if so I don't recall seeing it. Thanks in advance. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 21:50, 19 April 2020 (UTC) | |||
:Emulated games are usually fine. However, I would urge caution when using them as a source for any kind of glitch behaviour. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 08:14, 20 April 2020 (UTC) | |||
::Alright, thanks. I'll be careful in case the effects may involve a glitch. [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 15:03, 20 April 2020 (UTC) | |||
== Disassembly source == | |||
I recently decided to investigate some of the Gen II and III game mechanics (and contribute/discuss if it is relevant). I was immediately pulled into the disassembly / source code projects [https://github.com/pret/ here]. I have noticed that these projects are referenced/discussed a lot on BP, so I should assume that it is reliable, am I correct? I guess I am not entirely familiar with the background and origin of the project. | |||
Also, if I do contribute (either supervised or not), should I explicitly include a reference to the code (either in text or using "ref"? I have seen it a few times (searching for "disassembly" on BP), but it is clearly not the norm. I have seen other articles where "only the official media counts". How 'official' are the disassemblies then? Thank you. [[User:Rarecandybar|Rarecandybar]] ([[User talk:Rarecandybar|talk]]) 10:14, 15 May 2020 (UTC) | |||
:You should assume the disassembly projects are accurate, yes. They are the result of a lot of hard work of fans to work out the assembly code by using the game binaries. | |||
:We wouldn't normally add citations to the disassembly, but it is often a good idea to link to the relevant section in your edit summaries and on talk pages if you're using information from it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:56, 15 May 2020 (UTC) | |||
== Page split? == | |||
In the same manner as the Card Key article, among other item articles, was split into separate item articles due to distinctive differences, should the S.S. Ticket article be split, given that there are three distinctively different versions of the item? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:16, 20 May 2020 (UTC) | |||
:For the other key items, they had different sprites or index numbers. For the S.S. Ticket, they all have the same sprite, and in Generation III and IV they had the same index number (within a generation). It wasn't until ORAS that the items started to be given separate index numbers. | |||
:Maybe it makes sense to split them. I'm not sure, but it would certainly make it difficult to link to the page from the Gen III and IV list of items by index number pages (they'd probably need to link to the disambig). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:02, 20 May 2020 (UTC) | |||

== Disallowed usernames == | |||
Hello, I have a few requests: | |||
* Only three [[Generation VIII]] Pokémon names are on the [[MediaWiki:Titleblacklist|username blacklist]]{{tt|*|This is a title blacklist, but the disallowed usernames are marked by <newaccountonly>}}, and the other names should already be there. Other missing names are those of [[Ultra Beasts]] introduced in {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} and {{p|Zeraora}}. | |||
* Who is the current leader of Bulbapedia's technical stuff (like categories or templates)? | |||
* The template {{template|tt}} has not included in the warning that the characters < and > are not allowed in the second parameter, or the template will be broken. To display them, it is necessary to use HTML entities: &lt; and &gt;. | |||
I am waiting for answers. --'''''[[User:Bfdifan2006|<font color="grey">Bfdi</font>]][[User talk:Bfdifan2006|<font color="red">fan2006</font>]]''''' 16:51, 26 May 2020 (UTC) | |||
:I personally don't think it's particularly important to add new Pokémon names to the title blacklist. Other staff might disagree. | |||
:There isn't currently any individual person in charge of categories and templates. If the category or template is associated with a specific medium (e.g. games, anime, etc.), the Editorial Board member in charge of that medium would have responsibility for that template. | |||
:That should be added as a note to the template, although I would need to pick the right time to do so, because the template is very highly-used so editing it will cause some downtime. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:44, 13 June 2020 (UTC) | |||
== User template edit request? == | |||
Now that the big Pokémon anime series renaming is complete, I noticed one important thing that probably should be edited: the user templates "User Advanced Generation" and other similar ones should probably be edited to match the new series titles.

== Research Templates == | |||
I was wondering, we have quite a few items that don't have their effects very well understood, much like moves and abilities, but we don't have a good way to set their articles appart from other pages with incomplete notices. With that in mind, I propose we either create a notice template specifically for items (I already have that [[User:Suic12-/Template:ItemResearch|in my userspace]]), or we somehow merge the [[Template:MoveResearch|moves]] and [[Template:AbilityResearch|abilities]] notices so that they contemplate effects in general (which would include items as well). [[User:Suic12-|Suic]] ([[User talk:Suic12-|talk]]) 23:07, 12 June 2020 (UTC) | |||
:I'd rather just make a general "Game research" template and replace all of them (including {{template|GlitchResearch}}). I don't see what the point of breaking them up that way is. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:41, 13 June 2020 (UTC) | |||

:::It's fine for me that we make a general game research.

Hey, a user named {{user|LobãoBR}} was vandalizing {{p|Porygon}}'s page. I'm not sure they're up to anything else, but I would recommend hidding those revisions.
