== Questioning This ==
I have come across an edit by [[User:El shendee|El_shendee]] (specifically, [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Outrage_%28move%29&diff=2017464&oldid=2013631 this] edit) and noticed that the user - a new user from all appearances - has gone ahead and updated a lot of move pages with data that we cannot confirm has actually been confirmed (see [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:Contributions/El_shendee contributions]).  Having been independently confirming moves already, I know that just listing every single user as automatically learning the same move at the same level is not a safe thing to do as it may result in inaccurate and incorrect information.
I wanted to reach out to you to ask whether it would be wise for me to undo all of these edits in light of having already found some differing levels (see my past edits, I've often noted them in the edit comment), thus allowing those researching independently to confirm them individually again.  I believe this is an enthusiastic new user who thinks he is helping but is instead hindering the ability to independently verify information.  I'm actually about to use a Ditto I have in my possession to start breeding babies and thus allow me to verify a lot of move data at once; while it's possible this user may have also done so, I question whether this is indeed the case.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 22:19, 16 November 2013 (UTC)
