<ab>The site is from TCRF admin GlitterBerri. For the purposes of Bulbapedia, it is a reliable source, especially since it provides an accurate English translation of an interview not available online from official channels. And {{bp|Notability requirements|Bulbapedia}} is not {{wp|Wikipedia:Verifiability|Wikipedia}}.</ab> [[User:SatoMew2|<b><span style="color:blue">Sato</span></b>]][[User talk:SatoMew2|<b><span style="color:pink">Mew</span></b>]] 00:55, 16 February 2015 (UTC) | <ab>The site is from TCRF admin GlitterBerri.

:Similar statements/edits were taken down by Force Fire, Crystal Taitan or someone else of their rank(s)because they were from unofficial sources/fansites. I only follow site precedent. Also, when you change Trainer and/or move names, discuss it with an admin first, because they have warned you and others multiple times of the ramifications to site integrity that those sort of changes make. I suggest you abide by their wishes w/o pushing your personal agenda and/or beliefs on how this site is run. --[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 01:23, 16 February 2015 (UTC) | :Similar statements/edits were taken down by Force Fire, Crystal Taitan or someone else of their rank(s)because they were from unofficial sources/fansites.

::<ab>You are not an admin, therefore it's not up to you to decide if the source is acceptable or not (and in this case, it is). Following "site precedent" to the letter is a bad idea, particularly when positive contributions are nullified by poor judgement. | |||
Your (and others') claims that fixing what are clearly wrong, oftentimes machine-like, noncontextual translations has serious consequences to "site integrity" are ludicrous. There are {{DL|Shipping:List of shippings||far more grave practices}} on the wiki that are clear violations of its policy and actually impact its integrity, yet no one seems to care. This is an English wiki first and foremost; its users come here to get accurate and preferably well-sourced information on all things Pokémon that deserve to be here. They will not be affected by some Japanese text changing, unless they're specifically interested in it, in which case they will benefit from having proper translations anyway. {{bp|Dispute resolution#When not to contact administrators|And you're not supposed to ask permission from admins at the slightest thing that you do}}, which is definitely the case here. | |||
I took offense at your accusation of stealing. I don't steal content and always try to find good sources for stuff that may need them, like in {{an|Amber|I's case}}. I am not pushing an agenda, I'm contributing to make the wiki a better source for Pokémon fans. Furthermore, it's true that sometimes I change my mind or appear undecided, and I have no trouble admitting it, but all I can do is recognize my mistakes and try to do better next time. I shan't give up on contributing just because someone disagrees with me, and you're supposed to counter my incorrect or questionable information with an actual argument, not by appealing to authority and/or tradition.</ab> [[User:SatoMew2|<b><span style="color:blue">Sato</span></b>]][[User talk:SatoMew2|<b><span style="color:pink">Mew</span></b>]] 18:19, 16 February 2015 (UTC) | |||

I noticed that in [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Force_Palm_%28move%29&diff=prev&oldid=2249834 your reversion] to Force Palm, you mentioned that an admin told the user not to do it, and I'm noticing that in your recent edit summaries you're using some of the wording I used in my edit summaries. In case you've mistaken me for an admin, let me clarify for you that I'm not.
