:It's a hidden number that even I don't know the answer to. You should focus on making good edits and not worry about your userspace. Good luck!

== Removal of Origin Information == | |||
I am very, very much against the outright removal of information from the origin section of Zygarde's page, and would instead recommend we take an approach which aims to condense the information and remove information which is already mentioned in the Wikipedia page, which - as you mention - we link to. | |||
I argue this because of two primary reasons: | |||
- Zygarde is largely unprecedented in that it has not one, but five different formes which need their inspirations explained. Because of this, the section on origin is naturally going to be much larger than that for most other Pokemon. | |||
- Zygarde has a number of complicated mythological inspirations which need to be explained, and leaving out certain details fails to explain the importance of the mythological bases. For example, leaving out the information that Jörmungandr is an ouroboros, which symbolizes cycles (such as the cycle of life and death) is a mistake in my eyes because it is crucial information to understanding Zygarde's link between Xerneas and Yveltal. Instead of removing that information, the long-winding explanation I wrote can be shortened. | |||
I can personally work on simplifying the information I wrote previously if that's alright. I had been concerned with adding all the information I could before, but my focus had changed towards condensation even before your edit. Frankly, even I recognized that the section was getting long and wordy, and I was going to work on getting everything neater. | |||
So, basically, can I do what I was planning on doing before? [[User:Pacack| <span style="background:#000000"><span style="color:#ffe700">'''Pa'''ᗧ•••</span><span style="color:#0000FF">ᗣ'''ck'''</span> </span>]] 16:12, 16 April 2016 (UTC) | |||
