== The Preview Button ==
* [[User talk:GrammarFreak01/Archive 2]]
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.  Thanks!  --[[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 03:58, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
 
== AmourShipping hint ==
 
The last part of the XY059 Ash hint should be left as a sub bullet because it's stating a fact that's not really part of the original hint and going off on a tangent. It flows better that way. [[User:Ax3w|Ax3w]] ([[User talk:Ax3w|talk]]) 00:02, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 
== Stop ==
 
Please stop messing up the pages. I'm serious. --[[User:HoennLove200|HoennLove200]] ([[User talk:HoennLove200|talk]]) 23:45, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
 
== Forme ==
 
I noticed that you've made this mistake on both [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Ash_Ketchum&diff=prev&oldid=2496967 Ash Ketchum] and [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Clemont_(anime)&diff=next&oldid=2498318 Clemont (anime)], so I figured I should explain it to you here instead of hoping you'll read edit summaries.
 
"Forme" is a very specific official term that we use ''only'' for forms that use the term "Forme" in the in-game Pokédex. (These are mostly Legendary and Mythical Pokémon, with a couple of exceptions.) Everything else gets the generic word "form." You can check whether something uses "Forme" on the [[List of Pokémon with form differences]] article. If you're referring to Ash-Greninja, you should always use "form", never "Forme." Thanks!

== Block ==
 
Due to your involvement in the edit war with Playerking95, the staff has decided to block you for one week for edit warring. Next time, if you see someone revert your edit, don't revert them back. Discuss it with them and sort it out. After your block , I want you to try and discuss things rather than running for the undo button. Thank you.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#AB2813">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#C87365">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#26649C">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#729ABF">ire</span>]] 16:36, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
 
== Edit Warring ==
 
Hey there, over the past couple of weeks I've noticed you've been consistently removing similar contributions made by Kittystyler on a variety of pages. As you should know, this is considered edit warring, which is disruptive to the overall editing process on Bulbapedia. If you disagree with the edits that someone else has made, please contact that user on their talk page or discuss the issue on the talk page of the article(s) that the dispute is on. Continuing to edit war after this warning will result in a block. Thank you.

== Giving warnings ==
 
Regarding [[User talk:Kittystyler#Grammar]], please understand that you do not have the authority to give someone a "warning" about something. Saying you're "warning" someone of something like you did implies that you have the authority to enforce a punishment if they do not heed you. You do not. Only staff does. Please be careful about your wording in the future. If you're concerned enough, you can always bring an issue to a staff member's attention.
 
Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 10:03, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

== <nowiki>"[[the next episode]]" vs "the [[next episode]]"</nowiki> ==
 
Out of curiosity, I thought I would ask why you are making these edits to the SMxxx pages, since you seem rather set on it given your edit summary on your reversion of playerking's edit. To me, there seems to be little reason to prefer one over the other. I am merely curious, and I do not think you're doing anything wrong (though please, do try to avoid an edit war if your edits get reverted again for whatever reason).

::That's called pettiness. Don't change something because you don't like it or it triggers you. It's also such a small detail to go crazy over, "the" shouldn't be within the link unless it's part of the thing you're linking to.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#F1912B">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F6B775">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#5599CA">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#90BDDC">ire</span>]] 05:04, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

== Final Warning on Edit Warring ==
 
This is becoming a recurring problem for you, if you have a problem with a reversion, discuss it with the user that reverted you, don't just revert them on the spot. And no, before you go "I only reverted once", it doesn't matter. You still chose to revert the edit rather than come to me and talk about it. Your edits were based off petty reasons like "I don't like it". I'm sorry, but we're not going to cater the site for your nitpicky needs. The "the" shouldn't be in the link because it's not part of the context of the link. This will serve as a final warning on edit warring, if you disagree with someone reverting your edits, '''go to their talk page and discuss it''', DO NOT revert them until a consensus is reached. Thank you.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#F1912B">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F6B775">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#5599CA">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#90BDDC">ire</span>]] 12:28, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

== Characters of the day getting history sections ==
 
It isn't really necessary to revert someone because of an unexplained edit, such as what happened on [[Special:Diff/2585370|Mabel]]'s page. In this case, I explained it [[Special:Diff/2581848|here]] but didn't put it on Mabel's page as I felt it would be redundant. As for CoTD's getting history sections, I removed them because they only appeared in one episode (at most in the main series) and the history section is for characters who appeared in at least two episodes. [[User:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Patty</span>]][[User talk:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Man</span>]] 23:56, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 
:Is there any rule on that? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 23:57, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
::I haven't really found where it said so but many edit summaries in the past stated that CoTDs don't get history sections. [[User:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Patty</span>]][[User talk:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Man</span>]] 00:13, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
:::Well, if there's no precedent, then this so-called rule shouldn't apply, should it? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 00:15, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
::::That, I can't say. [[User:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Patty</span>]][[User talk:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Man</span>]] 00:25, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
:::::What in the world do you mean, no precedent, GrammarFreak01? Precedent would be every other page that doesn't have it. It in fact seems that you were the one who added the History sections to the pages linked above. I.e., until your edit, it seems the page's ''precedent'' was no History section. And no one else who touched those pages thought a History section was needed. I've also noticed that a significant number of COTD pages that have History sections seem to have been added by you relatively recently. And even then, the great majority of COTD pages still don't have a History section.
:::::FWIW, I'm not really into the anime pages a lot, but your comment makes no sense, GrammarFreak01. Even granting that you may have misspoken, it still contradicts the structure of the majority of COTD pages; the ''precedent''. Honestly, I'm not ''certain'' what's most right, but I'm inclined to stand by the pretty clear precedent... It makes reasonable sense.

Just because you didn't hit the undo button or you did and you emptied out the edit summary, doesn't mean you did not revert an edit. I told you not to revert/add back information that you changed and someone else undid, I told you to go to their talk page. But you didn't. I'll go through them one by one. The blurbs are from Pokemon.com and are '''meant''' to be unchanged from the source, regardless of punctuation or grammar errors. CoTDs don't get history sections, some do because ''you'' added them. Give me a CoTD that has a history section that you did not add, because the majority that I checked were added by you. Lastly, Marina being an idol is just speculation, she could just be plain old modelling, nothing to do with being an idol. Anyway, since you failed to adhere to my final warning above, you have been blocked for a week.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#F1912B">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F6B775">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#5599CA">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#90BDDC">ire</span>]] 04:49, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
 
== Blocked, again ==
 
Due to continually reverting edits rather than going to the talk page, you have been blocked for one week, one day per reversion. I have already told you to not revert an edit you disagree with, bring it up to the talk page of the user that reverted you. This is a common problem for you, you don't think to go to the talk page rather than reverting. You always pull the trigger even though you know the consequences. If you continue to make several reversions and ignore the talk page, the penalty '''will''' be harsher.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#F1912B">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F6B775">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#5599CA">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#90BDDC">ire</span>]] 09:16, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
 
== Code of conduct ==
 
Your recent edits to the talk pages of [[Special:Diff/2673760|Kittystyler]] and [[Special:Diff/2673766|Erica124]] display signs of aggression. As far as I've noticed your contributions, this is somewhat of a habit you have (including attempting to [[#Giving warnings|give warnings]]), and that simply isn't kosher. Play nice. If you have a problem with another user, take it to a {{bp|staff}} member and let them sort it out, don't comment on their talk page if you can't be constructive.
 
Please familiarize yourself with our {{bp|code of conduct}} and make every effort to be polite and respectful in your interactions with other users in the future. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 21:23, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
 
:Well, clearly they aren't listening to our advice, so I think some harder pushing is in order. ;) [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 22:04, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
::That's not your place to decide. You can adhere to Tiddlywink's warning or face a block. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 22:34, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
:::Why? I doubt they're reading their talk pages anyway. If anything, they should be blocked for continuing those awful edits of theirs. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 01:52, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
::::May I remind you who got blocked twice for edit warring and not using the talk page? You are walking a very thin line. If you cannot be polite with other users, regardless of how you feel about them, then you will be moved on. This is your final warning on you attitude.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#F1912B">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F6B775">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#5599CA">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#90BDDC">ire</span>]] 06:12, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
 
==Talk Page Comments==
Removing talk page comments, including the initial welcome template, is prohibited per Bulbapedia's {{bp|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! --[[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 08:44, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

== Edit warring ==
 
Please stop edit warring. If you have a problem with policy, '''take it up with the staff'''. I don't know who came up with the policies or when or why; I'm just explaining my understanding of them to you. Continually reverting things to get your way does nothing productive.

== TCG pages ==
 
I saw you doing these updating pages but please do not do those on TCG pages. There are much more to do in these pages, not only the ones you are editing. We're in the midst of doing these updating on all our TCG pages. By doing those edits that you did, we'll assume they are edited in the requirements. So please leave these TCG pages unedited please.

== Preview ==
 
You've been informed once before about the preview button. And you're a habitual enough user that you should really know how to use it well. Instead of editing a page like [[Ash's Greninja]] many times for progressive little&mdash;or even big&mdash;things, if you're planning on continuing to work on the page essentially immediately, just save it all up and do it all in one edit. There's no race, there's no real issue if you just wait to only save once. Please remember to be smart about previewing and saving. Thanks.

::Use your imagination! ^^ Let me give you a suggestion. If you're on a computer, just use a text editor to copy out bits of the text a time and edit those. If you're on a phone or something, then it may be good enough to just throw a bunch of newlines before/after paragraphs that you want to focus on; you can easily remove them later when you're finished with editing that part and move on to the next part.
::We'd really appreciate if you limit the number of times you edit the same page in succession. I'm sure it's not all ''that'' great a problem. (To be clear: that's more being polite than it is a request. You're not at any dire crossroads or anything at the moment, but it is very much something we want users to follow.) Thanks!

== Content changes and removal ==
 
Please do not remove or change content without giving a valid reason for doing so, as you did [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Pikachu_(Pok%C3%A9mon)&diff=next&oldid=2722829 here] and with several edits changing "first appeared in" to "debuted". Your edits do not appear to be constructive. [[User:MasterBraixen96|MasterBraixen96]] ([[User talk:MasterBraixen96|talk]]) 01:14, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
 
:In regards to the provided diff, it is part of a self-appointed campaign to find and remove so-called "appearances" that I've recently been informed do not count, such as photos, toys, etc. In regards to the edits where I change "first appeared in" to "debuted", I just find it simpler that way. There's no harm in that, right? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 01:30, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
 
== Headers and no content ==
 
While I can understand your thinking of "just in case", it has been an unwritten policy on Bulbapedia that a section header is not needed if there is no content. Just in case is not a valid reason to keep something. Go look at other pages and you will see common headers such as trivia, one of the mot common ones, completely missing from many pages because there is nothing to put there. --[[User:HoennMaster|<font color="blue">Hoenn</font>]][[User talk:HoennMaster|<font color="green">Master</font>]] 04:38, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

== Creating pages ==
 
As a rule, please ask someone on {{bp|staff}} about creating a new page before you actually do it.
 
There may be some pages that will always need to be created. I believe characters of the day are an example, so that case isn't a problem. But otherwise it's probably best to just check in with a member of staff before you create a page, especially if the content is already on an existing page.
 
Please keep this in mind if you're thinking about making another page like [[Ash's Pikachu (M20)]] in the future. Thanks. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 20:43, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
 
:Okay, thanks for the heads-up. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 05:47, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
 
== Consecutive links ==
 
Since you edit a lot, I thought it'd be worth bringing this to your attention. Please do not make links like [[Special:Diff/2731733|this]]. Consecutive links on words that are not plainly separate are just a bad idea all around, but especially so for mobile users who can't even tell what each link is without tediously checking each one.
 
In this case, I don't think the links to those episodes are all that useful, so I've just reverted it here. But in other cases, there are other solutions that work very well. Like, for example, just adding a parenthetical somewhere appropriate in the sentence with the links there.

== Cyndaquil and Chimchar ==
 
Could you please explain why you removed my additions to the trivia section on [[Cyndaquil]] and [[Chimchar]]? The reason you have given is "meaningless", however that is the meaning of trivia, meaningless information with little or no use. Should all trivia sections be removed? Also, I would argue that it is useful to some readers, who may want to pick a starter which will evolve more quickly (and therefore have a more powerful Pokémon earlier in the game).

== Your edit summary on Brionne ==
 
You say Playerking95 is "freaking out over mere wording", but I have to say I agree with him: your edits frequently seem like pointless reshuffling from one acceptable wording to another, made for the sole reason of fluffing up your edit count, and this is more of that pattern. I can barely use my watchlist anymore because it's so full of your edits, and I would like to cordially but firmly express my displeasure with your editing patterns. Thank you.

== Block ==
 
Due to your habit of removing talk page comments from your talk pages for no reason at all, I have given you a one month block. I decided to go with a harsher block because this is something that you commonly do, and I suspect that you do it because you are just plain salty.

Alright, lets get one thing straight. You have a history of making pointless edits. You have a history of getting into edit wars. You have a history of getting into arguments with other users. You have a history of being aggressive. And you have a history of refusing to listen to staff. So based on your history, I will not be unblocking you. We will not be lenient with you, because as it stands, it does not look like you will change your behavior. And you continuously commenting here, and removing it in the end, proves that you have not read my comment at all and have no intent on reading or heeding it.

== Page histories ==
 
Just FYI, telling someone [[User talk:Simone the Digger#Your edit|like here]] to check a page's history before making edits is, honestly, kind of ridiculous.
 
For one thing, edit summaries are often blank, and it's certainly not reasonable to ask anyone to manually check more or less every past edit to see what they were all about.
 
For another thing, no one ''really'' thinks like that. Long-time users know about issues because they're paying attention. You simply can't blame a new user for not having any idea about past situations. But I really doubt most long-time users make any regular practice of checking a page's history either. I don't. I just know about what I've noticed.
 
You can't lay such a burden as that on a person. We're all here to help everyone. If someone simply didn't know something...just let them know. ("Hey, FYI [stuff], thanks.")
 
While I'm here, [[User talk:Darkmist13#Your edit|this note]] also has room for improvement. "An edit such as this" is kind of meaningless (this applies equally to the other page referred to above); you may know what you think makes that edit more problematic than another, but they can't guess at that. If I were discussing that with the user, I would have said that 1) character names should follow their page names, and 2) character names are usually very important and should as a rule be discussed if you think a change is needed.
 
As a final note, new users may not need a talking to for one mistake. People are allowed to make mistakes, and we don't want to come off like we're jumping on a new user. Notes become more advisable if issues persist. In short: be sure to give it careful thought.

:First off, the trivia was poorly formatted. Second of all, trivia also needs to have some sort of significance to the character or the scenario at hand.

Yes, we are an English wiki, but do understand that not everyone that comes on this site is going to have the most perfect English.

If you don't know what they were trying to convey and were afraid that you would screw up the sentence, you could've either left it alone for someone else to check or '''asked''' the user what they meant. Again, not everyone that comes here is going to have perfect English, so don't expect that everyone is going to have high level English skills.

I've thought before that you have a habit of jumping into conversations where it may not be necessary. I don't fully trust that I'm altogether unbiased and/or right about it, so I haven't said anything before, but [[Special:Diff/2791956|your comment here]] puts a toe over a line. I do not consider that there was any need for any further comment at that point. Your comment just puts more pressure on the user.
 
I've kind of said it before, but please give careful thought to whether you need to jump into a given conversation. If you have something actually unique to contribute, by all means, speak up. I think you should really start to recognize when a staff member has stepped in on what can be considered an "official" matter, though. (If they're just teaching/helping, that's a bit of a different matter.) The fact of the matter is, if staff is handling that sort of thing, you should probably leave it to staff unless (again) you ''really'' have something unique to add. Otherwise, staff is very well equipped to make any response necessary themselves. It's honestly not really your place at that point to emphasize a warning or whatever.

Hi GrammarFreak. I read your message about being a little annoyed with me when I kept breaking the rules even when you were trying to guide me.

== Veralann ==
 
You're continuing to be at least a little heavy handed on Veralann's talk page. I think this comes from you being a bit overly frustrated with the user and bringing that to your interactions. I'm going to lay out two options. Either find a way to tone it down (focus on helping a new user, not on your frustration or whatever). Or just lay off your involvement on Veralann's userpage: if you see a problem with them in the future, you can bring it up to a staff member.

Hello GrammarFreak01. I know I'm no staff member, nor do I have any authority, but I may recommend that you don't call others out for pointless edits/superficial trivia such as with Tygamer64.

[[Special:Diff/2807386|This]] is the last thing from important. No one can see it and they're ''old'' episodes. If it's not actively a problem&mdash;for a ''specific'' page&mdash;it's fine as is. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 05:05, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
 
:Why do all of the recent episodes have it, then? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 05:06, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
::The answer isn't going to change the fact that there's no good reason to add it to OLD episodes. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 05:11, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
:::Then you won't mind if I remove those from recent episodes...? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 05:13, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
::::You've tried that exact tack {{DL||Pointless edits|before}} and it's entirely as obvious now as it was then. You're just being contrary. As far as I'm concerned, if you act on that contrariness, you're asking for a block. You know better. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 06:37, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
 
GrammarFreak, the old episodes don't have the hidden notes because they were made ''before'' we had the New Episode template. You don't need to go around adding the hidden note to the old episodes, it's a waste of time. And seeing as you have this thing to get to 10,000 edits a year, it can be seen as spamming for personal gain. And don't try to be smart by suggesting to remove the hidden note from recent episodes, you're clearly looking for a reaction. May I remind you that you are walking a very thin line in regards to making pointless edits. Don't make pointless edits and try to be snarky when things don't go your way, you only have one chance.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EBC600">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#EBC600">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#D8B600">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#D8B600">ire</span>]] 10:28, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
