== Creating new pages ==
Hi! I just wanted to let you know a few important things when creating new pages:
* Please make sure to add relevant categories to any new pages you create, such as [[:Category:Game staff]] for [[Takato Utsunomiya]] or [[:Category:Japanese Pokémon Center collections]] for [[WAKKA de IKKA]]. You can do this by adding a link to the category near the bottom of the page, like you did with <code><nowiki>[[Category:TCG illustrators]]</nowiki></code> on zounouse's page. Almost all pages should have a category, as it prevents them from showing up on [[Special:UncategorizedPages]] and also lets users navigate between related pages via the category listings.
* To keep the references from showing up below things like navigation templates or the project notice, you can use <code><nowiki><references/></nowiki></code> or {{template|reflist}} to display the references list exactly where you want it.
* When making new pages based off an existing page, make sure to remove any irrelevant interwiki links. For example, on [[zounose]]'s page, the code <code><nowiki>[[it:Tika Matsuno]]</nowiki></code> added an "In other languages" link to the sidebar to {{it|Tika Matsuno}} on our Italian affiliate, which wouldn't be appropriate on zounose's page. You can just remove this code on new pages, and BulbaBot will add the relevant links if and when the other wiki makes a page on the subject. BulbaBot can't tell if an interwiki link was just copy-and-pasted and isn't supposed to be there, so please remove incorrect ones to keep it from getting confused.
Thank you! --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 23:04, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
