Welcome to Bulbapedia, ThunderBrine!

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules:

  • Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct.
  • Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around.
  • Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page.
  • Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style.
  • You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy.
  • Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
  • If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite.
  • Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
  • For more handy links, see the welcome portal.
Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

Linking Pokémon articles

Hey! Whenever you link a Pokémon article, you need to use the {{p}} template to avoid leaving behind a redirect. For example, {{p|Crustle}} is the proper usage, not [[Crustle]]. Thank you! GrammarFreak01 (talk) 05:35, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

Moving content

Moving/splitting content to another page must be approved by the Editorial Board. There has not been a consensus on whether the page should be split on the talk page. Thank you--ForceFire 06:32, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

The Preview Button

Hey! Whenever you make an edit to an article, any article, please the preview button located at the bottom left of your editing screen. It will allow you to preview the edits you make before you actually publish them. That way, you don't have to make multiple consecutive edits like you've been doing at the Passive Skill article. Doing so is absolutely unnecessary. Thank you. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 20:00, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

Diantha color

Only staff can make color templates. As for a "Diantha" it is not needed. Thank you.--ForceFire 16:51, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

But Diantha (and Leon) has an established color palette as well, like Cynthia and Alder. Why the inconsistent treatment? ThunderBrine (talk) 16:57, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
Diantha and Leon uses more than one color, whereas Cynthia and Alder only use one.--ForceFire 17:12, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

Template:Colorscheme/doc

Your edit to this template documentation was unnecessary, and made it incorrect. Not all of the same parameters are available in Template:Colorschemethree as the others. For example, using Kanto or RG won't work on that template, but the edit you made to the table made it look like it would. Please only edit template documentation if you know how templates work. Accuracy is more important than aesthetics. - bthrussellUK (talk) 08:33, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

Templates

Heya, I have the two colour templates you just made moved over to your user space as they are not approved for use in the mainspace. In general, we only reserve the creation of new colour templates only for certain situations, and as you were told by Force Fire before me, these should be approved by staff before they are created. The same is true for any kind of notice template. In the future if you deem a colour or notice template to be missing that you feel we should have on Bulbapedia, run it by a staff member first for their approval or create it in your user space and for possible staff approval. If it is deemed appropriate any staff member can mainspace such templates where needed. 4iamking 23:03, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Question: Which colour templates were those? Having trouble finding them and adding them to my list.--ThunderBrine (talk) 23:11, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
Also, I'm an active member in the Bulbapedia Discord (thunderrose) if you need to talk to me more readily.- unsigned comment from ThunderBrine (talkcontribs)
This and that, which you just created about an hour ago, please do not create more of them in the template namespace. 4iamking 23:24, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
Another was also moved to User:ThunderBrine/Template:Target. Tiddlywinks (talk) 02:08, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
