Month abbreviations
Hi, thanks for the good work you have been doing lately, since I've been real busy IRL. Just one thing — not every month is abbreviated. Check the manual of style... Jan. Feb. March April May June July Aug. Sept. Oct. Nov. Dec. Thanks! --Argy 06:23, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
- Sure, no problem. It's really more peaceful here. *tc26* 07:00, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
You
AIM, got it?--RexRacer 00:41, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
- Not at the moment, but I could I guess. tc²₆tc26 09:55, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
- What about MSN? Yahoo? Could you get on IRC? XD--RexRacer 21:23, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
- I have Yahoo tc²₆tc26 10:42, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
- I assume you also have access to the development forum on BMGf? That largely explains what Rex wanted to discuss. —darklordtrom 09:57, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- This thread? tc²₆tc26 10:34, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- Indeed. —darklordtrom 11:32, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- Check your PMs!--RexRacer 02:56, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
- Check your PMs on YIM, please? Thanks, ►Ҝəυzø8 11:39, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
Redirects
It's probably best not to delete the redirects that are created when you move an article to a new title. If they're deleted, they'll break URLs in the news reporting forum. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 12:17, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
This page
Pokémon sprites, art evolve over the years, Part 2. I'd like to edit it, but as part of Bulbanews format, I can't edit it. I realize that. However, there is a file I want to change: Raikou's. The current file (Sugimori art) is in jpg, while the one back in Archives is in png. Please change it so it is consistent. Thanks. ht14 16:17, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
- There is no Sugimori art there... only anime art.--Mew a.k.a. Immewnity* was here at 17:05, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, I misread it... ht14 17:06, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
Were you referring to the Arceus movie thing? You put movie 10 and 11 leading up to movie 12's JP premiere, and those definitely were not the first time those movies aired...--immewnitythemew 14:38, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
- Good point, so I'm not sure what to do with movies. tc²₆tc26 17:12, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
Why?
Why won't you at least mention Flint in the title? I don't care if it's the tag line. His appearance is just as important. We all knew Volkner would eventually appear. The appearance of an Elite Four member is special. --Kenji-girl 16:36, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not against it, but as I said, he's already in the tagline, so it would have been repetitive. Change the tagline first and then add him to the title. tc²₆tc26 09:47, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- Having the Ō in page titles causes problems, though. —darklordtrom 10:29, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- Where? In the forums? So we'll use Ooba? tc²₆tc26 12:40, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- No, here on the wiki. For whatever reason, the nonalphanumeric characters won't work with the redirect system. I don't know about any forum issues. Ooba seems a good compromise. —darklordtrom 06:12, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
new article
are you going to move it to the mainspace Maverick Nate 15:38, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
- I'll let Kevz do it. There might be some missing info, and I'll be going soon. Why'd you ask? tc²₆tc26 15:42, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
- I'm talking about it with evan. He gives the green light, it just needs to have the rumor tag on it. Maverick Nate 15:45, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
- I've heard CoroCoro has been released five days early from the usual release date, so maybe it's not just a rumor anymore. ►Ҝəυzø8 15:47, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
- Well, then maybe the rumor tag may not be needed. Maverick Nate 15:49, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry for the mistakes, I mucked up with different info coming from the net + I'm drowsy. Got to go to sleep, bye guys~ ►Ҝəυzø8 15:50, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
A Suggestion :)
Hey TC, can you please add DP147 "Bagged then Tagged", DP168 & DP169 in the list. I noticed that the list wasn't updated yesterday that's why I thought I should inform you. --♫♪Adyniz♪♫ 04:27, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry for bugging you again, DP148 to 151 are also revealed + new temp pics for 168 & 169 are also available (these things to be updated). Thank you. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 06:48, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
- Done. Thanks. ►Ҝəυzø8 09:20, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
- My pleasure. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 16:32, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
- Again, time to update upcoming episodes list.
- Replace the Dawn pic with [[File:DP175 temp.png]] and similarly DP176, 177 and 178.
- Remove DP153 & 154 from the dub list and add DP156 in the titles. Thank you. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 11:17, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry about that. Been away for like a month. tc²₆tc26 04:01, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
- No problem. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 05:38, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
- Hey Tc, DP159 is missing in the upcoming english episodes section. Can you add it please? Thank you. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 06:50, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
Suggestion
Lose the sponsored section. It's a bit old-fashioned and largely irrelevant, which is one of the reasons why BP dropped it. —darklordtrom 05:34, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
- Ugh. Fully did see what I did on that usertalk page. Thanks for fixing it. For future reference, redlinked pages to the userspace (incl. subpages) do not end up on the Wanted list. —darklordtrom 10:30, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
- Pokebeach says the starter names weren't revealed. Publish if you haven't done so already. —darklordtrom 11:12, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
O RLY?
I laughed when I saw this. Mr. Never Knew This Existed edited it a year ago. Oh, tc. :D--immewnitythemew 13:12, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
- The I must have forgotten. :D I don't really remember everything I placed a category on. tc²₆tc26 00:28, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
- I know. :D --immewnitythemew 14:44, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
You won't know this, but
The wikis are locked to all but staff. —darklordtrom 10:14, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- But some people read things at a later time. tc²₆tc26 10:34, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah. I was just keeping you in the loop. Because you're staff on all three wikis, you wouldn't have got the notice when you tried to do anything (except Archives, which was superlocked). —darklordtrom 05:43, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
- I actually never notice if this one's locked. 'pedia usually has a notice on top. tc²₆tc26 06:22, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
Reimu
It wasn't beta. It was fake.--immewnitythemew 13:49, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
Update...
Hey TC, I think it's time to update the upcoming episode list. It has been few weeks since the last time it was updated. So, kindly update it if you don't mind. Thank you :) ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 12:58, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
October CoroCoro begins to leak
When you're finished there, or before you go away for any length of time, delete that page and recreate it with the coding you're doing now, at a slightly different name. We've got a weird error with the RSS on that one, looks like it happened due to some edit made to the story after it was moved out of draft. Not sure what the exact issue is, but this is a work-around we've used before. --Archaic 13:08, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
Roundy vs. moz-border-radius
Could you make sure to use {{roundy}}, please, when putting tables into articles. This lets everyone (except those stalwarts on IE) see the roundiness. It works just the same was as -m-b-r. Cheers. —darklordtrom 11:21, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
The white space on the RHS of the article template
Have you tried hovering over the green bar? —darklordtrom 21:59, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
It is trom-approved already, there is no point in moving it back to draft. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 08:59, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
- I see no harm with reporting wider afield, especially with the current lull in news. The original title probably wasn't the best though. —darklordtrom 10:47, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
Question concerning a file removed from a story I started...
Why'd you take out this file and replace it with this file?
~~LDEJRuff~~ 4:05, 8 July, 2011 (EDT)
- It's an article about a new C-Gear skin, not Pikachu. Logically a picture of the skin should be there. The way it was before would be like reporting an article on a new feature of Castelia City and using a picture of a generic port city. But keep on submitting articles kid, we always need writers. --RexRacer 18:41, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
Promotion
You said that it is always capitalized. I did some research, and found this, this, and mot importantly this conflict with that. The second one does capitalize it when referring to the "Promotions page", but not when referring to the promotions themselves. Likewise, this and this capitalize "Promotions" when referring to the Promotions page. This does not, which leads me to assume that this is a new standard. I'm pretty sure the only reason it is capitalized is because it's referring to a page. --SnorlaxMonster 08:51, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
- I first thought it was kind of like a retcon thing, but yeah, your points make sense :D tc²₆tc26 00:41, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
The Pokémon Global Link
Actually, I have done a fair amount of research into this, and it is always prefaced by "the" when used in a sentence:
I could also find many more examples on the Pokémon Global Link website, Pokémon.com and in the BW instruction booklet if I wanted as well. If I say that something does/doesn't take "the", I have usually done my research. --SnorlaxMonster 02:20, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
Style
Can I recruit you to help out with updating Bulbanews:Article submission? You seem to be good at remembering the finicky bits of article submission that I always forget. We're trying to make things clearer for new contributors and I think you'd be a great help. Things like what happened today with that article title, and anything else you can think of... add them somewhere. Reorganize the page if you think it'll help. Cheers. —darklordtrom 11:06, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
- Sure, no problem, though you may want to update this and this with the changes you made and all :) tc²₆tc26 04:14, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
- I'm working my way around, slowly. Thanks for your help. :D —darklordtrom 10:18, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
Japanese (English)
Remember the style when reporting an article about a Japanese event is Japanese (English). I know it's a pain but we should still do it. Thanks man--RexRacer 15:12, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
Can I?
can I ask where you got the info for this? http://bulbanews.bulbagarden.net/wiki/%27Best_Wishes!%27_preview_clip_reveals_events_of_future_episodes Just curious thats all?Prinben 19:46, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
- They show those clips after certain episodes premiere in Japan, like one-hour specials. In short, after the TV show. :) tc²₆tc26 00:49, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
- yeah I mean do you have a link to show me this in jap or the full ep with this on the end? Prinben 22:19, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- I believe that tc watches the show via KeyHole TV, so no, a recorded version is not legally available, unless TV Tokyo posted it online themselves.--immewnitythemew 23:08, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- Filb has it. --P S Yライダー☮ 23:38, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Why?
Why did you delete the user_fa tag
please
Please Let me to edit my page one more time--Alipikachu ~~ Talk 06:36, 23 September 2011 (UTC) Please
You can't do that please let me to correct my page just one time i promise you that i don't edit it any more--Alipikachu ~~ Talk 07:10, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
