Bulbapedia Suggestions, ideas, and problems

Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

I'd log in and edit this myself, but because of the ruckus with Black and White the Wiki is on lockdown T_T
Anyway, about the game character Sailor Eldritch: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Eldritch
I've always thought his name was a little unusual, and now I know why: 'eldritch' is an old, obscure word meaning “of a strange country, pertaining to the Otherworld”: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/eldritch
Considering the bizarre affliction his son comes down with, this is a very fitting name!
I think this info should be added to the guy's trivia section.

Good find. Taken care of.
 
Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

Don't know if it is my computer or some type of new design but the frame is screwed up when I access the game pages not counting the Black and White pages. All the info is being squeezed into the frame of the right side of the page. Thought I should let someone know.
 
Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

Someone needs to {{subst:welcome}} the newcomers. *sigh* What a bad time to join. And I see lots of mistake in the new Pokemon data pages.

That's generally a sign that the server's a little overloaded. It'll calm down eventually, don't worry.

If you compile a list of mistakes and post them here, a staff member will fix that right up.

You have to understand we're trying to make new pages for 100+ Pokemon... mistakes are bound to pop-up.

Someone should add this to the "List of Pokemon by base stats" page (and insert the names):

That's by index number, but since DPPt, they've always been by National Pokedex number anyway. Some of those are alternate formes, however. Up till 649, they should be correct.
 
Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

Looking at Tsutarja's article (and well, it will probably also apply to other articles with Gen V Pokedex entries), the Pokedex entries are copied from the games in kana.
Shouldn't they be in kanji now that BW support kanji?

If the entries are in kanji, we'll display them in kanji. Most likely, the dex entries were still in kana.
 
Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

is it possible to put up a page for just pictures? funny picture, regular pictures,scary pictures, weird picture. i think it would be a good idea.

I don't see the encyclopedic value of having that page. Just random, interesting pictures don't seem to be relevant to anything. However, I have seen some people that put these on their userpages.

If you want random pictures, go to the archives and click the random image button.
 
Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

Oh. Well, in that case, I don't see why it shouldn't be included in both kanji and kana.

The Japanese text is just there to remind people that they're translated as we move towards the English release. Ultimately whichever writing style it's in won't matter.

No. Absolutely not. Terrible idea.
 
Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

Just want to point out that I'm doing the dex entries in kana for the sake of consistency. I'm playing the games in kanji, but since we already had a handful of kana dex entries from prerelease info, I might as well keep on going with kana.
 
Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

I want to help with the Isshu Route articles, but I can't edit my user page because I only have two edits in the mainspace. Should I submit information to this thread? I'd only be able to get info like items and stuff you can get by playing the game instead of looking at its code. Is that acceptable?
 
Re: Official BULBAPEDIA suggestion/idea/problem thread

Just noticed this on Tabunne's page. The links at the top and bottom of the page to Dokkora's page are mistyped as Dokkorar. I'm not sure what the HTML reference is because I'm still a bit unfamiliar with this site's setup and editing is blocked (for obvious reasons) and I can't double check.
