Some broken images on older news articles were being fixed. Because of the way the story picker works, this has resulted in it getting a bit confused. It should come right on its own.
I hope you guys can fix this soon.
Looks like the server problems are starting to happen again since I am sure that X and Y are drawing all the attention, I hope these problems can go away as soon as they can, since it would be difficult to edit or even preview my work. In addition the search engine is not working properly
That had no effect!Quote:

SnorlaxMonster, why do you say that we should use, for example, "Ice types" instead of "Ice-types" when referring to Ice-type Pokémon? It causes even more confusion than simply using "Ice-type" as both an adjective and noun. In BW081, for example, there is this line: "Nurse Joy says that all the affected Pokémon are Electric and Ground types." Now it could mean that all Electric-types and all Ground-types are affected, or only Electric/Ground Pokémon are affected. Before, the line "Nurse Joy says that all the affected Pokémon are Electric- and Ground-types" was less interpretive.
Furthermore, serebii, pokemondb, and bulbapedia itself have traditionally used "[Type]-types." It's pretty common in the fanbase as a whole. I don't get why you've made this judgment, SnorlaxMonster, but I think we should just stick with how it's been referred to... and how countless BP articles—each of which would have to be edited—have as well.
Since the message was addressed directly to me, it probably would have been better to contact to me on my talk page, but anyway...Quote:

Now since you probably want some examples, here's a perfect example of correct hyphenation from Ruby and Sapphire:
Quote:
For example, your TREECKO is a GRASS type.
It's strong against the WATER and GROUND types.
But, it's weak against FIRE-type POKéMON.
Quote:
For example, your TORCHIC is a FIRE type.
It's strong against the GRASS and BUG types.
But, it's weak against WATER-type POKéMON.
Here's an example from Generation V:Quote:
For example, your MUDKIP is a WATER type.
It's strong against the FIRE type.
But, it's weak against GRASS-type
and ELECTRIC-type POKéMON.
As for how to format dual-typed Pokemon:Quote:

I have a suggestion.
I recently visited the M15 article and saw this: "In Japanese theaters, M15 is featured with the Pikachu short PK24."
And on the PK24 page I saw this: "...is the 24th Pikachu short of the Pokémon anime. It aired alongside M15."
While I bit further down, in the Trivia section, I read: "This was the first Pikachu short released alongside a movie since Gotta Dance.", where PK12 was refered by name.
If this is all because of "lazyness" or if this is already implemented then I'm sorry, but I'd suggest we using full names of movies, episodes, Pikachu shorts etc everywhere, cause I don't think abbreviations like "M15", "PK24" or "BW023" in articles is that fitting on a wiki.
It is not actual due to "lazyness" there is method behind this madness. In theory there should be no (or very few) instances in the case of BW023 being used and it instead should be seen as Battling For The Love of Bug-Types! (with the English episode name in italics), the only exception I can think of is when used in infoboxes or other templates, such as the voice acting one.Quote:

For more infiormation see Bulbapedia: Epicode.
I am really sorry if this is the inappropriate place to be posting this; but after many years of using Bulbapedia and being part of the BMG community in general, I have finally made my first (albeit minor) edit to Bulbapeda - and a fire has been lit inside me to help out as much as possible!
I'm new at this wiki-editing thing, so please be gentle with me. Can anyone point me in the direction of where I can go to find a list of things needing done etc.? Give me your most trivial and mind-numbing of tasks, I will get right on that.
Thanks in advance.
there's a spelling error in Braviary's Name origin. 2 'r's in Wargle instead of one in the last sentence.
*picky*
Warrgle's meant to have two rr's in it, so it's not an error.Quote:
