[edit] Pokemon Diamond and Pearl

The page you just created (Pokémon Diamond and Pearl/Cheats) seems rather unnecessary to me, since there are already seperate pages for Action Replay and Other Cheats. If you have any cheats to add, please do so in their respective pages. I'm going to go ahead and delete the page you just created. Happy editing!--DukeRuckley 14:54, 17 August 2007 (CDT)

Can you take care of the pages linking in for the page you moved? Thanks :) -- Prod (Talk) 17:33, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

I didn't work on any of those pages....Angel14995 17:35, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

I just checked, the links work fine. Is that all you wanted me to do? Angel14995 17:38, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

Right now they point to the misspelled name. Can you fix them so that they point to the properly spelled name? It keeps the spelling consistent everywhere (and avoids the redirect). -- Prod (Talk) 17:44, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

So just change the page links to the correct place? Just change Shinou to Sinnoh? Angel14995 17:46, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

Yup. That way we avoid linking people around in circles and avoid creating too many redirects. If you move a page, just check that nothing links to it (or at least nothing important, historical archives don't really matter). Once again, welcome to the site, and thanks for taking care of that :). -- Prod (Talk) 17:52, 26 August 2007 (CDT)

Ok, I think I did it. Thanks for the notice, I'll look into that now whenever I move things. And thanks for welcoming me! Angel14995 05:39, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

Sekoku hasn't been around for over a year, feel free to edit away :). -- Prod (Talk) 21:29, 28 August 2007 (CDT)

Thank you very much. And that was the R/B/Y, am I correct? And is there a way to add on to a section without editing it in talk? Just wondering.... Angel14995 13:59, 29 August 2007 (CDT)

I think it was supposed to be a general guide. What do you mean about the talk? -- Prod (Talk) 21:02, 29 August 2007 (CDT)

I mean like on a discussion page, is there a way to add to a section without editing that section, sorta like posting on a forum? Angel14995 13:49, 30 August 2007 (CDT)

Beyond what you're doing (indenting) no. In a way it's better, in a way worse. You can have multiple "threads" within a single discussion, but its a bit more difficult for people to understand. -- Prod (Talk) 19:49, 30 August 2007 (CDT)

[edit] Finding Maps

Hi Angel. I got your email. I wish I could be more helpful, but in this case, I really can't. Most of the maps that I've used for Red/Blue/Yellow and Gold/Silver/Crystal have come from emulators. Regular Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and even Game Boy Advance emulators have been out for a while now, so maps for popular games like Pokémon are easy to come by. And even if they weren't, I could map the games out myself if I really cared to try (but it's a tedious process, so I prefer to leave it up to someone else). The problem here is, not only is Diamond and Pearl relatively new, the DS is also rather new, and difficult to emulate properly. Although progress is being made, and you can in fact get Diamond and Pearl to play on some of the emulators, you have to a) have the ROM, and b) the NDS BIOS and c) be somewhat of a sophisticated emulator user to understand how to get them to work together. If you are confident that you could get that far, then you could theoretically be on your way to mapping the game. Beyond that, the only other suggestion that I have is to wait a while, and see if someone else manages to work on the game and posts it to www.vgmaps.com. Good luck.

Thanks for even trying. No, I have no clue about how to get the Pokémon ROM and NDS BIOS out, so I'm stuck waiting. If anybody does find something, please post it, it would help out so much.Angel14995 20:17, 3 September 2007 (CDT)

[edit] Empty pages

Please can you stop creating empty guide pages, unless you plan to come back within a few minutes and add some content to them. Creating empty pages gives a false impression of a guide's completion, takes up unnecessary space, and people often forget to come back and fill them in, meaning they get left empty, and aren't helpful to anyone. As it stands, all those empty Pokémon pages you created aren't going to help anyone get through the game. I hope you understand, and keep editing! --DrBob 17:49, 16 October 2007 (CDT)

Ok. I was getting it ready for anybody who starts on it so that the header and footer would not have to be changed. But I'll stop :) Angel14995 11:25, 18 October 2007 (CDT)
