:What is this "3RR"? Three Revert Rule? That does not exist. Plus, if a vandal edits 100 pages, why should a user only revert three every hour? That would take a day and a half just to revert a vandal's mess. What you did was virtually the same, you caused problems on a mass amount of pages and they had to be fixed as soon as possible. I am just doing my job of fixing problems. [[User:Moldy orange|Moldy orange]] 21:01, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm a new user, but I'm trying to get all the sprites done for the pages and I was going through and changing some to the correct sizes of 64 x 64, it worked for most of them, but for Arcanine and Poliwag, the images are squashed when they appear on an actual page, as in their pages on the wiki or in their category listings, am I doing something wrong or is this just the system? I've just checked the wiki and now the sprite images that I've changed are wacky on there too and don't match up with their normal sprites.

== Stadium ==
I have recently uploaded Pokémon sprites (even though they're not technically sprites), and some are looking great (to me). Although there are some minor bugs, as small Pokemon (like Caterpie and Weddle) look terribly small, and they have minor Artifacts in them (such as the Bulbasaur one). Though that's not what I'm here to tell you about.
I'm here to tell you that there are two Categories linking to Pokémon stadium. One is <nowiki>[[Catergory:Pokémon Satdium]]</nowiki> and the other is <nowiki>[[Category:Stadium]]</nowiki>; both having the same purpose. The latter was created first btw.
What great solution can you come up with to decide which stays and which goes?--[[User:Force Fire|Force Fire]] 10:11, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
