== [[Template:Article]] ==
I just want to tell you that the new template for news articles is looking absolutely flawless, thanks for all the hard work. <span style="color:#00FF00">♫♪</span>[[User:Adyniz|<span style="color:#6699FF;">'''Ady'''</span>]][[User talk:Adyniz|<span style="color:#99CCFF;">'''Niz'''</span>]]<span style="color:#00FF00">♪♫</span> 14:17, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

== Thanks for updating the story I submitted... ==
...but the file [[a:File:566Archen Dream.png|566Archen Dream.png]] is already used in the article as a top story picture. Maybe you can add [[a:File:567Archeops Dream.png|this file]] instead?
Anyways, sorry about adding the video.<br />

:I'm guessing it was a video you made yourself? I didn't think it was something that should be run, as it wasn't exactly an official attempt to get the episodes aired, and I'm sure they'll air soon enough.
:I guess I can change the image, but since the episode is mainly about Archen I think it'll be okay just to have the same picture. &mdash;'''<span style="font-family:Verdana">[[bp:User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<span style="color:#000">darklord</span>]][[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<span style="color:#0047AB">trom</span>]]</span>''' 03:39, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, Trom I wondering if there was anyway I could edit my columns after they are published? I feel kind of silly reporting my own mistakes, and I feel I may have to in many future columns (I'm not perfect :3). Is that possible, or would that mean maaking me an admin?

== Rudehamtaro ==
Hey Darklord Rudhamtaro with a News question.... I understand  you deleated my first artical in the series  Flares Battle Corner! and I was woundering what EXACTLY was wrong with it. In this case I can fix and repost the file. thank you -Rudehamtaro☆
:Hi Rudehamtaro. If you want to publish a column series you need to approach the Bulbanews {{bn|board of editors}} with your idea as prescribed [[Bulbanews:Contact us|here]]. Only after you have gained approval can you submit draft opinions. However, the article you wrote was not up to Bulbanews quality standards. Take a look at our {{bn|manual of style}} and brush up on your spelling. If this is too much, you may be more interested in writing personal blogs at [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net Bulbagarden forums]. &mdash;'''<span style="font-family:Verdana">[[bp:User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<span style="color:#000">darklord</span>]][[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<span style="color:#0047AB">trom</span>]]</span>''' 10:16, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

== Site issues ==
1. Why is it that the tabs on top (history, edit this page, watch, etc.) aren't in roundy? Is it just me?
2. There's a problem with the "Originally reported" portion on the front page.

: I know there's a problem with the front page. I'm working on a new layout for that anyway, so we'll get there. The error is because we have the new "user" parameter which the {{template|lead article}} template does not pick up.

== Redirects ==
Trom, do we need [http://bulbanews.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Special:ListRedirects&limit=500&offset=0 these draft redirects]? I was thinking to get rid off them but they're in a huge quantity. So, I thought I should ask you first, just in case if they're being used somewhere.

==Learning better Newspaper stuff==
Hey! As you have been the primary editor of the articles I have been submitting, I figured it would be safe to ask this to you. I would really LOVE a job as a columnist or reporter (or both?) for Bulbanews. I have been trying to prove that I am not above going to the obscure (AKA the Japanese stuff I can't understand) to try to get a story and its direct stories, but something that I know I could improve on is my "newspaper style" writing. I mean I took journalism 101 my sophomore year of high school, but I really don't believe that it has given me the full understanding I need (as evident by all the edits I need). I was just wondering if you could refer me to a source for me to broaden my knowledge so that I can continue to contribute to Bulbanews.
Furthermore, could you explain how to submit an article to National Bulbagraphic? It appears to be the same as Bulbanews, and I don't want to submit an article to Bulbanews by mistake.
Sorry for the long message, but thanks in advance. --[[User:BaileyPlaysPokemon|BaileyPlaysPokemon]] 05:57, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
:Hi there. Your contributions thus far have been better than we are used to for new users to Bulbanews, so good job :) For more information on how we do things, have a look at the {{bn|article submission}} guide, {{bn|manual of style}}, and maybe {{bn|resources}} as well.
