Recently, in Platinum, while being bored, I was going around and catching all the first-in-evolution-line pokemon I could. But when I got to the Dual-slot mode updates, I was largely confused. Several different references within Bulbapedia said that Solrock, Lunatone, Zangoose, Seviper, Mawile, and Sableye were not obtainable in Platinum, while others did. To investigate, I went to the places that the references that told me I could catch those pokemon. And sure enough, all those were catchable, and I have them all now. I would update Bulbapedia with this information, but I do not know enough wiki to do the job. If someone else could update this that would be largely helpful.

The Dual-slot mode page is correct, but the Pokedex page for each pokemon and the route/location where you can find these pokemon are also incorrect.

To whomever does this: Thanks!

BP isn't HTML, it's wiki. Wiki is easy, HTML's hard comparatively.

We've just never gotten around to putting the locations for everyone in Pt, mostly because we've had serious issues since it came out.

Rubbish. You can learn HTML in an hour and be a master of it in a day. Of all the programming or pseudo-code languages out there, HTML is far and beyond the easiest to master.

I've used the Wiki code on and off since BP went up and still haven't got a clue how to do half the things in it, and am never sure about the rest. It's just no-where near as intuitive or obvious as HTML is. Obviously one can't use actual HTML input in an open-to-edit system, but Wiki code is just an over-complicated mess that makes me wonder how on earth it's survived this long as it has.

An extension of the familliar and much easier BBCode would have been a better choice...
 
I figured it out, but, I have another problem that warrants a new thread...
 
Hey guys, I fixed all of them! Mawile and Sableye's pages were already fixed by someone else, and I fixed the rest up:bounce:
 
Thanks BlazakingX!! I was going to get around to it, but I had other issues.
