I'd like to contribute.

I'd like to contribute Steel-type related entries to the 'pedia. How would I go about that, and do I need to know anything about how things work? (eg coding)

What do you mean, exactly?

We have pages on alll of the Steel-type Pogeys listed here: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Category:Steel-type_Pokémon

And whatever work you can do on them is always welcome.

The coding is really simple to pick up and can probably be learned just by a quick examination of any of our good pages.

Well, I'd actually like to contrbute things, not just about Steel-types. I have some ideas. They completely ignored me about these over at Serebii, but maybe you'll listen. (NOT TRYING TO START A FEUD BETWEEN BMG AND SPP HERE, NOTHING PERSONAL TO SPP)

A Find-em dex, this will tell viewers how to get every pokemon in every advance game all on one page.

A detailed card dex, this will tell people about all ex-set cards and what they are most compatible with, also why people use them.

And finally, a place to be able to get the little pictures of every pokemon to download, either the tiny ones in the GBA menu or the larger ones in battle. Screen Caps get annoying and take time and effort.

I'd also like to help with the second one, I have much experience.

So, whaddya think?

This brings up an interesting opportunity. Why couldn't we put sprites in the individual Pokémon pages? That would be very helpful.

The "Find-em" dex could be created under a "Generation III/Locations list" page. Most certainly. A detailed cardex would be a bit more of a challenge, because I do aspire to have a page for every single card at some point in time. So perhaps we could work that around and figure out a format for indexing the cards on one page or a series of pages based on release/set groups.

You can always contact me either via E-mail, AIM, PM, or MSN to discuss this further. I'm always willing to listen.

Clutter. We've discussed this before - they can go into galleries on Archives.
