Hi! Thanks for your work updating List of Pokémon by base stats in Pokémon GO. I just thought I'd let you know that, instead of editing a page in several small edits, you can use the preview button to make sure your edit look the way you want it to before publishing. You can find it next to the Save Page button. Please try it out! It helps a lot with keeping the Recent Changes feed from getting backed up, makes the page history easier to follow, and reduces stress to Bulbapedia's servers. Feel free to reach out to a staff member if you have any questions. Hope this helps! Landfish7 20:22, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Hello. Thanks for the reminder. I am aware of the button's use, but those edits were done on a phone not at my house, and thus I couldn't really check much of it properly. Anywhere else I obviously check my work, but when I'm on a phone, I just don't find it ethical to use it when it would take over a minute for it to load.
Once again, thanks for the heads up, but if you do see me making multiple small edits at once, it is literally all I can do at that time period. - unsigned comment from Setralystic (talkcontribs)
I understand that load times on mobile can be frustrating. I just advise to do the best you can. I personally save bigger edits for when I'm in front of a computer, but I understand that that's not always an option. Side note, but when you reply to a comment, you can indent your comments to distinguish them from the previous comments. Additionally, don't forget to sign your comments with four tildes (~) or by clicking the signature stamp (Signature button.png) on the top of the edit box. It should also be noted that once your comment has been marked as unsigned, you cannot replace it with your signature as it will give off the wrong time stamp. Thank you and happy editing!
