Creation[edit]

So the idea is that this thing gets put on every moveset subpage. I have some things I want discussed first though.

  1. What kind of wording should we use? We want to avoid scaring off editors from improving the text, but dissuade them from editing the numbers.
  2. Should it be placed at the top or bottom of pages? For example, Wikipedia and Bulbapedia put this kind of thing at the bottom, which avoids top-page clutter and such, but it seems like the "please don't touch the numbers" text will never get read if it's down there.
  3. Should a different image/colour be used so it doesn't look like the "needs data" tag?
