'''BEHOLD'''!!! The mighty {{p|Kyurem}} is upon us!


After an unbelievable hype, the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black and White sequels]] (yes, there are two of them) have [[n:Pokémon Black and White 2 revealed on Pokémon Smash!|finally arrived]]. Please be ''extra'' cautious while adding new information to the articles and avoid baseless speculation as well. All information must come from official [[Nintendo]] sources, not from fan sites.
Effective immediately, new requirements regarding the use of four templates that are extremely important to the continued improvement of Bulbapedia have been mandated:


With that being said, do not forget to say hello to our newest [[n:Keldeo to be revealed in upcoming CoroCoro|family]] [[n:Meloetta quietly revealed in M15 poster|members]], {{p|Keldeo}} and {{p|Meloetta}}.
:''When using the templates {{template|Split}}, {{template|Merge}}, {{template|Move}}, and {{template|DiscussDelete}} to nominate articles for administrative action, a section outlining the rationale for the nomination '''must''' be added to the article's talk page. Nominations lacking an outlined rationale will no longer be considered.''
 
On the other hand, thank you for participating in the <span class="plainlinks">[http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f590/ Christmas contests]</span>. We hope that you all had a good time. As far as the prizes are concerned, our webmaster {{u|Archaic}} is trying his level best to ship them as soon as possible. So, bear with us and have some patience.
 
Last but not least, please welcome our new Bulbanews Editor-in-Chief, {{u|The dark lord trombonator|trom}}! We would like to wish him all the very best for a bright future. To our former Editor-in-Chief {{u|RexRacer}}, thank you for serving [[Bulbanews]] for almost three years and making it a wonderful place for all of us. Good luck, sir!


An outlined rationale helps to expedite administrative action, and helps to prevent confusion and misunderstandings that can result in mistakes. Keep in mind, the staff aren't mind readers, and not every nomination reason is obvious.

Effective immediately, new requirements regarding the use of four templates that are extremely important to the continued improvement of Bulbapedia have been mandated:

When using the templates {{Split}}, {{Merge}}, {{Move}}, and {{DiscussDelete}} to nominate articles for administrative action, a section outlining the rationale for the nomination must be added to the article's talk page. Nominations lacking an outlined rationale will no longer be considered.

An outlined rationale helps to expedite administrative action, and helps to prevent confusion and misunderstandings that can result in mistakes. Keep in mind, the staff aren't mind readers, and not every nomination reason is obvious.
