In 2009, Bulbagarden began a series of overhauls known as Project Overgrow, after Bulbasaur's Template:A2. The purpose of this project is to renew all aspects of the Bulbagarden website to better serve its users, and to integrate the individual sectors better into Bulbagarden as a whole.

Phase I

To read more about the staff hires that comprise the bulk of Phase I, click here! Also, if you're interested in joining the Bulbagarden staff, take a look at the aforementioned post on the forums.

The beginning of Project Overgrow will involve an increase in Bulbagarden's overall staff presence. This will mainly be in the sectors of Bulbagarden which have overgrown their current staff and require more assistance; most specifically Bulbanews. Please remember that as with Bulbapedia, Bulbanews is editable by anyone, and so if there is news to report, you may do so, while adhering to the Bulbanews manual of style. Specifically, Argy has requested that users who know much about the TCG and manga take a greater interest in our news wiki.

The Bulbagarden forums will also be seeing an increase in moderators. Prospects will not be judged based on how many times they beg current moderators to be in the running. This will only lead to you not being chosen, so don't do that. Internet etiquette, folks.

RPGwiki, the often forgotten fourth wiki of the Bulbawiki network, will also finally be seeing some use after it was mostly abandoned in 2005. Rules and information regarding forum RPs will soon be placed there for easier organization, after, of course, it is synched to the other three wikis and the forums.

Other changes to staff will be made as well, however, there is no need to worry. Most, if not all, will be familiar faces who frequent Bulbagarden and who are known well.
