Happy April! In an effort to become a bit more transparent with the community on what the Staff is up to, we are getting back to more regular Message from the Editor updates.
Happy July!  


'''Pages needing attention''': The Editorial Board has been diligently going through the backlog candidates for moves, merges, splits, and mainspacing to try to get some long overdue decisions rolled out. If you had a particular page that you wanted to bring to the staff’s attention for quicker review, please contact any staff member and we’ll do our best to expedite the discussion. We thank you for your patience as we work through these items.  
As you may have noticed already over the past few weeks, the Bulbapedia staff has been hard at work reviewing, updating, and clarifying several of our official policies that drive many of the procedures that occur on the wiki. At this point in time, the {{bp|Code of Conduct}} and  {{bp|Blocking policy}} have been updated and we have created a new {{bp|Speculation policy}} that we hope will clarify our official stances on many issues that occur during editing and will hopefully make for a much smoother editing experience for everyone.  


'''Username Change Requests''': Due to technical issues with the function we use to rename users, we will not be fulfilling user rename requests until further notice. We hope to have this feature back for use as soon as possible!
During this time, staff will also be reviewing our category of [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Category:Bulbapedia_proposed_policies proposed policies] and mainspacing ones that we feel will be beneficial as official policies. If you have any ideas or proposals you would like Bulbapedia staff to consider, please create the page in the Userspace and mark it ready for review by adding <nowiki>{{Policy|policy|proposed}}</nowiki> to the top of the page. Additionally, you may use the talk pages of existing policies to propose ideas or suggestions for policy changes for staff member review. Alternatively, you can reach out to an Editorial Board member directly.


'''Editor’s Hub''': Over the past several weeks, the Editorial Board has been working hard to find ways to make editing and working on the wiki more of a collaborative process for users. Stay tuned for pending additions to the current Editor’s Hub that will enhance the experience for users, old and new, alike. As always, any staff member is more than happy to listen to any suggestion for things or improvements you’d like to see brought to Bulbapedia.
Happy editing!

Happy July!

As you may have noticed already over the past few weeks, the Bulbapedia staff has been hard at work reviewing, updating, and clarifying several of our official policies that drive many of the procedures that occur on the wiki. At this point in time, the Code of Conduct and Blocking policy have been updated and we have created a new Speculation policy that we hope will clarify our official stances on many issues that occur during editing and will hopefully make for a much smoother editing experience for everyone.

During this time, staff will also be reviewing our category of proposed policies and mainspacing ones that we feel will be beneficial as official policies. If you have any ideas or proposals you would like Bulbapedia staff to consider, please create the page in the Userspace and mark it ready for review by adding {{Policy|policy|proposed}} to the top of the page. Additionally, you may use the talk pages of existing policies to propose ideas or suggestions for policy changes for staff member review. Alternatively, you can reach out to an Editorial Board member directly.

Happy editing!
