We're just over half way through the first month of 2016, and less than a month away from Bulbapedia's 11th anniversary. 2015 brought Bulbapedia several improvements, and significant progress on multiple projects, which we will discuss in more detail in February. Right now, there are still several projects that need completion, and that is why we're once again announcing new staff hires and promotions!
Yet another year has come and gone for us here at Bulbapedia. While I know I said it last year, this year has flown by so quickly as well. [[Pokémon 20th Anniversary|Pokémon's 20th Anniversary]] is in full swing, and this amazing franchise hits the milestone only ten days from now. Bulbapedia has been around to help Pokémon fans for 11 of those amazing 20 years, and it really is all thanks to the many contributors who have given their help to this astounding project over the last 11 years.


First up, we would like to extend congratulations to {{u|abcboy}} and {{u|glik}}, who are advancing from Junior Administators to full Administrators. You have excelled as Junior Administrators, and we expect nothing less in your new positions.
Bulbapedia has grown by around 1600 articles in 2015, and we hope to see even more growth through 2016. Our Anime, Manga, and TCG sections have all shown considerable growth in 2015, and we can expect just as considerable growth through 2016 for these three sections. The [[S19|19th season]] will begin this weekend for the English dub of the Pokémon anime, as we also continue to see regular localized releases of manga volumes & TCG sets.


We're also happy to welcome four new Junior Administrators, {{u|Chosen}}, {{ut|CycloneGU|CycloneGU}}, {{u|Tiddlywinks}}, and the returning {{u|Carmenstar97}}. We hope to see you all show us the awesomeness we know you're capable of.
On the other hand, the video games section has seen somewhat smaller growth this year, dominantly due to the lack of new core titles. However, with the mysteries revolving around the recently revealed {{p|Magearna}}, the upcoming Virtual Console release of the [[Generation I]] games for 3DS, the Wii U release of [[Pokkén Tournament]], the recently released [[Great Detective Pikachu ~Birth of a New Duo~]], and the highly-anticipated [[Pokémon GO]], we can certainly hope to expect to see a lot of development in the video games section in 2016.
 
Bulbapedia wouldn't be where it is today if it wasn't for all the individuals who have helped out over the years. From those who have made several thousand edits, to those who have fixed even a single typo. And, yes, even the viewers who yell at us any time a mistake happens to find its way on an article.
 
Let's all band together once again, Pokémon fandom. Let's continue to build up the best resource for Pokémon information on the internet, and make 2016 a year to be remembered!
