Bulbapedia:Staff: Difference between revisions

Bulbapedia's '''staff''' consists of five levels of responsibility, ranging from {{bp|Junior Administrators}} to the {{bp|Bulbagarden Executive Staff|Executive Staff}}. In addition to their powers and duties on the wiki, Bulbapedia staff have special ranks on the [[Bulbagarden forums]] and [[Bulbagarden Discord]] that allow access to dedicated areas where they discuss key decisions and strategic planning for Bulbapedia.

What Bulbapedia looks for in its staff is a willingness to contribute meaningfully. In accordance to Bulbagarden's [[Bulbapedia:Values|four core values]], Bulbapedia staff act as leaders for the encyclopedia, fostering a welcoming and inclusive environment for all contributors.  

 

To become a member of staff, users are expected to contribute at a higher level by developing an expertise in Bulbapedia's practices and styles and then using that expertise to help less experienced contributors. Staff members are encouraged to explore new and unique ways to develop Bulbapedia's content, even regarding superficially ‘boring’ subjects.

3) Offering the community and staff a chance to impact Bulbagarden and all Pokémon fans through opportunities to contribute, grow, develop, and lead
