==Phase III==
==Phase III==
To be announced on February 14, 2009.
As if TTE's hints weren't enough to let you know, Phase III of Project Overgrow is improvement of ''this very wiki''. You may notice the stylistic changes that have been occurring for the past month and a half, generally regarding the appearance of templates.
 
Most of the details regarding this phase of the project can be found [[Bulbapedia:Messages from the Editor#February 14|here]], however, there are several other important details.
 
The {{bp|manual of style}} will be rewritten, condensed, and compartmentalized. This is due to the fact that it is viewed by many users as little more than an incoherent wall of text which doesn't tell anything about Bulbapedia styles or conventions. Bulbapedia administrators as well as the leaders of the many projects on Bulbapedia will work together to detail specific stylistic conventions that adhere both across these differing areas as well as those specific to each project.
 
[[Bulbagarden Archives]] will have an improvement drive, during which images will be categorized and some images will be moved to new names so as to standardize their linkage and use throughout the Bulbawiki network. Duplicated images will be redirected to the most proper filename, and a system will be devised for images that follow a pattern, such as Pokémon's [[Ken Sugimori|Sugimori]] artwork or sprites.
 
[[Bulbanews]] also needs love, and {{u|Argy}} is the person to talk to about it. Keep in mind that it's likely better to contact her over her talk page [[n:User talk:Argy|there]] rather than here, or even better, in the forums.
 
Also, drama will not be tolerated from this point onward. Bulbapedia is not Wikipedia, and we are loathe to become the drama-filled bureaucracy that it has. So don't get a big head. Don't contribute to Bulbapedia to make yourself well-known, contribute to Bulbapedia to help expand knowledge. And please, do something ''besides'' sit on it all day, okay?
