Shortcuts Staff BP:Staff

Bulbapedia's staff consists of five levels of responsibility, ranging from Junior Administrators to the 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 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.
