::I'm not sure if this is feasible but I think the proposal I made can be executed by first having at least recruiting an admin or more and a group of volunteers who are diligent and have a good record with the wiki (No biased hints, multiple edits) who are willing to help in overhauling the page. The volunteers will first sign up on a list on this talk page. Each volunteer must be approved by the admin(s). Then each volunteer will perform a certain role, such as looking at past episodes (the DP saga will be split into chunks with one volunteer assigned a range of episodes), editing hints according to Bulbapedia policies, etc. They will post their findings and any needed edits on the talk page or a designated page (see notes below). The hints will be reviewed by other volunteers to ensure that everything is valid. The admin(s) will put the page under full protection and make the suggested edits and formatting. After the edits are done, volunteers will review the page and make further comments/suggestions/complaints to the admin(s) on any of the content. After everything is agreed upon, the page will remain under Full Protection for a few more days in order to deter any users not in the volunteer group from making edits or restoring any poor hints that used to be on the page.

::NOTES: Some things of concern include the potential of the talk page being spammed so probably a new PearlShipping page can be temporarily be set up on a Wiki Sandbox site with a similar engine to Bulbapedia or a page on Bulbapedia which is known only to the volunteers. The page containing the temporary article will be PM'd by the admin to the volunteers BMGf account indicated on their Bulbapedia user page. Any volunteers without a BMGf account will be required to make an account in order to receive the article site. Note that this is just my suggestion and can be modified as seen fit. --[[User:Pkmn veteran|Pkmn veteran]] 05:01, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

The Special:EmailUser function can also be used but I think the BMGf method is more reliable. --[[User:Pkmn veteran|Pkmn veteran]] 05:01, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
