-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.
+Now that February and the leap day is done, it is time to leap into a new project! We're really excited to announce this month's content improvement drive: {{bp|Manga March}}! As the name suggests, for this month, we'll be focusing on improving coverage on all [[Pokémon manga]], from the popular [[Pokémon Adventures]] series to the most obscure one-shot magazine chapters, and everywhere else in between. Every week, a new area of focus will be added &mdash; one series that's been licensed in English and one series that's currently still Japanese-only, starting with [[Pokémon Adventures]] and [[Pokémon - The Legend of the Dragon King]]. The Manga March page has been updated with many examples of articles from those series that need improvement or expansion to help you get inspired! Of course, these are just examples, there is always lots of room for new contributions related to manga, even if they aren't listed! Please visit the {{bp|Manga March}} page for more information, and if you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the [[Bulbapedia talk:Manga March|Manga March improvement drive's talk page]], or you may contact {{u|Zesty Cactus}} or any other staff member listed on {{bp|Project Manga}}. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to Project Manga in the past, present and future, and we hope you will all enjoy helping to make Bulbapedia one of the best resources for Pokémon manga information!
-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.
-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!
