-It's now three years since we opened Bulbapedia to the public and we are very proud to announce that Bulbapedia now has over '''8,000 articles'''. That's nearly double the number we had this time last year! Congratulations and thank you to everyone who has helped us achieve this incredible milestone.
+Due to an overwhelmingly large amount of edits going on in the {{code|User:}} namespace, we have disabled edits to all pages within it for the time being. We are monitoring how much the lack of ability to edit personal pages will affect the server, and when the results come in, we will make a decision on what to do.
-We are also announcing today the appointment of [[User:TTEchidna|TTEchidna]] as '''[[Bulbapedia:Editorial board|Deputy Editor-in-Chief]]''', in recognition of his continuing and vigilant watch over Bulbapedia.
+If you feel the need to create a userpage or edit it now, you will have to wait. '''''Do not''''' create a page in the main namespace to move to the {{code|User:}} namespace under any circumstances. The results will likely be conclusive after about a week, and you will be informed with another message from the editor about the return of functionality.

+Additionally, a policy on signatures is being discussed on the Bulbapedia forum on BMGf, so please, take a look at it even if you are not a member, as it may affect you.
-<!--Please do not sign the MftE, as it is supposed to be a decision representative of the consensus of the entire editorial staff and not just an individual editor.  -->
-<!-- Please do not remove that last line -->
