We're just over half way through the first month of 2016, and less than a month away from Bulbapedia's 11th anniversary. 2015 brought Bulbapedia several improvements, and significant progress on multiple projects, which we will discuss in more detail in February. Right now, there are still several projects that need complation, and that is why we're once again announcing new staff hires and promotions!

First up, we would like to extend congratulations to abcboy and glik, who are advancing from Junior Administators to full Administrators. You have excelled as Junior Administrators, and we expect nothing less in your new positions.

We're also happy to welcome four new Junior Administrators, Chosen, CycloneGU, Tiddlywinks, and the returning Carmenstar97. We hope to see you all show us the awesomeness we know you're capable of.
