Annddddd we’re back! As some of you may have witnessed over the past 48 hours or so, Team Rainbow Rocket interrupted and temporarily gained access to Bulbapedia during our attempt at performing our scheduled site update.  
Hello! This message is for all Nintendo fans out there.


Fear not however, Bulbapedia staff has regained control of the site once again. However, there were more damage to the servers done than expected and we’ll have to keep editing locked for a *bit* longer as we repair and shore up our defenses to prevent an incident like this from occurring again. Stay tuned for a full status update later this week once this work is complete.
September 20th starts [[Bulbapedia:Cross-Wiki Week|Cross-Wiki Week]]! What is '''Cross-Wiki Week'''? It's an annual event hosted by the [[Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance]] to encourage collaboration across all of our NIWA wiki partners! This 10-day event (spanning two weekends) aims for editors to contribute to franchises outside of their normal activity. For full details, visit the official event page [https://niwanetwork.org/cross-wiki-week-2024/ here].  


Thank you again for your patience and we can’t wait to be open for business again soon!
We encourage everyone to give it a try, even if it's only a few edits!

'''For participating editors''':
* When trying out a new wiki, be sure to check their policies and guidelines on how to help.
* Use the hashtag ''#cww'' in your edit summaries for a chance to win a Nintendo eShop card! Two winners will be drawn.
 
'''For those new to [[Bulbapedia]]''', please check out the [[Bulbapedia:Cross-Wiki Week|Cross-Wiki Week landing page]], the [[Bulbapedia:Editor's Hub|Editor's Hub]], and the [[Bulbapedia:Bulletin Board|Bulletin Board]] for ways to help out. We look forward to seeing the expertise you bring to our Pokémon encyclopedia.
 
This year, the primary focus is on editing ''wikis you don't usually edit''. Make sure to branch out! With many recent game releases and re-releases on [[Nintendo Switch Online]], this is a great time to ensure those smaller franchises get the attention they deserve.
 
Good luck and happy editing!

Hello! This message is for all Nintendo fans out there.

September 20th starts Cross-Wiki Week! What is Cross-Wiki Week? It's an annual event hosted by the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance to encourage collaboration across all of our NIWA wiki partners! This 10-day event (spanning two weekends) aims for editors to contribute to franchises outside of their normal activity. For full details, visit the official event page here.

We encourage everyone to give it a try, even if it's only a few edits!

For participating editors:

  • When trying out a new wiki, be sure to check their policies and guidelines on how to help.
  • Use the hashtag #cww in your edit summaries for a chance to win a Nintendo eShop card! Two winners will be drawn.

For those new to Bulbapedia, please check out the Cross-Wiki Week landing page, the Editor's Hub, and the Bulletin Board for ways to help out. We look forward to seeing the expertise you bring to our Pokémon encyclopedia.

This year, the primary focus is on editing wikis you don't usually edit. Make sure to branch out! With many recent game releases and re-releases on Nintendo Switch Online, this is a great time to ensure those smaller franchises get the attention they deserve.

Good luck and happy editing!
