They can be considered the highest authority on Bulbanews, with power to set official policy, endorse non-binding guidelines, appoint and dismiss staff members, and approve and reject news articles, columns and opinion pieces.

Executive members

Due to their service to Bulbagarden and Bulbanews, three former members of the Board of Editors retain their Editor usergroup as executive members. They are not considered current members of the Board of Editors and are not active on Bulbanews, thus unlikely to respond to talk page requests.
