Blocked
[edit]I find it quite odd that both you and R.Lemkin received blocks, most notably after what happened at the blockade article. Hmmmm. I won’t say too much but I think I know why :-). Paul Vaurie (talk) 05:00, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Abuse of power, racism and propaganda... I guess such an end was inevitable for such a user. Kyzagan (talk) 20:32, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – December 2023
[edit]News and updates for administrators from the past month (November 2023).
- Following a talk page discussion, the Administrators' accountability policy has been updated to note that while it is considered best practice for administrators to have notifications (pings) enabled, this is not mandatory. Administrators who do not use notifications are now strongly encouraged to indicate this on their user page.
- Following a motion, the Extended Confirmed Restriction has been amended, removing the allowance for non-extended-confirmed editors to post constructive comments on the "Talk:" namespace. Now, non-extended-confirmed editors may use the "Talk:" namespace solely to make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided that their actions are not disruptive.
- The Arbitration Committee has announced a call for Checkusers and Oversighters, stating that it will currently be accepting applications for CheckUser and/or Oversight permissions at any point in the year.
- Eligible users are invited to vote on candidates for the Arbitration Committee until 23:59 December 11, 2023 (UTC). Candidate statements can be seen here.
