Administrators' newsletter – May 2024
News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2024).
- Phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship review has concluded. Several proposals have passed outright and will proceed to implementation, including creating a discussion-only period (3b) and administrator elections (13) on a trial basis. Other successful proposals, such as creating a reminder of civility norms (2), will undergo further refinement in Phase II. Proposals passed on a trial basis will be discussed in Phase II, after their trials conclude. Further details on specific proposals can be found in the full report.
- Partial action blocks are now in effect on the English Wikipedia. This means that administrators have the ability to restrict users from certain actions, including uploading files, moving pages and files, creating new pages, and sending thanks. T280531
- The arbitration case Conflict of interest management has been closed.
- This may be a good time to reach out to potential nominees to ask if they would consider an RfA.
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in May 2024 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles in the new pages feed. Currently, there is a backlog of over 15,000 articles awaiting review. Sign up here to participate!
- Voting for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) election is open until 9 May 2024. Read the voting page on Meta-Wiki and cast your vote here!
Reminder to vote now to select members of the first U4C

A barnstar for you!
The Copyright Cleanup Barnstar | ||
I see you haven't recieved a barnstar in awhile, so I just wanted to re-iterate what others have in the past in that I appreciate your review of RD1 requests and application of revision deletion. The promptness of your actions also help a non-administrator such as myself, in that it confirms to me that I am accurately spotting copyright violations rather than wasting administrator time and incorrectly biting newcomers. Your work is appreciated! —Sirdog (talk) 06:27, 7 May 2024 (UTC) |
Thanks. It's a bit of a grind at times but easier when there's people like you doing the legwork in identifying the stuff and labelling it up beforehand. Nthep (talk) 08:58, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi, it regarding repeated addition of COPYVIO material by the same IP range here copied from Ancestry.com. Previously, it was revdeled by you here. I'd like to request page protection if possible. Thanks. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:53, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for removing copyright violations
I'm DrPlantGenomics, and write wikipages for women. I also am a single parent and working while raising my children, and write pages while volunteering, i.e. I don't have much free time. I had some pages get notified for copyright violations yesterday, despite my best interests. The process of having copyright violations was rather offputting as I dip in and out of wiki editing according to work and parenting. I was about to say 'if copyright violations are the result, people with more time can edit, and I'll nominate women in science for prizes', but given you removed the violations, I am less likely to reshift my volunteering away from wiki. Many thanks. You have restored my faith in the best way to uplift other people. Also, I don't know the appropriate way to comment on other people's talk pages, so I hope this works. Many thanks again.
