Administrators' newsletter – April 2021

News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2021).

Administrator changes

removed AlexandriaHappyme22RexxS

Guideline and policy news

  • Following a request for comment, F7 (invalid fair-use claim) subcriterion a has been deprecated; it covered immediate deletion of non-free media with invalid fair-use tags.
  • Following a request for comment, page movers were granted the delete-redirect userright, which allows moving a page over a single-revision redirect, regardless of that redirect's target.

Technical news

  • When you move a page that many editors have on their watchlist the history can be split and it might also not be possible to move it again for a while. This is because of a job queue problem. (T278350)
  • Code to support some very old web browsers is being removed. This could cause issues in those browsers. (T277803)

Arbitration


Natural Born Citizens

Just for the record, I have no objection to 151.196.126.78's removing his/her comment from my talk page. No one else need feel compelled to reinstate it. Normally, this sort of action should have been left to me to do (or not), but I'm not going to quibble this time. Thanks. — Richwales (no relation to Jimbo) 02:31, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
