Administrators' newsletter – April 2021

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

Administrator changes

Alexandria • Happyme22 • RexxS

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

A community consultation on the Arbitration Committee discretionary sanctions procedure is open until April 25.

Question

I appreciate the lock that you made on Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated but why an infinite block? It was only one user who made that vandalism.

It had been protected several times before, and a request for infinite was requested.--Berig (talk) 04:16, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:Krakkos submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

I nominate Berig to be Editor of the Week. A veteran editor and administrator active since the earliest days of Wikipedia, Berig has a Ph.D. in linguistics and is an educator by profession. He has created and substantially contributed to hundreds of articles, particularly on subjects such as Germanic peoples, runology and the Viking Age. Significant contributions by Berig include the articles Greece runestones, Midvinterblot and Norse funeral. These topics are complicated and often controversial, and Berig's participation in such discussions frequently contributes to the establishment of a consensus based on sound conclusions.
