RFA2024 update: phase I concluded, phase II begins

Hi there! Phase I of the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:

• Proposals 2 and 9b (phase II discussion): Add a reminder of civility norms at RfA and Require links for claims of specific policy violations
• Proposal 3b (in trial): Make the first two days discussion-only
• Proposal 13 (in trial): Admin elections
• Proposal 14 (implemented): Suffrage requirements
• Proposals 16 and 16c (phase II discussion): Allow the community to initiate recall RfAs and Community recall process based on dewiki
• Proposal 17 (phase II discussion): Have named Admins/crats to monitor infractions
• Proposal 24 (phase II discussion): Provide better mentoring for becoming an admin and the RfA process
• Proposal 25 (implemented): Require nominees to be extended confirmed

See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron (talk), via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Your EotW nomination

back in early March is finally working its way up to the top of the queue. I have recently started to award mid-week in addition to Sunday in order to speed up the process and get the awards where they belong--on the editors talk page. I am updating the nomination just a bit. Thanks for all you do! Buster Seven Talk (UTC) 13:32, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Good idea. Nice to see the award so busy. It doesn't seem that long ago that we were scratching around trying to find worthy recipients. Let me know if there is anything I can help with. Gog the Mild (talk) 19:53, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Agreed! A crowded Queue is a good problem to have. Don't hesitate to nominate is still the active thought. Buster Seven Talk (UTC) 14:08, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Welcome back. Just in time to congratulate your nominee. TRA Buster Seven Talk (UTC) 20:45, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Rapide

hi gog, welcome back from the trip :). hope i’m not rushing you or anything but this FAC has three supports, and a source review and image review both completed (it’s been open for nearly a month). mind taking a look at it? thanks and best! 750h+ 15:22, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

How strange, that was literally the last thing I was looking at. And thinking that I agree with FrB.TG. Let's see if we can get another reviewer to give it a once over. Gog the Mild (talk) 15:26, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Ok, i’ll see if i can get somebody. Editor PCN02WPS kindly decided to leave comments :). 750h+ 15:37, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

PCN finished his review, and it seems like he’ll be leaving a support :). 750h+ 23:32, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

(Non-gimme gimme gimme comment) This whole gimme gimme gimme approach is frankly disgusting. ——Serial Number 54129 15:34, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
