Notes

Note for these interesting times. User talk:Iridescent#Reply, having slept on it is a smart take on what is likely to happen on WP for the next few weeks/months(/years?). I promise to try to (a) be less snarky than usual, and (b) be more understanding of others' snarkiness than usual. If you think I need to dial something back, emailing me to say "Dude, maybe dial it back" is more likely to work than publicly posting a lecture on my talk page. Only because I'm human and don't like getting embarrassed.
Normal humans: I'm an admin again! Not around too much, so best to ask another admin for help, but I'll do what I can, when I can. For the foreseeable future, I'm even less likely to have time to help than normal. Still responding to pings and talk page notes about stuff I'm already involved with, but any other requests will probably be politely deflected.
Admins: If you think an admin action I've taken in the past is wrong or no longer useful, go ahead and undo or change it without feeling like you have to talk to me first.

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.

I wanted a little time to pass but I did want to acknowledge your last message to me at ACN and to say that I hope I can regain the faith that you've lost me. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 21:03, 7 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hmmmm..... how to answer without looking like a jerk.... The point I was making is really important to me, and I don't want to minimize it, so I'm going to undercut my apology a little; it's not a non-apology apology, but it isn't a neat, clean apology either. I still really think the arbs/clerks handled Giano's insults and H's baseless accusation unfairly and wrongly, and I still think your comments there were really unfair and (in their own politely worded way) kind of insulting. And last I looked, H has never actually admitted they were making a false accusation, just that they couldn't prove it.

But I was angry and worded that too aggressively. Sorry for losing my temper. (....but you were still wrong....) --Floquenbeam (talk) 00:16, 8 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
