AFC/R requests
[edit]Hello Pinguinn. It appears you have, without being aware of the situation, created nearly a thousand redirects at the request of an LTA. In the future, you need to be careful about processing any requests related to comics, Marvel, and Rick Morty, those are some of the tell tale signs of this person. I've now blocked the IP of that abuser. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:12, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
- So sorry about that, wasn't aware of that LTA. Would it be possible to have some kind of warning or editnotice placed on that page for future editors who aren't aware? Pinguinn 🐧 23:39, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
- It's rough, there's a mix of DENY to it, and some of us being diligent in our efforts but slipping and missing. AFC/R is bad for LTAs slipping past us unfortunately. Hey man im josh (talk) 23:43, 24 April 2025 (UTC)

[edit]News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2025).
Administrator changes

NaomiAmethyst (overlooked last month)
Interface administrator changes
Guideline and policy news
- Following an RfC, administrator elections were permanently authorized on a five-month schedule. The next election will be scheduled soon; see Wikipedia talk:Administrator elections for more information. This is an alternate process to the RfA process and does not replace the latter.
- An RfC was closed with consensus to allow editors to opt-out of seeing "sticky decorative elements". Such elements should now be wrapped in {{sticky decoration wrapper}}. Editors who wish to opt out can follow the instructions at WP:STICKYDECO.
- An RfC has resulted in a broad prohibition on the use of AI-generated images in articles. A few common-sense exceptions are recognized.
Miscellaneous
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in May 2025 to reduce the backlog of articles in the new pages feed. Sign up here to participate!
