Vandalism
A rise in the survival of long-term vandalism, even in heavily trafficked articles.

Systemic bias
Unlike many wikipedians, I am not middle class; I save, conserve, and sacrifice to have both an internet connection and a computer. As a result, I do not have the regular experience and comfort with technologies that many wikipedians do.

Article deletion and notability
An increasingly hostile and confrontational tone among users—especially those who get a rush on declaring the importance of material. Eager admins who do not fully understand or disregard wikipedia policies.

I also used to enjoy creating new articles, something that is increasingly hard because wikipedia if wikipedia great success, but also because of over eager admins who attack new articles.

I have even seen one deleted because of notability, when a quick googling would have shown otherwise.

Process
Recently I saw an article de-featured with no notice given on its talk page.
