Your GA nomination of Tiberius (son of Maurice)
The article Tiberius (son of Maurice) you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Tiberius (son of Maurice) for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Guideline and policy news
 * Following an RfC, extended confirmed protection may be used preemptively on certain high-risk templates.
 * Following a discussion at the Village Pump, there is consensus to treat discord logs the same as IRC logs. This means that discord logs will be oversighted if posted onwiki.

Technical news
 * DiscussionTools has superseded Enterprisey's reply-link script. Editors may switch using the "Discussion tools" checkbox under.

Arbitration
 * A motion has standardised the 500/30 (extended confirmed) restrictions placed by the Arbitration Committee. The standardised restriction is now listed in the Arbitration Committee's procedures.
 * Following the closure of the Iranian politics case, standard discretionary sanctions are authorized for all edits about, and all pages related to, post-1978 Iranian politics, broadly construed.
 * The Arbitration Committee encourages uninvolved administrators to use the discretionary sanctions procedure in topic areas where it is authorised to facilitate consensus in RfCs. This includes, but is not limited to, enforcing sectioned comments, word/diff limits and moratoriums on a particular topic from being brought in an RfC for up to a year.

Miscellaneous
 * Editors have approved expanding the trial of Growth Features from 2% of new accounts to 25%, and the share of newcomers getting mentorship from 2% to 5%. Experienced editors are invited to add themselves to the mentor list.
 * The community consultation phase of the 2021 CheckUser and Oversight appointments process is open for editors to provide comments and ask questions to candidates.

FAR
Not sure how far back in history your interest in Roman emperors goes, but would you be interested in looking over Diocletian at some point? It's one of the oldest notices at WP:FARGIVEN, and it should probably be determined soon if FAR is going to be needed. Hog Farm Talk 02:26, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
 * No problem, I'll get on it. Given the mix of primary resources and the probably source-muddling, I'll probably rebuild it in my userspace in the next bit. The other URFA's (Domitian, Maximian, Manuel I Komnenos, Augustus) all generally seem much more put together, but I'll give them a look as well later.

 * Thanks! Hog Farm Talk 05:26, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for Basiliscus
Thanks for fixing up Basiliscus and helping us mark it as Satisfactory at WP:URFA/2020. I apoligise if I seem harsh in my reviews: I'm nervous that articles will not be reviewed for 10+ years, so I want to leave it in the best condition possible. I hope you will continue to help out at URFA/2020. If you ever need a reviewer, feel free to ping me. Z1720 (talk) 02:58, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I appreciate it. And no worries, I totally understand. I'll take you up on that, I've got several emperors to go. Iazyges   Consermonor   Opus meum  06:42, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

October thanks
Thank you for improving articles in October, and even a FA! - Today: see yourself, read about a hymn praying to not be on earth in vain, about a comics artist whose characters have character (another collaboration of the "perennial gang", broken by one of us banned), and in memory of the last prima donna assoluta, Edita Gruberová. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:35, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
