CheckUser changes
 * Gnome-colors-view-refresh.svg Courcelles

Guideline and policy news
 * Following an RfC, editors indefinitely site-banned by community consensus will now have all rights, including sysop, removed.
 * As a part of the Wikimedia Foundation's IP Masking project, a new policy has been created that governs the access to temporary account IP addresses. An associated FAQ has been created and individual communities can increase the requirements to view temporary account IP addresses.

Technical news
 * Bot operators and tool maintainers should schedule time in the coming months to test and update their tools for the effects of IP masking. IP masking will not be deployed to any content wiki until at least October 2023 and is unlikely to be deployed to the English Wikipedia until some time in 2024.

Arbitration
 * The arbitration case World War II and the history of Jews in Poland has been closed. The topic area of Polish history during World War II (1933-1945) and the history of Jews in Poland is subject to a "reliable source consensus-required" contentious topic restriction.

Miscellaneous
 * Following a community referendum, the arbitration policy has been modified to remove the ability for users to appeal remedies to.

Thanks for the reports at WP:UAA but please note that some wikis allow organisation accounts - see Commons policy for an example, the German wiki is another. Please don't report users at WP:UAA if they haven't edited on this wiki. Cabayi (talk) 08:09, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

explain how it is not constructive. 2.86.206.211 (talk) 08:31, 18 June 2023 (UTC)


 * The web archive url helps to access the reference if the link is ever moved or deleted (dead link) . You removed the archive url and the archive access date enirely . Kpg  jhp  jm  08:36, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
 * ok, there are cases where it makes sense to do that. instead of warning me, as if i vandalized, you could have added back the archive-url and archive-date parts and written an edit summary explaining why you added those things back without making the https: link an http: one again. 2.86.206.211 (talk) 08:56, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
