Access dates
Regarding this edit, If you don't know how to fix an access date error, please leave it alone rather than commenting it out. Also, the image didn't add anything to the article. --Guy Macon (talk) 06:05, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Accessdates are not obligatory, so I have been told... Lotje (talk) 06:07, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Roughly 99% of Wikipedia is not obligatory, but that won't stop us from blocking your ability to edit Wikipedia if you persist in removing non-obligatory things with no good reason.
 * Nuvola apps important.svg Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. --Guy Macon (talk) 09:39, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you for giving an example. Lotje (talk) 04:20, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – July 2017
News and updates for administrators from the past month (June 2017).

Administrator changes
 * Gnome-colors-list-add.svg Happyme22 • Dragons flight
 * Gnome-colors-list-remove.svg Zad68

Guideline and policy news
 * The RFC discussion regarding WP:OUTING and WMF essay about paid editing and outing (see more at the ArbCom noticeboard archives) is now archived. Milieus #3 and #4 received support; so did concrete proposal #1.

Technical news
 * Fuzzy search will soon be added to Special:Undelete, allowing administrators to search for deleted page titles with results similar to the search query. You can test this by adding ?fuzzy=1 to the URL, as with Special:Undelete?fuzzy=1. Currently the search only finds pages that exactly match the search term.
 * A new bot will automatically revision delete unused file versions from files in Category:Non-free files with orphaned versions more than 7 days old.

Miscellaneous
 * A newly revamped database report can help identify users who may be eligible to be autopatrolled.
 * A potentially compromised account from 2001–2002 attempted to request resysop. Please practice appropriate account security by using a unique password for Wikipedia, and consider enabling two-factor authentication. Currently around 17% of admins have enabled 2FA, up from 16% in February 2017.
 * Did you know: On 29 June 2017, there were 1,261 administrators on the English Wikipedia – the exact number of administrators as there were ten years ago on 29 June 2007. Since that time, the English Wikipedia has grown from 1.85 million articles to over 5.43 million.

Broken footnote
Hi. Just wanted to let you know that this edit broke the footnote enclosed by the &#123;&#123;efn&#125;&#125; template, as it removed the template's closing brackets. Not sure if it was reFill's fault. If so, you might want to file a bug report. --Paul_012 (talk) 13:53, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I filled in the correct information manually. Lotje (talk) 14:08, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
