Would you mind doing the honors? -  Neutralhomer •  Talk  • 15:16 on November 17, 2019 (UTC)
 * Welcome Back! I'll be honest, you had me a little worried, thought you finally got sick of the place and I would have had to do your job! :)  Seriously though, I do hope all is well.  Anywho, glad you are back and a belated US Happy Thanksgiving! :) -  Neutralhomer  •  Talk  • 19:04 on December 1, 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry, man. I've been very low active – some stuff going on in life has been taking precedence. Suspect it'll be pretty similar through until the New Year. Glad someone else picked it up – I had it on a lengthy list of stuff that I intended to handle. Hope you had a good holiday – mine was back in October! :>) Mlaffs (talk) 22:07, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I figured it was real life stuff, so no worries there. I hope all is well. :)  Yeah, I always try to wish my Canadian friends "Happy Thanksgiving" twice.  Once in October and once in November, just to cover the bases. :) -  Neutralhomer  •  Talk  • 02:00 on December 6, 2019 (UTC)

Guideline and policy news
 * An RfC on the administrator resysop criteria was closed. 18 proposals have been summarised with a variety of supported and opposed statements. The inactivity grace period within which a new request for adminship is not required has been reduced from three years to two. Additionally, Bureaucrats are permitted to use their discretion when returning administrator rights.
 * Following a proposal, the edit filter mailing list has been opened up to users with the Edit Filter Helper right.

Technical news
 * Wikimedia projects can set a default block length for users via MediaWiki:ipb-default-expiry. A new page, MediaWiki:ipb-default-expiry-ip, allows the setting of a different default block length for IP editors. Neither is currently used. (T219126)

Miscellaneous
 * The global consultation on partial and temporary office actions that ended in October received a closing statement from staff concluding, among other things, that the WMF will no longer use partial or temporary Office Action bans... until and unless community consensus that they are of value or Board directive.
