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.

But oversight could well be right where there's a particularly high risk to the person. Use your judgment.

Technical news
 * Special:Contributions now shows the user's local edit count and the account's creation date.

Arbitration
 * The SmallCat dispute case has closed. As part of the final decision, editors participating in XfD have been reminded to be careful about forming local consensus which may or may not reflect the broader community consensus. Regular closers of XfD forums were also encouraged to note when broader community discussion, or changes to policies and guidelines, would be helpful.

Dear Nancy, I'm looking for someone who could make a note on Wikipedia about me. I'm an artist and I got the information that I should get in Touch with one of the administrators.
I'm basically working in Film on both sides. Here is the information about me. The link to IMdB is https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0918297/ Best Stefan

Stefan Weinert (born 26 April 1964) is a German actor, director, writer, and producer. He is best known for his performances in the Spanish films The Photographer of Mauthausen (2018), The Chessplayer (2017), the Netflix series’ Jaguar (2021-) and the Brazilian series Passport to Freedom.

He has won the Cinema for Peace Award for his documentary The Family (2014).

Career

Weinert launched his career in 1986 when he took on a leading role in the play Tchaikovsky. After numerous successful theater productions, he decided to shift his focus.

In 1991, he graduated as a master student of Axel Manthey and Klaus Zehelein from the renowned University of Applied Arts in Vienna, where he studied stage and film design and received a Magister Artium degree.

Weinert moved to Barcelona in 1991 and worked as an art director and set designer, including at opera houses such as the Vienna State Opera and the Cologne City Opera.

In 1995, he appeared in front of the camera for the first time in Manuel Poll's film Pan in Barcelona, where he discovered his passion for film. After brief intermissions and camera acting classes in New York, Geneva, and Vienna, he moved back to Germany in 1997, where he worked as a film actor.

In 2001, he appeared in his first international film, The Musketeer, alongside Catherine Deneuve and Tim Roth. In 2004, he co-starred with Patrick Swayze, Michael Clarke Duncan, and Val Kilmer in George and the Dragon, and in 2006 he was in a supporting role alongside Tom Hardy and Rutger Hauer.

In 2017, he made his debut as the antagonist Colonel Maier in the Spanish film The Chessplayer. 2018, he played the Mauthausen commander in the film The Photographer of Mauthausen with Mario Casas.

In 2021, he played the role of Otto Bachmann, a character based on a true figure, known as the most dangerous man in Europe, who is hunted by survivors of the Mauthausen concentration camp, Blanca Suarez, Oscar Casas, in the Spanish Netflix series Jaguar. This was followed by the Brazilian series Passport to Freedom, based on the true story of Aracy de Carvalho who helped Jews obtain visas to flee to Brazil, alongside Sophie Charlotte and Rodrigo Lombardi.

In 2023, Weinert took on the role of the antagonist Friedrich Schneider in the Spanish TV production Operation Barrio Ingles.

In addition to his acting work, he has been working as a director and producer of short films and documentaries, representing the Federal Republic of Germany at international film festivals.

On February 8, 2009, his first 90-minute documentary Face the Wall (Gesicht zur Wand) premiered at the Volksbühne Berlin, with Weinert being responsible for the script, production, and direction.

Gesicht zur Wand was awarded the "highly recommended" predicate and "Documentary of the Month" by the Wiesbaden Film Evaluation Center on October 9, 2009.

On August 23, 2013, his second cinema documentary The Family (Die Familie) premiered at the Festival des Films du Monde in Montreal, with Weinert once again responsible for the script, production, and direction. The film was awarded the "highly recommended " predicate and "Documentary of the Month" by the Wiesbaden Film Evaluation Center on July 31, 2013.

In 2021, his documentary Lost children (Verlorene Kinder) about forced adoptions in the former GDR premiered on RBB German television.

I recently edited the living persons biography wiki entry for Michael Frese, psychologist and academic. I receive a message that the entry had been deleted, and that I can request for it here to use as a draft for the updated entry to be reviewed by an editor. I'm not sure what you need from me to get me access to the deleted entry, but I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks BanthoMotlapele (talk) 10:21, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

Dear Nancy,

I hope this message finds you well. I am getting in touch because a page I drafted has not been approved and is now deleted, and I was asked to get in touch with a moderator (provided in a list) from whom I could get a copy of the content back. I will be super grateful if you could please return my draft back to my user page? The draft was called "Oscar Alejandro Pérez-Escobar".

You did not delete our page listed as Janimation. However, I was told you could assist with helping get it restored if we follow the right criteria.We have the articles for deletion/Janimation but I'm not sure how to proceed next. The Janimation page was up for a decade before it was taken down so it was a little surprising and we were not sure what we had done wrong after so long. JaniOctopus (talk) 16:12, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello Nancy, my contribution got deleted because Jimfbleak, my contribution reviewer, said I wrote about it in a neutral and objective way. Can you get it back to draft so I can give it an update? Thank you. Gniquyij (talk) 10:46, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
