Guideline and policy news
 * Following an RfC, TFAs will be automatically semi-protected the day before it is on the main page and through the day after.
 * A discussion at WP:VPP about revision deletion and oversight for dead names found that [s]ysops can choose to use revdel if, in their view, it's the right tool for this situation, and they need not default to oversight. 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.

Miscellaneous
 * Tech tip: The "Browse history interactively" banner shown at the top of Special:Diff can be used to easily look through a history, assemble composite diffs, or find out what archive something wound up in.

Hi Cobi
Good day, hope you're doing well. I think the Clue bot III is buggy at the moment? or? Take a look at the history of my Archive index User:ClueBot III/Master Detailed Indices/User talk:Vanderwaalforces. Looks messed up. What do you think? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:15, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I updated the template on your page. That should fix it the next time ClueBot III runs in a few hours.  -- Cobi(t&#124;c&#124;b) 06:15, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay Cobi, many thanks! Vanderwaalforces (talk) 06:44, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi Cobi, it doesn't seem to be fixed yet Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:00, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
