General Ization is trying to take a short wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia soon. Most likely, however, General Ization will not be able to keep away from Wikipedia for that long, and will probably be back a lot earlier while making some small edits every once in a while anyway. |

Bobbit Tires!!!
That's a LTA, I don't think telling them they're vandalizing with multiple IPs will affect the outcome. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 05:45, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- No, but it also ensures that ClueBot will immediately report them when they trip a filter, versus just warning them. General Ization Talk 05:46, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- Ah, makes sense. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 05:47, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- @General Ization, @LilianaUwU, can we ask for a range block? Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 05:57, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Classicwiki Sure we can, but neither @LilianaUwU nor I have the tools. General Ization Talk 06:00, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- I did ask for the /64 to be blocked, though. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 06:00, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- And ZZuuzz has done. General Ization Talk 06:06, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – May 2024
News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2024).
- Phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship review has concluded. Several proposals have passed outright and will proceed to implementation, including creating a discussion-only period (3b) and administrator elections (13) on a trial basis. Other successful proposals, such as creating a reminder of civility norms (2), will undergo further refinement in Phase II. Proposals passed on a trial basis will be discussed in Phase II, after their trials conclude. Further details on specific proposals can be found in the full report.
- Partial action blocks are now in effect on the English Wikipedia. This means that administrators have the ability to restrict users from certain actions, including uploading files, moving pages and files, creating new pages, and sending thanks. T280531
- The arbitration case Conflict of interest management has been closed.
- This may be a good time to reach out to potential nominees to ask if they would consider an RfA.
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in May 2024 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles in the new pages feed. Currently, there is a backlog of over 15,000 articles awaiting review. Sign up here to participate!
- Voting for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) election is open until 9 May 2024. Read the voting page on Meta-Wiki and cast your vote here!
