ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message

Hello! Voting in the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 2 December 2024. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2024 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:45, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Guideline and policy news

Following an RFC, the policy on restoration of adminship has been updated. All former administrators may now only regain the tools following a request at the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard within 5 years of their most recent admin action. Previously this applied only to administrators deysopped for inactivity.
Following a request for comment, a new speedy deletion criterion, T5, has been enacted. This applies to template subpages that are no longer used.

Technical news

Technical volunteers can now register for the 2025 Wikimedia Hackathon, which will take place in Istanbul, Turkey. Application for travel and accommodation scholarships is open from November 12 to December 10, 2024.

Arbitration

The arbitration case Yasuke (formerly titled Backlash to diversity and inclusion) has been closed.
An arbitration case titled Palestine-Israel articles 5 has been opened. Evidence submissions in this case will close on 14 December.

This is more easily searchable and is faster for the software to use than the existing [[MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist|MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist]]. It does not support regex (for complex cases), URL path-matching, or the [[MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist|MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist]]. ({{phab|T337431}})

-They are spheres after all, you don't agree ?
-Unesco does. We all pay for that. [[Special:Contributions/2A02:A03F:E7FE:2C00:85AB:DFC0:8C39:6FF8|2A02:A03F:E7FE:2C00:85AB:DFC0:8C39:6FF8]] ([[User talk:2A02:A03F:E7FE:2C00:85AB:DFC0:8C39:6FF8|talk]]) 20:01, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
-:The fact that they are spheres is in the article title ([[Stone spheres of Costa Rica]]). It's useless to re-include that information again. [[UNESCO]] is already mentioned in the article lede.
