- Following an RfC, a change has been made to the administrators inactivity policy. Under the new policy, if an administrator has not made at least 100 edits over a period of 5 years they may be desysopped for inactivity.
- Following a discussion on the bureaucrat's noticeboard, a change has been made to the bureaucrats inactivity policy.
- The ability to undelete the associated talk page when undeleting a page has been added. This was the 11th wish of the 2021 Community Wishlist Survey.
- A public status system for WMF wikis has been created. It is located at https://www.wikimediastatus.net/ and is hosted separately to WMF wikis so in the case of an outage it will remain viewable.
- Remedy 2 of the St Christopher case has been rescinded following a motion. The remedy previously authorised administrators to place a ban on single-purpose accounts who were disruptively editing on the article St Christopher Iba Mar Diop College of Medicine or related pages from those pages.

Help with COI request
Hi Valereee. I noticed your involvement in WikiProject:Food and drink and hope that you will agree to help me out with my pending edit request on Steve Salis's article. As part of this edit request, I suggest revised language and content to advance the article's clarity, balance, and neutrality. I value your input and appreciate your assistance. Thank you Sheena 2022 (talk) 14:43, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hey, @Sheena 2022! I'm not actually sure the guy's notable. Pretty much all the sources are from the local area, which never is a good thing, and most look like simple basic business coverage typical of any business owner. valereee (talk) 18:23, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
