Following consensus at the 2021 RfA review, the autopatrolled user right has been removed from the administrators user group; admins can grant themselves the autopatrolled permission if they wish to remain autopatrolled.
The functionaries email list (functionaries-enlists.wikimedia.org) will no longer accept incoming emails apart from those sent by list members and WMF staff. Private concerns, apart from those requiring oversight, should be directly sent to the Arbitration Committee.
Saw the minus and wondered whether you'd dropped out. See you've given the bit back. Know you are loved, brother. Back in the day, your energy, industry and integrity was important not only for its own sake but for the high standard you set for those of us around you. I'm certain there are lots of accomplished and wonderful wikipedians who don't even know your name. Your work, however, is enduring. That's the highest compliment I pay a wikipedian. Your edits endure. BusterD (talk) 11:08, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for your service to the project. It is immensely appreciated. If you need/want any user rights, feel free to ping any time as you are definitely qualified. --TheSandDoctorTalk 16:58, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
I have nominated Battle of Ceresole for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. Z1720 (talk) 16:56, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Correction to previous election announcement
Just a quick correction to the prior message about the 2022 MILHIST coordinator election! I (Hog Farm) didn't proofread the message well enough and left out a link to the election page itself in this message. The voting will occur here; sorry about the need for a second message and the inadvertent omission from the prior one. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 17:41, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.
