Administrators' newsletter – January 2025
News and updates for administrators from the past month (December 2024).
Administrator changes
CheckUser changes
Oversight changes
Guideline and policy news
- Following an RFC, Misplaced Pages:Notability (species) was adopted as a subject-specific notability guideline.
- A request for comment is open to discuss whether admins should be advised to warn users rather than issue no-warning blocks to those who have posted promotional content outside of article space.
Technical news
- The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions.
Arbitration
- Following the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections, the following editors have been elected to the Arbitration Committee: CaptainEek, Daniel, Elli, KrakatoaKatie, Liz, Primefac, ScottishFinnishRadish, Theleekycauldron, Worm That Turned.
Miscellaneous
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in January 2025 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles and redirects in the new pages feed. Sign up here to participate!

Check user
Hi. Can you please check if this user is a potential sock of this indef blocked user. Thanks. DaHuzyBru (talk) 08:25, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- I am not a CheckUser. There is not enough behavior for me to block. And even if I were a CheckUser, the suspected master account is stale.--Bbb23 (talk) 11:26, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- The master account has indef block and TP block – not much more the original account can do, so it's obviously going to go stale. The new account has gone straight to a page that the master account edited heavily, including adding the blank sections that the new account has now "filled". Is it worth me asking a CheckUser? DaHuzyBru (talk) 11:57, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- No, as I said, the master account is stale, so the CU will not be able to compare the data of the suspected sock with the master. You can, if you wish, file a report at WP:SPI, seeking a behavioral block. I don't think there's enough for it, but someone else may feel differently. You might wait to see if they continue to edit.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:01, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

User Ayohama SPI
Hi Bbb23, you recently interacted with user Ayohama on Mark Karpelès and last month blocked user Amber hurt as a sockpuppet on the page. I have opened an SPI against Ayohama, which you may be interested in: Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Lustigermutiger21. I have also requested a checkuser there. – notwally (talk) 21:36, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- Good job.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:14, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

Renewed edit warring
As per our last discussion here, I am updating you that Rueben lys has resumed edit warring and hasn't done anything else after coming off from the block. Abhishek0831996 (talk) 15:43, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
