Guideline and policy news

• 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.

Technical news

• 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

Arbitration

• The arbitration case Conflict of interest management has been closed.

Miscellaneous

• 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!

Ferrari

It is true that Ferrari still enters as Scuderia Ferrari. Scuderia Ferrari HP was expected to be the new name ahead of Miami. Nothing as changed. In Monaco they are entered as Scuderia Ferrari HP (see Monaco media kit page 32). The point is if the season entry list is not updated also the single entry list GP they still says Scuderia Ferrari. Island92 (talk) 13:08, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• @Island92: Regardless of what Ferrari's press kit states, they are entered as Scuderia Ferrari and nothing more. You are welcome to consult the entry lists, where you will notice an obvious absence of any "HP" suffix. 5225_C (talk • contributions) 13:53, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I know that because the season-entry list was last updated on 3 April (this is where the mistake is). The new agreement with HP was set on 24 April. Had FIA updated the season-entry list before, Ferrari would have entered as Scuderia Ferrari HP since Miami (as expected and how things should have been). Island92 (talk) 17:08, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • All of that is irrelevant. The only source for an entrant's name is the entry list. HP was never added to the entrant's name and it was always incorrect to make that change. 5225_C (talk • contributions) 07:50, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi 5225C. Thank you for your work on The Nightly. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

A contentious recent digital newspaper with significant coverage in reliable sources over several months. The page is clearly constructed and well-written.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Klbrain}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)
