Noting (as I mentioned in the linked BOTREQ) that this keeps getting brought up in various venues, and no one has seen reason to object or otherwise indicate that this text should be kept. Primefac (talk) 16:41, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Approved for trial (50 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete.. Seems to be an uncontroversial changer per the linked discussion. – SD0001 (talk) 06:05, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Trial complete. Edits. 51 for some reason (AD 14 still shows up in the list of pages to edit, but also in the contribs). Primefac (talk) 13:37, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
