    • Tweaked definitions of G1, G6, G8, A7, A9, I9, and U1, and deprecated T1.
    • Changed "Articles that seem to have obviously non-notable subjects are only eligible for speedy deletion if the article does not assert the importance or significance of its subject." to "Articles that seem to have obviously non-notable subjects are eligible for speedy deletion only if the article does not give a reasonable indication of why the subject might be important or significant."



  • Wikipedia:Oversight
    • Updated list of oversighters
    • Added "This includes hiding revisions made by editors who were accidentally logged out and thus inadvertently revealed their own IP addresses."
