In WP:PROTECT#Retired users, changed: "Retired users follow the same rule as deceased users." to: "Retired users may have their user pages protected upon request."
In WP:PROTECT#Blocked users, added: [In extreme cases of] "abuse, such as" [abuse of the {{unblock}} template, the talk page may be protected ...]
In WP:Vandalism#Types of vandalism, removed: "Since anonymous user talk pages may be shared by many users, removal of warnings is generally not appropriate."
In WP:ADMIN#Accountability, added: [Administrators are expected to respond promptly and civilly to queries about their] "Wikipedia-related conduct and" [administrator actions and to justify them when needed.]
In WP:PROTECT#Templates, changed: [editors should not automatically add a protection template] "to a template they make, especially in userspace." to: "when working on templates. It is preferable to place the protection template on a template's documentation page (if available), rather than on the template page itself."
In WP:BLOCK#Recording in the block log after username change, removed: [The Checkuser should then add short blocks to the new account to denote each entry in the user's old account log.] "The short blocks should be described as "previous account block log" in the block summary."
Renamed WP:PROTECT#Templates to WP:PROTECT#Available templates. Created a new WP:PROTECT#Templates section: "Templates are like all pages in regard to protection, and are not protected unless there is a special reason to do so. Highly visible templates or templates in use on many pages are usually protected. Protection may be semi-protection or full protection, based on the degree of visibility, use and other factors. In view of this, editors should not automatically add a protection template to a template they make, especially in userspace."
In the introduction, moved one sentence, and removed: "Bans are social constructs, and are not enforced by the MediaWiki software."
In WP:BAN#Community ban, changed "If a user has exhausted the community's patience to the point where an administrator has indefinitely blocked the user and ..." to "If a user has been indefinitely blocked and through community discussion it is determined that ..."
In WP:BAN#Evasion and enforcement, changed "As with enforcement of other Wikipedia policies, no individual editor is obligated to help enforce any ban." to "While all editors are expected to respect the enforcement of policies by not undermining or sabotaging them, no editor is personally obligated to help enforce any ban."
In WP:BAN#Enforcement by reverting edits, removed "Users are generally expected to refrain from reinstating edits made by banned users in violation of the ban, and such edits may be viewed as meatpuppetry."
Made minor changes to WP:BLOCK#Unblocking, and added: [Unblocking will almost never be acceptable: ...] "when the block is explicitly enforcing an active Arbitration remedy and there is not a "clear, substantial, and active community consensus to do so" (Arbcom motion)"
Added to WP:PROTECT#Semi-protection: "... or confirmed." [Such users can request edits to a semi-protected page by proposing them on its talk page, using the {{editsemiprotected}} template if necessary to gain attention.] "They may also request the confirmed userright by visiting Requests for permissions"
In WP:PROTECT#Creation protection, removed "Administrators should avoid using creation protection as a pre-emptive measure, as it is intended to be a response to actual events."
Added to WP:ADMIN#No big deal: "A modern clarification of this statement as of 2009 would be to say that while the correct use of the tools and appropriate conduct is considered very important, being an administrator should not be considered a big deal."
Added subsection, WP:BLOCK#Self-requested blocks: "Sometimes people request that their account be blocked, for example to enforce a wikibreak. Typically, such requests are refused. There is a JavaScript-based "wikibreak enforcer" which may be used instead."
In WP:BOTPOL#Bots with administrative rights, removed: "Adminbots running from their owners' main accounts at the time of this policy's adoption are also covered by the policy. When the policy is adopted, those admins should initiate BRFAs within about two months to move their bots to new accounts. Those adminbots may continue running from their masters' accounts until their BRFAs close."
In WP:PROTECT#Full protection, changed "A fully protected page can be edited only by administrators, who must limit their edits as described below." to "A fully protected page can be edited only by administrators."
