Arbitration

  • After a motion, arbitration enforcement page protections no longer need to be logged in the AELOG. A bot now automatically posts protections at WP:AELOG/P. To facilitate this bot, protection summaries must include a link to the relevant CT page (e.g. [[WP:CT/BLP]]), and you will receive talk page reminders if you forget to specify the contentious topic but otherwise indicate it is an AE action.

Ce mois-ci, on regarde derrière l’enduit du Wiktionnaire pour comprendre ce qui s’y passe ! Aux côtés des brèves, des statistiques produites par Unsui et des retours sur les activités du mois écoulés, trois articles : les définitions de l’autisme dans les dictionnaires, par Tsaag Valren ; un dictionnaire visuel par Noé ; mission descriptive et responsabilité prescriptive par Lepticed7.

    is adequately sourced. There should be no less than three independent reliable sources for each
    biography, including at least one source for each paragraph.

Progress ("moving the needle"):

  • Statistics available via various tools: previously, Humaniki tool; currently, QLever. Thank you if
    you contributed one or more of the 20,473 articles created in the past year.
  • 21 Oct 2024, 19.963% of biographies on EN-WP were about women (2,030,245 biographies; 405,305 women)
  • 28 Oct 2025: 20.23% of biographies on EN-WP were about women (2,094,677 biographies; 423,778 women)
