Guideline and policy news
- Following an RfC, administrator elections were permanently authorized on a five-month schedule. The next election will be scheduled soon; see Wikipedia talk:Administrator elections for more information. This is an alternate process to the RfA process and does not replace the latter.
- An RfC was closed with consensus to allow editors to opt-out of seeing "sticky decorative elements". Such elements should now be wrapped in {{sticky decoration wrapper}}. Editors who wish to opt out can follow the instructions at WP:STICKYDECO.
- An RfC has resulted in a broad prohibition on the use of AI-generated images in articles. A few common-sense exceptions are recognized.
Miscellaneous

Hello! I've been using AntiVandal a lot recently and I love it. I wrote a user script which adds a dark mode. After using it for a while myself, I've gotten around to writing a documentation page for it, and I refer to it as a "plugin for AntiVandal" because I wasn't sure how else to describe it. Is that OK, or should I reword it or delete it altogether? This my first user script and I don't know the etiquette. — tony talk 16:23, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
