Review of pending changes
Currently, at the top of Oberon, is a banner notifying "There are 7 pending changes awaiting review." Administrative authority is required to complete that review; correct? Should I or another person working on Oberon apply for the required status? Wait patiently for an administrator? Thanks, ... PeterEasthope (discuss • contribs) 17:31, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
 * It doesn't require an admin: there are others who can review edits. I've accepted these changes. —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 17:44, 3 September 2019 (UTC)

The consultation on partial and temporary Foundation bans just started
Hello,

In a recent statement, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees requested that staff hold a consultation to "re-evaluat[e] or add community input to the two new office action policy tools (temporary and partial Foundation bans)".

Accordingly, the Foundation's Trust & Safety team invites all Wikimedians to join this consultation and give their feedback from 30 September to 30 October.

How can you help?


 * Suggest how partial and temporary Foundation bans should be used, if they should (eg: On all projects, or only on a subset);


 * Give ideas about how partial and temporary Foundation bans should ideally implemented, if they should be; and/or


 * Propose changes to the existing Office Actions policy on partial and temporary bans.

We offer our thanks in advance for your contributions, and we hope to get as much input as possible from community members during this consultation!

 * The first two wikilinks on your message are broken, because they need an additional  prefix; at least, that's how it misbehaves on this project (and, I see, also on en.wn). --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 18:41, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
