Question about WWE roster[edit]
Hello, Lee. How are you? I hoper you're fine. Sorry to disturb you. Looks like we have a few "problem" with the WWE roster and Jacob Fatu. Maybe you can give us your 2 cents. It's an issue we have time to time. Reliable sources report a wrestler signing with WWE, but people remove it since WWE didn't comfirm the contact, which I think is a conflict between a non independent company and independent sources.

- Hi! Have you got a link to the discussion so I can take a look? Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:00, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, I found the discussion. Best to have discussion in one location. Quick reminder that Edit Warring goes both ways. Even if the info is sourced, WP:BRD should be the way to solve it. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:32, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Hey[edit]
Just a quick note to say hello. Lovely to see how you've made Wikipedia your own place! If you have any article reviews for WikiCup or similar, let me know, I have a bit of spare time, not masses, but more than happy to get stuck in with the people I trust. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 22:40, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi! Great to see you about. My time has been limited, so my dirge of content you've seen in the past just isn't there. I do have an FAC 2023 World Snooker Championship if you do get a little bit of a chance.
- I'm just in the cup for fun this year, I don't have the inclination to go after it! I hope you are enjoying life. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 09:02, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – May 2024[edit]
News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2024).
Guideline and policy news
- Phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship review has concluded. Several proposals have passed outright and will proceed to implementation, including creating a discussion-only period (3b) and administrator elections (13) on a trial basis. Other successful proposals, such as creating a reminder of civility norms (2), will undergo further refinement in Phase II. Proposals passed on a trial basis will be discussed in Phase II, after their trials conclude. Further details on specific proposals can be found in the full report.
Technical news

Arbitration
- The arbitration case Conflict of interest management has been closed.
Miscellaneous
- This may be a good time to reach out to potential nominees to ask if they would consider an RfA.
