Guideline and policy news

Arbitration

  • Following a motion, the Extended Confirmed Restriction has been amended, removing the allowance for non-extended-confirmed editors to post constructive comments on the "Talk:" namespace. Now, non-extended-confirmed editors may use the "Talk:" namespace solely to make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided that their actions are not disruptive.
  • The Arbitration Committee has announced a call for Checkusers and Oversighters, stating that it will currently be accepting applications for CheckUser and/or Oversight permissions at any point in the year.
  • Eligible users are invited to vote on candidates for the Arbitration Committee until 23:59 December 11, 2023 (UTC). Candidate statements can be seen here.

Adding subscript to chemical formula

Is there a policy that supports this change? I don't see a reason to need to do this. ― Blaze WolfTalkblaze__wolf 22:27, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Blaze Wolf: See Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Superscripts_and_subscripts#Chemistry. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 22:31, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ah I see. That seems to say to use the {{chem2}} template though. Being unfamiliar with these sorts of templates, would this be preferred to the current link? ― Blaze WolfTalkblaze__wolf 23:47, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Blaze Wolf: That would seem to be the preferred (and easier) option. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 00:37, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good! I'll go ahead and change it to that then. ― Blaze WolfTalkblaze__wolf 00:47, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
