News from around the site

• As part of the Talk pages project, the reply and new discussion tools have been released as beta features. You can enable them at Special:Preferences.
• This month's maintenance backlog is articles marked as too technical. Please help clarify these pages for non-specialists.
• Longtime medicine editor, administrator, and tech-wiz RexxS has retired – hopefully temporarily – following an arbitration case. Among other things, RexxS has long advocated improving Wikipedia's accessibility for readers with disabilities. You can help in that regard by reminding yourself of the contents of Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility and learning to write alt text for images.

Discussions of interest

• Template:Authority control is getting a redesign. Contribute to the discussion here.
• A large discussion is reconsidering deprecating the aliases for some citation template parameters.
• Please look over edit-protected medicine pages to consider whether some could have protection levels safely lowered.
