Hi DatGuy. Would it be possible for DatBot to archive AIV requests if the user has been globally blocked or locked? Thanks.

I'd rather Mdann52 adds it to User:HBC AIV helperbot14. Matt: you can use list=globalallusers via enwiki or list=logevents&leaction=globalauth/setstatus via metawiki for accounts and list=globalblocks for IPs.

noted - I'm already hopefully checking for locks, will try a few things to work out why things are slipping through when I get a few hours!

Following an RFC, the policy on restoration of adminship has been updated. All former administrators may now only regain the tools following a request at the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard within 5 years of their most recent admin action. Previously this applied only to administrators deysopped for inactivity.
Following a request for comment, a new speedy deletion criterion, T5, has been enacted. This applies to template subpages that are no longer used.
