Non admins on Arbcom
The story should have said non-admin ArbCom Members, despite the signpost no one is suggesting that we should dish out admin rights to all and any ArbCom candidates. Though that could flush out dozens more candidates and it would certainly solve the longterm decline in admin numbers if anyone who ran for arbcom automatically made admin.

MEDRS
The proposal to expand MEDRS to cover anything health related seems to have failed, but a related discussion is ongoing at Wikipedia talk:Identifying reliable sources (medicine)#Unsourced factual claims OK on policy pages?. -- Guy Macon ( talk) 02:57, 23 November 2015 (UTC) reply
