nb4 "do it yourself, noob": no. I will absolutely break everything with a catastrophic typo if I touch this page directly. -- asilvering (talk) 00:27, 27 September 2024 (UTC)

Administrator elections
editHello friends. Just a quick note to let you know that I plan to post three watchlist notices related to admin elections:
- Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Watchlist messages/Call for candidates - Oct
68–14 - Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Watchlist messages/Discussion phase - Oct 22–24
- Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Watchlist messages/Voting phase - Oct 25–31
If there's any concerns about the wording, quantity of messages, duration, etc. please let us know soon so we can make adjustments. Thanks! –Novem Linguae (talk) 01:32, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Are you are already a day late with the first message? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:01, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- I think that may have been a typo, as on pages such as WP:AELECT and the MMS variation for calling for candidates it's Oct 8, not Oct 6. —Sirdog (talk) 08:10, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yeap, was a typo. Fixed now. –Novem Linguae (talk) 15:40, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

- Surely the
untilparameter in {{Display/watchlist}} needs to be one day later, as these deadlines include the end date. For example, the nominations notice is already gone from my watchlist, although the period only ends at midnight UTC. -- Maddy from Celeste (WAVEDASH) 12:43, 14 October 2024 (UTC)- Done — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:20, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
Just to note that I have prepared the next message, which will display from 22 October — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:34, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
