*Recent proposals which have passed include the following:
**Discussion of regional differences on articles has been more standardized, in particular prioritizing American English and discouraging British English quotes when they are very similar.
**Where boss moves are discussed has been standardized to only appear on the page of that boss, not the pages of stages where it appears.
**A new mantra has been added, reminding editors that they shouldn't focus on trying to make edits that merely reword sentences or change their grammatical structure if what was there previously is already correct. More information can be found [[WiKirby:Writing_specifics#List_of_mantras|here]].
