Welcome to Phase 2 of the January–February 2026 NPP drive. During Phase 1, we reviewed 16,658 articles and 4,416 redirects, and there is currently a backlog of 16,475 articles and 23,782 redirects in the queue. Fantastic job! Completing 22,502 patrols in the first phase made a significant dent in the backlog. Let's keep our foot on the gas for Phase 2, and I hope we can achieve even more reviews than Phase 1. Best of luck!

News and updates for administrators from the past month (January 2026).

Arbitration

• Due to the result of a recent motion, a rough consensus of administrators at the arbitration enforcement noticeboard may impose an expanded topic ban on Israel, Israelis, Jews, Judaism, Palestine, Palestinians, Islam, and/or Arabs, if an editor's Arab-Israeli conflict topic ban is determined to be insufficient to prevent disruption. At least one diff per area expanded into should be cited.

Miscellaneous

• Voting in the 2026 Steward elections started on 06 February 2026 at 14:00 (UTC) and will end on 27 February 2026 at 14:00 (UTC). The confirmation process for current stewards is being held in parallel. You can automatically check your eligibility to vote.

I am making this revision again: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=David_A._Dodge&action=history

Here is a LinkedIn post from a Bennett Jones employee talking about Dodge's retirement: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sergepdupont_it-was-terrific-to-get-together-with-a-group-activity-7399954409419390976-Zo4u#:~:text=David%20Dodge%2C%20to%20pay%20tribute%20to%20him%20after%20his%20retirement%20from%20Bennett%20Jones&text=David%20retired%20from%20Bennett%20Jones%20after%2016%20years%20with%20the

Here is another independent source that refers to "Mr. Dodge is recently retired as a Senior Advisor at Bennett Jones LLP one of Canada’s leading law firms." https://cdhowe.org/our-people/david-dodge/ In addition, Dodge no longer has a bio on the Bennett Jones firm website. You can do a search on their website to verify this. His bio can no longer be found there.

I believe these sources are enough information to prove that he is no longer employed at the firm, and so this information should be mentioned on his wikipedia page Turner.john60 (talk) 17:58, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Turner.john60, Thanks for bringing it. Generally LINKEDIN is not considered as a reliable source. But second source that is mentioned above is fine to add those information on his wikipedia article. Thank You! Fade258 (talk) 02:24, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
