Assorted policies

Hello all. Over the last couple of weeks I have tried to clarify and expand on the following policies. One of my aims is to have policy pages separate from requests pages. Please feel free to comment and vote on them. If there are no significant objections over the next four weeks, I propose the policy changes should become official. If there are any objections afterwards, we can always discuss things then.

• Wikinews talk:Bots/Policy - separated from WN:Bots.
• Wikinews talk:CheckUser policy - based on the global policy.
• Wikinews talk:Requests for permissions/Policy - separated from WN:RFP.

The following policy has proposed changes to the policy.

• Wikinews talk:Permission expiry policy - renamed from "privilege expiry policy" for consistency with WN:RFP, WN:FRRFP and m:SRP.

If you have any questions, please ask on the relevant talk page. [₂₄Cr][talk] 11:42, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
