• Jclemens was not new to the committee in 2012, having been elected in 2011. --Alexandr Dmitri (talk) 12:40, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

• I've given up on RfA reform. If you look at the very first version of the RfA page you will see that the process is basically unchanged from 2003, despite the squillions of words and hours devoted to its reform. Short of the Esperanza solution, RfA reform is not going to happen, so we really need to work with what we've got. --Surturz (talk) 23:19, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

  Deleting RfA might not be the worst idea ever. ;-) Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 20:56, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

• Neither MonmouthpediA nor GibraltarpediA usually are, or should be, seen as GLAM (Galleries, libraries archives and museums, remember) activities, though they expanded techniques developed in earlier GLAM activities, but applied them to everything in a particular location. "Wikitowns" is sometimes used for them. This should be rephrased. Johnbod (talk) 13:07, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
• I wonder how this report failed to mention the June launch of IPv6, which was quite a news-maker.--Jasper Deng (talk) 03:51, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
