- A recommendation to modify the third pillar to include the word "read" was brought up. Also brought up was a request to add the statement that "Readers and editors are welcome, regardless of ethnicity, creed, gender, age, sexuality or disability.

- Noreferrer
- Should noreferrer be enabled for all external links on Wikipedia?
