File:Green check.svg Guideline and policy news

• Following an RfC, administrator elections were permanently authorized on a five-month schedule. The next election will be scheduled soon; see Wikipedia talk:Administrator elections for more information. This is an alternate process to the RfA process and does not replace the latter.
• An RfC was closed with consensus to allow editors to opt-out of seeing "sticky decorative elements". Such elements should now be wrapped in {{t|sticky decoration wrapper}}. Editors who wish to opt out can follow the instructions at WP:STICKYDECO.
• An RfC has resulted in a broad prohibition on the use of AI-generated images in articles. A few common-sense exceptions are recognized.

A food pyramid is a visual tool that illustrates the optimal proportions of different food groups you should eat daily for a healthy diet. It's a pyramid shape, with the base representing foods you should consume in larger amounts and the top representing those to consume in smaller amounts. The pyramid helps individuals understand how to achieve a balanced diet by consuming a variety of foods from each food group Meeraya (talk) 10:00, 16 May 2025 (UTC)
