Hi. I'm not sure if this is a bug that I should report, but on my Watchlist page, there's a message that reads "A request for adminship is open for discussion. [dismiss]". I first noticed it a while back and just ignored it. Yesterday I looked into it and, as far as I can tell, I've never been nominated for adminship. Also, there is no link to a nomination in the message.
If it helps, in the page's HTML, it's in <div class="mw-specialpage-summary">, <ul id="watchlist-message" [. . .]>, here <li class="watchlist-message cookie-ID_517">A <span style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship" title="Wikipedia:Requests for adminship">request for adminship</a></span> is open for discussion.<span> [<a class="dismissButton" href="#" title="Hide this message">dismiss</a>]</span></li>
Thanks in advance. Fcy (talk) 16:28, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
:It's not a bug; whenever there is an open Request for adminship that notice is put at the top of everyone's watchlist so that if they are interested they can participate. At the moment {{noping|Colin M}} is running for adminship, and his RFA is transcluded at the main RFA page. If you want more help, change the {{t|help me-helped}} back into a {{t|help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.
