:Updating these templates is regarded as a substantive edit. As to the talk page size I can make a temporary adjustment, if it's causing you difficulties.

** EntitySchemas: We are getting back to making architecture improvements to enable the new datatype to link to EntitySchemas in statements.

** IP masking: We wrapped up the work on adapting Wikibase for the upcoming IP masking changes.

** Query Service: We added the ability to stop a query in the UI in order to not have to wait for a broken query to finish or run into a time-out. You can find the stop button below the run button in the query UI now.
