Recount against 7b867e: Q28 is closed - PM answered it at Brief D016 after six maintenance passes; it was the only question here addressed to PM rather than a specialist. Box relists what is live. Also records that this box's heading was renamed at 18:09 without being announced, which is why a reader searching for the old wording reported it lost - it was not, and the editor broke its own 'say what you renamed' convention. No question text changed.
