* '''Infobox ~~personal~~ fields trimmed''' — Soldier infoboxes no longer show Education, Spouse/marital, Occupation, or ~~State~~ (~~usually~~ NARA ~~enlistment~~ snapshots~~). Those~~ stay in the Technical record~~; curated life details belong in Biography and Timeline~~.

* '''Infobox fields trimmed + Other class expanded''' — Soldier infoboxes no longer show Education, Spouse/marital, Occupation, State, Certificate, Arrived/Departed, or Years of service (NARA/roster snapshots stay in the Technical record). Roster '''Other class''' codes expand to readable names (e.g. SC8 → Special Course 8, DC36 → Division Class 36, MITU4 → Mobile Intelligence Training Unit 4).

* '''Aviary interview embeds''' — [[Ritchie Boy Interviews]] can play Milken Archive / Aviary oral histories with click-to-play embeds (first: Hugo D. Weisgall).

* '''Site link preview image''' — Homepage Open Graph / chat previews use the Ritchie Boys Wiki logo (same as the top-left site mark) instead of the MediaWiki “powered by” footer graphic.
