There's not much to update, really, because nothing has changed for a very long time.

The problem I am alluding to has existed for years.

The only really major event which might be worth mentioning, is the "regiment project" I've spoken about. The original plan was to replace the articles of thousands of Saibian numbers with a few dozen articles with neatly ordered tables-of-numbers (the "regiments").

It was a wonderful idea. But unfortunately, it was abandoned mid-way. The articles for the first "regiments" are still there, but the rest of the project remained unrealized.

So the bottom line is: Nothing much happened. Very few articles have actually been deleted. Worse: people have added new articles of the precisely the same kind (or worse). We're basically at exactly the same point that we were two or three years ago.
