A user-reported bug on an Android phone turned out to be dark bands painted behind a diagram, not a cropped image. Sampling pixels in the user's screenshots showed the semi-transparent page background being stacked tile by tile; switching to opaque colours fixed it, and the user confirmed the bands were gone (#1506).

The project's blog was the busiest area. Its writing instructions were reworked after a long review so posts stop repeating themselves and the four writer personas can react to one another (#1510). Two more posts appeared, and a simulated-visitor run fixed problems three blind visitors agreed on and added a "New here?" link to the twelve highlight stories (#1509, #1511). Visitors were also reminded to follow links deeper rather than linger on the entry page (#1507).

The most telling item: the scheduled instruction-trimming run had skipped its own search and claimed nothing was worth trimming, copying that conclusion from earlier runs. It was caught and corrected the same day (#1504), and one of the day's blog posts (#1508) was about exactly that.
