4. 经社群讨论，方针与指引中某数字“以上”、“以下”等词之使用已悉数消除，受影响之页面及其具体修订如下：《可靠来源指引（医学）》、《可靠来源指引》、《命名常规（电子游戏）》、《命名常规（音乐）》（一、二）、《小小作品指引》、《新闻动态指引（重复发生的项目）》、《格式手册（作品列表）》、《档案移动员方针》、《权限申请指引》、《消歧义指引》、《管理员的离任方针》、《自传方针》、《著作权信息方针》、《重定向指引》、《关注度指引（几何图形）》、《关注度指引（书籍）》、《关闭存废讨论指引》、《页面分类指引》、《共识方针》、《格式手册（列表）》、《机器人方针》、《申请成为管理人员指引》、《关注度指引（运动员）》、《关注度指引（音乐）》、《关注度指引（数字）》、《关注度指引（组织）》、《回退功能方针》、《新页面巡查方针》、《用户页指引》、《非自由版权图片大小指引》、《关注度指引（地理特征）》及《格式手册（旗帜）》。（讨论纪录）
