You say "Because staff get to bypass what has been implemented on pages at any time without making any changes to inform the community."

But you also say "Despite Special:Community saying otherwise. This kind of confusion needs to stop and very quickly." What has been implemented on pages such as Special:Community is to be followed unless the changes are to be made public or otherwise goes through a vote to see if it requires community approval. Otherwise, it just makes the rule pages out of date and confusing to people who don't have inside knowledge. That is what I meant. "lol ok the community discord is a great place to communicate."

If it requires people to be on Discord, then that is terrible. Everyone working on the wiki deserves to know, not the people who are on the Discord.

"Lenhi made the edit just because people like you aren't listening."

Where could I see on the wiki that I had to not add interlanguage links to the gallery? If it was decided just on the Discord, then that is terrible, as I said above. Some people cannot access Discord right now, either due to it being a blocked site or other constraints (like me at school). Some people don't have Discord at all. That practice needs to stop and turn to something like Lenhi's edit where the entire wiki community can know.

This cannot be argued. It is common sense to inform your community of any changes. If websites decide to change their terms of service, they inform you to read it again. Websites tell you to read their terms of use frequently in case there are any changes.

It was wrong not to inform on a more broad scale. Closing the thread now as it cannot be argued.
