### Nominated

- [3 `rust-lang/rust` `T-libs-api` `I-nominated` items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=label:T-libs-api+label:I-nominated+is:open)
  - [[83342](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/83342)] *Allow writing of incomplete UTF\-8 sequences to the Windows console via stdout/stderr*
    FCP finished. Should be merged?
  - [[88302](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/88302)] *What is the stability guarantee of \`#\[track\_caller\]\` locations?*
    - Mara commented.
    - Jane to comment on the issue linked from there.
  - [[88469](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/88469)] *Add links in docs for some primitive types*
    - This seems too much. Linking `true` and `false` etc. is a bit too much. Linking `Copy` etc. can be useful though.
    - Don't link the same thing multiple times from the same paragraph/block/thing/unit.
    - Rustdoc already links argument and return types, so we probably don't need to link it from the doc text.
    - David to provide general philosophy and a few samples of what not to link, and request a rework of the PR along those lines.
