+=========================================================================
+Deprecation: #84463 - PageTsConfig option mod.web_list.newWizards dropped
+=========================================================================
+
+See :issue:`84463`
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The widely unknown PageTsConfig option :ts:`mod.web_list.newWizards` has
+been enabled by default and dropped.
+
+PHP property :php:`newWizards` of class :php:`TYPO3\CMS\Recordlist\RecordList\DatabaseRecordList`
+has been deprecated along the way.
+
+
+Impact
+======
+
+The "+" sign in the list module of `pages` table now by default links to the wizard
+to select the new page position.
+
+The "+" sign in the list module of `tt_content` table now by default links to the
+new content element wizard in a modal.
+
+
+Affected Installations
+======================
+
+Most installations should not be affected by the code change, the extension scanner
+will find extensions using the mentioned class property.
+
+
+Migration
+=========
+
+Do not use property :php:`newWizards` anymore, drop the PageTsConfig option if used.
