Quick notes:

• https://wordpress.org/support/article/reusable-blocks/#edit-reusable-block : need review, not sure this is still working on the same way on 6.0 rc2
• https://wordpress.org/support/article/reusable-blocks/#remove-a-reusable-block : I didn't manage to reproduce this on 6.0 rc2

I generate new gifs for the article and saved it for being published on May 31th:

I am not sure what the 2 updates for 6.0 means. Is it new features that need to be added to the documentation or action to remove from actual screenshots?

FYI it's easy to replace the videos, just look at the files names. :)

Adding tasks for 6.1

1. We are not adding updates for the Block settings as we are revamping the block settings for all the block articles.
2. Pls make 6.1 updates first and then move into 6.0.
3. Some of the PRs for 6.1 have great videos that can be added to the article (even for the Block settings section)
4. For 6.0, you can pick the screenshots/videos added in the comments.

For the template part of this ticket, shall I work on this ticket separately: #291 ?

Hi @femkreations

It seems Alvaro Gómez already worked on this and added the 6.3 changes. Do I still need to update this one?
