Personal tags are visible for items in courses that a user is no longer enrolled in
Be sure to address the question if there is any need to preserve tags if the site does not allow authorization to a course and the user can find the item is accessible via searches.

The calendar widget in the Ares webpages uses deprecated javascript functions.
The Xin Calendar 2 (xc2*.js files) widget makes calls to document.routeEvent() in two places. This function has been deprecated for a while now and was recently removed from Firefox altogether. Even so, the calendar still seems to be working correctly, aside from the errors that are raised in the javascript console.

A course's semester is read-only in the web but is displayed in a dropdown that indicates it can be changed.
I think that not allowing instructors to change a course's semester makes sense, and the issue seems to be the misleading appearance of editability.

The Item.LoanPeriodDescription tag is not properly replaced when generating emails.
The Customization Manager includes an email tag for LoanPeriodDescription in the Items table. This is not an actual field in the items table and is not replaced properly when emails are being generated in the client. Instead the tag is replaced with "Item.LoanPeriodDescription", i.e. the tag syntax of the brackets and # sign are removed.

The <#ITEM field='BuildURL'> tag used to return an empty string if the field was irrelevant to that item.
The <#ITEM field='BuildURL'> tag used to return an empty string if the field was irrelevant to that item, but this led to blank spaces with back to back pipes.
The <#ITEM field='BuildURL'> tag always returns link text now, which may alter some pages that relied on it returning an empty string when the item's link URL was not relevant.1 votereleased ·AdminDustin Stokes

The Ares installer may incorrectly try to add existing document types on update.
Repro Steps
When adding the document types for mp4, docx, pptx, and xlsx in the update script, it is incorrectly checking for existing records with the same DocumentTypeName and Extension. Since only the DocumentTypeName is a primary key field, an existing record with the same DocumentTypeName but different extension will result in a primary key violation. This has come up with the New School, which had already added an mp4 document type.1 votereleased ·AdminDustin Stokes

Empty ListItemID values give an error in the flagged requests list
Repro Steps
1. Click on a list of Flagged Requests.
2. Any empty ListItemIDs are tripping the InvalidCastException catchWe can fix the problem by changing the if rowCellValue != null to if rowCellValue as(T) != null, so that the casting happens before we attempt to add it to the list.
