 ### Fixed
 - Improved efficiency of saving bounding box related changes. [#8492](https://github.com/scalableminds/webknossos/pull/8492)
 - When deleting a dataset, its caches are cleared, so that if a new dataset by the same name is uploaded afterwards, only new data is loaded. [#8638](https://github.com/scalableminds/webknossos/pull/8638)
+- Fixed a race condition when starting proofreading with a split action. [#8676](https://github.com/scalableminds/webknossos/pull/8676)
+- Fixed that activating a mapping got stuck when a dataset was opened in "view" mode. [#8687](https://github.com/scalableminds/webknossos/pull/8687)
