If I recall correctly, at the previous occasion of this January, the
global sitenotice which had come in English at that time didn't affect
the wiki which has locally used their own sitenotice at that time (Now
I'm thinking jawikinews). Is my remembrance wrong? Or there will be no
similar conflict any more?

Some projects including En Wikinews or Ja, continue to utilise
sitenotice less or more one year, but on both projects I haven't heard
a major dispute about that. (They  serve visitors only a few of links
to some pages and not so heavily remarkable).
