 # ## Changelog
 #
+# 2024-08-18
+# - `check_logical()` and `check_character()` gain `allow_empty` to disallow
+#    `logical(0)` and `character(0)` respectively.
+#
+# - `check_logical()` gain `allow_na` to disallow NA values.
+#
 # 2024-08-15:
 # - `check_character()` gains an `allow_na` argument (@martaalcalde, #1724)
