== New pages patrol September 2024 Backlog drive ==
I had no idea that an official plot synopsis could be a copy vio. Maybe I should've sourced it elsewhere? Same content, but different source. Could ''[[BRZRKR: Poetry of Madness]]'' really be considered that? [[User:ToNeverFindTheMets|ToNeverFindTheMets]] ([[User talk:ToNeverFindTheMets|talk]]) 21:44, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
:{{re|ToNeverFindTheMets}} So, the problem is that you're not supposed to copy text from anywhere on the internet unless it's in the public domain or under a free license. (And if it is one of those two things, you should still attribute it to the original source). In the future, you should try to describe the synopsis or plot in your own words.

::Yeah, fyi. ''[[BRZRKR: Fallen Empire]]'' has this problem too, i appended the text, and sourced the IGN dude's description so that's still a problem.

* On 1 September 2024, a one-month backlog drive for new pages patrol will begin.
== Copy editing on Draft:Saho-Hime ==
* Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled.

* Barnstars will also be granted for re-reviewing articles previously reviewed by other patrollers during the drive.
hiya! From what I've gathered Copy editing is basically checking grammar. I will do that! Also the page needs to be moved from [[Draft:Saho-Hime]] to Saho-hime when in mainspace. Thanks! [[User:Camillz|Camillz]] ([[User talk:Camillz|talk]]) 16:07, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
* Each article review will earn 1 point, and each redirect review will earn 0.2 points.
:{{re|Camillz}} yes, the page basically just needs some improvements to grammar and formatting so it's easier to understand. Once that's done, the page will be reviewed more quickly. [[User:BuySomeApples|BuySomeApples]] ([[User talk:BuySomeApples#top|talk]]) 16:09, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
* Interested in taking part? '''[[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/September 2024/Participants|Sign up here]]'''.

'''Backlog update:''' The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to {{no ping|Schminnte}}, who led with over 2,300 points.


Hi there, BuySomeApples,
Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to {{no ping|JTtheOG}}, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers#Next backlog drive|May backlog drive planning discussion]].


== ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message ==
It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!
