==CSD tagging == |
|||
Hello, Passengerpigeon, |
|||
Please do not tag new pages (like [[Being Human (Music Producer)]]) right after they have been created. The editor might be working on improving them and it's hard for articles to meet Wikipedia standards 5 or 10 minutes after they have been created. If the editor is working on the article, please give them more time before tagging a page to be deleted. And if you could help them improve the article, even better! Thanks. <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 04:27, 6 January 2021 (UTC) |
|||
*Dear {{ping|Liz}}, thanks for reaching out to me; I already follow that principle with A1 and A3 deletions, but in this case, nothing the page creator could have done in terms of finding sources etc. would have prevented deletion, because it was clear that the subject simply wasn't notable enough. Thank you, <b>[[User:Passengerpigeon|<span style="color:#E68A00;">Passenger</span>]][[Special:Contribs/Passengerpigeon|<span style="color:#4C6680;">pigeon</span>]] ([[User talk:Passengerpigeon|<span style="color:grey;">talk</span>]])</b> 04:31, 6 January 2021 (UTC) |

==Concern regarding [[Draft:Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association]]== |
|||
[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, Passengerpigeon. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that [[Draft:Melbourne Tramcar Preservation Association]], a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Draft space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for [[WP:MAINSPACE|article space]]. |
|||
If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion under [[WP:G13|CSD G13]]. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it. You may request [[WP:USERFY|userfication]] of the content if it meets requirements. |
|||
If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available [[WP:REFUND/G13|here]]. |
|||
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. [[User:FireflyBot|FireflyBot]] ([[User talk:FireflyBot|talk]]) 04:03, 22 March 2021 (UTC) |

[[File:NPP unreviewed article statistics as of April 2, 2024.svg|thumb|400px|New Page Review queue January to March 2024]] |
||
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}, |
|||
'''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. |
|||
Please join [[Wikipedia_talk:New_pages_patrol/Reviewers#AFC_reviewer_Olaf_Kosinsky|''this discussion'']] - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including [[Wikipedia:Autopatrolled|Autopatrolled]]. Even our review systems themselves at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation|AfC]] and [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers|NPR]] have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs. |
|||
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. |
|||
[[WP:COPYVIO|Copyright violations]] are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol#Copyright_violations_(WP:COPYVIO)|'''here''']]. |
|||
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]]. |
|||
At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages. |
|||
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! |
|||
There are currently '''706''' New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers. |
|||
'''2023 Awards''' |
|||
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software. |

[[File:New page reviewer of the year cup.svg|74px|left]] |
||
{{no ping|Onel5969}} won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. {{no ping|Hey man im josh}} led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Awards|Awards page]] and the [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Awards#NPP Hall of Fame|Hall of Fame]]. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing! |
|||
Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/Coordination#New_Page_Review_Coordinators|here]]. |

'''WMF work on PageTriage:''' The [[:mw:Moderator Tools|WMF Moderator Tools team]] and volunteer software developers [[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/PageTriage/+/966286|deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October]], and then [[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/PageTriage/+/967661|gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November]]. This concludes most major work to [[Special:NewPagesFeed]], and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who [[Wikipedia:Page Curation/2023 Moderator Tools project#October 20, 2023: Final update!|wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October]]. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits. |
|||
==Important notice== |
|||
'''Recruitment:''' A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited. |

== Adoption request == |
|||
Hi Passengerpigeon -- Thanks for patrolling -- I've declined your U5 request on [[User:DrPaulRosenfeld/sandbox]] because it is clearly an attempt at an article draft, and while notability isn't currently demonstrated, it is at least ''possible'' under [[WP:PROF]]. Until we decide to prohibit autobiographies, rather than just strongly deprecating them, that is never a reason for deletion alone. I also declined your G11 on [[Draft:GazipurShaheen Cadet Academy]] because the promotion was restricted to two paragraphs that could easily be removed. Regards, |
|||
Hi Passengerpigeon! Would you like to adopt me? I started editing in late January. Since joining I have done recent changes patrolling. In doing so, I would notice issues with certain articles and I would stick around to see if I can help a bit more; examples: |
|||
*[[Nicolas Schöffer]] – investigated the cause for a problematic addition ([https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Nicolas_Sch%C3%B6ffer&oldid=1069724219 revision]) by a good-faith editor ([[User talk:Mirabella#Under construction|link]]), and nominated the page that turned out to be the cause of the problem for deletion ([[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Article under Construction|MfD discussion]], ongoing); |
|||
*[[Nawab Mir Khudrath Nawaz Jung Bahadur]] – helped remove original research, put up cleanup templates, and did some work on this questionable article; |
|||
*[[Holly Williams (Australian journalist)]] – tried to mitigate the effects of an editor insisting on various poor changes. At a certain point, I reported them for edit warring ([[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/3RRArchive447#User:173.66.134.81 reported by User:Twsabin (Result: Semi)|link]]) which led to the article being protected; |
|||
*[[Draft:Laura Lott]] - tried to mitigate the effects of a paid editor giving the draft a promotional character, when I feel that it could be a normal draft/article on a notable topic (but maybe I'm wrong!); |
|||
Most of my edits in mainspace have been reverts of vandalism. I have nominated around ten pages for speedy deletion. In one such instance, I made a mistake ([[User talk:Twsabin/Archive 1#Speedy tagging|link]]) |
|||
I understand; I tagged the sandbox for U5 in that case because of a combination of tone (it read strongly like a resume), its autobiographical nature, and the fact that the author hadn't contributed to Wikipedia outside of writing it. <b>[[User:Passengerpigeon|<span style="color:#E68A00;">Passenger</span>]][[Special:Contribs/Passengerpigeon|<span style="color:#4C6680;">pigeon</span>]] ([[User talk:Passengerpigeon|<span style="color:grey;">talk</span>]])</b> 14:21, 1 December 2024 (UTC) |
|||
So that's me thus far, in a nutshell. When looking at the [[Wikipedia:Task Center|Task Center]] I realize that I haven't even scratched the surface. However, I'm still mostly interested in recent changes patrolling, and want to stay focused on this for a decent period of time. Maybe I will only be doing this type of maintenance work on Wikipedia. I don't have any ideas for new articles, but I enjoy editing a lot. I want to feel confident that my edits benefit the project, so I can contribute more systematically. Of all the currently available adopters you seem like the one who is probably the most focused on recent changes patrolling and anti-vandalism efforts, which is why I decided to message you. I really hope that you will take me on. Sincerely, [[User talk:Twsabin|tw<sup>s</sup>abin]] 22:50, 4 February 2022 (UTC) |

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024
[edit]Hello Passengerpigeon,
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 Schminnte, who led with over 2,300 points.
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 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 May backlog drive planning discussion.
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!
2023 Awards
Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!
WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.
Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.
Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.
Reminders:
- You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
- Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
- To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

LTA case page
[edit]Hi. To save me searching for it, would you mind pointing me to the diff that supports this? Am also doubtful about its relevance. All the best. - Euryalus (talk) 04:39, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
- Nvm, Seems like the origin is this? Am not convinced that this has sufficient relevance to be included on the case page, but as a compromise I've reworded the sentence to reflect their post rather than speculation on wider mental issues. Happy to discuss. -- Euryalus (talk) 05:23, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

Chinese mountain chickadee
[edit]Hi. Where did you find “Chinese mountain chickadee” being used as an alternative common name for Poecile superciliosus? Thanks, Cremastra (u — c) 15:04, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Cremastra I created the redirect because of the line in the article that said it was sometimes considered a subspecies of the mountain chickadee. On second thought, perhaps the name isn't common enough to warrant a redirect. Passengerpigeon (talk) 15:05, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- I think to warrant a redirect, it would have to be actually used somewhere as a common name, which I'm not seeing. Cremastra (u — c) 15:08, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
