New Page Patrol December Newsletter

Hello Bogger,

Year in review

It has been a productive year for New Page Patrol as we've roughly cut the size of the New Page Patrol queue in half this year. We have been fortunate to have a lot of great work done by Rosguill who was the reviewer of the most pages and redirects this past year. Thanks and credit go to JTtheOG and Onel5969 who join Rosguill in repeating in the top 10 from last year. Thanks to John B123, Hughesdarren, and Mccapra who all got the NPR permission this year and joined the top 10. Also new to the top ten is DannyS712 bot III, programmed by DannyS712 which has helped to dramatically reduce the number of redirects that have needed human patrolling by patrolling certain types of redirects (e.g. for differences in accents) and by also patrolling editors who are on on the redirect whitelist.

Reviewer of the Year

John B123 has been named reviewer of the year for 2020. John has held the permission for just over 6 months and in that time has helped cut into the queue by reviewing more than 18,000 articles. His talk page shows his efforts to communicate with users, upholding NPP's goal of nurturing new users and quality over quantity.

NPP Technical Achievement Award

As a special recognition and thank you DannyS712 has been awarded the first NPP Technical Achievement Award. His work programming the bot has helped us patrol redirects tremendously - more than 60,000 redirects this past year. This has been a large contribution to New Page Patrol and definitely is worthy of recognition.

Six Month Queue Data: Today – 2262 Low – 2232 High – 10271

Please help assess my expanded article: Gourd mouth organ

Hello there, I'm currently working on expanding the article Gourd mouth organ as a part of my university unit. I want to thank you for approving my nomination of Gourd mouth organ for DYK. And can you please help me improve my newly expanded article by giving any feedback, advice or assessment? Thank you very much! And hope you have a lovely day. Ryssian (talk) 11:20, 31 May 2021 (UTC)

Ryssian Great work! Some general feedback: Cite books once, then use page numbers in individual references (WP:IBID). There's a good example of this system in JFK#References. Use the Template:About at the top of the article, to succinctly state the difference between Gourd mouth organ and Hulusi, for example {{About|a mouth organ made from green gourds weighing more than 50 kgs|similar, but smaller, polkadotted instruments|Hulusi}} =>

This page is about a mouth organ made from green gourds weighing more than 50 kgs. For similar, but smaller, polkadotted instruments, see Hulusi.

(replacing with actual distinguishing details). Also include a reciprocal message at the top of Hulusi. Any reason for the preference for "Burma" over "Myanmar"? "Myanmar" seems to be the standard. Bogger (talk) 22:06, 31 May 2021 (UTC)

Also, use the Template:redirect to explain that Hulusheng redirects to gourd mouth organ, but hulusi and sheng (instrument) are separate. Bogger (talk) 22:15, 31 May 2021 (UTC)

Bogger Thank you for the advice and feedback! I will start editing my citations and putting in About and Redirect templates asap. Also, I just changed all the Burma to Myanmar and I think the reason why I put Burma in the first place was that a lot of sources I used were using Burma in their texts, but I didn't notice now it has changed to Myanmar, thank you for the heads up! Ryssian (talk) 03:22, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

Ryssian Also, have a look at this comparison and try to rewrite any non-stock phrases, ("gourd mouth organ" is a stock phrase, but "will sound on both inhalation and exhalation", is not), or quote the source directly.Bogger (talk) 14:05, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

Bogger Thank you! Just did some rephrasing and added some citations. Ryssian (talk) 01:46, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
