New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Nightfury/Archives/2017, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

  • The new page backlog is currently at 18,511 pages. We have worked hard to decrease from over 22,000, but more hard work is needed! Please consider reviewing even just a few pages a a day.
  • Some editors are committing to work specifically on patrolling new pages on 15 July. If you have not reviewed new pages in a while, this might be a good time to be involved. Please remember that quality of patrolling is more important than quantity, that the speedy deletion criteria should be followed strictly, and that ovetagging for minor issues should be avoided.

Technology update:

  • Several requests have been put into Phabractor to increase usability of the New Pages Feed and the Page Curation toolbar. For more details or to suggest improvements go to Wikipedia:Page Curation/Suggested improvements
  • The tutorial has been updated to include links to the following useful userscripts. If you were not aware of them, they could be useful in your efforts reviewing new pages:

An AfD close..

Hi Nightfury! Please self-revert your close at this AfD.Don't close AfD's which have failed to acquire any participation as No consenus.Kvng's nomination, in this case, stands similar to an un-contested Prod and a third relist or usually a soft delete shall apply.While there is scope for closer's discretion, the AfD nom statement which may be treated as an equivalent PROD rationale was solid enough!Cheers!Winged Blades Godric 10:34, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Winged Blades of Godric, feel free to reopen it yourself. As I said on closure, I do not hold prejudice on it being renominated. As for your edit to my userpage, can I ask you to obtain my permission before editing in future. I hold the passwords for this and my old account, I merely asked for the names to be swapped. Nightfury 13:34, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Greetings!As to the user-page editing, this shows that you were basically renamed to Nightfury.Thouht it to be a plain rename which means that the prev. account stands to be unable for use(it's just a plain redirect!).Was mistaken.Sorry!Winged Blades Godric 13:51, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Nightfury/Archives/2017, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

  • The new page backlog is currently at 16,991 pages. We have worked hard to decrease from over 22,000, but more hard work is needed! Please consider reviewing even just a few pages a a day.

Technology update:

  • Rentier has created a NPP browser in WMF Labs that allows you to search new unreviewed pages using keywords and categories.

General project update:

  • The Wikimedia Foundation Community Tech team is working with the community to implement the autoconfirmed article creation trial. The trial is currently set to start on 7 September 2017, pending final approval of the technical features.
  • Please remember to focus on the quality of review: correct tagging of articles and not tagbombing are important. Searching for potential copyright violations is also important, and it can be aided by Earwig's Copyvio Detector, which can be added to your toolbar for ease of use with this user script.
  • To keep up with the latest conversation on New Pages Patrol or to ask questions, you can go to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers and add it to your watchlist.
