MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 03:46, 8 December 2020 (UTC) Hallo, you participated in this discussion in its early stages. Therefore, I would take the liberty to ask you if you would like to review 2014–15 FC Winterthur season again. In the meantime, I have added texts and citations. Perhaps you would like to add a new comment, and perhaps with a couple of suggestions, to the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2014–15 FC Winterthur season discussion page. Your opinion would be appreciated. Thank you very much for your participation and please feel free to delete this message from your page, if you so wish. Thanks again and kindest greetings from Switzerland -- Huligan0 ( talk) 22:03, 8 December 2020 (UTC) A kitten for you!![]() Thank you for the anniversary message.

New Page Patrol December Newsletter![]() Hello CAPTAIN RAJU,
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.
![]() ![]()
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.
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.

Scripts++ Newsletter – Issue 19News and updates associated with user scripts from the past month (December 2020). Hello everyone and welcome to the 19th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter:
As always, if anyone else would like to contribute, help is appreciated. Stay safe, and happy holidays! -- DannyS712 ( talk) 00:19, 18 December 2020 (UTC) AdressbuchThis edit was problematic as the German word is spelled with just one d. Maybe you can find a way to exclude "Adressbuch" from your typo search. Checking up on typos is important work, so don't let me discourage you, just sometimes it is bound to go wrong. Agathoclea ( talk) 09:41, 18 December 2020 (UTC) Need Help about Rrahul SudhirHey, I just created new page for Rrahul Sudhir and have added relevant info with references to renowned newspapers like Times of India and Outlook India. Please review it. There was an existing draft page (which I realized after creating the new one) which was declined by admins owing to flawed content n references. Do I need to move my new corrected content to the older draft or should the new one remain as the final? Also, I cannot see the new page indexed in Google or Wiki search box. Any idea why? Thanks ( Panchalidraupadi ( talk) 18:25, 20 December 2020 (UTC)) Merry Christmas
