The backlog drive will begin on January 1st and run until January 29th. Prize tiers and other info can be found HERE.
Awards will be given in tiers in two categories:

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect HRH Prince Harry of Wales. Since you had some involvement with the HRH Prince Harry of Wales redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Bill Stuart-White, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Falmouth ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

I've reverted your addition of the ordination template at Stephen Cottrell because it wasn't showing anything other than the location. Looking at John Taylor (bishop of Winchester), its a very "busy" template verses the Orders section that is already part of the Christian leader infobox. What benefits does the template have over the status quo? Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 15:09, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
After reverting your changes to President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom where you took names like "Lady Hale" and "Lord Neuberger" and turned them into "Brenda, Baroness Hale of Richmond" and "David, Baron Neuberger of Abbotsbury", I noticed that you have gone through almost all of the articles for the higher British judiciary and changed the names to this style. Not only is this not in keeping with standard practice for reference to peers, [1] it is also not in keeping with standard practice in referring to senior members of the judiciary in law reports, [2] and it is not in keeping with the precedent on Wikipedia, as every article universally referred to such figures as merely "Lady Hale" and "Lord Neuberger" before your edits (for instance, at Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales or List of Lords of Appeal in Ordinary). Indeed, I have never in my life seen any peer referred to as "X, Baron Y of Z" - even on the UK Parliamentary website, their full title is "Lord Y of Z". [3] In light of this, is there any chance you could you revert the pages in question to their proper form? CuriousCabbage ( talk) 16:20, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

Hello DBD, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!
Overall the June backlog drive was a success, reducing the last 3,000 or so to below 500. However, as expected, 90% of the patrolling was done by less than 10% of reviewers.
Since the drive closed, the backlog has begun to rise sharply again and is back up to nearly 1,400 already. Please help reduce this total and keep it from raising further by reviewing some articles each day.
