Hi Naraht,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

Hello, Naraht. Voting in the 2016 Arbitration Committee elections is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
If you wish to participate in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 22:08, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello Naraht I have noticed that on 16 December 2016 you moved the Cincopa page to sandbox (if I understood the log correctly). /info/en/?search=User:James.h259/sandbox What does it mean? I would like to see a page about Cincopa in Wikipedia. More than 2 years ago it was deleted as someone probably wrote bad description. Could you kindly suggest what should be done to add the page. Cincopa is 10 years old big company with a lot of users all over the world. It is kind of strange that it does not have its own Wikipedia page, as companies much smaller then Cincopa have wikipedia pages.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
If you wish to participate in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 22:08, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello Naraht I have noticed that on 16 December 2016 you moved the Cincopa page to sandbox (if I understood the log correctly). /info/en/?search=User:James.h259/sandbox What does it mean? I would like to see a page about Cincopa in Wikipedia. More than 2 years ago it was deleted as someone probably wrote bad description. Could you kindly suggest what should be done to add the page. Cincopa is 10 years old big company with a lot of users all over the world. It is kind of strange that it does not have its own Wikipedia page, as companies much smaller then Cincopa have wikipedia pages.
