Regarding
this edit: did you mean not only should a banned/blocked user not be able to use

Greetings, Slatersteven,
I was over at AFD and noticed a blue link on a supposedly speedily-deleted article you nominated for AFD, Arghya Bose. I don't know if this is a case of G4 or not, as I didn't see the previous version, but I thought that perhaps you could make a determination. Thanks! CThomas3 ( talk) 23:51, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
No, that is not mine, it's for everybody. But I do have one, not plush but worth £14.99 according to label. Gråbergs Gråa Sång ( talk) 13:58, 11 July 2019 (UTC)

This portion of my website is based on data provided by manufacturer and everyone can verify it's values.
Alfa 147, 156, 159, 166, GT production dates
ePer programme provided by manufacurer to search for spare parts that also shows data about particular VINs, like production date. Please type in VINs from the site above to verify it for Yourself. VIN can also, and was, be verified by Centro Documentazione, but right now they ask for payment for each 'certificate'. This data is used on those 4 websites:
Alfa Romeo 156
Alfa Romeo V6 engine
Alfa Romeo 166
Alfa Romeo 159. Truthfulness of provided information seems to be clouded by the title of the website alone.
To not use this information would for example change production date of Alfa 166 from correct 1996 to incorrect 1998.

I see from comments above that you are still having problems both parsing what other people are saying and actually responding with things that are (a) comprehensible, (b) relevant, and (c) not obfuscatory stirring of often already muddy waters. Our recent tete-a-tete at the FRAMBAN page is another example. Should I ever return to editing, I think this stream of problematic commentary across a wide range of discussions needs itself to be discussed at WP:ANI, perhaps with a view to some sort of topic ban restricting the extent to which you can contribute outside of articles themselves. - Sitush ( talk) 13:00, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
This is a not untypical example of you managing even to create problems in article discussions. If you cannot be bothered to read it all, say nowt. - Sitush ( talk) 11:30, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
And it goes on. Just back off all centralised discussion noticeboards, please. I anticipate you saying that you self-reverted so it is not a problem but, alas, it is. You're not competent to get involved in such things. - Sitush ( talk) 09:45, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
Certain users time might be better spend telling the far more disruptive U1Quattro and Ybsone and Vauxford to stop wasting ANI's time and shut up, rather then singling me out for special attention for one comment in how many weeks that is "problematic" after I removed it? Slatersteven ( talk) 10:40, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
It is against wiki policy to simply delete relevant article content. Do not simply do another reversion on the Korean War article, or I will call upon the community to discipline you. If you are having trouble with such an obviously relevant content, YOU are responsible for starting a discussion about it on the article's talk page. It is not OK to delete meaningful political historic facts that affected thousands of people, creating an international incident, from articles about history, no matter how much you hate them or are embarrassed by them. 09:01, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Dear Slatersteven, In the span of 30 minutes, you forwarded me with 4 notes on how to improve this article, and then with the notice for deletion. Is it not a bit rush? Articles based on sources from multiple languages take a bit to mature, especially if the aforementioned languages are not too well known or represented in the west. Sincerely Hyrdlak ( talk) 14:36, 20 August 2019 (UTC)Hyrdlak
Dear Slatersteven,
1. Yes, it was only 30 min before you called for an improvement, and then slated this article for deletion. It is not a good practice. There is no Wikipedia document providing improvement must be done within half an hour before the proposal for deletion is applied.
2. I wonder whether you know Albanian and Esperanto languages and cultures. I see no articles of yours on this fields. Hence, I propose that your notability concerns in this regard be adjudicated by an editor with a command of both languages and with a good background knowledge of the fields.
3. On the same basis, you are not competent to judge whether the sources are 'dubious.'
4. I do not know about what primary sources you are talking about, apart from the statute of the Albanian Esperanto Association.
5. If people's dates and places of birth unsupported by citations bother you, I'd propose you start with William Shakespeare or Boris Johnson.
6. In light of the aforesaid, you are inexplicably biased and combative. Hence, let us have a competent third editor to decide on this piece and its merits.

In the month of September, Wikiproject Military history is running a project-wide edit-a-thon, Backlog Banzai. There are heaps of different areas you can work on, for which you claim points, and at the end of the month all sorts of whiz-bang awards will be handed out. Every player wins a prize! There is even a bit of friendly competition built in for those that like that sort of thing. Sign up now at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/September 2019 Backlog Banzai to take part. For the coordinators, Peacemaker67 ( click to talk to me) 08:18, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election are now open. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next year. The project coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining our internal structure and processes. They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available here. If you are interested in running, please sign up here by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting doesn't commence until 15 September. If you have any questions, you can contact any member of the coord team. Cheers, Peacemaker67 ( click to talk to me) 02:38, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
On 3 September 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Jew with a coin, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in some Polish homes, an image of a Jew holding a coin (example pictured, left) hangs to the left of the doorway, and is customarily turned upside down on the Sabbath so that good fortune may fall upon the household? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Jew with a coin. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Jew with a coin), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hello Slatersteven,
Instead of reaching a magic 300 as it once did last year, the backlog approaching 6,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google.
A proposal is taking place here to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR.
Why I Hate Speedy Deleters, a 2008 essay by long since retired Ballonman, is still as valid today. Those of us who patrol large numbers of new pages can be forgiven for making the occasional mistake while others can learn from their 'beginner' errors. Worth reading.
Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon (you will need to have 'Nominated for deletion' enabled for this in your filters) may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders using Twinkle. They require your further verification.
Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary. WMF policy requires paid editors to connect to their adverts.
Regular reviewers will appreciate the most recent enhancements to the New Pages Feed and features in the Curation tool, and there are still more to come. Due to the wealth of information now displayed by ORES, reviewers are strongly encouraged to use the system now rather than Twinkle; it will also correctly populate the logs.
Stub sorting, by SD0001: A new script is available for adding/removing stub tags. See User:SD0001/StubSorter.js, It features a simple HotCat-style dynamic search field. Many of the reviewers who are using it are finding it an improvement upon other available tools.
Assessment: The script at User:Evad37/rater makes the addition of Wikiproject templates extremely easy. New page creators rarely do this. Reviewers are not obliged to make these edits but they only take a few seconds. They can use the Curation message system to let the creator know what they have done.

You seem combative, Steve. And intent on shutting down this line of discussion by labelling it inappropriate. You didn't seem very interested in discussing improvements to the article yourself, more like pretending Wikipedia is freely accessible from China, which I don't believe it is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.226.66.1 ( talk) 12:15, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
You seem to claim to have have mind reading powers. To know my intent when I've actually said very little. Yet you don't even seem able to read and comprehend my comments properly. Claiming that I said China prevents Taiwan access to Wikipedia which I did not. You're very close to coming across as acting in bad faith. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.226.66.1 ( talk) 12:35, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
I know that you and I haven't had the best interactions in the past, and you haven't a lot of reason to AGF towards me. In any case, I am asking that you do so in the Aquatic Ape Hypothesis article talk and specifically where it concerns User:CEngelbrecht2. I am trying to point out the obvious outcomes of his behavior - the patterns of which you and I are both all too familiar with.

Hi Slatersteven,
Thank you for your feedback with regard to the page Arghya Bose which you nominated for deletion. The last time it was deleted in March 2018, it was a case of G7, and the deletion had a point. The article this time had at least 5 third party sources which proves notability beyond doubt. You are more experienced than me in Wikipedia, without doubt. I am from Calcutta, and know the notability of Arghya Bose in the academic circles in Bengal. Hence I thought I should ask for your advice and your discretion in this regard. Thanks a lot in advance! BChakroborty62 ( talk) BChakroborty62 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:12, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
Hi Slatersteven,
Thank you for your feedback. The previous 3 CSD notices have all been done in accordance with G4 with reference to the previous non-substantiated article. Two deletions previously have been done by myself previously following G7. However, the present article was heavily referenced with many reliable independent sources (The Telegraph, The Indian Express, Eisamay, Bongodorshon) talking only about the subject - this was the first article that was quite heavily developed by several people's contributions.
Can I request you to please check the references of the presently deleted article for your determination? Thanks a lot! BChakroborty62 ( talk) 03:17, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Also one other CSD was for a double page created by someone else at the ame time as this one. Thanks for taking note. :) BChakroborty62 ( talk) 03:42, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Hello! You haven't nominated the article properly, since your 2nd nomination merged with the first one at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jersey Devil Coaster. You will need to create Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jersey Devil Coaster (2nd nomination) manually. Regards, Jovanmilic97 ( talk) 19:35, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
Hello. You haven't nominated the article properly. I've read some of your previous edits, and it's somewhat obvious you seem to delete various wikipedia pages without doing any research (Which is what I can see here). As the page you want to delete has being sourced and clearly follows Wikipedia's rules, I'll be deleting the citation you put on the wikipedia page. Please make sure to do your own research on particular individuals! (Obvious you didn't read the sources, you flagged in less then a minute after the page going up).

Just so as to not leave you in the dark regarding Special:Diff/920364865, instead of going into a lengthy decline reason I've just removed it per Wikipedia:Deny recognition. The request is a reference to the perceived magnitude of a subscriber race between PewDiePie and T-Series on YouTube, the former of which was helped in his efforts by another YouTuber, MrBeast. It's become a very dead and quite tiresome meme at this point. Hope you don't mind the removal, of your follow-up question but that's the long and the short of it. Obviously not encyclopedic so as I say, removal and denial of recognition is best or apply user warnings through Wikipedia:Twinkle for recidivists. SITH (talk) 09:25, 9 October 2019 (UTC)

If you are referring to the section on territory seized by the Turks, I did not cancel out or revert anybodies edit. Almost everything stayed the same. I just rearranged the words (which remained the same) to give a better flow of the sentence. The only thing that was changed is the number of areas taken from 41 to 39 as per the cited source which counts Tell Abyad and Suluk among the 41. How did I violate 1RR?

Hello Slatersteven,
This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon.
There are now 812 holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action.
Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If each reviewer soon does only 2 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by every reviewer doing only 1 review every 2 days - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.
Want to join? Consider adding the
NPP Pledge userbox.
Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some
really cool awards.
Admin Barkeep49 has been officially invested as NPP/NPR coordinator by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers.
Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: This official Wikipedia article will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See The Hallmarks to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources.
Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. New Reviewer mentorship will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional peer review cohort for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch November 13.
The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights.
There is to be no wish list for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.

If you are having trouble with such an obviously relevant content, YOU are responsible for starting a discussion about it on the article's talk page. It is not OK to delete meaningful political historic facts that affected thousands of people, creating an international incident, from articles about history, no matter how much you hate them or are embarrassed by them. 09:01, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Despite what you said during Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tom Kratman, the late Mack Reynolds was a DeLeonist, raised in the Socialist Labor Party tradition, and no kind of right-winger at all. -- Orange Mike | Talk 23:05, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
you can't just reference a page from a book that it virtually impossible to verify and consider the reference clear and not open to a challenge. Prove your citation. I don't beleave the book says what is proposed so I am asing for it to be clarified 86.11.51.106 ( talk) 20:58, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for the reference in regards to afd Michael Z. Williamson. As you can see im new to all this and tried to be clear i was expressing an opinion and concern as an out sider. Based on the behaviours going on and how that reflected on Wikipedia rather then wether or not the article in question was valid.
So again thank you for the ref i will read into it.

Dear Slatersteven, In the span of 30 minutes, you forwarded me with 4 notes on how to improve this article, and then with the notice for deletion. Is it not a bit rush? Articles based on sources from multiple languages take a bit to mature, especially if the aforementioned languages are not too well known or represented in the west. Sincerely Hyrdlak ( talk) 14:36, 20 August 2019 (UTC)Hyrdlak
Dear Slatersteven,
1. Yes, it was only 30 min before you called for an improvement, and then slated this article for deletion. It is not a good practice. There is no Wikipedia document providing improvement must be done within half an hour before the proposal for deletion is applied.
2. I wonder whether you know Albanian and Esperanto languages and cultures. I see no articles of yours on this fields. Hence, I propose that your notability concerns in this regard be adjudicated by an editor with a command of both languages and with a good background knowledge of the fields.
3. On the same basis, you are not competent to judge whether the sources are 'dubious.'
4. I do not know about what primary sources you are talking about, apart from the statute of the Albanian Esperanto Association.
5. If people's dates and places of birth unsupported by citations bother you, I'd propose you start with William Shakespeare or Boris Johnson.
6. In light of the aforesaid, you are inexplicably biased and combative. Hence, let us have a competent third editor to decide on this piece and its merits.

In the month of September, Wikiproject Military history is running a project-wide edit-a-thon, Backlog Banzai. There are heaps of different areas you can work on, for which you claim points, and at the end of the month all sorts of whiz-bang awards will be handed out. Every player wins a prize! There is even a bit of friendly competition built in for those that like that sort of thing. Sign up now at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/September 2019 Backlog Banzai to take part. For the coordinators, Peacemaker67 ( click to talk to me) 08:18, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election are now open. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next year. The project coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining our internal structure and processes. They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available here. If you are interested in running, please sign up here by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting doesn't commence until 15 September. If you have any questions, you can contact any member of the coord team. Cheers, Peacemaker67 ( click to talk to me) 02:38, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
On 3 September 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Jew with a coin, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in some Polish homes, an image of a Jew holding a coin (example pictured, left) hangs to the left of the doorway, and is customarily turned upside down on the Sabbath so that good fortune may fall upon the household? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Jew with a coin. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Jew with a coin), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hello Slatersteven,
Instead of reaching a magic 300 as it once did last year, the backlog approaching 6,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google.
A proposal is taking place here to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR.
Why I Hate Speedy Deleters, a 2008 essay by long since retired Ballonman, is still as valid today. Those of us who patrol large numbers of new pages can be forgiven for making the occasional mistake while others can learn from their 'beginner' errors. Worth reading.
Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon (you will need to have 'Nominated for deletion' enabled for this in your filters) may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders using Twinkle. They require your further verification.
Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary. WMF policy requires paid editors to connect to their adverts.
Regular reviewers will appreciate the most recent enhancements to the New Pages Feed and features in the Curation tool, and there are still more to come. Due to the wealth of information now displayed by ORES, reviewers are strongly encouraged to use the system now rather than Twinkle; it will also correctly populate the logs.
Stub sorting, by SD0001: A new script is available for adding/removing stub tags. See User:SD0001/StubSorter.js, It features a simple HotCat-style dynamic search field. Many of the reviewers who are using it are finding it an improvement upon other available tools.
Assessment: The script at User:Evad37/rater makes the addition of Wikiproject templates extremely easy. New page creators rarely do this. Reviewers are not obliged to make these edits but they only take a few seconds. They can use the Curation message system to let the creator know what they have done.

You seem combative, Steve. And intent on shutting down this line of discussion by labelling it inappropriate. You didn't seem very interested in discussing improvements to the article yourself, more like pretending Wikipedia is freely accessible from China, which I don't believe it is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.226.66.1 ( talk) 12:15, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
You seem to claim to have have mind reading powers. To know my intent when I've actually said very little. Yet you don't even seem able to read and comprehend my comments properly. Claiming that I said China prevents Taiwan access to Wikipedia which I did not. You're very close to coming across as acting in bad faith. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.226.66.1 ( talk) 12:35, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
I know that you and I haven't had the best interactions in the past, and you haven't a lot of reason to AGF towards me. In any case, I am asking that you do so in the Aquatic Ape Hypothesis article talk and specifically where it concerns User:CEngelbrecht2. I am trying to point out the obvious outcomes of his behavior - the patterns of which you and I are both all too familiar with. Please give me a chance to work with the user and help them to see a longer view of the cross they have nailed themselves to.

Hi Slatersteven,
Thank you for your feedback with regard to the page Arghya Bose which you nominated for deletion. The last time it was deleted in March 2018, it was a case of G7, and the deletion had a point. The article this time had at least 5 third party sources which proves notability beyond doubt. You are more experienced than me in Wikipedia, without doubt. I am from Calcutta, and know the notability of Arghya Bose in the academic circles in Bengal. Hence I thought I should ask for your advice and your discretion in this regard. Thanks a lot in advance! BChakroborty62 ( talk) BChakroborty62 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:12, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
Hi Slatersteven,
Thank you for your feedback. The previous 3 CSD notices have all been done in accordance with G4 with reference to the previous non-substantiated article. Two deletions previously have been done by myself previously following G7. However, the present article was heavily referenced with many reliable independent sources (The Telegraph, The Indian Express, Eisamay, Bongodorshon) talking only about the subject - this was the first article that was quite heavily developed by several people's contributions.
Can I request you to please check the references of the presently deleted article for your determination? Thanks a lot! BChakroborty62 ( talk) 03:17, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Also one other CSD was for a double page created by someone else at the ame time as this one. Thanks for taking note. :) BChakroborty62 ( talk) 03:42, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Hello! You haven't nominated the article properly, since your 2nd nomination merged with the first one at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jersey Devil Coaster. You will need to create Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jersey Devil Coaster (2nd nomination) manually. Regards, Jovanmilic97 ( talk) 19:35, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
Hello. You haven't nominated the article properly. I've read some of your previous edits, and it's somewhat obvious you seem to delete various wikipedia pages without doing any research (Which is what I can see here). As the page you want to delete has being sourced and clearly follows Wikipedia's rules, I'll be deleting the citation you put on the wikipedia page. Please make sure to do your own research on particular individuals! (Obvious you didn't read the sources, you flagged in less then a minute after the page going up). Many thanks, [User:Foxterria|Foxterria]] ( talk) 1:27, 9 October 2019 (NZT)
Just so as to not leave you in the dark regarding Special:Diff/920364865, instead of going into a lengthy decline reason I've just removed it per Wikipedia:Deny recognition. The request is a reference to the perceived magnitude of a subscriber race between PewDiePie and T-Series on YouTube, the former of which was helped in his efforts by another YouTuber, MrBeast. It's become a very dead and quite tiresome meme at this point. Hope you don't mind the removal, of your follow-up question but that's the long and the short of it. Obviously not encyclopedic so as I say, removal and denial of recognition is best or apply user warnings through Wikipedia:Twinkle for recidivists. SITH (talk) 09:25, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
Hey there. I think it was fair, and not tendentious, to note that my original question about due weight of perspective, and when we should use particular language, had been misinterpreted. I haven't replied at the thread and I didn't intend to. Vashti ( talk) 09:00, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

If you are referring to the section on territory seized by the Turks, I did not cancel out or revert anybodies edit. Almost everything stayed the same. I just rearranged the words (which remained the same) to give a better flow of the sentence. The only thing that was changed is the number of areas taken from 41 to 39 as per the cited source which counts Tell Abyad and Suluk among the 41. How did I violate 1RR? EkoGraf ( talk) 14:25, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
1RR does not preclude one from making bold edits, such as changing a number to another number. The change has to reverse something to a previous version. El_C 15:16, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

Hello Slatersteven,
This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon.
There are now 812 holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action.
Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If each reviewer soon does only 2 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by every reviewer doing only 1 review every 2 days - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.
Want to join? Consider adding the
NPP Pledge userbox.
Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some
really cool awards.
Admin Barkeep49 has been officially invested as NPP/NPR coordinator by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers.
Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: This official Wikipedia article will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See The Hallmarks to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources.
Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. New Reviewer mentorship will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional peer review cohort for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch November 13.
The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights.
There is to be no wish list for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.
