I'll explain what happened as you probably didn't understood based on this. I wouldn't have understood what i did either.
So, there were 4 "transfer articles": List of J1 League football transfers 2023, List of J2 League football transfers 2023, List of J3 League football transfers 2023 and List of Japan Football League football transfers 2023.
Basically, all four articles would at first, by me, have on them all the player transfers that happened/will happen throughout the entire 2023. After a second thought (four months late), i realized it would be too much work, and going contrary with the nomenclature of previous J.League (Japanese professional football leagues) transfers articles. For example, on 2018, notice the names of the articles -- List of J1 League football transfers winter 2017–18 and List of J1 League football transfers summer 2018.
As the second paragraph had shown, the 2023 transfers articles were an odd one out among the preceding articles on the subject. Seeing this, i decided to rename the articles related to 2023.
Another problem came as i quickly moved the page with the typo again, unintentionally leaving a redirect. And the erroneously named "List of J1 League football transfers winter 2022–23" became what it should be at the first place, "List of J2 League football transfers winter 2022–23".
So i had left two articles: "List of J1 League football transfers 2023", that i needed to rename to "List of J1 League football transfers winter 2022–23", but it became a redirect to the article i mentioned above. Instead of merging history, i cut-and-paste the "List of J1 League football transfers 2023" article into the newly-renamed and previously erroneous redirect "List of J1 League football transfers winter 2022–23".
However, the edit history of the article remained at the "List of J1 League football transfers 2023", that became a redirect instead.
My apologies for such trouble. ~~ SoftReverie ( talk) 03:04, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Welcome, subscribers, to the seventh Discontent Content newsletter! Discontent Content is a newsletter aiming to collate and improve Wikipedia articles in need of more eyes and hands to get them in shape. Its unique trimodal structure allows editors to work where they feel comfortable -- with stubs and starts needing to be brought to standard, mid-quality articles with Good or Featured potential, or quality-assessed articles needing help to maintain their status. Articles in this category are those that need to be brought up to a minimum quality standard. Some will be stubs; others will be longer articles that nonetheless have significant concerns putting them far below B- or C-class adequacy. This issue's Category 1 articles are:
Articles in this category, while in better current shape than Category 1, are still missing something. They have the potential to be truly high-quality content, and may have been at one point. With work, they can be brought up to dizzying heights. This issue's Category 2 articles are:
Articles in this category have been assessed through a content review process in the past, but may require work to be brought up to current GA/FA standard. Editors can help bring them to a level where the star or plus near their names can once again shine. This issue's Category 3 articles are:
I LIVE. Hi, guys. Great to see you. I felt like doing this again. Will I do more? Let's find out. I hope you're all well, you beautiful people. |

Hi TartarTorte. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group. Please check back at
the permissions page in case your user right is time-limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as
patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the
New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at
New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the
deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the
new page reviewer talk page or ask via the
NPP Discord. In addition, please remember:
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies. — Ingenuity ( talk • contribs) 21:35, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello, TartarTorte. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " SEPTA Route 9".

When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Hello TartarTorte,
Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!
October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here.
PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon.
Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.
Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.
Reminders:

I wanted to let you know that the RFC regarding Bryan Johnson (entrepreneur) has concluded with the consensus being in favor of adding information about project blueprint to the article. You and I had previously discussed this regarding the redirect page here. Given the result of the RFC, I have changed the redirect page to a disambiguation page. You can find it here. I did my best to write a description for project blueprint as it relates to supercar championship, but given that it is a topic I don't have familiarity with I may have failed to describe it properly, so please make any changes that you see fit. Also, this is the first time I have created a disambiguation page, so please forgive any mistakes I may have made. Vontheri ( talk) 09:29, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2015–16 Ligue 1 (Niger), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Espoir FC. 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.)

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.
It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!
2023 Awards
Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!
WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.
Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.
Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.

I'll explain what happened as you probably didn't understood based on this. I wouldn't have understood what i did either.
So, there were 4 "transfer articles": List of J1 League football transfers 2023, List of J2 League football transfers 2023, List of J3 League football transfers 2023 and List of Japan Football League football transfers 2023.
Basically, all four articles would at first, by me, have on them all the player transfers that happened/will happen throughout the entire 2023. After a second thought (four months late), i realized it would be too much work, and going contrary with the nomenclature of previous J.League (Japanese professional football leagues) transfers articles. For example, on 2018, notice the names of the articles -- List of J1 League football transfers winter 2017–18 and List of J1 League football transfers summer 2018.
As the second paragraph had shown, the 2023 transfers articles were an odd one out among the preceding articles on the subject. Seeing this, i decided to rename the articles related to 2023.
Another problem came as i quickly moved the page with the typo again, unintentionally leaving a redirect. And the erroneously named "List of J1 League football transfers winter 2022–23" became what it should be at the first place, "List of J2 League football transfers winter 2022–23".
So i had left two articles: "List of J1 League football transfers 2023", that i needed to rename to "List of J1 League football transfers winter 2022–23", but it became a redirect to the article i mentioned above. Instead of merging history, i cut-and-paste the "List of J1 League football transfers 2023" article into the newly-renamed and previously erroneous redirect "List of J1 League football transfers winter 2022–23".
However, the edit history of the article remained at the "List of J1 League football transfers 2023", that became a redirect instead.
My apologies for such trouble. ~~ SoftReverie ( talk) 03:04, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Welcome, subscribers, to the seventh Discontent Content newsletter! Discontent Content is a newsletter aiming to collate and improve Wikipedia articles in need of more eyes and hands to get them in shape. Its unique trimodal structure allows editors to work where they feel comfortable -- with stubs and starts needing to be brought to standard, mid-quality articles with Good or Featured potential, or quality-assessed articles needing help to maintain their status. Articles in this category are those that need to be brought up to a minimum quality standard. Some will be stubs; others will be longer articles that nonetheless have significant concerns putting them far below B- or C-class adequacy. This issue's Category 1 articles are:
Articles in this category, while in better current shape than Category 1, are still missing something. They have the potential to be truly high-quality content, and may have been at one point. With work, they can be brought up to dizzying heights. This issue's Category 2 articles are:
Articles in this category have been assessed through a content review process in the past, but may require work to be brought up to current GA/FA standard. Editors can help bring them to a level where the star or plus near their names can once again shine. This issue's Category 3 articles are:
I LIVE. Hi, guys. Great to see you. I felt like doing this again. Will I do more? Let's find out. I hope you're all well, you beautiful people. |

Hi TartarTorte. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group. Please check back at
the permissions page in case your user right is time-limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as
patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the
New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at
New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the
deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the
new page reviewer talk page or ask via the
NPP Discord. In addition, please remember:
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies. — Ingenuity ( talk • contribs) 21:35, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

The article 2023 Ojai earthquake has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non-notable event. There's no encyclopedic value with these types of earthquakes. Feel free to create something on WikiNews.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2023 Ojai earthquake until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Hello TartarTorte,
Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!
October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here.
PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon.
Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.
Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.

I wanted to let you know that the RFC regarding Bryan Johnson (entrepreneur) has concluded with the consensus being in favor of adding information about project blueprint to the article. You and I had previously discussed this regarding the redirect page here. Given the result of the RFC, I have changed the redirect page to a disambiguation page. You can find it here. I did my best to write a description for project blueprint as it relates to supercar championship, but given that it is a topic I don't have familiarity with I may have failed to describe it properly, so please make any changes that you see fit. Also, this is the first time I have created a disambiguation page, so please forgive any mistakes I may have made. Vontheri ( talk) 09:29, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2015–16 Ligue 1 (Niger), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Espoir FC. 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.)

The article David Larson (poker player) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No real indication of notability, only sources are routine 'match reports' on poker news sites and a stats database. Doesn't meet WP:NBIO.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

FWIW I don't think this edit was "too rambly" at all. It's more concise and better structured than a lot of !votes I leave in RfD discussions. Thryduulf ( talk) 15:01, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello, TartarTorte. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " List of ship launches in the 17th century".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 20:14, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2024).
Hello TartarTorte,
Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to Schminnte, who led with over 2,300 points.
Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to JTtheOG, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.
Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.
It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!
2023 Awards
Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!
WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.
Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.
Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.
Reminders:
