On 8 May 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article John Green, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/John Green. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, John Green), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed.

Please do not alter the "on loan to AlphaTauri" phrase. Daniel Ricciardo is still a Red Bull test driver who has been loaned to AlphaTauri. PLEASE DO NOT VANDALIZE and believe that you are more correct than the Red Bull Team. If you're referring to the case of Carlos Sainz Jr., that article is likewise incorrect. You are not more correct than the official Red Bull Team because you are a Wikipedia editor, not a member of the Red Bull F1 team. SOURCE: “Daniel Ricciardo will be driving for Scuderia AlphaTauri with immediate effect. Joining the Scuderia on loan from Oracle Red Bull Racing, Daniel will line up in Budapest for his first race.” from https://www.redbullracing.com/int-en/daniel-ricciardo-on-loan-to-alpha-tauri-for-2023-season?utm_source=RBR_Twitter&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=DR_SAT_Announcement&utm_content=Press_Release The Man Without Fear 🦇 20:15, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia includes full names and dates of birth that have been widely published by reliable sources, or by sources linked to the subject such that it may reasonably be inferred that the subject does not object to the details being made public.Since Tom Scott has made effective efforts to not have his private details shared widely, there are not widely published reliable sources and we do not include them. There is an edit notice to this effect. Cerebral726 ( talk) 14:21, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello Cerebral726:
WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long
Backlog Drive!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 2 months outstanding reviews from the current 4+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 November 2023 through 30 November 2023.
You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.
Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
Hello! In case you don't receive ping notifications, I was wondering if you might have any interest in assisting with this request to update the CEO at Move, given your prior assistance on the talk page.

The current Construction Photography page is spam. The page is written like an advertisement. I've attempted to re-write it for the genre of Construction Photography. The current page has references that are broken, forwarded to other stock image sites, and is not a page about actual construction photography. Please review the latest addition and help make it better. It was removed and a discussion is needed on this page. Thanks. 71.224.205.150 ( talk) 18:12, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
Don't use revert for unnecessary small things such as a spelling error. Sometimes spelling errors happen. Just fix it. That's part of what Wikipedia is about. Mr. C.C. Hey yo! I didn't do it! 09:18, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi I have made some small revisions to the 2023 FIA Formula One World Championship page . On Red Bulls win percentage the Alfa Romeo statistic is worthy because they won every race in 1950 they entered .

Hi there, I think that this edit https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/1191698802 Is warranted according to MOS:NUMERAL.
Here's my explanation of the same edit that Ive quoted from my talk page:
Changing "three" to "3" where I did was supported by this section of Mos:NUMERAL: "Comparable values nearby one another should be all spelled out or all in figures, even if one of the numbers would normally be written differently: patients' ages were five, seven, and thirty-two or ages were 5, 7, and 32, but not ages were five, seven, and 32." I made this change to match the way that the paragraph started. It started with numbers used for billion figures, then it used a spelled out "three" in contrast to how the paragraph started.

News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2024).
Hello Cerebral726,
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:

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.
