Why do think "known professionally as" is only allowed on that article. It doesn't. What's wrong with "better known by her stage name". SuperSuperSonic207 ( talk) 22:24, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- Because “known professionally as” is the standard lead-in for most pages about artists that use a stage name.
GraziePrego (
talk) 01:15, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah right. Not every article on rappers needs that term. You should know that "known professionally as" is not necessarily the lead-in term at all. It can be "better known by his/her stage name". But no you think that's not the lead in term. It sometimes is, not just "known professionally as". Your not making any sense at all.
SuperSuperSonic207 (

- What's the rationale for changing one to the other? You changed a series of articles from "known professionally as" to "better known by stage name", what's wrong with "known professionally as"?
GraziePrego (

- I see someone has already very eloquently communicated this to you:
- /info/en/?search=User_talk:CAMERAwMUSTACHE#Megan_Thee_Stallion
- @ CAMERAwMUSTACHE is 100% correct, you are the one making the change from how it was before, and it does not flow as well as "known professionally as". GraziePrego ( talk) 01:09, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- It just doesn't need to be said on every articles on rappers. That's all. And why do you think that "known professionally as" flows better than "better known by his/her stage name"? It doesn't necessarily. They both are similar terms and the latter isn't just about performing the stage. Can't you see I was trying to help you. BUT NO. WHENEVER I REWORD ANY RAPPER'S ARTICLES, YOUR ALWAYS GONNA DO THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN BECAUSE YOU THINK IT'S NOT WORTH SAYING "BETTER KNOWN BY HIS/HER STAGE NAME", ONLY "KNOWN PROFESSIONALLY AS". WHAT IS IT THAT YOU DON'T GET IT. HOW DOES "KNOWN PROFESSIONALLY AS" FLOWS BETTER THAN "BETTER KNOWN BY HIS/HER STAGE NAME? IT DOSEN'T.

Grace I've updated Ernest Pinkney's page as his direct descendant. He's my great great grandad. All of the information we jave added has been verified as we've done research into his life and career. I added it for the benefit of Wikipedia Users. Please can I appeal your action to remove it all? Sefton 2023 ( talk) 08:05, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- What you are describing is original research. See /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:No_original_research .
- Unless you can provide verifiable citations for all of your additions, the content cannot be added. Without those citations, it is impossible to tell whether the content you are adding is accurate. Anyone could claim to be his direct descendant.
- If you do have proper citations for the content that you can cite within the wikipedia page, then adding it is fine. GraziePrego ( talk) 08:08, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks Grace, all of what I've added is referenced in the University of Wolverhampton article written by my dad who has a degree in history: https://www.wlv.ac.uk/research/research-centres/centre-for-historical-research/football-and-war-network/football-and-war-blog/2023/the-football-and-war-story-of-the-ernest-pinkney-family/ and in terms of Ernest Pinkney's date of death. I can send you a picture of his headstone with this on if you can use this as evidence? Sefton 2023 ( talk) 08:12, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- Ive just uploaded the image of Ernie's headstone, so you can see his date of death. Its on Wikipedia Common - Ernest_Pinkney's_Headstone.jpg Sefton 2023 ( talk) 08:16, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- If there's content supported by that article, then go ahead and re-add it. Make sure you cite the article when you do so though :)
- The headstone could be added to the article in support of the death date too.
GraziePrego (
talk) 08:18, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- Brill, thanks Grace I'll re-upload Sefton 2023 ( talk) 08:19, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for vandal-patrolling! I see you have left some messages on user-talkpages when you undo their edits, which is nice. I think at least some of those editors will be confused by the date headers you used, as will other editors who come back to those talkpages if the vandalism continues. Dates like "11/9/23" are ambiguous, and definitely have the wrong meaning for most US readers. You mean "day/month/year" but others might read it as "month/day/year", or even "year/month/day". It's safer to write the month-name itself and the year as all four digits. DMacks ( talk) 04:37, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
- Good point thank you! Will do :) GraziePrego ( talk) 04:38, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for the The Helping Hand Barnstar award. As you already know, I hardly deserve it. I am pretty much an inexperienced editor also. Of course, at first I assumed that the editor ( Closer1616) was just a very annoying vandal, accidentally or purposefully messing up the article info-box. And thank you for catching his vandalism so quickly (twice). But when I realized (belatedly) that the editor indeed intended to name the person Reese Denny Alsop Gilder Palmer (after eventually overlooking the distracting formatting errors he accidentally made), I knew that the editor was the real thing (sincere), as this Palmer is a real person who also is indeed a great-grandson of Richard Watson Gilder (the subject of the article) and also a half brother (and second cousin simultaneously) of George Franklin Gilder (pretty much a famous author and economist, cofounder of the Discovery Institute think tank, and another great-grandson of Richard Watson Gilder). Like you, I realized that Closer1616 just happened to be a completely new (inexperienced) editor who did not know any of the rules or procedures -- whatsoever -- associated with WP. Closer1616 is also a great-grandson of Richard Watson Gilder. I felt that I had to apologize to him given the situation and my misunderstanding of it. Thanks again. -- L.Smithfield ( talk) 08:38, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
- You absolutely do deserve it! :) Thank you and happy editing. GraziePrego ( talk) 01:34, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
Hello, GraziePrego,
Please use Twinkle to tag pages for deletion and set up your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator". When you tag an article for a Proposed Deletion, you should state this in the edit summary and also post a notification on the talk page of the article creator. When you use Twinkle, it will take care of these steps for you. These are important steps in the deletion process so please become acquainted with Twinkle or, if you don't want to use this editing tool, please post these notices on the article creator's talk pages yourself and start leaving an informed edit summary.
If you have questions about Twinkle, you can bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 02:35, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you, that's much easier actually. GraziePrego ( talk) 03:43, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

I found a second review for this book; I think it’s notable based on 2 independent reviews. There’s also a Kirkus Review for which I didn’t add a link (yet). According to WP:RSNP, Kirkus reviews are reliable sources but with one specified exception do not establish notability (this book doesn’t meet the exception).
Thanks for all your work screening old articles for deletion. — A. B. ( talk • contribs • global count) 15:36, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
- Great work finding that review- I had a look myself but couldn’t see one, I ended up finding a very old version of the publisher’s website which was interesting though haha
- I agree that it now meets notability thanks to your improvement :) GraziePrego ( talk) 21:20, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
Hi,
You reported Draft:International Panel of Experts on Sustainable Food Systems as having copyright problems. I've looked into it and the source of the copying is under a compatible CC license so the only think needed was to add the appropriate attribution. As you declined the draft as a copyright violation, you may want to reevaluate it again without the issue of the copyright violation. -- Whpq ( talk) 20:54, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for looking into that- will do. GraziePrego ( talk) 23:56, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

- Hello GraziePrego, we need experienced volunteers.
- New Page Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles. We could use a few extra hands on deck if you think you can help.
- Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; Wikipedia needs experienced users to perform this task and there are precious few with the appropriate skills. Even a couple reviews a day can make a huge difference.
- Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision (if it looks daunting, don't worry, it basically boils down to checking CSD, notability, and title). If this looks like something that you can do, please consider joining us.
- If you would like to join the project and help out, please see the granting conditions. You can apply for the user-right HERE.
- If you have questions, please feel free to drop a message at the reviewer's discussion board.
- Cheers, and hope to see you around.

new page reviewer talk page or ask via the
NPP Discord. In addition, please remember:
- Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
- You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
- If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
- Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page, including checking for copyright violations using Earwig's copyright violation detector, checking for duplicate articles, and evaluating sources (both in the article, and if needed, via a Google search) for compliance with the general notability guideline.

On 16 February 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Monique Ryan, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Monique Ryan ran for election to the Parliament of Australia after seeing an advertisement in the newspaper calling for an independent candidate? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Monique Ryan. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Monique Ryan), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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, I was wondering if you would be able to to help in a splitting discussion by closing it and determining consensus as you are an uninvolved editor in the discussion. ( Talk:Premier of Victoria#Splitting proposal).

Concern regarding Draft:Banker Schools scandal
Hello, GraziePrego. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that
Draft:Banker Schools scandal, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months
may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please
edit it again or
request that it be moved to your userspace.
If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

 | Hi GraziePrego, I've begun working on the copy-edit you requested at the Guild of Copy Editors requests page for the article Anna Burke. Please feel free to contact me and to correct or revert my edits if necessary. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 21:28, 15 March 2024 (UTC) |
- Hi GraziePrego, I've partly reorganized the article; I rearranged the lede, partly rewritten it and organized it into chronological order. I've also moved the third para of "Early life", which is about Burke's early career, to "Career"; and the fourth, which is about her marriage and home life, to "Personal life". I've re-titled that section "Early life and education" because it includes both. I've also moved a {{
quotebox}} to the talk page; the quotation didn't seem important enough to include, and the
WP:MOS counsels against using pullquotes in articles (I consider quoteboxes to be a type of pullquote). The quotation could probably be integrated into the text or paraphrased. Anyway, good luck with the article. Cheers,

Hello, GraziePrego,
If you want to move an article from Draft space to take a page that is held by a main space Redirect, please, using Twinkle, select CSD>G6 Move and in the field, put the name of the draft article you want moved. This will create a live link so that patrolling admins can easily check it out and see whether or not it should be moved and the page deleted. I think your requests will get a faster response. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 01:21, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

- Hi GraziePrego, I've added a footnotes section to accommodate text that's germane but a bit off-topic here; that text being the definition of "teal independent". I also note the
lede section fails to fully summarize the article's main points so I've marked it with {{
Lede too short}}. Good luck with the article and cheers,

Hello GraziePrego,
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:
- You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
- Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
- To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Speedy deletion nomination of Alex Bhathal
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Alex Bhathal requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alexandra Kaur Bhathal. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. AusLondonder ( talk) 11:43, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
Nomination of Alex Bhathal for deletion
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alex Bhathal 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.AusLondonder ( talk) 14:04, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Why do think "known professionally as" is only allowed on that article. It doesn't. What's wrong with "better known by her stage name". SuperSuperSonic207 ( talk) 22:24, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- Because “known professionally as” is the standard lead-in for most pages about artists that use a stage name.
GraziePrego (
talk) 01:15, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah right. Not every article on rappers needs that term. You should know that "known professionally as" is not necessarily the lead-in term at all. It can be "better known by his/her stage name". But no you think that's not the lead in term. It sometimes is, not just "known professionally as". Your not making any sense at all.
SuperSuperSonic207 (

- I see someone has already very eloquently communicated this to you:
- /info/en/?search=User_talk:CAMERAwMUSTACHE#Megan_Thee_Stallion
- @ CAMERAwMUSTACHE is 100% correct, you are the one making the change from how it was before, and it does not flow as well as "known professionally as". GraziePrego ( talk) 01:09, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- It just doesn't need to be said on every articles on rappers. That's all. And why do you think that "known professionally as" flows better than "better known by his/her stage name"? It doesn't necessarily. They both are similar terms and the latter isn't just about performing the stage. Can't you see I was trying to help you. BUT NO. WHENEVER I REWORD ANY RAPPER'S ARTICLES, YOUR ALWAYS GONNA DO THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN BECAUSE YOU THINK IT'S NOT WORTH SAYING "BETTER KNOWN BY HIS/HER STAGE NAME", ONLY "KNOWN PROFESSIONALLY AS". WHAT IS IT THAT YOU DON'T GET IT. HOW DOES "KNOWN PROFESSIONALLY AS" FLOWS BETTER THAN "BETTER KNOWN BY HIS/HER STAGE NAME? IT DOSEN'T.

Grace I've updated Ernest Pinkney's page as his direct descendant. He's my great great grandad. All of the information we jave added has been verified as we've done research into his life and career. I added it for the benefit of Wikipedia Users. Please can I appeal your action to remove it all? Sefton 2023 ( talk) 08:05, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- What you are describing is original research. See /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:No_original_research .
- Unless you can provide verifiable citations for all of your additions, the content cannot be added. Without those citations, it is impossible to tell whether the content you are adding is accurate. Anyone could claim to be his direct descendant.
- If you do have proper citations for the content that you can cite within the wikipedia page, then adding it is fine. GraziePrego ( talk) 08:08, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks Grace, all of what I've added is referenced in the University of Wolverhampton article written by my dad who has a degree in history: https://www.wlv.ac.uk/research/research-centres/centre-for-historical-research/football-and-war-network/football-and-war-blog/2023/the-football-and-war-story-of-the-ernest-pinkney-family/ and in terms of Ernest Pinkney's date of death. I can send you a picture of his headstone with this on if you can use this as evidence? Sefton 2023 ( talk) 08:12, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

- The headstone could be added to the article in support of the death date too.

Thanks for vandal-patrolling! I see you have left some messages on user-talkpages when you undo their edits, which is nice. I think at least some of those editors will be confused by the date headers you used, as will other editors who come back to those talkpages if the vandalism continues. Dates like "11/9/23" are ambiguous, and definitely have the wrong meaning for most US readers. You mean "day/month/year" but others might read it as "month/day/year", or even "year/month/day". It's safer to write the month-name itself and the year as all four digits. DMacks ( talk) 04:37, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
- Good point thank you! Will do :) GraziePrego ( talk) 04:38, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for the The Helping Hand Barnstar award. As you already know, I hardly deserve it. I am pretty much an inexperienced editor also. Of course, at first I assumed that the editor ( Closer1616) was just a very annoying vandal, accidentally or purposefully messing up the article info-box. And thank you for catching his vandalism so quickly (twice). But when I realized (belatedly) that the editor indeed intended to name the person Reese Denny Alsop Gilder Palmer (after eventually overlooking the distracting formatting errors he accidentally made), I knew that the editor was the real thing (sincere), as this Palmer is a real person who also is indeed a great-grandson of Richard Watson Gilder (the subject of the article) and also a half brother (and second cousin simultaneously) of George Franklin Gilder (pretty much a famous author and economist, cofounder of the Discovery Institute think tank, and another great-grandson of Richard Watson Gilder). Like you, I realized that Closer1616 just happened to be a completely new (inexperienced) editor who did not know any of the rules or procedures -- whatsoever -- associated with WP. Closer1616 is also a great-grandson of Richard Watson Gilder. I felt that I had to apologize to him given the situation and my misunderstanding of it. Thanks again. -- L.Smithfield ( talk) 08:38, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello, GraziePrego,
Please use Twinkle to tag pages for deletion and set up your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator". When you tag an article for a Proposed Deletion, you should state this in the edit summary and also post a notification on the talk page of the article creator. When you use Twinkle, it will take care of these steps for you. These are important steps in the deletion process so please become acquainted with Twinkle or, if you don't want to use this editing tool, please post these notices on the article creator's talk pages yourself and start leaving an informed edit summary.
If you have questions about Twinkle, you can bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 02:35, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

I found a second review for this book; I think it’s notable based on 2 independent reviews. There’s also a Kirkus Review for which I didn’t add a link (yet). According to WP:RSNP, Kirkus reviews are reliable sources but with one specified exception do not establish notability (this book doesn’t meet the exception).
Thanks for all your work screening old articles for deletion. — A. B. ( talk • contribs • global count) 15:36, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi,
You reported Draft:International Panel of Experts on Sustainable Food Systems as having copyright problems. I've looked into it and the source of the copying is under a compatible CC license so the only think needed was to add the appropriate attribution. As you declined the draft as a copyright violation, you may want to reevaluate it again without the issue of the copyright violation. -- Whpq ( talk) 20:54, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

- Hello GraziePrego, we need experienced volunteers.
- New Page Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles. We could use a few extra hands on deck if you think you can help.
- Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; Wikipedia needs experienced users to perform this task and there are precious few with the appropriate skills. Even a couple reviews a day can make a huge difference.
- Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision (if it looks daunting, don't worry, it basically boils down to checking CSD, notability, and title). If this looks like something that you can do, please consider joining us.
- If you would like to join the project and help out, please see the granting conditions. You can apply for the user-right HERE.
- If you have questions, please feel free to drop a message at the reviewer's discussion board.
- Cheers, and hope to see you around.

Hi GraziePrego. 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:
- Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
- You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
- If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
- Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page, including checking for copyright violations using Earwig's copyright violation detector, checking for duplicate articles, and evaluating sources (both in the article, and if needed, via a Google search) for compliance with the general notability guideline.
- Please review some of our flowcharts ( 1, 2) to help ensure you don't forget any steps.
- Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.
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. signed, Rosguill talk 03:56, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi there, GraziePrego, and welcome to Women in Red. I see you have been an active participant at Women in Green since last October and have managed to bring the biographies of two Australian politicians up to GA. With Monique Ryan, it looks as if there will soon be one more. Now that you have joined us on Women in Red, you might be interested in creating new biographies in addition to improving existing articles. If so, you should find it useful to look through our Primer. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!-- Ipigott ( talk) 11:23, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

| Hi GraziePrego, I've begun working on the copy-edit you requested at the Guild of Copy Editors requests page for the article Anna Burke. Please feel free to contact me and to correct or revert my edits if necessary. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 21:28, 15 March 2024 (UTC) |
- Hi GraziePrego, I've partly reorganized the article; I rearranged the lede, partly rewritten it and organized it into chronological order. I've also moved the third para of "Early life", which is about Burke's early career, to "Career"; and the fourth, which is about her marriage and home life, to "Personal life". I've re-titled that section "Early life and education" because it includes both. I've also moved a {{
quotebox}} to the talk page; the quotation didn't seem important enough to include, and the
WP:MOS counsels against using pullquotes in articles (I consider quoteboxes to be a type of pullquote). The quotation could probably be integrated into the text or paraphrased. Anyway, good luck with the article. Cheers,

Hello, GraziePrego,
If you want to move an article from Draft space to take a page that is held by a main space Redirect, please, using Twinkle, select CSD>G6 Move and in the field, put the name of the draft article you want moved. This will create a live link so that patrolling admins can easily check it out and see whether or not it should be moved and the page deleted. I think your requests will get a faster response. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 01:21, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

- Hi GraziePrego, I've added a footnotes section to accommodate text that's germane but a bit off-topic here; that text being the definition of "teal independent". I also note the
lede section fails to fully summarize the article's main points so I've marked it with {{
Lede too short}}. Good luck with the article and cheers,

Hello GraziePrego,
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:
- You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
- Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
- To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Speedy deletion nomination of Alex Bhathal
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Alex Bhathal requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alexandra Kaur Bhathal. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
