Ar you sure about your template? I was quickly looking at it and it looks to me there is enough at least for a standard deletion procedure.-- Alexmar983 ( talk) 14:10, 23 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi, what do you mean by a "standard deletion procedure"? Do you mean a prod, or an AFD, or a different speedy deletion criteria? OnionRing ( talk) 14:11, 23 May 2016 (UTC) reply

sorry I am not a super experct of deletions in enwiki (on itwiki, frwiki and dewiki I am, but not here). If you use "slang" without links I am not 99% sure, but I guess it is what is called an "Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion", I had that in mind. I've left a small message in Talk:André Laug (company).-- Alexmar983 ( talk) 14:28, 23 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Apologies for my use of slang. Yes, by "prod or AFD" I meant WP:Proposed deletion or an Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion. If it were merely a question of notability, then yes an AFD would be appropriate, but the article is blatant WP:SPAM, so speedy deletion is the better choice. OnionRing ( talk) 14:35, 23 May 2016 (UTC) reply

that's no spam. It is a description. If you want to reduce some part, help yourself, I am starting to read it, but a deletion is too hard. -- Alexmar983 ( talk) 14:41, 23 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Perhaps it's hard to detect for someone whose second language is English: I would find spam difficult to detect in French or Spanish, certainly. But the whole article needs a rewrite, per WP:CSF#G11. OnionRing ( talk) 14:44, 23 May 2016 (UTC) reply

First off, thanks for the editing. It's my first article and I have a few questions.

1: There is information that is cited in the sources, but is factually incorrect. However, there are no good sources to back up the correct version. The most technical information available is from a reddit thread. Is there anything I can do?

2: I reverted the removal of the Speculation as to the gun's origin section, sourced it (I finally figured out how to do inline citations) and edited it to follow WP:BLP. Is this acceptable, or is the problem larger than I thought?

Thanks again Astor Thrope ( talk) 16:05, 27 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi. The source looks good for that last section. Regarding the problem with incorrect info in sources, how do we know that they're incorrect? We need to be able to WP:VERIFY any contentious claims, and unfortunately personal knowledge is considered WP:Original research which is not allowed on Wikipedia. Reddit is also not considered to be a WP:Reliable source. So we have to stick with what we can verify for now. Thanks, OnionRing ( talk) 16:13, 27 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Glad the last section is good. As for the problem with incorrect information, there isn't anything too glaring. There that could be said that is left off, and only really one thing that is flat out untrue (the gun doesn't take Uzi mags, they just look a lot like Uzi mags). I'm not sure if I should leave it as is or remove the reference to it using Uzi mags, especially considering that the only source to the contrary is personal knowledge. I'm leaving it as is for now, but it just sorta bothers me that it's wrong. Astor Thrope ( talk) 19:39, 27 May 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Aftermath (Muse) a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Aftermath (Muse song). This is known as a " cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. — Diannaa ( talk) 22:34, 3 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi. I am autoconfirmed, but as I'm not an admin I couldn't move the new article over the 2-edit redirect. Yes, I could have requested the non-controversial move at RFM, but since I was merging a brand new article to a redirect, there was no edit history lost, and I credited the new article in my edit summary. It was a case of WP:BOLD. If that's a problem, then feel free to revert and insist I do an RFM. But I can't really see the point in this case. I have no other similar moves in my edit history, so no need for a RFHM either. OnionRing ( talk) 23:37, 3 June 2016 (UTC) reply

I already undid your cut n paste move and moved the page properly. Please don't take shortcuts of this kind. Here's a better shortcut: Let me know on my talk page and I will promptly move the page for you. — Diannaa ( talk) 21:11, 4 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi

Sorry I do not know how to respond via Wikipedia - I have spent the day repurposing it and adding more citations and removing bias - I posted on Reddit to see what sort of response the piece would get - I do think you are being quite presumptuous, as you will note I have painstakingly gone through the piece to ensure everything is corroborated and added the correct references.

I did not respond to you because I dont know how to navigate Wikipedia as yet and have only worked it out now - I thought your offer was very generous I just didnt know how to take you up on it.

Please dont think I have an agenda except to ensure there is a profile for Brendan Dassey in its own right on Wikipedia, Redditt is a rabbit hole and I put it up for response nothing more.

Hello there, OnionRing. Thank you for your feedback on my first article here in Wikipedia - Humberto Silva.

I'm here to respond to your claim that my article has a conflict of interest, because I may be related in some way with the person in which the article is about. I understand the reason that leads you to think it, probably because of my username includes a lastname that is the same as the person of the article, that lastname being Silva. But that lastname is maybe one of the most common name in Brazil and, both me and the person who I wrote the article about, are from that same country. But that's the only related thing that I have in common with the person of the article. I repeat, I'm not related with the person Humberto Silva in any manner, we are simply from the same country and share a very common lastname.

Again I appreciate your review and feedback on my article, I'm very much open for more discussion that can lead me to became a better Wikipedian! Julio.frasneli.silva ( talk) 17:09, 8 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Hello.I'm glad to hear you have no connection to Mr Silva, but it wasn't on the basis of the surname alone than I guessed a conflict of interest: the tone of the article is highly promotional throughout, and there are several unsourced claims.

Hi there, I've noticed you tagging new articles as CSD:A7 within about a minute of them having being created, in the future try to give the such pages around 10 minutes before tagging and also please make a background check of the article for notability. In the instance of /info/en/?search=MuhammadAliChudry for example, the person is indeed notable and has their own wikipedia page already which you can find here /info/en/?search=Chaudhry_Muhammad_Ali, this would make the page you tagged as A7 more appropriately an A10 (Duplicate page). In any case this is just a heads up to do a quick google search of any article you're about to tag regardless of how little content there is, obviously I do not count attack pages or blatant hoaxes in these situations, tag those immediately if you find them (G10 and G3).

Hello, OnionRing! Thanks so much for the message. This is the first time I've contributed to Wikipedia so I apologize for my ignorance! Just wanted to follow up with a couple questions: I do have a conflict of interest as a member of the band (although the username is intended to represent myself as an individual rather than the band as an organization), is there any way for the text to be reviewed by a third party like yourself to ensure that it's not "whitewashing" or "promotional" or otherwise in violation of guidelines?

My primary reason for writing the article this morning was to clear up confusion between "The Mallett Brothers Band" and my father David Mallett, who has an existing wikipedia page, due to a recent unexplained increase in the number of older folks showing up to our shows thinking they were seeing our father... a quandary for us, him and them.

Let me know if there's any way to clear that up; I do work for The Mallett Brothers Band, for full disclosure; but if there's any way an editor could check the text out or find another solution that would work without violating any guidelines, that would be amazing; otherwise, I totally understand the policy, no worries at all and thanks again.

Wdmallett ( talk) 17:54, 15 June 2016 (UTC) reply

There's nothing overly promotional in the article at the moment, but I would suggest that you avoid editing the article further. Let someone unconnected with your band do it. If you're notable, they will eventually. Thanks, OnionRing ( talk) 17:58, 15 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi OnionRing! Yes I did create an identical account under the name Srabonti Narmin Ali, but I realized later that the spelling of the latter was mistaken. If we could keep the page for Srabonti Narmeen Ali, and delete the other Srabonti Narmin Ali, that would be great. As for the references, I added two links at the bottom but was unable to create a separate References section. Sorry I am new to Wikipedia and trying to get a hang of this thing. You could edit it if you like and add in a References section with the two links I posted. Let me know what I need to do. Thanks.

@ Xx236: No, you have it completely backwards. I removed a db-nocontext added by a trigger-happy NPP to a new article which was completely clear about its subject. It's an unreferenced one-line stub, but rather than whine at me on my talk page about how it's "one of the worst pages in this Wikipedia", did it occur to you to Google for it? The first article returned says that it's one of the most important sites in Iran for an endemic species. If the creator's writing autobiographies, then deal with that separately.

I have a copy of both articles there are way much more change than that. this is just a small change I did earlier so the page won't be promotional at all, I can assure you that if you have read the first article and this article you would notice a huge change.

I see several CSD's relating to South Australian Railways. On one hand, these might be a little premature, as the editor just started working on them today. On the other hand, I am firmly of the belief that while we use to allow "under construction" and mainspace years ago, that's no longer accepted practice especially given the existence of draft space.

One option is to contact the editor note that they should not be creating articles this way, urged them to start such articles in draft space and only move them into mainspace when they are far enough along to meet our standards.

In some cases, it might be polite to offer to move these incomplete articles to draft space for them, although I'll understand if you think it would be less work to blow them away and urged the editors to start over.

This is a new editor's would like to approach the editor in a positive way. What do you think?-- S Philbrick (Talk) 15:23, 21 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi OnionRing. Thanks for G4-tagging Shylaja Chetlur. We have a little script, User:Writ Keeper/Scripts/deletionFinder.js, that checks to see if a page has been previously deleted or discussed at AfD; if it has, deletionFinder.js provides links to the deletion log and/or AfDs to the right of the article title. Install it by adding the following to your common.js or your skin script file: {{ subst:js|User:Writ Keeper/Scripts/deletionFinder.js}}, save and bypass your browser cache. For an example go to Emil Nielsen where, to the right of the article title, you see the blue prev dels and prev AfDs links when the script has been been loaded.

Hello, OnionRing, I placed an "excessively long quote" at the end of the music video table for the article I created titled, Prisoner (Steve Angello song). Obviously, you recognized the "excessively long quote," and purged it from the page. Well that "excessively long quote" was there for a reason, otherwise, it presumably would not have been placed there. That "excessively long quote" was used to help divulge the music video's description, while simultaneously, it also provided information as to when, where and how the video's concept was conceived and created. By now, you should already know that Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia, not a concise summary to some book; and therefore no information, not even a "quote," is too "excessive." Removing an informative quote for being too "excessive," is, I believe, superfluous, and ultimately childish. Here on Wikipedia, I've seen an abundance of "excessive" quotes. In fact, I've even seen excessively "excessive" quotes. But nevertheless, I did not see those quotes be withdrawn from their page, nor did I see someone else, someone like you so to speak, remove them from their page. Therefore I give birth to this question in its partially informal context: isn't there someone else's page to "edit" for having a quote that's too "excessive" within them ??? Because like I stated before, I've seen many "excessive" quotes in other articles that are not being removed. To culminate this letter, I say to you: I do not appreciate your judgemental edit to the Prisoner (Steve Angello song) article that I created. Though, I would appreciate it if you would return the quote to the page you found it in, regardless of your overall opinion of the quote. Thank you. Sincerely, Infopage100 Infopage100 ( talk) 09:12, 24 June 2016 (UTC) User:Infopage100 Infopage100 ( talk) 09:12, 24 June 2016 (UTC) reply

It's neither childish nor judgmental, it's a matter of editorial policy, as noted at WP:LONGQUOTE. It was about a quarter of the article, and also mildly promotional: better for the article to be written from a WP:Neutral point of view than to give the song's author free reign to talk about how important the song is. A concise summary of that quote, referenced, is still a good idea though. Thanks, OnionRing ( talk) 10:35, 24 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Fine......... ē_ē. I guess that sounds like a good idea. You could have done that though instead of deleting the whole entire quote. :/ Infopage100 ( talk) 00:23, 25 June 2016 (UTC)Infopage100 Infopage100 ( talk) 00:23, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

And indeed I would have, if you'd referenced it. I see the article is still mostly unreferenced, with no indication of how the song is notable per WP:NSONG. OnionRing ( talk) 12:05, 25 June 2016 (UTC) reply

Though.... how does clarifying a song's importance breach the system of NPOV??? I'm not necessarily taking to one side of the story, I'm simply putting out "neutral" information.

Clarifying a song's importance needn't breach the guidelines for WP:NPOV. But as I wrote above, the artist isn't the most objective person for the task. WP:NSONG describes the right ways to show how a song is notable: multiple, WP:Secondary coverage in WP:Reliable sources, evidence that the song charted, etc.

Hello Natasha. I'm sure your intentions are the very best, but the language of the article is not quite written from a WP:Neutral point of view, which along with the large amount of detail does indeed make the encyclopaedia article resemble a fan page or a music magazine article.

With great reluctance, I have declined your speedy deletion nomination of Etika, and substituted a WP:PROD. You said that it duplicated the article Ethics, but one is about the philosophical concept ethics, while the other is about a word which is used to refer to that concept, and the word "etika" is not even mentioned in the article Ethics, nor should it be. In my opinion we should have a speedy deletion criterion which covers articles of this sort, but we don't, so we'll just have to let the article linger for a week until the PROD to expires, I'm afraid.

Actually I think it now does. There were several references added since it was last declined that are independent from the subject and cover it in more depth. I have never been involved in the AfC process preferring to get involved after articles make it to article space but in this case I am quite surprised it was returned to draft.

Hm, I only diffed it from the last submission. You're right, it could have been accepted on the basis of the secondary sources added since it was moved to draft. Thanks, OnionRing ( talk) 15:41, 4 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Thank you for your input OnionRing and PRehse. So what happens next? Do you have the ability to approve the article? How about LaMona or Dodger67 who were the last ones to decline the article? Can they approve the article now that is has been updated? Thank you all for your help by they way. I appreciate your patience. Nihon-no-budo ( talk) 17:38, 4 July 2016 (UTC) reply

I'm not an administrator and I don't normally do draft reviews. But I see on the draft page that it's already been submitted for review again, so I assume that should happen relatively quickly. If I can make that happen quicker, perhaps @ PRehse: can suggest how, as I'm new to reviewing. OnionRing ( talk) 17:45, 4 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Just want to thank you for your copyvio hunts. Really important work. It should be new pages patrollers' first inquiry but so often it's not even considered (even when absurdly obvious). By the way, I partially declined your tagging of PUPHAM-RCG. Schools are exempted from A7. Best regards-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 16:58, 4 July 2016 (UTC) reply

That's very kind of you to say, thanks. A7 for PUPHAM-RCG was a bit of a gray area: it's a training centre, not quite a school. But that grayness means that you were as right to take it off as I was to add it. :-) OnionRing ( talk) 17:02, 4 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Hello, I'm Fluckollin. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, so i edited the page as per my view and tried to be as neutral as possible. It is a page regarding a public place which was not there on Wikipedia, so I started it. Every new page mostly have view of the person who start it, and then when other people edit it, it comes to neutral view point. So As per me if you don’t like it you should edit it and not delete other peoples work. Thank you and I would like to know problem in the page so I can edit it. Thank you again.

I have deleted the overtly promotional content, most of which was either unreferenced or referenced only by tourism promotion websites. As it stands now, the page is no longer promotional, but please stick to a WP:Neutral point of view: subjective terms like "beautiful", "one of the most famous", etc. are a matter of opinion.

Dear OnionRing,

It is nice seeing someone so active on Wikipedia and especially on Uhuru Mobile and Flyve MDM pages.

First, let me explain you the situation: Flyve MDM is a new product and Uhuru Mobile is developed by a new Editor.

Concerning Flyve MDM, the source codes will be released only in autumn : this is why its Wikipedia page is an orphan, relies on upon a single source and on primary sources. Once the codes would be released, those issues will be corrected. Indeed, more references will be added and more contributor will participate to the Wikipedia page.

Then, when we have written the article we stayed neutral by writing only facts and by describing features. Can you explain us what content is considered as an advertisement on both pages?

We will be glad to modify our content (we already did it for Flyve MDM) if the problems are clearly identified. Can you help us ? Teclib-Edition ( talk) 10:31, 5 July 2016 (UTC) ( Teclib-Edition) reply

Who is "we", please? Are you operating the account on behalf of a group? And have you read WP:Conflict of interest yet? The articles you've created are highly promotional for your company's products, and are likely to get deleted for that reason. OnionRing ( talk) 10:35, 5 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Dear OnionRing,

“We” is a community of contributors working on open source solutions. We have read WP:Conflict of interest, COI is strongly discouraged and yet not forbidden. Someone has to create the article before any contributors can participate in the content’s redaction/modification. If the content is highly promotional, show us what is bothering you, I am sure we can rephrase the sentences while explaining what the software are about. Teclib-Edition ( talk) 11:21, 5 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Setareh Malek ( talk) 12:39, 7 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi, and you're very welcome for the help. The problem is that the article needs WP:Reliable sources to show how he's notable. Blogs aren't considered reliable sources for this, so what's needed is newspaper articles, book references, maybe a television clip if you can find that online, and so on. It doesn't have to be in English - Farsi or any language is fine. I have dug around online, and can't find much. Perhaps it's too early in his career for an article. But best of luck to you, and to Mr. Aghdasi. Thanks, OnionRing ( talk) 12:45, 7 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Im so grateful for your help , thanks. Yes I can show you lots of his video on TV,(Iran television) including his reviews and performance (specially in Khandevane which is a very popular show in Iran) And I can name many newspaper and magazines that interview with him, but I don't know how should I link newspapers and videos in Wikipedia? For newspapers is that OK if I just name them and write date? Setareh Malek ( talk) 13:39, 7 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Online is best, but if you only have access to the article on paper, then just write down the name and date. If you're not sure how to do it, then just put it in the "External links" section for now, and we'll work out how to turn it into a reference later.

Hi OnionRing, I've one-upped your prod template, and requested speedy deletion. The article began as a cut and paste of articles about other bands--there's never been anything substantive there to suggest notability. Cheers, 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 ( talk) 14:45, 7 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi, yeah I looked at the history before prodding - clearly the reason it wasn't speedied on creation was that the cut & paste slipped past the NPP. The creator of Guilherme wolf tried the same technique yesterday, so it went from db-a10, to draft (upon request for more time at the talk page), then recreation of the actual article about him, to db-a7. It's been re-created again today. The reason I prodded rather than speedied is that it's been around so long, that admins prefer to prod or AFD (or redirect etc.) The COI creator has long since ceased editing from their giveaway corporate account name. Same editor, new account? Maybe. OnionRing ( talk) 14:53, 7 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Marlene718 ( talk) 00:24, 8 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Hi, Marlene. The Christopher Hoban article is looking good, and don't worry about that weird message you got. It was just an automatic program called XLinkBot that reverts an edit if editors try to add a reference that's on its list of bad sources for references. In your case, it was YouTube. There's nothing wrong with YouTube on its own, but it's usually not a WP:Reliable source. XLinkBot would have done the same if you'd tried to use Facebook as a reference. But one of my many rules in life is "never worry about offending a robot." :-) OnionRing ( talk) 04:30, 8 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Just wanted to update you on the progress of the Ryushin Shouchi Ryu entry. Last night it was rejected again for lack of sources, so I decided delete the contents of the draft and rewrite it. I realized that the entry contained two biographies of LIVING instructors, which of course, by wiki standards requires an extreme about of references (learned this with the Nakajima Hiroyuki entry last week). Now the entry only includes some history of the Tenshinsho Jigen Ryu (which I edited (rewrote) earlier this week) and of course history on the Ryushin Shouch Ryu. It has been up overnight and I hope it stays up, its been quite the roller coaster ride. I would like to think you again for your help and guidance through this process.

. The content should be the same, but just in English. Because of this I edit the page, which wasn‘t according to your policy. If it is need you can delete this page, because some of information is not correct to Wikipedia policy. Then if everything is ok, she will create the new page with right content (the same as in Bulgarian). The information is not advertisement, this is international contest for all students. Not to be recognized as advertisement we want to remove the name of Isover from title and Saint-Gobain from text. The information is so helpful for all students worldwide and is encyclopedic. The references is from different articles and news published in many countries. So the contest is of global importance.

Hi Onion ring

I am contacting you regarding the page called "ayesha nazir jatt". It was created and deleted 3 months ago. She contested election on 31st of August where she was contesting against current government. As a result it was a very biased election even though majority of people voted for her. She still lost the election with a very small margin. She exposed the rigging which took place in election by collecting evidence which including seals, ballot papers as well as a video was provided when the votes where being changed in presence of returning officer and other candidate. She held press conference along with other party leaders for exposing the rigging and appearing in talk shows to discuss the case. She demanded recount of votes but they rejected her application because returning officer was also involved in rigging process.

I hope you feel she deserves to be on wiki now. I will update the story further on her page if you allow it to be published.

Few links which may help you to make a decision:

Hello OnionRing.

Based on the patrols you made of new pages during a qualifying period in 2016, your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed.

New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at page reviewer talk.

• Be nice to new users - they are often not aware of doing anything wrong.
• You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not.
• Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer.
• Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 01:34, 19 November 2016 (UTC) reply

Hello OnionRing,

Much has happened since the last newsletter over two months ago. The open letter finished with 444 signatures. The letter was sent to several dozen people at the WMF, and we have heard that it is being discussed but there has been no official reply. A related article appears in the current issue of The Signpost. If you haven't seen it, you should, including the readers' comment section.

Awards: Barnstars were given for the past several years (thanks to MPGuy2824), and we are now all caught up. The 2021 cup went to John B123 for leading with 26,525 article reviews during 2021. To encourage moderate activity, a new "Iron" level barnstar is awarded annually for reviewing 360 articles ("one-a-day"), and 100 reviews earns the "Standard" NPP barnstar. About 90 reviewers received barnstars for each of the years 2018 to 2021 (including the new awards that were given retroactively). All awards issued for every year are listed on the Awards page. Check out the new Hall of Fame also.

Software news: Novem Linguae and MPGuy2824 have connected with WMF developers who can review and approve patches, so they have been able to fix some bugs, and make other improvements to the Page Curation software. You can see everything that has been fixed recently here. The reviewer report has also been improved.

Suggestions:

• There is much enthusiasm over the low backlog, but remember that the "quality and depth of patrolling are more important than speed".
• Reminder: an article should not be tagged for any kind of deletion for a minimum of 15 minutes after creation and it is often appropriate to wait an hour or more. (from the NPP tutorial)
• Reviewers should focus their effort where it can do the most good, reviewing articles. Other clean-up tasks that don't require advanced permissions can be left to other editors that routinely improve articles in these ways (creating Talk Pages, specifying projects and ratings, adding categories, etc.) Let's rely on others when it makes the most sense. On the other hand, if you enjoy doing these tasks while reviewing and it keeps you engaged with NPP (or are guiding a newcomer), then by all means continue.

Saving the best for last: From a July low of 8,500, the backlog climbed back to 11,000 in August and then reversed in September dropping to below 6,000 and continued falling with the October backlog drive to under 1,000, a level not seen in over four years. Keep in mind that there are 2,000 new articles every week, so the number of reviews is far higher than the backlog reduction. To keep the backlog under a thousand, we have to keep reviewing at about half the recent rate!

New Page Patrol | May 2023 Backlog Drive
On 1 May, a one-month backlog drive for New Page Patrol will begin. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of redirects patrolled and for maintaining a streak throughout the drive. Article patrolling is not part of the drive. Sign up here! There is a possibility that the drive may not run if there are <20 registered participants. Participants will be notified if this is the case.
