Talk:Pirin National Park/GA1
Adityavagarwal, you indicated on October 30 that you were taking over this review, yet you have not posted to it since. If you still plan to take it over, please let me know and/or start working on it over the next few days. (If you don't, then definitely let me know, and I'll put it back into the pool for a new reviewer; it's currently older than the oldest unreviewed nomination, so it shouldn't have to wait too terribly long for another reviewer to select it.) Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:02, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * BlueMoonset I apologize. I forgot about it. Let us get it done! :D Adityavagarwal (talk) 16:04, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

2017 Military Historian of the Year and Newcomer of the Year nominations and voting
As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer Newsletter
Hello, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update: Outreach and Invitations:
 * The new page backlog is currently at 12713 pages. Please consider reviewing even just a few pages each day! If everyone helps out, it will really put a dent in the backlog.
 * Currently the backlog stretches back to March and some pages in the backlog have passed the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing some of them!
 * If you know other editors with a good understanding of Wikipedia policy, invite them to join NPP by dropping the invitation template on their talk page with: . Adding more qualified reviewers will help with keeping the backlog manageable.

New Year New Page Review Drive
 * A backlog drive is planned for the start of the year, beginning on January 1st and running until the end of the month. Unique prizes will be given in tiers for both the total number of reviews made, as well as the longest 'streak' maintained.
 * Note: quality reviewing is extremely important, please do not sacrifice quality for quantity.

General project update: If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, go here. —  TonyBallioni (talk) 20:27, 12 December 2017 (UTC) 
 * ACTRIAL has resulted in a significant increase in the quality of new submissions, with noticeably fewer CSD, PROD, and BLPPROD candidates in the new page feed. However, the majority of the backlog still dates back to before ACTRIAL started, so consider reviewing articles from the middle or back of the backlog.
 * The NPP Browser can help you quickly find articles with topics that you prefer to review from within the backlog.
 * To keep up with the latest conversation on New Pages Patrol or to ask questions, you can go to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers and add it to your watchlist.

 * Keep improving those Pikas; they look so cute! Not to mention very tasty to us wolves, but way too small to be worth chasing. Happy editing! William Harris •   (talk) •  05:09, 23 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Lol, William Harris, thanks. At least they are small, so it might be better to chase larger animals. :P Adityavagarwal (talk) 08:44, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

 * There is a challenge going on related to Indian cinema (WikiProject India/The 1000 Challenge (Indian cinema)). Do let me know if you are interested in participating by pinging me, and then add your name to the challenge. There is no deadline for this challenge and any form of improvement (DYK, GA, A-class, FA, FL, article and list creation, article and list improvement) is accepted.  —  Ssven2  Looking at you, kid 08:53, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Ssven2. Signed up! :D Although it is half way through and I contribute more to mammals, I could try it. Also, I could review those in GA currently. Adityavagarwal (talk) 08:57, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
 * I suppose so. Your call. Do ask the nominators if you can review their nominations before taking it up though. Satya is up for GA.  —  Ssven2  Looking at you, kid 09:18, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Yeah, will surely ask before reviewing. :) Might as well take some help, as I am not very familiar with GAs of movies. Adityavagarwal (talk) 18:17, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Pirin National Park/GA1 redux
Adityavagarwal, I'm sorry to bother you again, but it's been three weeks since you last posted to this review, and three days later the nominator responded, yet you haven't been back since to continue. Please put this back on your radar until the review has been concluded. Thank you for giving it more attention going forward. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:05, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Apologies for the delay, BlueMoonset. Of course, do not think you are bothering me, as it has been a long time, and I should have gotten it complete. It is really rare of me not finishing any work taken up. Just got busy these days. Would be active in finishing this review! :) Adityavagarwal (talk) 18:21, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

New Years new page backlog drive
Hello, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Announcing the NPP New Year Backlog Drive!

We have done amazing work so far in December to reduce the New Pages Feed backlog by over 3000 articles! Now is the time to capitalise on our momentum and help eliminate the backlog!

The backlog drive will begin on January 1st and run until January 29th. Prize tiers and other info can be found HERE.

Awards will be given in tiers in two categories:


 * The total number of reviews completed for the month.
 * The minimum weekly total maintained for all four weeks of the backlog drive.

NOTE: It is extremely important that we focus on quality reviewing. Despite our goal of reducing the backlog as much as possible, please do not rush while reviewing.

If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, go here. — TonyBallioni (talk) 20:24, 30 December 2017 (UTC)

Merry Christmas and a Prosperous 2018!

 * Thanks a ton, Chris troutman! It is awesome. Adityavagarwal (talk) 14:57, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
