Cooperation on propionyl vs propanoyl thing?
I started to revert some of your links only to realize that you have created a collection of articles have been created on some acid chlorides. Thank you for doing that. It is helpful to have this technical information widely available. What I wanted to do is suggest that you switch these titles to the terms like propionyl. Terms like propanoyl and ethanoyl are from a dialect inflicted by nonchemists on chemists. This is the way that chemists around the world talk about these things, otherwise the terminology rings weirdly. What do you think? I would be glad to return the favor by enhancing your newly hatched articles. --Smokefoot (talk) 14:37, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for the message. I decided to create articles on some simple acyl chlorides based on discussion with a current late high-school chemistry student about what they had had trouble learning recently. In preparation for starting these articles, I looked at current textbooks in use on a range of science courses and I can't see much use of the term "propionyl"; "propanoyl" is the term in every textbook I saw and it's used by every source I've cited. So I think it makes sense to use the systematic name to be in tune with the needs and expectations of modern readership. Hope that's OK. Blythwood (talk) 19:31, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Deprodding of Fairfax (typeface)
I have removed the tag from Fairfax (typeface), which you proposed for deletion. This is because it was prodded in the past and contested. Instead, I have started a deletion discussion at WP:Articles for deletion/Fairfax (typeface), which you may comment on. I have explained my reasons for doing so there. Thanks! -KAP03(Talk &bull;&#32;Contributions &bull;&#32;Email) 20:26, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Archive this page
Hello. It appears your talk page is becoming quite lengthy and is in need of archiving. According to Wikipedia's user talk page guidelines; "Large talk pages become difficult to read, strain the limits of older browsers, and load slowly over slow internet connections. As a rule of thumb, archive closed discussions when a talk page exceeds 75 KB or has multiple resolved or stale discussions." - this talk page is KB. See Help:Archiving a talk page for instructions on how to manually archive your talk page, or to arrange for automatic archiving using a bot. If you have any questions, place a notice on your talk page, or go to the help desk. Thank you. -KAP03(Talk &bull;&#32;Contributions &bull;&#32;Email) 20:26, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

I have unreviewed a page you curated
Thanks for reviewing Sigma 30mm f/2.8 DN Art, Blythwood.

Unfortunately Usernamekiran has just gone over this page again and unreviewed it. Their note is:

"The product fails WP:GNG, but passes WP:MILL, and WP:ENN."

To reply, leave a comment on Usernamekiran's talk page.

Typeface
I am not an expert on typefaces, I just noted there were many in the introductions cats without further subcategorization. This is especially true in the later ers, circa 1980s. At present, I think the subcats should continue as they are simply being moved from "introductions" to "typface and font introductions". If it is true that the dates on individuals typefaces are taken off due to uncertainty, we can remove those specific ones. Perhaps add decade subcats for typrefaces and fonts that we know generally began during a certain period but not a particular year?--Bellerophon5685 (talk) 04:39, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

Does this fix the problem? Having it be "introduced" in the 1930s? If it is a range of dates, wouldn't that cover any of these sorts of ambiguities?

Hello, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update: Technology update:
 * The new page backlog is currently at 18,511 pages. We have worked hard to decrease from over 22,000, but more hard work is needed! Please consider reviewing even just a few pages a a day.
 * Some editors are committing to work specifically on patrolling new pages on 15 July. If you have not reviewed new pages in a while, this might be a good time to be involved. Please remember that quality of patrolling is more important than quantity, that the speedy deletion criteria should be followed strictly, and that ovetagging for minor issues should be avoided.
 * Several requests have been put into Phabractor to increase usability of the New Pages Feed and the Page Curation toolbar. For more details or to suggest improvements go to Page Curation/Suggested improvements
 * The tutorial has been updated to include links to the following useful userscripts. If you were not aware of them, they could be useful in your efforts reviewing new pages:
 * User:Lourdes/PageCuration.js adds a link to the new pages feed and page curation toolbar to your top toolbar on Wikipedia
 * User:The Earwig/copyvios.js adds a link in your side toolbox that will run the current page through

General project update:
 * Following discussion at Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers, New pages patrol/Noticeboard has been marked as historical. Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers is currently the most active central discussion forum for the New Page Patrol project. To keep up to date on the most recent discussions you can add it to your watchlist or visit it periodically.
