Week 8/Respond to Peer Review/ Rayray411
This week, I haven't received feedback from others. Therefore, I completed another peer review and the article is about trance music. Trance music is one of my favorite types of music and through the article, I had a more complete understanding of it. This is the link to the peer review: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Irisnan1009/Trance_music/Rayray411_Peer_Review?preload=Template%3ADashboard.wikiedu.org_peer_review. Meanwhile, I also added one more citation to the article. The article is about Staples Center in Los Angeles. This is the link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Staples_Center&diff=929702013&oldid=929479627. Rayray411 (talk) 17:25, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
 * , Great edits. Current. FULBERT (talk) 18:57, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Week 9/Moving your work to Wikipedia/ Rayray411
This week, I learned how to use the sandbox and how to move my work to Wikipedia. In my opinion, the sandbox is a useful tool to help us modify the article more successfully. Sometimes, there are many sections that I am willing to make contributions to. By using the sandbox, these changes can be held and it provides me more chances to do further modification. Rayray411 (talk) 17:38, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
 * , Current. FULBERT (talk) 18:57, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Week 10/Add an image/ Rayray411
This week, I learned how to add an image to the article. The article I edited is about Lebron James, a really famous superstar in the NBA. Adding an image contributes to a vivid description of the topic, which makes the article easier to read. During this procedure, I noticed that most images from the internet have their copyright and they are not allowed to be used without permission. Owing to Wikipedia, it provides me with many images that I can use so that I can complete it successfully. This is the link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=LeBron_James&diff=929696360&oldid=928978784. Rayray411 (talk) 17:57, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
 * , I saw your image was removed; did you understand what the reviewer stated as to the reason? FULBERT (talk) 18:58, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Week 11/Expand article/ Rayray411
This week, I chose to add one more image to expand my article. Adding an image creates a straight and vivid way to improve the overall understanding and makes the article more attractive. The article is about Staples Center and I added a panoramic view of the court which enables readers to have a better visual feeling. This is my second time to add an image to the article and this time, I did it more successfully. This is my link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Staples_Center&diff=929479627&oldid=929200985. Rayray411 (talk) 18:11, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
 * , Nice addition. FULBERT (talk) 18:59, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Week 12/Final article/ Rayray411
I reviewed the checklist and I have finished all of the work on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that everyone can read and edit. During this semester, basically, I have a good command of editing on Wikipedia. Whatsmore, I learned how to evaluate articles from a neutral point of view. When editing Wikipedia, I have to collect neutral facts from reliable resources and present them in a balanced way. Also, I learned to consider things from a critical perspective, which enables me to have a better choice when collecting data. In summary, doing the Wikipedia assignment benefits me a lot and I will continue to do this in the future. Rayray411 (talk) 02:13, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
 * , Thanks for sharing your thoughts here, and I hope you continue editing in the future. Let me know if you ever need assistance with it. FULBERT (talk) 18:59, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Week 10/Add image Update/Ygplusplus
Hellp, Professor. I add a picture for different article. The link is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Peet%27s_Coffee&type=revision&diff=929855167&oldid=927351133. I add the picture for peet's new prodcuts called New Golden Cold Brew Fog and New Golden Matcha Latte. Thank you so much. Ygplusplus (talk) 18:18, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

From evolution, I understand how to read a page from lead to media, I understand which points I should focus on and how to improve.

New Page Review newsletter December 2019


This year's Reviewer of the Year is. Having gotten the reviewer PERM in August 2018, they have been a regular reviewer of articles and redirects, been an active participant in the NPP community, and has been the driving force for the emerging NPP Source Guide that will help reviewers better evaluate sourcing and notability in many countries for which it has historically been difficult.
 * Reviewer of the Year

Special commendation again goes to who ends the year as one of our most prolific reviewers for the second consecutive year. Thanks also to and  who have been in the top 5 for the last two years as well.

Several newer editors have done a lot of work with CAPTAIN MEDUSA and DannyS712 (who has also written bots which have patrolled thousands of redirects) being new reviewers since this time last year.

Thanks to them and to everyone reading this who has participated in New Page Patrol this year.

(The top 100 reviewers of the year can be found here)

A recent Request for Comment on creating a new redirect autopatrol pseduo-permission was closed early. New Page Reviewers are now able to nominate editors who have an established track record creating uncontroversial redirects. At the individual discretion of any administrator or after 24 hours and a consensus of at least 3 New Page Reviewers an editor may be added to a list of users whose redirects will be patrolled automatically by.
 * Redirect autopatrol

Set to launch early in the new year is our first New Page Patrol Source Guide discussion. These discussions are designed to solicit input on sources in places and topic areas that might otherwise be harder for reviewers to evaluate. The hope is that this will allow us to improve the accuracy of our patrols for articles using these sources (and/or give us places to perform a WP:BEFORE prior to nominating for deletion). Please watch the New Page Patrol talk page for more information.
 * Source Guide Discussion

While New Page Reviewers are an experienced set of editors, we all benefit from an occasional review. This month consider refreshing yourself on Notability (geographic features). Also consider how we can take the time for quality in this area. For instance, sources to verify human settlements, which are presumed notable, can often be found in seconds. This lets us avoid the (ugly) 'Needs more refs' tag. Delivered by MediaWiki message delivery (talk) at 16:10, 20 December 2019 (UTC)

You were the 4th person who supported keeping the article, yet it was close as merged. It looks like your comment was overlooked. Most people opposed the merge. QuackGuru ( talk ) 10:52, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
