File:La finta savia.jpg
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Balalaika
Hey, I noticed you renamed an article to Balalaika (Koharu Kusumi song) with the rationale that it is also the name of a song by Ilanit. Can you explain more on why? The song by Ilanit doesn't have its own article and currently Balalaika (song) is only a redirect. lullabying (talk) 18:43, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Also, even though Koharu Kusumi sings the song, she is credited under the name "Kirari Tsukishima" and the song is for Kirarin Revolution. lullabying (talk) 18:45, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I was thinking to develop content about Israel's 1984 Eurovision entry, but I didn't so removed the singer name on the Japanese song. In ictu oculi (talk) 21:38, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Once you create the article about that song, I think it would be appropriate to use as a redirect. But for now, I think it's more appropriate to leave it as "Balalaika (song)" and I noticed you moved it back. Thanks. lullabying (talk) 22:48, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Ensure Insurance.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Ensure Insurance.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Proposed renaming of Nantucket
Hi, please be advised that there is a proposal to move the Nantucket article back to "Nantucket, Massachusetts" at Talk:Nantucket. Note that the current name was determined by consensus a year ago at Talk:Nantucket. HopsonRoad (talk) 00:46, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

I request your input at Wikipedia talk:Article size, section Does this project page regulate size of lists / maximum size non-prose Wikipedia articles?
In icti oculi,

I have seen you edit and administrate around Wikipedia, and have respected your opinion and judgment. I have been having a discussion on article and list size at Talk:List of 2017 albums with User:Onetwothreeip, and it got to the point where it became unproductive, so I decided to try for a broader group discussion, which I took to Wikipedia talk:Article size and laid out my argument.

What I really want from you is for you and those who set Wikipedia policy to join in the discussion and provide a wiser and hopefully broader opinion than mine, and to see if there is a consensus among Wikipedians about maximum list size.

Thank you. Mburrell (talk) 05:35, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ed Wynne (saxophonist)
Hello In ictu oculi,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Ed Wynne (saxophonist) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion], but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Britishfinance (talk) 01:29, 16 January 2019 (UTC) = Is/was test ==

What do you make of Bulkington with that test? There is Bulkington, Warwickshire, Bulkington, Wiltshire, Bulkington Pass, a character, Moby Dick (1998 miniseries) and Louis Phillips (author) (maybe the same as one of the last 2). Although I'm not convinced its useful for Willingale (since the people referenced there appear to have been refereed to to with their first name at the beginning) it seems in this case that since we have at least 2 uses of "Bulkington" and more without articles and the pass that maybe we should have a DAB.

RfC discussion on List of 2017 articles that is really about proper use of Wikipedia:Article size. Requesting your time because I think a guideline is being misused
Please, I need your input. I know I asked earlier and you did not provide feedback, but I am worried about the actions of two editors.

There is a conversation about splitting an article because of its size, but I don’t care which way you would vote on if it should be split or not. My issue is that the other editor and a companion-in-arms are misusing, mistranslating Article size. These two are reducing the size of the largest articles in Wikipedia, which sounds like a noble goal, but when I asked what limit there should be on an article size, the response was 100 kB characters. The Wiki-guideline does state that readable prose should be less than 100 kB, but readable prose is the article minus citations, lists, tables, footnotes, and images, so I find the interpretation dangerous. The other editor said to get articles down in size, a yearly list could be cut down in half, in quarters, or even monthly. I cannot picture the easy usage of lists that is divided by month for multiple years. The guideline mostly states lists and tables are excluded from the guideline, so my objection to the split is that there is no justification except a misused guideline.

Basically, I think these two editors are going beyond being useful in improving Wikipedia and are moving into damaging Wikipedia, so I would like you to come to Talk:List of 2017 albums, read the discussions in the two section above it, especially Talk:List of 2017 albums, and provide feedback. I do not care if you say split or oppose, but to me the discussion is not about the split but the misuse of the Article Size guideline, and I want your and others I respect feedback on the conversation and the proper use of the guideline.

NPR Newsletter No.17


Hello ,


 * News
 * The WMF has announced that Google Translate is now available for translating articles through the content translation tool. This may result in an increase in machine translated articles in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to use the tag and gently remind (or inform) editors that translations from other language Wikipedia pages still require attribution per WP:TFOLWP.


 * Discussions of interest
 * Two elements of CSD G6 have been split into their own criteria: R4 for redirects in the "File:" namespace with the same name as a file or redirect at Wikimedia Commons (Discussion), and G14 for disambiguation pages which disambiguate zero pages, or have "(disambiguation)" in the title but disambiguate a single page (Discussion).
 * db-blankdraft was merged into G13 (Discussion)
 * A discussion recently closed with no consensus on whether to create a subject-specific notability guideline for theatrical plays.
 * There is an ongoing discussion on a proposal to create subject-specific notability guidelines for chemicals and organism taxa.


 * Reminders
 * NPR is not a binary keep / delete process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The deletion policy and its associated guideline clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See a classic example of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the R template index. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD  because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them.


 * NPP Tools Report
 * Superlinks – allows you to check an article's history, logs, talk page, NPP flowchart (on unpatrolled pages) and more without navigating away from the article itself.
 * copyvio-check – automatically checks the copyvio percentage of new pages in the background and displays this info with a link to the report in the 'info' panel of the Page curation toolbar.
 * The NPP flowchart now has clickable hyperlinks.

Cleanup of dab pages
You make some beneficial changes to Iris a few days ago, but also several damaging ones, among them:
 * You left the page with a broken header, with an extra equals sign floating.
 * You made "Fictional entities" a sub-head of "Film and television", which it is not - many of those entries are not from film and TV; the point of a "fictional entities" subsection is for entries that span different types of media.
 * You put Iris (mythology) under people. There is a long-standing consensus not to list fictional and mythical beings with real people.
 * Hatnotes are valuable when there are entries that might be found in multiple sections; don't remove them without good reason.
 * Sections and subsections should be in alphabetical order unless there is a good reason to do otherwise. The page is supposed to help people find the article they want easily.

I've left you a message once before about being more careful with your large dab edits. We have a guideline and supplement to help.

In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. © Tb hotch ™ (en-2.5). 21:29, 12 May 2019 (UTC)

Possible editing error
It looks like the first part of this edit at Talk:San Felipe de Jesús might some sort of copy-paste error, or it needs a signature. I'm going to apply the unsigned2 template to it so that it has a signature. —BarrelProof (talk) 00:00, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

Nomination of Isares for deletion

NPR Newsletter No.18


Hello ,

, a product manager for the growth team, announced that work is underway in implementing improvements to New Page Patrol as part of the 2019 Community Wishlist and suggests all who are interested watch the project page on meta. Two requested improvements have already been completed. These are:
 * WMF at work on NPP Improvements
 * Allow filtering by no citations in page curation
 * Not having CSD and PRODs automatically marked as reviewed, reflecting current consensus among reviewers and current Twinkle functionality.

has been compiling a list of reliable sources across countries and industries that can be used by new page patrollers to help judge whether an article topic is notable or not. At this point further discussion is needed about if and how this list should be used. Please consider joining the discussion about how this potentially valuable resource should be developed and used.
 * Reliable Sources for NPP

Look for information on the an upcoming backlog drive in our next newsletter. If you'd like to help plan this drive, join in the discussion on the New Page Patrol talk page.
 * Backlog drive coming soon


 * News
 * Following a request for comment, the subject-specific notability guideline for pornographic actors and models (WP:PORNBIO) was removed; in its place, editors should consult WP:ENT and WP:GNG.


 * Discussions of interest
 * A request for bot approval for a bot to patrol two kinds of redirects
 * There has been a lot discussion about Notability of Academics
 * What, if anything, would a SNG for Softball look like

What the Detainment (film) per Lugnuts – please be more careful... this kind of move wastes my time! wbm1058 (talk) 15:36, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Tell me why I shouldn't move Detainment (2018 film) back to Detainment (film). wbm1058 (talk) 15:39, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
 * As you could see from my edit history I was interrupted causing the error and causing me to go offline for several hours. A tech move has already been put in. In ictu oculi (talk) 19:49, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks, and sorry for getting a little bitey. I kind of figured a little while after I posted here that you might have had an offline interruption, but I hesitated to revert you because you often find other films/songs/etc. with conflicting titles and I didn't know whether when you returned you would be adding a link to another film named Detainment. wbm1058 (talk) 13:03, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
 * And thanks for cleaning up (disambiguating) the links... in hindsight, it's kind of funny that you were unexpectedly "detained" while working on "detainment". Best, wbm1058 (talk) 13:33, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

1948
Thanks for your input at the debate on the titles of the 1947-49 Palestine war pages. This has been an impossible problem in wikipedia for more than a decade, and the subject of multiple discussions. I was too hasty in trying a single-answer vote, and as discussed here with, we ( and I) have worked to refactor the discussion to build a clearer picture of people’s views. If you could find 10 minutes further for this topic, please review the background of the wider debate at Talk:1947–1949 Palestine war/Name and then add your opinion to the table at Talk:1947–1949_Palestine_war.

Many thanks, Onceinawhile (talk) 17:27, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi IIO,
 * The new voting table has now got traction, with 10 participants. I am hopeful that with a few more, we can find a resolution to this decade-old discussion.
 * Please could you add your vote for all five options there?
 * It's hard for us to judge true consensus without getting your broader view.
 * In an ideal world you might scan the scholarly position on the name debate at this link, put 1948 war into google to check whether there is any scope for confusion with other topics, and compare it to this situation.
 * Whatever you decide, I will accept as your final word.
 * Onceinawhile (talk) 10:03, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter July-August 2019


Hello ,

More new features are being added to the feed, including the important red alert for previously deleted pages. This will only work if it is selected in your filters. Best is to 'select all'. Do take a moment to check out all the new features if you have not already done so. If anything is not working as it should, please let us know at NPR. There is now also a live queue of AfC submissions in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to review AfCs, but bear in mind that NPP is an official process and policy and is more important. Articles are still not always being checked thoroughly enough. If you are not sure what to do, leave the article for a more experienced reviewer. Please be on the alert for any incongruities in patrolling and help your colleagues where possible; report patrollers and autopatrolled article creators who are ostensibly undeclared paid editors. The displayed ORES alerts offer a greater 'at-a-glance' overview, but the new challenges in detecting unwanted new content and sub-standard reviewing do not necessarily make patrolling any easier, nevertheless the work may have a renewed interest factor of a different kind. A vibrant community of reviewers is always ready to help at NPR. The backlog is still far too high at between 7,000 and 8,000. Of around 700 user rights holders, 80% of the reviewing is being done by just TWO users. In the light of more and more subtle advertising and undeclared paid editing, New Page Reviewing is becoming more critical than ever. NPR is triage, it is not a clean up clinic. This move feature is not limited to bios so  you may have to slightly re-edit the text in the template before you save the move. Anything that is not fit for mainspace but which might have some promise can be draftified - particularly very poor English and machine and other low quality translations. Remember to use the message feature if you are just tagging an article for maintenance rather than deletion. Otherwise articles are likely to remain perma-tagged. Many creators are SPA and have no intention of returning to Wikipedia. Use the feature too for leaving a friendly note note for  the author of a first article you found well made or interesting. Many have told us they find such comments particularly welcoming and encouraging. Admins are now taking advantage of the new time-limited user rights feature. If you have recently been accorded NPR, do check your user rights to see if this affects you. Depending on your user account preferences, you may receive automated notifications of your rights changes. Requests for permissions are not mini-RfAs. Helpful comments are welcome if absolutely necessary, but the bot does a lot of the work and the final decision is reserved for admins who do thorough research anyway. School and academic holidays will begin soon in various places around the Western world. Be on the lookout for the usual increase in hoax, attack, and other junk pages.

Siegfried
A while ago, someone moved Siegfried (opera) to Siegfried (Wagner) Lohengrin (opera) ..., because there's also some other Siegfried. It took a while to convince him that the primary Siegfried is Wagner's, and that was reverted. Could you therefore revert the move of Faust? I feel strongly that it's a similar case. I don't know about the others. If I was you, I'd suggest such a major change to project opera before doing anything. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:38, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I've done it but it is contrary to Wikipedia policy. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:42, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I am not a policy person. Sorry, my memory, it was Lohengrin. The whole discussion is, look for my name and Voceditenore. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:55, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, no problem. But in the case of Faust they are both operas by major composers. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:58, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Do you want to suggest that Sciarrone is not a major composer? - Also: it's not even a question which composer is primary topic, but which work, and while Spohr is well known for flute music, I doubt it for this opera. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:06, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes :) In ictu oculi (talk) 23:07, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
 * "if needs must"??? - consistency is not "needed", imho, as long as readers find articles, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:07, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

Now Farnace. Why? Will any reader search for that unspeakable composer name? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:22, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Gerda - why? because of WP:TITLE titling Farnace (opera) must redirect to Farnace which is WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, it cannot redirect to the obscure Farnace (Mysliveček) In ictu oculi (talk) 20:53, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

WikiProject/Expedition on religious neutrality
I notice that both of us have generally the same viewpoint when it comes to Peter the Apostle, which I gather from Talk:Peter (Apostle) and Talk:Peter (Apostle)(disambiguation). While I know there are rules about canvassing and I know we need to follow those, I think it would be worthwhile to form a religious neutrality WikiProject (or expedition, as I would call it) to promote religious neutrality on Wikipedia.

I'd go to lengths to argue that it is not an Atheist group. I do not know about you personally, but I would identify myself as a Christian and I would point out that I support what's best for Wikipedia and I do not let my personal bias get in the way. I'd like to know what you think of this idea. --Comment by Selfie City ( talk about my  contributions ) 02:17, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

Zélindor, roi des Sylphes moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Zélindor, roi des Sylphes, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Dockers RM
Hi In ictu oculi,

Bringing this here rather than the talk page to avoid a distracting flame debate, but can you adjust or remove your reply to Calidum at Talk:Dockers with the "You cannot oppose per SnowFire ... Whether SnowFire has heard of something or not is not a policy or guideline on Wikipedia."? We have our differences on proper titling policy, but this reads as a bit of a personal attack that how-dare-someone-agree-with-SnowFire, or at least that SnowFire-is-an-idiot. Looking at the timestamp, that happened AFTER I had already posted some more detail which you even responded to on why I felt this was a bad move even for UK readers. Even if I hadn't, who cares? If the closer agrees that I'm totally wrong, they'll discount Calidum as well. If they don't, well, then that means the closer disagrees with you that my comments are so wrong as to be invalid.

As a side comment, "general knowledge" is in fact perfectly valid to bring up in RMs as a data point if nothing else - please don't flame people (like me) for saying "uh what" to claimed obvious usages, as hopefully we can agree that there do exist move proposers who claim some obscure usage is obvious, and it needs to be okay for commenters to push back on this and find out more. That's a normal and healthy RM, not something to try and shut down. SnowFire (talk) 16:13, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I called it as I see it per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC In ictu oculi (talk) 00:04, 28 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not asking you to change your mind. I'm just asking that you consider rephrasing such comments in the future.  "SnowFire is wrong" or "SnowFire's argument is weak" is fine.  "You cannot possibly agree with SnowFire", and straw-manning my argument as solely being on "whether I have heard of something", I'd prefer if you avoided such phrasings, about me or any other Wikipedian, even if you think their argument is totally wrong.  SnowFire (talk) 19:07, 28 August 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Gobble Hoof


The article Gobble Hoof has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Fails WP:NBAN. Cannot find any SIGCOV, no claims of notability"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

New Page Review newsletter September-October 2019
Hello ,

Instead of reaching a magic 300 as it once did last year, the backlog approaching 6,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google.
 * Backlog

A proposal is taking place here to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR.
 * Coordinator

Why I Hate Speedy Deleters, a 2008 essay by long since retired, is still as valid today. Those of us who patrol large numbers of new pages can be forgiven for  making  the occasional  mistake while  others can learn from  their 'beginner' errors. Worth reading.
 * This month's refresher course

Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon (you will need to have 'Nominated for deletion' enabled for this in your filters) may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders using Twinkle. They require your further verification.
 * Deletion tags

Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary. WMF policy requires paid editors to connect to their adverts.
 * Paid editing


 * Subject-specific notability guidelines' (SNG). Alternatives to deletion
 * Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves once more with notability guidelines for organisations and companies.
 * Blank-and-Redirect is a solution anchored in policy. Please consider this alternative before PRODing or CSD. Note however, that users will often revert or usurp redirects to re-create deleted articles. Do regularly patrol the redirects in the feed.

Regular reviewers will appreciate the most recent  enhancements to  the New Pages Feed and  features in the Curation  tool, and there are still more to  come. Due to the wealth  of information  now displayed by  ORES, reviewers are strongly  encouraged to  use the system now rather than Twinkle; it  will  also  correctly  populate the logs.
 * Not English
 * A common issue: Pages not in English or poor, unattributed machine translations should not reside in main space even if they are stubs. Please ensure you are familiar with WP:NPPNE. Check in Google for the language and content, and if they do have potential, tag as required, then move to draft. Modify the text of the template as appropriate before sending it.
 * Tools

Stub sorting, by SD0001: A new script is available for adding/removing stub tags. See User:SD0001/StubSorter.js, It features a simple HotCat-style dynamic search field. Many of the reviewers who are using it are finding it an improvement upon other available tools.

Assessment: The script at User:Evad37/rater makes the addition of Wikiproject templates extremely easy. New page creators rarely do this. Reviewers are not obliged to make these edits but they only take a few seconds. They can use the Curation message system to let the creator know what they have done.

Speedy deletion nomination of Emerson Quiet Kool


A tag has been placed on Emerson Quiet Kool, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic.

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Tony De La Rosa


A tag has been placed on Tony De La Rosa requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
 * disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
 * is a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

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.

New Page Review newsletter November 2019
Hello ,

This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon. There are now holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action. Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If each reviewer soon does only 2 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by every reviewer doing only 1 review every 2 days - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays. Want to join? Consider adding the NPP Pledge userbox. Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some really cool awards. Admin has been officially invested as NPP/NPR coordinator by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers. Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: This official Wikipedia article will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See The Hallmarks to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources. Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. New Reviewer mentorship will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional peer review cohort for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch November 13. The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights. There is to be no wish list for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.

 * This month's refresher course
 * Tools
 * It is now possible to select new pages by date range. This was requested by reviewers who want to patrol from the middle of the list.
 * It is now also possible for accredited reviewers to put any article back into the New Pages Feed for re-review. The link is under 'Tools' in the side bar.
 * Reviewer Feedback
 * Second set of eyes
 * Not only are New Page Reviewers the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work, especially while some routine tagging for deletion can still be carried out by non NPR holders and inexperienced users. Read about it at the Monitoring the system section in the tutorial. If you come across such editors doing good work, don't hesitate to encourage them to apply for NPR.
 * Do be sure to have our talk page  on your watchlist. There are often items that require reviewers' special attention, such as to watch out for pages by known socks or disruptive editors, technical issues and new developments, and of course to provide advice for other reviewers.

Proposed deletion of Celeste Johnson


The article Celeste Johnson has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Article does not meet WP:NMUSICIAN. Subject is barely notable and is only relevant to Italian Wikipedia because the few sources that do exist are all in Italian. This may be why the article is an orphan. Google results are also very dry: 'celeste johnson'; 'celeste johnson singer'; 'celeste johnson italian singer'"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. heyitsben!! talk 15:35, 29 November 2019 (UTC)

Invitation to join the Ten Year Society
Dear ,

I'd like to extend a cordial invitation to you to join the Ten Year Society, an informal group for editors who've been participating in the Wikipedia project for ten years or more. &#x200B;

Best regards, Chris Troutman  ( talk ) 02:32, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Gjonbalaj


A tag has been placed on Gjonbalaj requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. userdude 04:17, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

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)

Merry Christmas!


BOZ (talk) is wishing you a Merry Christmas! This greeting (and season) promotes WikiLove and hopefully this note has made your day a little better. Spread the WikiLove by wishing another user a Merry Christmas, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past, a good friend, or just some random person. Don't eat yellow snow!

Spread the holiday cheer by adding to their talk page with a friendly message.

I'm wishing you a Merry Christmas, because that is what I celebrate. If you don't like Christmas or just don't celebrate it in any of its forms, then please accept a generic "Happy Holidays". If you celebrate no holidays at this time of year, then hopefully you will be satisfied with an even more generic "Season's Greetings". :) BOZ (talk) 21:46, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
