Edit war warning
Your recent editing history at Juul shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Did you read this? QuackGuru ( talk ) 15:58, 30 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Are you at all familiar with the three-revert rule? Clearly not... I've reverted the addition to Juul twice  over the course of three days. That is not an edit war. Please read through the actual policy WP:EDIT WARRING before you come and slap this warning on my talk page.  Meatsgains (talk) 15:50, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

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.

AfD noms using Page Curation
Greetings. I had reverted the AfD tag you placed on Americans for a Free Syria because no discussion page was created. As this tag was placed using the page curation tool, I'm wondering whether there's a bug there or if not all necessary steps were followed somehwere. I notice that the same thing happened today with your nomination of Akram Habib, but I've left it alone for the moment as the article creator has created the discussion page by leaving a comment there. Please follow up there. Thanks. --Finngall talk 17:48, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination
Hello! You tagged TicTol for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia. I wanted to discuss it here with you and ask for your help in creating this article. Wikipedia has a list of all project management software in which they are compared with regard to their features and tools. The software for which I tried to create a Wikipedia entry is a newly released one, but it belongs on the list with others so that other users who look at the list can compare and decide which software suits them the best and which of the most important features they have, how they can be used. There is no other place where all of this is available. In order to add it to this list, the software has to have its own page to prove it is legit and functioning. Also, a Wiki page about it would be the quickest way for people to learn more about it without reading biased promotions and ads. Would this be good enough reason? Thank you, --Ivona Co (talk) 02:25, 15 November 2019 (UTC)


 * You can discuss why you feel this page should not be deleted on the article's talk page however, Wikipedia is not for users to "compare and decide which software suits them the best". Also, you've provided zero reliable sources establishing any kind of notability. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 02:53, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Maurice Kamga
I did not delete Maurice Kamga, which you had tagged for speedy a7, because the assertion that the person is the Secretary of the Int Court of Justice is a statement of plausible significance. It's true itwas entirely unsourced, so BLP Prod would have been appropriate, andI will place it unless I can immediately source it.  DGG ( talk ) 00:07, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

, @ : Would you mind to advise what to do? I put the sources, references of the article about Maurice Kamga in French version -- Lybil (talk) 07:59, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I see that the French version has been moved from mainspace there to your user space there, as https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:Lybil/Brouillon, on the basis of not having sufficient third party references--it does have many references, but they are essentially all his own writings, and   the content consists mainly of a detailed CV. For the English article, we would want only the key accomplishments, and his books,  aand possibly his yearbook contributions, not his other  articles. You then need to find references to  reviews of his  books in professional publications, which may be difficult outside a specialized library.    The way to proceed is to then look for newspaper and magazine references to his work.  DGG ( talk ) 16:49, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Contest deletion of Solana Paz
Hello @Meatsgains,

I'm contesting this deletion because I'm not sure if you read my message pertaining to this, and if you viewed the subject's IMDb page. Please let me know, as I would like to either have it recovered or recreate it. The list of films she has appeared in, as well as that she has studied under reputable acting coaches; and gives back to the community through mentoring and youth actors' workshops, I feel, warrants her having a page.

Please let me know. I've read many of the educational pages of instruction for Wikipedia adding and editing. And, have contributed to the correct number of posts. So, it is discouraging that you will not allow this page. What else does one need to do to gain the "worthiness" for a page? Please advise. (BTW: P.S. I am not Solana Paz.)

Thank you so much, @CAOneto — Preceding unsigned comment added by CAOneto (talk • contribs) 02:24, 20 November 2019 (UTC)


 * I recommend starting a draft in your WP:SANDBOX before uploading it to the mainspace. You will need to provide reliable sources detailing Solana Paz to establish notability.

I removed the AfD for this page because the nomination was abandoned without being completed. Based on WP:AFDHOW, it looks like you did Step III first, then Step I, but skipped Step II which is where you provide the reason for deletion.

Hello. I noticed that you nominated Vaniyambadi Revenue district for deletion, but did not create an AfD page for it. I guess it is a bug of Page Curation or something?

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 16:11, 20 December 2019 (UTC)

TransLatina Coalition
Hi Meatsgains, before you posted the reFill box on the TransLatina Coalition page, I had been trying to get reFill to work on the page for 20 minutes, to no avail. Can you get it to work on your end? I've been using it over the past number of weeks without a problem, but between yesterday and today, it seems to have gotten corrupt or something. I'm not technically very savvy so if you could run it on your end to consolidate some of the page's redundant citations, that would be so great! Let me know once you do, if you could! --Caterpillar84 (talk) 02:03, 16 January 2020 (UTC)


 * I also attempted to use the refill tool before I added the linkrot tag but ran into the same issue you did. I'm thinking it may just be a temporary bug that will likely be resolved in the next couple days. I'll continue checking. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 02:41, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Hess Corporation (toys)


The article Hess Corporation (toys) has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Content should be merged into Hess Corporation, content not notable enough for a standalone article."

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.

Contesting speedy deletion for I just work here soft redirect
Hi ,

I appreciate your good-faith speedy deletion tagging per G3 of I just work here, but note it's not a hoax. It's a valid soft redirect to Wiktionary and, thus, if you feel it's not useful, you can discuss at RfD.

This is a new territory for New Page Patrollers as the documentation guide doesn't currently include information on soft redirects. I'm in the process of drafting one, but for now, see also Talk:Megathread and WP:SOFTREDIRECT.

Cheers,

--Doug Mehus T · C  02:29, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment I have also created soft redirects to Wiktionary for Googlewhore and $DEITY, which I'd appreciate you marking as 'reviewed' as did with Megathread.
 * Essentially, Wiktionary soft redirects prevent hoax pages from being repeatedly recreated, prevent cleanup activities, encourage participation at sister Wikimedia projects, and encourage article creation. --Doug Mehus T · C  02:33, 11 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Although I don't particularly see the page as useful, I already removed the speedy deletion tag. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 02:32, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , thanks, I appreciate that, but actually, the shows we have nearly 1,500 Wiktionary redirects to non-encyclopedic content. The main thing is they (a) help to promote our sister projects and (b) help us to enforce WP:NOTDICTIONARY. Doug Mehus  T · C  02:35, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , The problem is they're pseudo-redirects, so they show up in the "others" feed of the curation tool, even though they're essentially redirects. Doug Mehus T · C  02:35, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , basically, my understanding of what you need to look out for in reviewing soft redirects is that:
 * The link to the Wiktionary entry is an existing target (if not, you should be able to tag as G8 since it's a non-existent target);
 * The title should usually not include a parenthetical disambiguation qualifier as that suggests we already have an encyclopedia article on the topic; and, finally,
 * Check to ensure that the user has added the Wiktionary redirect template, preferably added the optional longcomment template (via substitution); and that it's got both a public and a hidden maintenance category.
 * If all of the above exist, then you can mark the page as reviewed in the Page Curation Tool.
 * If we have an existing article on the same' thing (i.e., Milkshake Duck), then Milkshake duck is probably more appropriate as a redirect there, and Wiktionary should be added inline on the text of that page.
 * Does that help?
 * , do I more or less have that right? Doug Mehus T · C  02:56, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , I mean, as far as I'm aware we don't really have any actual guideline-or-policy-level advice for reviewing soft redirects (and barely have an essay, plus a guideline about deletion, for reviewing redirects in general), so at this point any advice that sounds reasonable is as authoritative as it gets. signed,Rosguill talk 03:33, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. I'll try and make my focus on working on that draft for you to look over. Doug Mehus T · C  03:38, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer newsletter February 2020
Hello ,

The first NPP source guide discussion is now underway. It covers a wide range of sources in Ghana with the goal of providing more guidance to reviewers about sources they might see when reviewing pages. Hopefully, new page reviewers will join others interested in reliable sources and those with expertise in these sources to make the discussion a success.
 * Source Guide Discussion

New to NPP? Looking to try something a little different? Consider patrolling some redirects. Redirects are relatively easy to review, can be found easily through the New Pages Feed. You can find more information about how to patrol redirects at WP:RPATROL.
 * Redirects


 * Discussions and Resources
 * There is an ongoing discussion around changing notifications for new editors who attempt to write articles.
 * A recent discussion of whether Michelin starred restraunts are notable was archived without closure.
 * A resource page with links pertinent for reviewers was created this month.
 * A proposal to increase the scope of G5 was withdrawn.

Geographic regions, areas and places generally do not need general notability guideline type sourcing. When evaluating whether an article meets this notability guideline please also consider whether it might actually be a form of WP:SPAM for a development project (e.g. PR for a large luxury residential development) and not actually covered by the guideline.

Chaos by User:Shabicht at Austrian Southern Railway
Could you please look into the chaos created by user User:Shabicht at various articles aruond the Austrian Southern Railway? His change is completely unnecessary; he did not understand the problem User:Kleeblatt187 described in 2018 (which I solved long ago); he is not able to do article movements correctly (therefore the talk link of Austrian Southern Railway now points to the talk page Austrian Southern Railway Company, which makes it impossible to comment on the useless new article); and he uses "his" new article to add discussion comments.

I have added respective constructive comments at his user page, which triggered him to add the wrong "comment" his new article page, and the other concerned pages.

I see his idea - it's not per se wrong. But that's not the way to create a new article if there already is enough text around about precisely what he (presumably) wants to write in the near or far future.


 * Hello User:Haraldmmueller and Meatsgains  - thank you for your opinion! I'd like to say:
 * (a) You finally have to look more globally, English and German Wikipedia are the only one that had the articles about Austrian part of Austrian Southern Railway only, but the line never ended at Slovenian border but in Trieste! I suggest to enyone to fullfill the new article "Austrian Southern Railway" about Slovenia and Italy also (and not the other lines of Austrian Sudbahn Gesselschaft) like they wanted to, and to you not to delete it! The articles about entire Austrian Southern Railroad exist in Slovenian and Italian Wikipedia for a long time, but they had not to be connected with others correctly!!
 * (b) I got a big complain from German wikipedists because there was no space for an article about entire Austrian Southern Railway (and not about Austrian part only), couse there was article "Austrian Southern Railway " (Austrian Sudbahn) before (not the line but company). Only after my complains they finnaly renamed it into "Sudbahn-Gesellschaft". I have a big support from Slovenian wikipedists about corrections also!
 * (c) I had big troubles about correct categorisation of the all articles in four different languages (English, Slovene, German, Italian), (just try it!) so I please you to understand that I cannot make everything like anyone wanted to be! P.S.


 * (d) the opinion of my friend:I tried to fix a few more things today at wikidata and commons. As far as I understand your message above: It seems to me that the real problem is at en-WP en:Southern Railway (Austria), as this article has been mixed up with information about the railway line and the previous company. I have already put it there at the discussion page a while ago. Unfortunately we cannot really solve the problem of en-wp at wikidata. It seems to me that in all other wp-languages there is a difference between the previous company, the former Südbahn-line from Vienna to Trieste and today's Südbahn-line only within Austria. Best wishes, --Kleeblatt187 (User talk:Kleeblatt187) 15:06, 27. februar 2020 (CET)

P.S. My talk page in on Slovenian Wikipedia, please use it, like others do!

Links of anything mentioned in this section of the page are no longer active. It is unreliable information. The only sourced link that works calls the information a politically motivated attack.

Alinah Kelo Segobye
Apologies if this is in the wrong place, still new to Wiki.

You've tagged this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alinah_Kelo_Segobye for speedy deletion as not notable. I'm confused because following the guidelines here for academics:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(academics)

I would have assumed notability under criterion 3 (elected fellow of the African Academy of Sciences) and possibly under criterion 7 (invited to address UNESCO event, position on national HIV board.)

Is the problem the lack of Segobye's achievments, or simply that they are not presented clearly enough for you? (i.e. a redraft but not a speedy delete?)

Speedy Deletion of Pride at Work Canada
Hi there. I saw you have recommended the page I just created for speedy deletion. I admit I haven't written a lot of pages from scratch but I'm actually trying to do more. I'm amazed at how many pages on important Canadian work are not included on Wikipedia. So, my question to you is what could I have done differently to avoid this flag? I included multiple references to articles that show the importance of the organization in Canada. What else could I do? Appreciate some guidance. BadNewsBear (talk) 15:32, 21 April 2020 (UTC)


 * If I remember correctly, the reason I PROD'd the page was because the subject lacked notability and significant coverage in reliable source. The sources you provided were weak, primary, and only mentioned the organization in passing. Hope this clears things up. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 20:48, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

luciano micallef page
Hi I was in the process of adding content on Luciano Micallef page when my computer crashed this evening i hope to continue working on this page tomorrow. Please do not mark for deletion as it still has content that needs to be added. thank you. Angie Balzan (talk) 18:31, 23 April 2020 (UTC)


 * I added the initial speedy deletion tag but user Praxidicae added another one after you removed mine. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 00:18, 24 April 2020 (UTC)


 * One thing to note - the page now reads highly promotional. I recommend fleshing out ALL the promotional language. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 00:19, 24 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Let me look into it and continue with my amendments. Thanks for the pointers. I removed the deletion tag because when you placed it the page had only one sentence of content. Your deletion tag would have been justified in the circumstance. However, I continued working on the page and added more data and citations that gave it more body and relevance. I will read through again and continue formulating it to emphasise the notability of this artist whilst also cleaning it of any superfluous language as you have suggested. Angie Balzan (talk) 09:48, 24 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Looks like the page has been deleted. Don't get discouraged though! I would recommend, for future pages, creating a draft in your WP:SANDBOX before uploading to the mainspace. Here you can make any changes and ask for user feedback before the page is deleted. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 15:08, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of The Wicked 7
Dear Meatsgains,

Thank you for your mediation. Yet, I consider the subject of Wicked 7 is significant because it is an organization that brings together many experts from economics, business, politics, and activists who aim to address significant global issues and engage people in solving them. The article is currently incomplete but I am working on it to develop its full potential. The people behind this project have proven that they are changing things for the better.Anthony W. Ulwick, Stuart L. Hart, Michael J. Gelb, David Hinds, Thomas H. Davenport, John Seely Brown, David Cobb (activist), Clark V. Fox, Adi Ignatius, Henry Mintzberg, John Elkington (business author), Anil Kumar Gupta, John Hagel III I'll just need some more time to expand the article.

New Page Reviewer newsletter June 2020
Hello ,

NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference. In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.
 * Your help can make a difference
 * Google Adds New Languages to Google Translate
 * Discussions and Resources
 * A discussion on handling new article creation by paid editors is ongoing at the Village Pump.
 * Also at the Village Pump is a discussion about limiting participation at Articles for Deletion discussion.
 * A proposed new speedy deletion criteria for certain kinds of redirects ended with no consensus.
 * Also ending with no change was a proposal to change how we handle certain kinds of vector images.

Æther Realm
Hi Meatsgains. I've added the band page for Æther Realm since they've been signed by a major metal record label and have produced their third professional LP. They're an established, reviewed band now. Their albums are treated as a major release now (see double review at https://www.angrymetalguy.com/aether-realm-redneck-vikings-from-hell-review/). Happy to add any further suggested content - cheers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Galtenberg (talk • contribs) 00:51, 14 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks for reaching out. Are you able to provide additional reliable sources that establish notability? The page's current references (blogs and a press release) are weak. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 00:54, 14 July 2020 (UTC)


 * I should have included references to their major review on Blabbermouth https://www.blabbermouth.net/cdreviews/redneck-vikings-from-hell/, also https://distortedsoundmag.com/album-review-aether-realm-redneck-vikings-from-hell/. Their 2nd album crossed 3.5 million streams on Spotify https://www.facebook.com/AetherRealm/photos/a.843116179066725/3354097031301948/?type=3&theater. They're certainly not a huge band, but are now established enough in the metal community.


 * I recommend adding reliable sources to the page and I will remove the PROD upon completion. FYI Facebook does not count as a WP:RS. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 01:10, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

New Page Patrol December Newsletter
Hello ,



It has been a productive year for New Page Patrol as we've roughly cut the size of the New Page Patrol queue in half this year. We have been fortunate to have a lot of great work done by who was the reviewer of the most pages and redirects this past year. Thanks and credit go to and  who join Rosguill in repeating in the top 10 from last year. Thanks to, , and who all got the NPR permission this year and joined the top 10. Also new to the top ten is DannyS712 bot III, programmed by which has helped to dramatically reduce the number of redirects that have needed human patrolling by patrolling certain types of redirects (e.g. for differences in accents) and by also patrolling editors who are on on the redirect whitelist.
 * Year in review

has been named reviewer of the year for 2020. John has held the permission for just over 6 months and in that time has helped cut into the queue by reviewing more than 18,000 articles. His talk page shows his efforts to communicate with users, upholding NPP's goal of nurturing new users and quality over quantity.
 * Reviewer of the Year

As a special recognition and thank you has been awarded the first NPP Technical Achievement Award. His work programming the bot has helped us patrol redirects tremendously - more than 60,000 redirects this past year. This has been a large contribution to New Page Patrol and definitely is worthy of recognition.

New Page Patrol newsletter September 2021
Hello ,

Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.

Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our  Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but  there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.

At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.

There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.

If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software. Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here. To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Vitaly Shevchenko (journalist)
Two questions re your edits to the page I set up earlier today. 1. The removal of the Podcast link, I can understand - the term is so common that there's need to have a link (you wouldn't have a country link every time the word "country" was mentioned. But I don't understand why you have removed Ukrainecast. There is no page by this name, but I thought it was legitimate to create a link to something that ought (or might in the future) have its own page. I will be surprised if someone (might even be me if I have the time) creates one in the next few months. 2. You have added Vitaly to "Russian Journalists". I am still trying to find more biographical information on him, but his Linkedin page (https://uk.linkedin.com/in/vitalyshevchenko) makes no mention of him ever having worked as a journalist in Russia itself. Also, I suspect (I'd need to listen to back issues of Ukrainecast to be sure) that while his native language may be Russian, his nationality is Ukrainian. For both these reasons, I think this categorisation is inappropriate. But I'd like to hear your thoughts before reverting. Navrongo (talk) 19:49, 30 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Ukrainecast is not independently notable to warrant a Wikipedia page thus, no wikilink. I've removed the category as I was unable to confirm if he is Russian. The page certainly need more references for support. Meatsgains (<b style="color:#5F9EA0">talk</b>) 21:18, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
