Guideline and policy news
 * Following an RfC, editors indefinitely site-banned by community consensus will now have all rights, including sysop, removed.
 * As a part of the Wikimedia Foundation's IP Masking project, a new policy has been created that governs the access to temporary account IP addresses. An associated FAQ has been created and individual communities can increase the requirements to view temporary account IP addresses.

Technical news
 * Bot operators and tool maintainers should schedule time in the coming months to test and update their tools for the effects of IP masking. IP masking will not be deployed to any content wiki until at least October 2023 and is unlikely to be deployed to the English Wikipedia until some time in 2024.

Arbitration
 * The arbitration case World War II and the history of Jews in Poland has been closed. The topic area of Polish history during World War II (1933-1945) and the history of Jews in Poland is subject to a "reliable source consensus-required" contentious topic restriction.

Miscellaneous
 * Following a community referendum, the arbitration policy has been modified to remove the ability for users to appeal remedies to.

New Pages Patrol newsletter June 2023
Hello , Backlog

Redirect drive: In response to an unusually high redirect backlog, we held a redirect backlog drive in May. The drive completed with 23851 reviews done in total, bringing the redirect backlog to 0 (momentarily). Congratulations to who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by  and  with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See this page for more details. The redirect queue is steadily rising again and is steadily approaching 4,000. Please continue to help out, even if it's only for a few or even one review a day.

Redirect autopatrol: All administrators without autopatrol have now been added to the redirect autopatrol list. If you see any users who consistently create significant amounts of good quality redirects, consider requesting redirect autopatrol for them here.

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team, consisting of, and also some patches from , has been hard at work updating PageTriage. They are focusing their efforts on modernising the extension's code rather than on bug fixes or new features, though some user-facing work will be prioritised. This will help make sure that this extension is not deprecated, and is easier to work on in the future. In the next month or so, we will have an opt-in beta test where new page patrollers can help test the rewrite of Special:NewPagesFeed, to help find bugs. We will post more details at WT:NPPR when we are ready for beta testers.

Articles for Creation (AFC): All new page reviewers are now automatically approved for Articles for Creation draft reviewing (you do not need to apply at WT:AFCP like was required previously). To install the AFC helper script, visit Special:Preferences, visit the Gadgets tab, tick "Yet Another AFC Helper Script", then click "Save". To find drafts to review, visit Special:NewPagesFeed, and at the top left, tick "Articles for Creation". To review a draft, visit a submitted draft, click on the "More" menu, then click "Review (AFCH)". You can also comment on and submit drafts that are unsubmitted using the script.

You can review the AFC workflow at WP:AFCR. It is up to you if you also want to mark your AFC accepts as NPP reviewed (this is allowed but optional, depends if you would like a second set of eyes on your accept). Don't forget that draftspace is optional, so moves of drafts to mainspace (even if they are not ready) should not be reverted, except possibly if there is conflict of interest.

Pro tip: Did you know that visual artists such as painters have their own SNG? The most common part of this "creative professionals" criteria that applies to artists is WP:ARTIST 4b (solo exhibition, not group exhibition, at a major museum) or 4d (being represented within the permanent collections of two museums).

 * Thebiguglyalien, with 919 points from a featured article on Frances Cleveland as well as five good articles and many reviews,
 * Unlimitedlead, with 862 points from a high-scoring featured articles on Henry II of England and numerous reviews,
 * Iazyges, with 560 points from a high-scoring featured article on Tiberius III.

Contestants achieved 11 featured articles, 2 featured lists, 47 good articles, 72 featured or good article reviews, over 100 DYKs and 40 ITN appearances. As always, any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. Please also remember that all submissions must meet core Wikipedia policies, regardless of the review process.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

 * Was checking for possible vandalism on that page, and the first thing that jumped out to me in that edit was an entire block of text being replaced with the word "fascist" being WP-linked, which happened to be your first edit with this IP address. I realized after seeing 10+ similar edits the types of changes that were being made (good changes at that, so thank you!), so I left the rest be and figured my undo could be reverted if needed.

 * A discussion at WP:VPP about revision deletion and oversight for dead names found that [s]ysops can choose to use revdel if, in their view, it's the right tool for this situation, and they need not default to oversight. But oversight could well be right where there's a particularly high risk to the person. Use your judgment.

Technical news

Arbitration
 * The SmallCat dispute case has closed. As part of the final decision, editors participating in XfD have been reminded to be careful about forming local consensus which may or may not reflect the broader community consensus.

WikiCup 2023 September newsletter
The fourth round of the competition has finished, with anyone scoring less than 673 points being eliminated. It was a high scoring round with all but one of the contestants who progressed to the final having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were


 * Epicgenius, with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by
 * Sammi Brie, with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was
 * Thebiguglyalien, with 1535 points mainly gained from a featured article, 15 good articles, 26 good article reviews and lots of bonus points.

Between them during round 4, contestants achieved 12 featured articles, 3 featured lists, 3 featured pictures, 126 good articles, 46 DYK entries, 14 ITN entries, 67 featured article candidate reviews and 147 good article reviews. Congratulations to our eight finalists and all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them and within 24 hours of the end of the final. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

I will be standing down as a judge after the end of the contest. I think the Cup encourages productive editors to improve their contributions to Wikipedia and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), and Cwmhiraeth (talk)

Albanian Resistance to Ottoman Rule
Hi Utopes. You recently moved Albanian Resistance to Ottoman Rule to main space, but it's is missing most of it's referencing. The original creator hasn't editted since February, so could you confirm the what works the following refer to? "Treptow 1992", "Noli 1962", "Stanojević & Vasić 1975", "Gawrych 2006", "Skendi 1967", and "Akademia e Shkencave e Shqipërisë 2002". -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested ∆transmissions∆ °co-ords° 21:41, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

 * These sources can (and should) be added to the article; I suppose I'll go ahead and complete that now. From my point of view during the review, the information that was present about the sources' titles & authors listed, as well as the other non-book sources, would have been just enough context to keep this article afloat.

See No Evil, Hear No Evil (film)
It's not that big a deal so I won't revert, but procedurally, I don't think the discussion at RfD should have been applied to moving the film article, since watchers of the article might have not had a chance to weigh in. (There was a talk page notification, but that was for the incoming redirect, not the article itself being renamed, and strictly speaking RfD wasn't the right forum anyway.) While an IAR closure might have been made given the majority of participants in agreement, it's a call I think would have been better left to an admin.

In any case, when moving pages to disambiguated titles, please also remember to remove hatnotes that are no longer needed, per WP:NOTAMB. Thanks. --Paul_012 (talk) 06:00, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
 * That's fair, thank you for the notification! I think I changed the hatnote at the retarget of Three monkeys but didn't remove at the film; it was getting late for me and I wanted to do something that wasn't just reviewing AfC drafts. Probably should have been sleeping by that point. 😅 Thank you for fixing it!
 * To weigh in on my point of view during the RfD close; I felt the action was something that anyone could have done, so I just went ahead and boldly did so. While the RfD discussion may have been about the redirects, the big takeaway that resulted was that the two redirects had consensus to point towards Three wise monkeys, which in doing so would have been an overturning of the previous status quo. Its result had the R from diff-caps-redirect, with a near identical title to the film, undergo a retarget. At that point, the film's title was the only odd-one-out in a likely surprising twist of fate. The RfD had consensus that the three monkeys were the primary topic above the film, so it felt like an uncontroversial reason for moving a page (to properly disambiguate it).
 * Would it have been safer to leave it to an admin to make the call? Perhaps so, but at the same time it did seem like the common sense outcome after the consensus for the redirect retargeting was reached. Regardless, I will be sure to be more mindful in the future whenever there's a closures which requires a page move or two, in the instance it could potentially be controversial. Thank you for the heads up about this and the hatnote! Cheers, Utopes (talk / cont) 04:44, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Also, because I didn't fully address it here, WP:DIFFCAPS still could be used as an argument to keep it at it's original title. That being said, with the three monkeys as a subject & title, I felt it could be likely to have them referred to using capital letters as if it were a name. The only thing that throws a wrench into this is the existence of a comma in See No Evil, Hear No Evil. The movie poster did have the stylized comma, so with all of it put together it could potentially be just specific enough to refer to the movie. My perspective was that it still wouldn't be, as the three monkeys would collect a lot of different spelling variations to those who don't already know what the name of the article is called. (Especially because the three monkeys article gets 330x more monthly pageviews than the film does). If anyone feels strongly, I suppose an RM could be opened for it. Utopes (talk / cont)

Omaha Club
Thank you for your feedback. I take your point there is not currently much information available online through a cursory search. The club closed in the year 2000, when the Internet was immature. Wikipedia explains, "During the first decade or so of the public Internet, the immense changes it would eventually enable in the 2000s were still nascent."

At the time it closed, the Omaha Club had been a fixture in the Omaha social scene for 117 years. Compared to its peers with Wikipedia pages, "Omaha Country Club" and "Field Club, Omaha, Nebraska", the Omaha Club was preeminent. I wanted to submit this new page to establish a presence on the Internet which highlights the notability of the Omaha Club during its heyday.

Please consider my feedback.

Sincerely, Nick Manhart Cheyhart (talk) 22:54, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello ! Thank you for responding in regards to the draft (Draft:Omaha Club) you've been working on. I can see that there was a lot of time and effort that went into this, so I do want to preface that it was quite well-written, and well done! The main obstacle that I was stuck at was determining the notability of the Omaha Club, and figuring out whether or not this information can be covered in an existing article or not. And, while searching for many different keywords, I couldn't find anything easily at first that could prove its existence. Which, because it dissolved in 2000, that makes perfect sense why there wouldn't be much online coverage, and I am going to trust you and believe that it does exist.
 * Still though, just because something exists doesn't mean it is necessarily notable. If, for example, all the coverage (online or offline) was simply routine coverage or run of the mill, then notability may not quite be established for this topic. You're more than able to use offline sources, especially when it may be the easiest option for a club that dissolved in 2000, but the notability requirement still needs to be met.
 * Now, based on what I've seen so far about this topic, I believe there's a high likelihood that it IS notable. But there are some specific issues are in the way:
 * Reference #1 & 3 could definitely use a year attached. "April 10th" does not give much information.
 * Reference #2 seems to point towards an invalid ISBN number. It could be correct and I could be wrong, but nothing comes up in the catalog.
 * The inputted coordinates / geolocation in the infobox point towards a field in northern China.
 * These made it hard to verify the correctness of the information. I'm assuming this is correct and written in good faith, but some reassurance that "yes this does exist" is what I was hoping to find during the reviewing process. It is optional though, but yes, knowing that the offline sources are valid and operable is my main hope for this draft.
 * Thank you for working on this; it does look good for the most part, so keep it up! I believe there will be a spot in Wikipedia for it soon. Utopes (talk / cont) 00:06, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
 * UTOPES,
 * I am very appreciative of your thoughtful feedback. All of it is reasonable and helpful. As you can see by my editing history, I am still a novice at this process, and I have much to learn. To address your three points above:
 * 1. My mistake for not including the year... I added "1983" to the footnotes.
 * 2. This is a mystery. I have triple checked the ISBN listed on the title page of the book and have typed it correctly, but the ISBN database does not recognize it. Here is a listing for the book on Google Books: https://books.google.com/books/about/Thomas_Rogers_Kimball.html?id=lSRSvQEACAAJ
 * 3. I deleted the coordinates because I don't know how to write the code for that feature. The page will be fine without it.
 * I am happy to address any other issues you find with this page. Thank you again for your critique.
 * My best,
 * Nick Cheyhart (talk) 13:15, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello, thank you for resubmitting the draft! (I presume it was you who resubmitted). I see you have added the years to the first reference point, so thank you for that. As for finding version of the next reference on Google Books, it would be good to have that listed in the article with the Google Books entry. I think that step has also been done, so thank you.
 * For the coordinates, don't worry if you're unsure how to write the code for it; there are a couple options here. If you know what the coordinates ARE, I can go ahead and add them for you. There are a few different ways of finding coordinates, located at this page for obtaining geographical coordinates. It would be a shame to lose the information due to template issues, so please let me know if there's anything I can do to help on that front!
 * With all of this being said, I think I'm going to leave the act of re-reviewing to a different AfC reviewer, as I have already said my piece and it may be worth having another set of eyes to figure out the case behind this article. Thank you for your patience and effort in this matter! Utopes (talk / cont) 22:13, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

iPhone 15
Please see WP:CRYSTALBALL. We should not deal in rumors or speculation, and much of that article is written matter-of-factly based purely on rumor and speculation. I'd advise moving it back until the announcement is complete in about two hours... —Locke Cole • t • c 15:10, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Unreleased products can be absolutely in mainspace if it is both notable as an unreleased product, and if it has received significant coverage from reliable sources as an unreleased product, per WP:TOOSOON. This is a notable product as this has been covered by every major news outlet for a release today, and the coverage is reliable and significant that "Yes this is an upcoming product that is speculated to be unveiled at any minute". This is breaking news at this point. The core purpose of AfC for approving documents, from WP:AFCPURPOSE, is for approving articles which are notable and verifiable enough to survive AfD, which this clearly will. Draftifying this article does not serve the editors and readers who could be interested in this unreleased product, and out of the 3800 other AfC drafts that are present, this article will absolutely be fine on its own two feet in mainspace. The Apple event is happening now. Utopes (talk / cont) 17:21, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * It is happening now, and none of what the article has listed has been announced. WP:CRYSTALBALL is policy for a reason. We don't, emphatically, deal in rumors or speculation. —Locke Cole • t • c 17:24, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Per WP:CRYSTALBALL:
 * "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place."
 * This event is not only scheduled, it is already happening and will continue to do so.
 * "Individual items from a predetermined list or a systematic pattern of names, pre-assigned to future events or discoveries, are not suitable article topics, if only generic information is known about the item."
 * I'm not approving iPhone 24, nor am I even approving iPhone 16. I agree these completely fall into WP:CRYSTAL, entirely in that regard. On the contrary, iPhone 15 has been the talk of all the secondary, independent news organizations covering this release, from Apple being required to use the USB-C, and the dynamic island changes and all of the recent coverage from a couple days leading up until this event, and likely 50 new valid sources which could be implemented at editor's own discretion.
 * "Articles that present original research in the form of extrapolation, speculation, and "future history" are inappropriate."
 * This is no longer future history, this is now history as an ongoing news event. While the article has issues, it is not unfixable and will be sorted out within the next couple hours or so.
 * In any situation, I don't disagree that the article has original research problems, because it definitely does. But the point of AfC is not to only release Good Article quality or higher, it's about approving notable topics for continuous improvement by mainspace editors. I feel this article would be more useful in mainspace for anyone to see and edit rather than being locked in draft form to clog up draftspace-reviewers, despite this topic being absolutely notable.

 * I'm not sure if you're just not understanding or just being deliberately obtuse, but at the time this was being moved into main-space, none of the colors or other features shown in the drafts that were only attributable to rumors were not appropriate for mainspace per WP:CRYSTALBALL. CRYSTALBALL applies not only to articles but also to content within articles. Yes, of course a new iPhone is expected today. However an entire article founded only on rumors and speculation is not appropriate. —Locke Cole • t • c 17:45, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm not going to move it back to mainspace. I'll leave that to someone else. Per WP:AFCPURPOSE, halo effects should not sway the ultimate decision about the actual article (and whether it is notable & would survive AfD), which can then be tagged appropriately as speculation and original research upon movement into mainspace. Even though the content had included speculative information, the document still contained (and still contains) significant coverage from reliable sources, met the WP:GNG, and would absolutely survive AfD. Further refinements would, and absolutely are/will be via this Apple Event, occurring as we speak. (The iPhone 15 was unveiled 10 minutes ago) Utopes (talk / cont) 17:57, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Articles are routinely deleted per WP:CRYSTALBALL, it is not a "halo effect". I won't debate the matter with you further as it's moot now that the announcement is complete. But in the future, I'd advise waiting until the event has either completed or if you want to follow along, until the actual announcement of a specific product has been made. It's not a race, and it feels like some editors (not saying you specifically) want to somehow be "first to the finish" on these. —Locke Cole • t • c 18:25, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
