The July 2022 New Page Patrol Backlog Drive was a one-month-long effort to reduce the backlog of the new pages patrol feed. The co-ordinators for this drive were Buidhe and Zippybonzo. The drive began on 1 July 2022 and ended on 31 July 2022. Awards were given out to those individuals who did the most work in helping reduce the size of the backlog.

Basic guidelines

 * 1) Points: Points were calculated based on the 30-day total according to the leaderboard. It was updated by TolBot Task 8, which counts patrol, draftification, and deletion nomination, but can only detect deletion nominations when performed with the Page Curation tool. CSD logs made by Twinkle, were also accepted, based on the principle of good faith.
 * 2) Re-reviewing: As usual, rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. To ensure quality reviews, we gave credit to re-reviews, with the aim that everyone completes around 10% as many re-reviews as reviews, and around 10% of each person's reviews are re-reviewed.
