'''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 {{Noping|Hey man im josh}} who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by {{noping|Meena}} and {{noping|Greyzxq}} with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/May 2023|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.
== Quick question ==
 
'''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 [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect autopatrol list#Requests|here]].

'''WMF work on PageTriage''': The [[mw:Moderator Tools|WMF Moderator Tools team]], consisting of {{noping|Samwalton9 (WMF)|label1=Sam|JSherman (WMF)|label2=Jason|SCardenas (WMF)|label3=Susana}}, and also some patches from {{noping|Jon (WMF)|label1=Jon}}, has been hard at work [[Wikipedia:Page Curation/2023 Moderator Tools project|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 [[WP:AFCH|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 [[WP:DRAFTOBJECT|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.
== CCI Me123 ==
Ovinus, how are you handling the Revdels? I am trying to use the script recommended by [[User:Diannaa]] at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Diannaa#ME123_CCI this talk discussion], but it is driving me nuts and really slowing me down. I am spending more time trying to figure out how to get an admin to revdel the copyvios than I am on the actual copyvios. [[User:SandyGeorgia|'''Sandy'''<span style="color: green;">Georgia</span>]] ([[User talk:SandyGeorgia|Talk]]) 09:09, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
:Hi [[User:SandyGeorgia|Sandy]], yeah it's a little confusing. For now I just find the ID of the first offending revision (usually by Martinevans, but potentially by someone else) and plop at the top <code><nowiki>{{copyvio-revdel|start=<id>|end=<current id, or whatever id you removed the violation>|url=[optional url] (see <CCI link>) }}</nowiki></code> Most of my revdel requests have been declined due to age, tho. I am new to all this as well, so idk if that's best practice. (And I'm a little disillusioned by it all...!) Thank you for helping out! [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 17:44, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
::I have been using the script recommended by Diannaa on her talk, but can't figure out the end id; it seems to get it wrong most of the time, so I must be misunderstanding. I don't request revdel on the very old ones (Dianna says more than 50 revisions). Maybe I should start adding the template manually, but the script also places a notice on article talk, which I like. {{pb}} While I'm here ... I know I still owe you a response on a very old query about article leads ... shiny things keep getting in the way, and the lacks of strenuous review of leads at FAC has so demotivated me, along with other FAC factors, that I have mostly disengaged there ... would LOVE to have you review FAR leads!. Is there more you still want to know, or should I archive that old thread on my talk? First, I had my son's wedding ... then a family medical issue ... and now both dear hubby and I have COVID, so it's always something! [[User:SandyGeorgia|'''Sandy'''<span style="color: green;">Georgia</span>]] ([[User talk:SandyGeorgia|Talk]]) 17:59, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
::PS, re disillusionment, yes CCI work is soul-crushing ... I have engaged mostly because it's semi-automatic work I can do while I have COVID brain fog, where I don't dare go do a major review of a FAR. [[User:SandyGeorgia|'''Sandy'''<span style="color: green;">Georgia</span>]] ([[User talk:SandyGeorgia|Talk]]) 18:00, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
:::{{Ping|SandyGeorgia}} I think the "end id" is the first edit on which the copyvio was removed, or rendered negligibly small. There's no point revision deleting text unless it is expunged from the intermediate edits as well. So usually that end id is you or me removing the content, or someone else who eventually removed it. As to identifying that edit... unless there's a tool for that, the simplest way is a [[binary search]], I guess, informed by edit sizes.
:::''Sigh'' indeed CCI is pain. I think I have similar motivations; too tired to contribute substantial content, but still wanting to contribute how I can. Sorry to hear you and your husband have been sick; I wish you and him a speedy recovery. And thanks for remembering that question! Certainly you can archive it. FAR actually seems like a good place to get leads into shape, especially when it's on an important article. I'm not sure how rigorously leads are reviewed at FAC, but I deinitely notice that leads tend to deteriorate much faster than the rest of an FA. Editors, at least the more pedantic or fanatic among them, see a yummy article like [[Solar eclipse]], [[Pi]], etc. and feel emboldened to add something to the lead. I can't believe that the introduction of [[Pi]] for a while was <blockquote>The number '''π''' (spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 3.14159. It is defined in Euclidean geometry[a] as the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, and also has various equivalent definitions.</blockquote> No. No. No. (For reference, in more advanced mathematics pi is generally defined without reference to geometry. But that has no place in the first sentence of one of the most important constants in mathematics, which we learn about in grade school, and the clarification that it's ''Euclidean'' geometry is risible. Pedantry, pedantry of the highest order.) So I replaced it with something nearly word-for-word identical with the version reviewed at FAC, which is <blockquote>The number π (spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159.</blockquote> I hope you'll agree with me that's better. :) [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 19:21, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
::::Much improved! The problem with most of our math articles isn't the math; it's the english (I've said that before). In almost all of their leads, one can go to any basic website and find better information than what is in our leads! I'll keep trying to use the script to get the revdel ranges, but it has a toggle about using or not the "end" diff, which I seem to be too dense to sort. Bst, [[User:SandyGeorgia|'''Sandy'''<span style="color: green;">Georgia</span>]] ([[User talk:SandyGeorgia|Talk]]) 19:24, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
:::::No kidding... articles written by mathematicians, for mathematicians. At GAN I've been pleasantly surprised by David Eppstein's work on making math articles digestible. I try to do my part when browsing math articles, too, but I'm not a professional mathematician and it's dangerous to make sweeping edits to topics you don't deeply understand. Leads, though, leads... what percent of readers even glance at the body? I wish there were some statistics... [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 19:29, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
::::::Did you have the pleasure of interacting with {{u|Geometry guy}}? He was the unofficial leader of the GA process at one time, but scarcely edits now ... but he knew how to write math in English. [[User:SandyGeorgia|'''Sandy'''<span style="color: green;">Georgia</span>]] ([[User talk:SandyGeorgia|Talk]]) 19:33, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
:::::::I'm afraid I arrived here too late... that sucks that he's gone. I'll have to check out some of his work. The ability to explain math with clarity is rare and valuable; I try my best. I have a prospective draft at [[User:Ovinus/sandbox2]] that I dreamt of bringing to FAC, but I don't know the last time a math article even passed! One option to make everyone happy is liberal use of footnotes. That way the layman can get the main ideas, while the pedant can edit and enjoy the prolix and unintelligible footnotes. [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 19:56, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
::::::::That's a great idea (although for some odd reason, there are objections to the extensive footnotes at [[Joan of Arc]]'s FAR). When I am over COVID and caught up, will you ping my talk page for me look more closely at your draft? (Because I lose track and get caught up in shiny things :). Right now, my sleep cycles are so out of whack I don't know when I'll "normalize", and once I get out of quarantine, I have real life stuff to catch up on ... [[User:SandyGeorgia|'''Sandy'''<span style="color: green;">Georgia</span>]] ([[User talk:SandyGeorgia|Talk]]) 20:11, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
:::::::::You can never make everyone happy, can you?? :P Sounds good, although it still needs a lot of work. I occasionally give math- and CS-related talks to middle and high school students—the latter group, at least the subset of them interested in mathematics, is a good target for the leads of many of these articles—and I'm always learning how to better explain ideas. But if I explain at a similar level, it will be considered too imprecise, even if I'm careful to not oversimplify to the point of being erroneous. Ahhhhhh. Sounds good—again, feel better and thanks for your help at the CCI. :) [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 20:20, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

'''Reminders'''
Hi Ovinus. Your account has been added to the "<code>New page reviewers</code>" user group. Please check back at [[WP:PERM]] in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as [[meta:Help:Patrolled edit|patrolled]], tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the [[Special:NewPagesFeed|'''New Pages Feed''']]. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you '''must''' read the tutorial at [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol|New Pages Review]], the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion policy]]. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''new page reviewer talk page''']]. In addition, please remember:
*Newsletter feedback - please take this [[Wikipedia_talk:New_pages_patrol/Newsletter|short poll]] about the newsletter.
*[[Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers|Be nice to new editors]]. They are [[WP:AGF|usually]] not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
*There is live chat with patrollers on the [https://discordapp.com/invite/heF3xPu New Page Patrol Discord] and {{IRC|wikimedia-npp}} on IRC.
*You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
*Please add [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|the project discussion page]] to your watchlist.
*If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.

[[File:NPP backlogunreviewed Augustarticle 2022statistics as of September 22, 2023.jpgpng|thumb|400px|New Page Review article queue, March to AugustSeptember 20222023]]
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},
 
;'''Backlog statusupdate:'''
At the time of this message, there are ''11,300'' articles and ''15,600'' redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!
After the last newsletter (No.28, June 2022), the backlog declined another 1,000 to 13,000 in the last week of June. Then the July backlog drive began, during which 9,900 articles were reviewed and the backlog fell by 4,500 to just under 8,500 (these numbers illustrate how many new articles regularly flow into the queue). Thanks go to the coordinators {{u|Buidhe}} and {{u|Zippybonzo}}, as well as all the nearly 100 participants. Congratulations to {{u|Dr vulpes}} who led with 880 points. See [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/July 2022|this page]] for further details.
 
'''October backlog elimination drive''':
Unfortunately, most of the decline happened in the first half of the month, and the backlog has already risen to 9,600. Understandably, it seems many backlog drive participants are taking a break from reviewing and unfortunately, we are not even keeping up with the inflow let alone driving it lower. We need the '''other 600 reviewers''' to do more! Please try to do at least '''one a day'''.
A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/October 2023/Participants|sign up here]].
 
'''PageTriage code upgrades''':
;Coordination: {{u|MB}} and {{u|Novem Linguae}} have taken on some of the coordination tasks. Please let them know if you are interested in helping out. {{u|MPGuy2824}} will be handling recognition, and will be retroactively awarding the annual barnstars that have not been issued for a few years.
Upgrades to the [[mw:Extension:PageTriage|PageTriage]] code, initiated by the [[Wikipedia:NPPWMF|NPP open letter]] in 2022 and actioned by the [[mw:Moderator_Tools|WMF Moderator Tools Team]] in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found [[Wikipedia:Page Curation/2023 Moderator Tools project|here]]. As part of this work, the [[Special:NewPagesFeed]] now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:NewPagesFeed?ui_version=1 here] - it will replace the current version soon.
 
'''Notability tip''':
;Open letter to the WMF: The Page Curation software needs urgent attention. There are dozens of bug fixes and enhancements that are stalled (listed at [[Wikipedia:Page Curation/Suggested improvements|Suggested improvements]]). We have written a letter to be sent to the WMF and we encourage as many patrollers as possible to sign it [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Coordination/2022 WMF letter|here]]. We are also in negotiation with the Board of Trustees to press for assistance. Better software will make the active reviewers we have more productive.
Professors can meet [[WP:PROF]] #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their [[Google Scholar]] or [[Scopus]] profile and take a look at their [[h-index]] and number of citations. As a ''very rough'' rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of [[h-index#Examples|twenty or more]], a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.
 
;TIP - Reviewing by subject: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages by their most familiar subjects can do so from the regularly updated [[User:SDZeroBot/NPP sorting|sorted topic list]].
 
[[File:NPPSCrossDarkBlue&LightBlue.png|right|70px]]
;New reviewers: The [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/School|NPP School]] is being underused. The learning curve for NPP is quite steep, but a detailed and easy-to-read [[WP:NPP|tutorial]] exists, and the Curation Tool's many features are fully described and illustrated on the updated page [[Wikipedia:Page Curation/Help|'''here''']].
 
'''Reviewing tip''':
If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use [https://discordapp.com/invite/heF3xPu Discord] voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.
{{refbegin}}
;'''Reminders:'''
*You can access live chat with patrollers on the [https://discordapp.com/invite/heF3xPu New Page Patrol Discord].
*Consider staying informed on project issues by putting [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|the project discussion page]] on your watchlist.
*Consider adding [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|the project discussion page]] to your watchlist.
*If you have noticed a user with a ''good'' understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, suggest they help the effort by placing {{tq|<nowiki>{{subst:NPR invite}}</nowiki>}} on their talk page.
*To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers/Newsletter list|here]].
*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 and its software.

Hello Ovinus:
 
'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation|WikiProject Articles for creation]]''' is holding a '''month long [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/November 2023 Backlog Drive|Backlog Drive]]!'''<br />
==Draftification==
The goal of this drive is to '''reduce''' the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 2 months outstanding reviews from the current 4+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 November 2023 through 30 November 2023.
Hello, Ovinus,
 
You may find [[:Category:AfC pending submissions by age]] or [[:Category:Pending AfC submissions|other categories and sorting]] helpful.
There was a recent RFC discussion at the Village Pump earlier this year that stipulated that only recently created articles should be moved to Draft space. The rule of thumb about what "recent" means is 3-6 months old or younger. Definitely not articles that were created in 2009. So, please do not move older articles to Draft space that shouldn't go there. If you believe an article is inappropriate, then either improve it yourself or tag it for an approved form of deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/CFD/etc.). Thank you. <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 02:24, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.<br />

There is a backlog of over {{Rounddown|{{formatnum:{{PAGESINCATEGORY:Pending AfC submissions}}|R}}|-2}} pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help!

Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}},
'''Backlog update:''' The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to {{no ping|Schminnte}}, who led with over 2,300 points.
 
Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to {{no ping|JTtheOG}}, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.
 
Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers#Next backlog drive|May backlog drive planning discussion]].
 
It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!
 
'''2023 Awards'''
[[File:New page reviewer of the year cup.svg|74px|left]]
{{no ping|Onel5969}} won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. {{no ping|Hey man im josh}} led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Awards|Awards page]] and the [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Awards#NPP Hall of Fame|Hall of Fame]]. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!
 
'''WMF work on PageTriage:''' The [[:mw:Moderator Tools|WMF Moderator Tools team]] and volunteer software developers [[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/PageTriage/+/966286|deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October]], and then [[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/PageTriage/+/967661|gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November]]. This concludes most major work to [[Special:NewPagesFeed]], and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who [[Wikipedia:Page Curation/2023 Moderator Tools project#October 20, 2023: Final update!|wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October]]. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.
 
'''Recruitment:''' A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.
 
'''Reviewing tip:''' Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated [https://nppbrowser.toolforge.org/ NPP Browser] tool.
 
{{refbegin}}
'''Reminders:'''
* You can access live chat with patrollers on the [https://discordapp.com/invite/heF3xPu New Pages Patrol Discord].
* Consider adding [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|the project discussion page]] to your watchlist.

Hi, Ovinus--
 
On the chance that you contributed the flugelhorn and trumpet excerpts on the [[flugelhorn]] page, it seems worth reiterating my gratitude and respect for those contributions. In that article's [[Talk:Flugelhorn#improve_comparison_recordings?]] I whined that the excerpts sound similar to me, but any avenue is welcome towards reducing offending whoever did all that work.
