== TipsPi forand reviewing GAmath ==
 
I occasionally come out of hibernation and saw a notification from when you were working on [[Pi]]. It is great that it is now a featured article. ''[[User talk:Geometry guy|Geometry guy]]'' 22:46, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
@[[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] Hello. I've seen you have much more experience in reviewing GA Mathematics articles. I am still new, and I have no idea what to do. Any tips? Honestly, I don't mean to request a second opinion in [[Talk:Triaugmented triangular prism/GA1]], but I would like to question for tips just in case. [[User:Dedhert.Jr|Dedhert.Jr]] ([[User talk:Dedhert.Jr|talk]]) 11:35, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Dedhert.Jr}} Hey! First of all, don't sweat it; it's just an article review. You can always ask for a second opinion, and David's articles are usually excellent, so there's little risk of rubber stamping something problematic. I think the way I review depends on the article. For something like [[Triaugmented triangular prism]], where in principle some of the material should be accessible to a high schooler, my main focus is accessibility. Obviously, you can't make ''everything'' super simple. But if there's something that you understand that could be said clearer, note that.
:Writing Wikipedia math articles is very hard; most general encyclopedias shy away from any equation involving more than a dozen symbols, while many specialist encyclopedias throw accessibility to the wind (c.f. ''Encyclopedia of Mathematics''). Reviewing them is similarly tricky, especially if you're missing a lot of background—that's often me.
:You can also consider images. For example, one image that comes to mind which would enliven that article would be a picture of that decomposition of the shape into a prism and three pyramids; that can be tricky to visualize. <small>If I could remember how to use [[Blender (software)|Blender]] I'd make one myself....</small> You can drive-by comment on existing GANs—for example, [[Unit distance graph]]. And of course, next time you can always try easier articles, especially ones which are in topics you are already familiar with. That's why the sorting GANs by topic exists.
:Happy editing! [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 18:53, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
::[[User:Ovinus|@Ovinus]] Thanks for the tips. However, I am not 100% sure can understand lots of technical, since I can only and try to understand it. Isn't that my mistake while reviewing? Beside, what do you mean ''accessability'' here? And how is it related to high schooler? [[User:Dedhert.Jr|Dedhert.Jr]] ([[User talk:Dedhert.Jr|talk]]) 22:16, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
:::If you feel you can't give a complete review, you can mark it for a second opinion. [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 23:48, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
::::Thank you. Am I still allowed to ask during the second opinion? [[User:Dedhert.Jr|Dedhert.Jr]] ([[User talk:Dedhert.Jr|talk]]) 23:59, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
:::::You can comment as you please, of course. (By "accessibility" I mean "readability": Can a high school senior who likes math understand what's going on? If not, can the material be explained in reasonable space, at that level? Or is it simply too recondite?) [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 03:55, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
::::::As a reviewer like you, does a reviewer have to be expert in any mathematical fields before reviewing? I can only tell that I am actually not expert in it. [[User:Dedhert.Jr|Dedhert.Jr]] ([[User talk:Dedhert.Jr|talk]]) 11:42, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
:::::::No, I'm not an expert in any (sub)field. [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 18:01, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
::::::::Okay, thanks a lot. I have request the second opinion in [[Talk:Triaugmented triangular prism/GA1]]. I will put secnod opinion in talk page as well. [[User:Dedhert.Jr|Dedhert.Jr]] ([[User talk:Dedhert.Jr|talk]]) 23:50, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
 
:Indeed, although I had no hand in bringing it to FA... Just trying to keep the lead from bloating too much.... Glad to see you out of hibernation! :) [[User:Ovinus|Ovinus]] ([[User talk:Ovinus#top|talk]]) 00:23, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

'''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.
 
'''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.
 
'''Pro tip''': Did you know that visual artists such as painters have their own [[WP:SNG|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).

'''Backlog update:'''
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!
 
'''October backlog elimination drive''':
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''':
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''':
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.
 
'''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.

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 />
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.
 
You may find [[:Category:AfC pending submissions by age]] or [[:Category:Pending AfC submissions|other categories and sorting]] helpful.
 
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. My name is Amber and I work for [[Yelp]]. I disclosed a conflict of interest and proposed a few changes at [[Talk:Yelp#Requested_Updates]]. I was hoping you might be willing to take a look. It appears as though in prior years Yelp collaborated with {{ping|Protonk}}, who did the GA review of a prior version of the page. However, Protonk appears to have retired a few months back.

[[File:NPP unreviewed article statistics as of April 2, 2024.svg|thumb|400px|New Page Review queue January to March 2024]]
 
'''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.

== respect for flugelhorn / trumpet exerpts ==
 
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.
