New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024
Hello Whpq,
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 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 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 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
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. Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!
WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then 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 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 NPP Browser tool.
Reminders:
- You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
- Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
- To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Irish in Britain Representation Group draft page
Please reinstate the full draft, all the material quoted or drawn on for the page comes from the IBRG archives 1981 to 2000 which have been posted publicly previously on the Lipstick Socialist blog, run by IBRG member Bernadette Hyland, who created the IBRG wiikpedia draft. We are not contraveing copyright , all the material belongs to IBRG. We have no idea who the Anarchist Federation are, mentioned in the reason for deletion... they ,nothing to with IBRG but they have reposted posts that appeared first on the Lipstick Socialist posted by Bernadeette Hyland and written by IBRG member Patrick Reynolds So if anyone has contravened copyright it is this organisation . .

See this
[1] and this. Looks like someone is rushing toward ECP? Doug Weller talk 14:26, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
- It sure does. I see you've expanded the block. -- Whpq (talk) 01:56, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
- They had enough edits anyway, I can't figure out why but they clearly don't have a clue about how Wikipedia works and what's expected from editors. Doug Weller talk 06:59, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
Re: File:Norman Lowell campaigning in 2019 MEP election.png
Why was my dispute in the talk page of this file regarding it totally ignored and the image deleted anyway without addressing my dispute?
Mtonna257 (talk) 15:13, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
- The deleting admin was User:Explicit so they would need to give you the official answer. But my likely accurate guess is that they did not ignore your dispute rationale. It's simply that it failed to convincingly address the reason for deletion. WP:NFC is pretty clear on this with
Non-free content should not be used when a freely licensed file that serves the same purpose can reasonably be expected to be uploaded, as is the case for almost all portraits of living people.

I'm working on adding sources to the article right now. Someone just nominated the article for speedy deletion once again, though. Could you please remove their speedy deletion tag for the second time?--LadybugStardust (talk) 03:37, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
deletion of Copy notation
You deleted my article Copy notation as invented but I didn't invent it, and it is in the Approximations section in User:JrandWP/Twenty-twos — Preceding unsigned comment added by Numspan33 (talk • contribs) 20:48, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
- It is completely unsourced, and from what I could see, likely would remain that way. But, I've restored it to Draft:Copy notation so you can work on it. -- Whpq (talk) 21:00, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
