Adulf mcEtulfe hoax?[edit]

Why have you listed my article as a hoax? GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 13:02, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Because I can’t find any sources supporting it and it contradicts sourced articles on the topic we already have. Mccapra (talk) 13:04, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    What sourced articles do we already have that it contradicts? I did not intend to put false information on Wikipedia, if I have then I apologise. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 13:08, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024[edit]

Hello Mccapra,

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 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:

About Qingshui metro station article[edit]

Hello,

Please don't worry, I'm just learning to edit articles (like as Qingshui metro station). BartkovskyMc (talk) 14:03, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A cup of tea for you![edit]

thanks for your contributions! :) xRozuRozu (tc) 03:25, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nice to meet you[edit]

We just met at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/New Capital Sports Hall I see youre a new page reviewer - could I send you a couple of drafts I created to take a look at? Theyre awaiting review. MaskedSinger (talk) 16:52, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hi yes if you like. I’m only intermittently active as a page reviewer and if your articles are sport-related I won’t review them, but no harm in having a look. Mccapra (talk) 04:58, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
thanks. one is sport related, she does taekwondo. the other is Draft:Logan Levkoff. MaskedSinger (talk) 05:03, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ok well my view is that notability is doubtful in the case of Logan Levkoff based on the current sourcing. If there were some quality reviews of her books that would change my view. Mccapra (talk) 17:17, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ok. thanks for that. ill look MaskedSinger (talk) 17:47, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
i found these

not a review but found it while looking for others
https://www.nationalreview.com/the-home-front/are-real-women-liberal-suzanne-venker/
would you classify these as quality reviews? MaskedSinger (talk) 17:50, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Goodreads and other UGC sites are never acceptable as sources to support notability but yes the others are good and I think will make this subject a pass under WP:AUTHOR. If you add them in (not Goodreads!) I’ll complete the review. Mccapra (talk) 20:24, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
super. thankyou! i will do it tomorrow. much appreciated. thanks for your terrific counsel and guidance. MaskedSinger (talk) 20:41, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
good morning. just added. MaskedSinger (talk) 04:51, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just discovered that the page has been protected so it can only be moved by an admin so I’m afraid I cam’t move it. Sorry. Mccapra (talk) 06:40, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ok no problem. are you able to let one of them know? MaskedSinger (talk) 07:50, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Actually I am going to leave it. If it has been move-protected that means there is a contentious past history of editing on this topic so the best thing is just to wait till the AfC reviewers reach it and do their work. Mccapra (talk) 11:39, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ok. thankyou. the issues were 11 years ago. MaskedSinger (talk) 12:00, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kindly help review my page[edit]

Hi @Mccapra nice meeting you, pls can you kindly help me review this new page I just created Eko Heritage Awards, I think its meets all notability guidelines and has no errors. Thanks Nenub (talk) 10:05, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
