New Pages Patrol newsletter June 2023
[edit]Hello Filmssssssssssss,

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 Hey man im josh who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by Meena and Greyzxq with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See 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 here.
WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team, consisting of Sam, Jason and Susana, and also some patches from Jon, has been hard at work 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 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 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 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).

Many PROD for schools and universities
[edit]Hello, Good Day, see you are PROD-ing many articles quickly. Just at 16:11, 28 May 2026 you PROD-ed three articles. Are you searching for sources and references before PROD-ing this fast? What should be useful: not just checking the references present (or not present) in an article, many of the articles were create years (if not decade ago). Then NSCHOOL notability was also different. Very possibly new references might have been published after that. So some time can be spent to improve/expand/save the articles if that's possible. Regards. --Titodutta (talk) 17:49, 28 May 2026 (UTC)
- @Titodutta thank you for the message, I will slow down my PROD-ing to more thoroughly check for sources. I just happened to notice that many of these articles are lacking sources or at best have sources that are simply institution rankings or from the institution itself. I understand your concern though (and others before) and will keep these in mind. Thanks, Filmssssssssssss (talk) 17:59, 28 May 2026 (UTC)

Re: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sambalpur University Institute of Information Technology (2nd nomination)
[edit]Hey there! Just wanted to give you a heads up that it looked like this AfD was missing {{Afd bottom}} and there was a formatting error with a heading from the strikeout. The strikeout was didn’t cause any big issues but I think the missing template meant that it sorta “bled over” onto some unrelated AfDs on the log. I fixed this on the discussion itself so it should be good to go. Netstars22 (talk to me!) 03:54, 5 July 2026 (UTC)
Articles for Creation backlog drive
[edit]
Hello Filmssssssssssss:
WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in August!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than a month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 August 2026 through 31 August 2026.
You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.
Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 5000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:37, 19 July 2026 (UTC)
- If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page.
Some for school AFDs
[edit]I noticed you nominated Bright School, Vadodara for nomination and I agree that it fails WP:NSCHOOL. I have nominated a few more schools as they mostly rely on primary source and don't establish notability. Would appreciate your input on those AFDs as well. You can see my nominations here 10:36, 2 August 2026 (UTC)
