Every time you read an article on Wikipedia, remember that the only reason it exists is because someone gave enough of a damn and two thoughts about what you care about to put it there.

Hello Dan arndt,

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.

I understand your intention, and it's important to clarify that my role is to provide assistance and ensure that the content meets certain guidelines and standards. While your article provides information about Arushi Nishank and her accomplishments, it's important to ensure that it adheres to the guidelines and does not appear to be promotional in nature.

To improve the article's presentation, you may want to focus on presenting the information in a more neutral and objective manner. This could involve avoiding language that appears overly promotional or biased, and instead, presenting the facts in a straightforward and factual manner.

Once you've made any necessary revisions, feel free to share the article again for further feedback or approval. Thank you for your understanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atlantis7807 (talk • contribs) 17:01, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I thought biographies use the common, not legal name of their subject, e.g. George Orwell over Eric Arthur Blair. 10/13 of the sources on the page primarily refer to her as "B.E. Boykin", which is also the name she publishes her music under. A quick Google Search confirms this.
However, I wanted to ask if there was any further reason before simply reverting your edit.
Thanks, JacobTheRox (talk) 09:07, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Dan arndt. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Marina Kazimirovna Osipova".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 07:34, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
