List of YouTubers

[edit]

There is another deletion discussion on List of YouTubers. If you would like to weigh in, you can do so by checking out the discussion here. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 06:52, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fishhead2100, I did it. Thanks for letting me know. This nomination seems to be pointless to me. But anyways! Dial911 (talk) 15:52, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. This is the seventh time it has been up for deletion. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 15:56, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Fishhead2100 Hopefully, this would be the seventh time it would be kept. Dial911 (talk) 16:02, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
We'll see. The same arguments are being made as in the previous deletion discussions. Notability is one again questioned, it shouldn't exist because a category exists, etc.. A category existing is not a good reason for a list to be deleted. There are lots of lists that exist alongside categories. I don't get why this list can't exist alongside a category. That logic is flawed. This list is heavily sourced unlike a lot of other lists. I get that the list is long and looking a splitting it into more specific lists such as vloggers, comedians, etc. might be the way to go. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 16:22, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

09:29:58, 22 May 2018 review of submission by Atul Anand TISS

[edit]


The draft article Gopal Narayan Authey is about a vernacular language writer from India. The article was rejected on the grounds of reliable sources. I have used BBC Hindi, Dainik Bhaskar (a popular Hindi language newspaper) and a published book as references. I am unable to find more reliable sources for the article as the writer is from a vernacular background. Please reconsider this submission. Atul Anand 09:29, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Atul Anand TISS, thanks for reaching out. Your draft has only primary sources (except for BBC Hindi and Dainik Bhaskar). BBC Hindi and Dainik Bhaskar do not cover about this person significantly, there are just passing mentions of the subject's name. In order to get a living person on Wikipedia, we require significant coverage of the person in reliable secondary sources. I am not quite confident enough to approve this one at the moment. However, my rejection does not imply that this draft can never be accepted. Try to find at least two more sources. You can also wait until he garners coverage. If a person can write 60 books, he can be doing something in the future that garners media coverage. Or if you are really eager to get this draft approved, you may try resubmitting it. Chances are it will get rejected again but then chances are someone might approve it too. I assure you that if resubmitted, I won't touch this draft. Dial911 (talk) 15:58, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Dial911, thank you for the response. I searched for recent press coverages and found two more sources from a newspaper Dainik Tribune and an online news portal Bhopal Samachar. I have added those sources to the article. Just one more query, Delhi Public Library is a government body, should its catalogue be considered as a reliable secondary source?

Atul Anand 17:17, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Atul Anand TISS, I am not that confident about this article surviving AfD. Again, I would suggest you to resubmit and see what other reviewers have to say. Chances are, it will be deleted but then again it might survive. I won't touch this in its present state, if resubmitted. Dial911 (talk) 17:14, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What kind of help you need from me? As far as I know, You already know how to write for Wikipedia. Anything specific you need help with? Dial911 (talk) 13:51, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I can write myself but I don't know how to write articles about popular youtubers without resources. Binamra Deb (talk) 16:32, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Without resources? Or sources? If there are no reliable secondary sources that testify what you claim in the article then unfortunately that article would not last longer on Wikipedia. Mere having 5 million subscribers would not get that person on Wikipedia unless some reliable sources say something about him. But you can try writing it in draft mode and then I will check it and see if I can find anything suitable. Dial911 (talk) 16:46, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lingalanga, Robots may take some time to index the page on Google. It will appear on it eventually. And I really appreciate your contribution on Wikipedia. Please bear in mind that I can only assist you while remaining inside the policy domain of Wikipedia. While I am assuming good faith that you are so excited about your contribution, I also want to caution you about conflict of interest. If you are writing about yourself or someone you personally know, you should tell that on the talk page of the Draft you are creating. Thanks! Dial911 (talk) 04:41, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Haha why would i write about my self am i notable or wat 04:47, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

But ill surely notify you when i start creating new articals — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lingalanga (talk • contribs) 04:48, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lingalanga, I will also suggest you work on your written English. If your draft has lots of errors or grammatical/spelling mistakes, chances are that reviewers will just bypass it, or reject it. Not many reviewers have time to fix these issues for you. Your draft was rejected because it was written in a promotional language. I removed that line and fixed some minor copy-edit issues and then accepted it. I won't be able to do that each time. Hope you get my point. Dial911 (talk) 04:54, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]


promotional language wat does it mean And i thank you for spending time for my artical.

I request you to just give a comment on my draft artical so that i my self ill improve it THANK YOU 09:45, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

Lingalanga, promotional language means that sentences which praise the subject for nothing or without any notable sources testifying that claim. And I just removed her photo from the article. I strongly recommend you not to claim and upload photos that are not your work as your work. And FYI it appears on google now. Dial911 (talk) 18:28, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[Notable sources] I gave notable sources i think. Besteditor (talk) 18:35, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lingalanga, you wrote this, "she was so successful that she has signed three films even before her debut movie released." Where as I corrected it and made it neutral and objective in tone as "She signed three films before her debut movie was released." See the difference? I didn't say she was So Successful or anything like that. Thus, you should not get overwhelmed and let yourself carried away by your personal emotions. Dial911 (talk) 19:04, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Got it man thank you Besteditor (talk) 19:08, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Can i add any other template so that other editors also can take a look of my page and correct.help me because i am currently editing an artical in my sand box Besteditor (talk) 19:13, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think there is a template that will allow editors and reviewers to see it in general. You can ask for help at WP:TEA and see if someone agrees to help you. If you are talking about Jahanvi, I would say it requires at least one more notable newspaper that has significantly covered her. Dial911 (talk) 19:22, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you dont mind please check her awards and nominations reference which i gave 

you can find her notability Besteditor (talk) 21:59, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lingalanga, Improve your referencing. Stand alone articles about people on Wikipedia require sources that discuss the subject and their work in detail. These actors fail WP:NACTOR as all news sources essentially focus on her death. Provide references that prove they were notable actors. If there are only sources that discuss the deaths of these actors then you don't need to work on these drafts as one can read and get information about their death from those articles on the internet. What's the point of having an encyclopedic biography of people without discussing their life and works? Hope you get the point. Dial911 (talk) 15:38, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

re: Draft:Bhurit Bhirombhakdi

[edit]

The page seems to have been abandoned by its original creators, there are some more sources that might be relevant. Some guidance on how to incorporate this, or what the process for working on abandoned work is, would be very much appreciated

The page doesn't seem to have abandoned. Instead the creator is actively trying to get this article on Wikipedia. I am still not fully convinced about the significant coverage part. The company is notable in Thailand for sure. The person had been mentioned in some sources, but it is more of a routine coverage where he has been contacted after his corporation made some moves in the market. I don't know this draft can be accepted based on all these sources. Or it may be given some time to improve sourcing. I am gonna leave it for someone else to review it. Dial911 (talk) 16:40, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

re: Draft:Omar El Abd

[edit]

Hello Dial911,

Recently my article was rejected, there is a bit of history behind it that i would like to clarify. This article was published on Wikipedia for a long time, for more than a year and a half.

Unfortunately someone deleted it because they thought it was copying text from Discogs, but it was the other way around, Discogs text was copied from the wiki page. The sources are very reliable and well-known in the this genre of music, TinyMixTapes, Madamasr, Ma3azef, CairoScene, Vital Weekly and much more, Here is some more: http://omarelabd.com/press/ Omar is the first ambient/experimental musician in Egypt to release music internationally on record labels such as Eilean Records and Dronarivm. You can buy his CD releases major distributors such as. Experimedia, Linus Records (Japan), StashedGoods (UK), Tower Records, Ultimaee Records, Norman Records and much more.

I am really hoping someone would look into this, a bit of research would confirm both the artist and sources are notable enough.

Thank you for your time. Have a great day. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wisemenandthepainters (talk • contribs) 09:40, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what the history was, and it doesn't matter now. The problem with this draft is no significant coverage about the person. I am sure he is a professional making some buzz in the world with his music but in order to get on to Wikipedia, a living person needs to have considerable amount of coverage in reliable sources. What I see in this draft are few press releases that are null and void, Interview (kinda semi-acceptable) and other sources about his music releases. I would be more comfortable accepting it if you could cite any newspaper, news channel or book that talks about the person and his music. Dial911 (talk) 15:40, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Thank you for your reply,

I totally understand that, i just want to clarify that Madamasr, ma3azef, CairoScene, are some of the biggest media coverage outlets in Egypt and the middle east, along with TinyMixTapes, i wanted to cite relevant sources according to the article information, i know most people won't hear about these sources as most of them are in Arabic but I'll try to work on citing more sources.

Thanks for your time again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wisemenandthepainters (talk • contribs) 18:49, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dial911,

I worked on the article, added a couple of more sources that fits the copy. Hope it is sufficient now, I feel the sources should be reliable now, Please let me know. Have a great day. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wisemenandthepainters (talk • contribs) 10:38, 12 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bear in mind that you should always sign your comments. I looked at the draft once again and found no significant improvement. Most of your sources are blogs and press releases and primary sources. A newspaper coverage, a book (even a paragraph in the book), peer-reviewed music journals and magazines, TV news coverage etc. can validate the notability. While I personally know that this guy has sung many songs as I have seen/listened to his soundcloud. However, for a Wikipedia article we need reliable, independent sources that significantly cover the person. Dial911 (talk) 15:21, 12 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You have a conflict of interest. Don't use Wikipedia for advertising and promotion purposes. It is highly discouraged to write about things you are associated with. Provide some reliable, secondary and independent sources and rewrite the entire article and submit a draft. A reviewer will then see if it meets our guidelines and it will be accepted then.

Thank you for the note

[edit]

Hello - I just received your note - thank you for reviewing my page. In response to your question, citations number 1, 2 and 10 on my article were articles that were fully about my subject - here they are again for your reference:

  • Van West, Patricia E. (September 1999). "Lina Trivedi – The First Beanie Poet & Webmaster". Becky and Becky's Beanie Mania. Beanie Mania LLC. 2 (1): 42–43. ISSN 1099-4874.
  • Bissonnette, Zac (March 2015). "The $12-per-hour Sociology Major Who Made Ty Warner a Billionaire". The Great Beanie Baby Bubble: Mass Delusion and the Dark Side of Cute. Penguin Books. p. 107–115. ISBN 1591846021.
  • Wolkoff, Melanie (December 2000). "The Girl With The Midas Touch, What Lina Trivedi Touches Turns to Gold – Just Ask Ty Warner". Mary Beth's Bean Bag World. H&S Media Incorporated. 4 (3): 56–59. ISSN 1520-7005.
  • NBC 15 (January 12, 2015). "Mom Invents Software Writing Tool 5pm Interview 1-12-15". Youtube.com. Retrieved June 16, 2018.

The magazine articles were 4 pages each and were interviews with the subject and the book was a full chapter written about the subject as well, in the citation, I cited pages 107-115, however that chapter was actually through page 136 where the subject's contributions to the Beanie Baby phenomenon were evaluated (not just mentioned). Can you please clarify how much more in depth I need to go in finding sources? I read the notability page on Wikipedia and I thought I had met that. The above articles have the subject's name right in the article titles, they were not just mentions of the subject, the entire article was about the subject - I wanted to get this article right before I submitted other ones to make sure that I am understanding the expectations correctly. Thank you for your help ...

Interviews are generally not accepted. Reference number one is not independent as the source has some association with Lina. Reference 2 (Penguin Books) can be counted towards notability. Reference three could also be accepted here. However, reference 4 is not acceptable. Had the video been uploaded by NBC's officially verified channel on YouTube, I would have deemed it legit. But Youtube videos in general are not acceptable. The video you provided is uploaded by non-verified channel on Youtube. That leaves me with 2 references. That big and long article can't be approved on the basis of these 2 references (that are yet to be verified). As per WP:AGF I can approve your draft only if you remove everything that does not have reliable, independent source. Dial911 (talk) 22:23, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]


  • Thanks for your response @Dial911: For the NBC video, I will see if I can find a copy of that video on their Web site. As for the first reference, Beanie Mania was a monthly magazine that ran for over 5 years, and to my knowledge, this was one of the only articles written about Trivedi - there is no indication that she had any link to this magazine. How would that link to the magazine be proven or disproven? Would a link to their staff or something like that be something I can reference in the citation? It is a great article that had some informative content so I would like to use it if at all possible. Please let me know - thank you for your help, I am trying to establish my research methods so that I do not run into the same issues with my next article. If I can reconcile the challenges with these references, would the amount of references i have be sufficient? Ronniebrown2 (talk · contribs) 19:11, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Ronniebrown2, Lina Trivedi did some work for the parent organisation of Beanie Mania. And maybe because of that, only one (Beanie Mania) magazine had a story on her. If someone is worthy of getting into encyclopedia, they sooner or later get covered by other reliable sources like books, peer-reviewed journals, newspapers, news channels etc. For example, we would not have articles on every realtor that appears (even if significantly) in real estate magazines. There has to be some other sources that testify the realtor's notability. Another example, we would not have wikipedia article about every pharmacist who is covered in some medicine related journal for once. Similarly, Lina Trivedi being associated with Ty and Beanie would have her stories covered by them. She would be notable only if other independent and reliable sources cover her significantly. And that doesn't seem to be the case with your draft as of now. Dial911 (talk) 00:42, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Your draft should be about Lina. Majority of the sources don't even mention Lina, forget about her significant coverage. If a source does not even mention Lina, what's the point of having it in the draft? You should do an extensive cleanup of your draft because it beats around the bush and sources do not indicate Lina's notability. Dial911 (talk) 01:18, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:17, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion regarding deletion and changing of page to Draft:Mona Mathews

[edit]

Hi Dial911, I had this following conversation regarding moving the page. You had asked for any news coverage on the person. Now I have added references to interviews done on national news sources online as you have asked.Kindly please review it and please approve the page or let me know if need further rectifications. Thanking you in advance.Following was the conversation I had with you.

Hi, I understand you have deleted the page and moved it into draft due to issues with references. I read about providing "Self-published or questionable sources as sources on themselves". So can I use this criteria to provide reference as of now or could you suggest me how I could reference the page better so that you will give me approval and help me pin point to the exact issue so that I can rectify the same for your approval hence not resulting in page deletion in the future. I really want to get it right before I submit for another review. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for reaching out. Read WP:COI WP:PAID first. You must disclose any affiliation with the subject. As far as references and verifiability are concerned, see WP:GNG WP:NACTOR. Feel free to ask anything you wish to ask. Thanks! Dial911 (talk) 02:23, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Thanks for the recommendation. I went through the material as you said and those are little bit difficult to understand. The thing is I am not paid to create a page on behalf of the person. I am just a fan who constantly follows the work and was really thrilled to start a wiki page about the person and this is the only page I have written. After I wrote to you I added more references than what I could manage previously. So can you kindly please check whether the references added are enough and what all I could do to get it published back again cause everything written there is fact. Thanks again.

Mm fantastic (talk) 02:36, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mm fantastic, There are no reliable sources provided. Is there any newspaper article about the person? Or news channel coverage? Dial911 (talk) 15:24, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request to review a submission at Articles for creation

[edit]

Hi Dial911,

I have been editing on Wikipedia for sometime but this is my 2nd attempt to create an article. You can find my submission about The/Nudge Foundation here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:The/Nudge_Foundation

However, it has been more than 8 weeks and the review has not taken place. I have attempted to put multiple credible sources including Indian and international outlets to verify the notability of the subject. Additionally, I am in no way associated with the subject matter involved, and this is an attempt to increase my submissions and contributions on Wikipedia.

Please let me know in case this article is good enough to be accepted according to Wiki guidelines. In case I need to make any improvements, I would appreciate support from your end.

Thanks a lot, in advance. ParadiseStark (talk) 11:49, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

ParadiseStark, Even before I could see your draft, it was accepted by another reviewer. Thanks for reaching out though and thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Dial911 (talk) 01:31, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks a lot for the help, Dial911. Will reach out again when I submit the next article. ParadiseStark (talk) 22:26, 17 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 19:43:05, 1 December 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by WikiCpa

[edit]


Dear Sir - This is in regards to my draft article. I wanted a clarification - you mentioned that you could not find a single source mentioning Late Vijey Kumar however I have provided several sources/references to original Military records of the Indian Army referencing his major role in the Pakistan battle which is the most significant for which he was awarded the PVSM medal.

So you have followed that up by stating specifically that you could not find any reference to his being in World War 2 - is this the specific reference you are looking for ? He was in the British Indian Army (not Indian Army - since this was prior to Independence) during the world war and we have his ORIGINAL medals with name inscribed if that could be provided as evidence - I have mentioned the following medals at serials 12 to 15 in the article that are relevant originals of which can be provided - 12. 1939-1945 Star World War II operational service between Sept 1939 and Sept 1945 13. The Italy Star Military Campaign medal awarded in May 1945 World Ward II specifically for the Italian Campaign 14. UK Defence Medal 1939-1945 Awarded for the Second world war campaign 15. War Medal 1939-1945

For specific links to sources where he is listed as an officer in WW2, I may need some time to research as data is not as easily available from that time. I may have to contact his regiment to issue a letter perhaps as they maintain the records. You will appreciate that Military officers from 1939 may not be in as many online sources so I look for your guidance in locating additional sources if you have them of WW2. A notable officer should not be excluded because we do not have online sources alone. Thank you for your consideration. Pls advise if only the WW2 record is what you need ? and whether the service even without teh WW2 record would qualify for publication (removing WW2 references) until I can locate sources. Thanks, WikiCpa (talk) 19:43, 1 December 2018 (UTC)WikiCpa[reply]

WikiCpa (talk) 19:43, 1 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

By Indian army I meant the then army. Also, what is your connection with the subject? I see you wrote 'we have his ORIGINAL medals'... Who's 'we' here? Dial911 (talk) 19:50, 1 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WikiCpa, Never mind. I just read your COI declaration. Dial911 (talk) 19:52, 1 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WikiCpa, I don't see any source apart from 1965 war archives that mentions your late father. There are 3 books that you cited that I can't access right now. Even if I consider that these books do have something about your father, it would not be sufficient to accept an article of that much word-count. While I assume that you tried to remain unbiased, your article still reads like an essay. A major chunk (more than 60%) of the draft lacks inline citations (read WP:INCITE) that makes it very hard to verify what content has been claimed from what source. Also, Wikipedia doesn't credit primary sources as reliable sources, read WP:GNG and WP:SOLDIER. I would suggest you try to make improvements and then re-submit it for a review. Dial911 (talk) 20:19, 1 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Noted. Will do and revert. Thank you. WikiCpa (talk) 06:44, 2 December 2018 (UTC)WikiCpa[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Institute of Innovation in Technology and Management

[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Institute of Innovation in Technology and Management requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Musbaunow, To create a stand-alone article about a living person, you need multiple reliable and secondary sources. See WP:BLP and WP:GNG. I only see this reference that talks about him in a little detail. Other than that you have only passing mentions of the subject. You can add more reliable references and then resubmit it for review.

Hello - Since you mentioned you were not able to access the books I referenced I scanned some relevant sections of the book-1965 Turning the Tide - How India won the war by Nitin A Gokhale. You can access it here on Dropbox - https://www.dropbox.com/s/oxvusfg72cfe0r5/1965TurningtheTide.pdf?dl=0. I have included the Preface just so you have some background and the relevant chapter that pertains to the subject Vijey Kumar Ghai (Chapter "The battle that changed the momentum - Morale booster in Kargil" - Pages 41-46 and Page 56-57 - referred to as Brigadier VK Ghai, Brigade commander, 121 Brigade.) This is the key to understanding the notability because it explains the significance of this battle (as evident from the Chapter title itself as "The battle that changed the momentum", and the decision of the Brigade commander to undertake the taking of Point 13620 peak etc. The author, Mr. Gokhale, is a veteran journalist of over 30 years, a defense researcher and Executive Editor of the Defence & Security Review http://www.dsalert.org/about-nitin-a-gokhale. The other book referenced is by Bajwa, K.S. The Nature of Military Leadership - The Dynamics of Soldiering. The following Page 126 brings reference to the second opinion of this decision by Ghai and I have included it to keep it to facts and bring impartiality to the article. As per Gokhales book Bajwa was the Commanding Officer of the 85 Light Regiment who took the orders from Brigadier VK Ghai that day. Here is the link - https://books.google.co.in/books?id=rwgEjeQ018sC&pg=PA89&lpg=PA89&dq=Bajwa,+K.S.+The+Nature+of+Military+Leadership+-+The+Dynamics+of+Soldiering.&source=bl&ots=MIqlIVAh2U&sig=jtReWO0d7YgR9RubVExzx0KvpfI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwipw_OZv4rfAhVeAhAIHYS9BFgQ6AEwAHoECAgQAQ#v=onepage&q=Bajwa%2C%20K.S.%20The%20Nature%20of%20Military%20Leadership%20-%20The%20Dynamics%20of%20Soldiering.&f=false.

The WW2 part of his service is more factual than notable - though I guess every soldier from WW2 is in some way notable! All 15 medals he received mentioned in the article are verifiable if you want that done. In the mean time I will trim the article and remove sections that you mention don’t have enough secondary references before resubmitting. Thanks.

Dear Dial911- Seems you did not have a chance to check all the external sources that I referenced, that you said you would check above back in Dec 2018. In the mean time I have trimmed the article as you suggested. As mentioned the books and reports referenced are from the official published records of the Indian Army - Pls see Pages 48/49 of the "Official History 1965 War Archives , 1965" (PDF) reference in my article. About the proof of WW2 - I have written to the records offices in Britain and India and they have not responded as they do not have full records at this time and as I mentioned before I have the original medals in hand that can be verified if you wish by someone of authority in the Indian Army from his regiment. Would request you to kindly go through this again in the context of historical significance of the specific battles and the outcomes. Thanks.

New Page Reviewer granted

[edit]

Hi Dial911. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encylopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember:

  • Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
  • You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
  • If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
  • Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. N.J.A. | talk 13:03, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to New Page Patrol!

[edit]
Welcome, Dial911 to the New Page Patrol team.

Congratulations on receiving the New Page Patrol user permission and on becoming a part of the patroller community. Our mission is to accurately, rather than quickly, handle the new articles which are created. As you begin to patrol it's natural to have lots of questions. Feel free to ask on my talk page or ask for thoughts in the New Page Patroller IRC channel #wikimedia-npp connect or on our Discord server (invite link). We also regularly discuss issues and topics surrounding New Page Patrolling at the NPP discussion page and I would invite you to join us there. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me. I hope you find NPP as rewarding as I do and, again, welcome to the community. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 23:28, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Review newsletter September-October 2019

[edit]

Hello Dial911,

Backlog

Instead of reaching a magic 300 as it once did last year, the backlog approaching 6,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google.

Coordinator

A proposal is taking place here to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR.

This month's refresher course

Why I Hate Speedy Deleters, a 2008 essay by long since retired Ballonman, is still as valid today. Those of us who patrol large numbers of new pages can be forgiven for making the occasional mistake while others can learn from their 'beginner' errors. Worth reading.

Deletion tags

Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon (you will need to have 'Nominated for deletion' enabled for this in your filters) may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders using Twinkle. They require your further verification.

Paid editing

Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary. WMF policy requires paid editors to connect to their adverts.

Subject-specific notability guidelines' (SNG). Alternatives to deletion
  • Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves once more with notability guidelines for organisations and companies.
  • Blank-and-Redirect is a solution anchored in policy. Please consider this alternative before PRODing or CSD. Note however, that users will often revert or usurp redirects to re-create deleted articles. Do regularly patrol the redirects in the feed.
Not English
  • A common issue: Pages not in English or poor, unattributed machine translations should not reside in main space even if they are stubs. Please ensure you are familiar with WP:NPPNE. Check in Google for the language and content, and if they do have potential, tag as required, then move to draft. Modify the text of the template as appropriate before sending it.
Tools

Regular reviewers will appreciate the most recent enhancements to the New Pages Feed and features in the Curation tool, and there are still more to come. Due to the wealth of information now displayed by ORES, reviewers are strongly encouraged to use the system now rather than Twinkle; it will also correctly populate the logs.

Stub sorting, by SD0001: A new script is available for adding/removing stub tags. See User:SD0001/StubSorter.js, It features a simple HotCat-style dynamic search field. Many of the reviewers who are using it are finding it an improvement upon other available tools.

Assessment: The script at User:Evad37/rater makes the addition of Wikiproject templates extremely easy. New page creators rarely do this. Reviewers are not obliged to make these edits but they only take a few seconds. They can use the Curation message system to let the creator know what they have done.

DannyS712 bot III is now patrolling certain categories of uncontroversial redirects. Curious? Check out its patrol log.

Go here to remove your name if you wish to opt-out of future mailings.

Hello!

[edit]

Hey James here, how are you? know I should not ask this but I've been working on draft:Plastiq recently and I was hoping you could review it. I would really appreciate your feedback. PD: its an article that has had a little polemic regarding its former editors and notability of the subject but I have discussed with other wikipedians and made pertinent changes to the tone to sound more neutral and to references to add importance. JamesRodir (talk) 16:45, 12 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I just had a quick look at the draft & some references and think it might be accepted this time. However, I would not check it thoroughly as there are editors with equal or more experience than me who are checking, editing, commenting on it. Someone shall review and hopefully accept it this time. Patience is appreciated. Thanks! Dial911 (talk) 04:56, 13 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There are now 803 holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action.
Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If each reviewer soon does only 2 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by every reviewer doing only 1 review every 2 days - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.
Want to join? Consider adding the NPP Pledge userbox.
Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some really cool awards.

Coordinator

Admin Barkeep49 has been officially invested as NPP/NPR coordinator by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers.

This month's refresher course

Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: This official Wikipedia article will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See The Hallmarks to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources.

Tools
  • It is now possible to select new pages by date range. This was requested by reviewers who want to patrol from the middle of the list.
  • It is now also possible for accredited reviewers to put any article back into the New Pages Feed for re-review. The link is under 'Tools' in the side bar.
Reviewer Feedback

Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. New Reviewer mentorship will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional peer review cohort for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch November 13.

Second set of eyes
  • Not only are New Page Reviewers the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work, especially while some routine tagging for deletion can still be carried out by non NPR holders and inexperienced users. Read about it at the Monitoring the system section in the tutorial. If you come across such editors doing good work, don't hesitate to encourage them to apply for NPR.
  • Do be sure to have our talk page on your watchlist. There are often items that require reviewers' special attention, such as to watch out for pages by known socks or disruptive editors, technical issues and new developments, and of course to provide advice for other reviewers.
Arbitration Committee

The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights.

Community Wish list

There is to be no wish list for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.

Hello! Mr.Dial911 You messaged me before I did not seen it. So 1st I want to say I'm sorry about that. And this is a reason I message to you. Please Help Me. . I want to confirm this missing place to Wikipedia. So I included this Katupitiya Walauwa. So How To Confirm This Article? Can you help me?

And Thank you.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wishmithak (talk • contribs) 07:49, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Wishmithak, I am not quite sure what you want from me. However, I can tell your article has been nominated for deletion here. As far as I can undertand, it would be deleted as it lacks any significant source. Articles on Wikipedia need significant coverage from notable and reputed sources. Feel free to look for more promonent sources and add it to your article. Dial911 (talk) 19:04, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 19:12:37, 13 November 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Hoffmacs

[edit]


I would like to get some clarity on a couple of matters surrounding the rejection of my draft page for Dr. James Inglese that was based on insufficient notability. As the co-founder of the NIH's NCGC center that became the NCATS center, he played an important role in the establishment of high throughput screening capabilities at the National Institutes of Health at a time when this methodology was almost exclusively the domain of pharmaceutical companies. I would have thought that this alone was sufficiently notable. However, I also understand that academics who are seen to be thought leaders are considered notable in the absence of the kind of media coverage needed in other disciplines. According to Pubmed, Dr. Inglese has published over 180 articles and according to Google Scholar these have been cited over 16000 times. His h-index of 63 is similar to that of many members of the National Academy of Sciences. On a related matter, I am trying to add some more evidence of his role as a thought leader in the field of high throughput screening, however I am not quite sure what to do after making edits to the draft. I do not see a way of "saving" my work without publishing it. I would like to work on it a bit before publishing (unless I am just misunderstanding what "publish" means in this case). Finally, I just want to clarify who I am and why I am working on this page. I have collaborated with Dr. Inglese and see him as a world leader in the area of small molecule screening, deserving of this recognition by Wikipedia. I am not one of these people who write pages for pay (I have gotten emails from these people and I find this practice to be somewhat repugnant). Thanks. Charlie Hoffman (Boston College Biology)

Hoffmacs (talk) 19:12, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hoffmacs, Please feel free to add some more evidence of his role. It would stay here as a draft until approved, so you can publish the changes (and save your progress) as many time as you wish. Read WP:NSCHOLAR for details. Resubmit it for review and someone will take a look. Thanks! Dial911 (talk) 18:44, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Reviewer newsletter February 2020

[edit]

Hello Dial911,

Source Guide Discussion

The first NPP source guide discussion is now underway. It covers a wide range of sources in Ghana with the goal of providing more guidance to reviewers about sources they might see when reviewing pages. Hopefully, new page reviewers will join others interested in reliable sources and those with expertise in these sources to make the discussion a success.

Redirects

New to NPP? Looking to try something a little different? Consider patrolling some redirects. Redirects are relatively easy to review, can be found easily through the New Pages Feed. You can find more information about how to patrol redirects at WP:RPATROL.

Discussions and Resources
Refresher

Geographic regions, areas and places generally do not need general notability guideline type sourcing. When evaluating whether an article meets this notability guideline please also consider whether it might actually be a form of WP:SPAM for a development project (e.g. PR for a large luxury residential development) and not actually covered by the guideline.

Articles for Creation: List of reviewers by subject notice

[edit]

Hi Dial911, you are receiving this notice because you are listed as an active Articles for Creation reviewer.

Recently a list of reviewers by area of expertise was created. This notice is being sent out to alert you to the existence of that list, and to encourage you to add your name to it. If you or other reviewers come across articles in the queue where an acceptance/decline hinges on specialist knowledge, this list should serve to facilitate contact with a fellow reviewer.

To end on a positive note, the backlog has dropped below 1,500, so thanks for all of the hard work some of you have been putting into the AfC process!

Sent to all Articles for Creation reviewers as a one-time notice. To opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page. Regards, Sam-2727 (talk)

New Page Reviewer newsletter June 2020

[edit]

Hello Dial911,

Your help can make a difference

NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference.

Google Adds New Languages to Google Translate

In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.

Discussions and Resources
  • A discussion on handling new article creation by paid editors is ongoing at the Village Pump.
  • Also at the Village Pump is a discussion about limiting participation at Articles for Deletion discussion.
  • A proposed new speedy deletion criteria for certain kinds of redirects ended with no consensus.
  • Also ending with no change was a proposal to change how we handle certain kinds of vector images.

New Page Patrol December Newsletter

[edit]

Hello Dial911,

A chart of the 2020 New Page Patrol Queue

Year in review

It has been a productive year for New Page Patrol as we've roughly cut the size of the New Page Patrol queue in half this year. We have been fortunate to have a lot of great work done by Rosguill who was the reviewer of the most pages and redirects this past year. Thanks and credit go to JTtheOG and Onel5969 who join Rosguill in repeating in the top 10 from last year. Thanks to John B123, Hughesdarren, and Mccapra who all got the NPR permission this year and joined the top 10. Also new to the top ten is DannyS712 bot III, programmed by DannyS712 which has helped to dramatically reduce the number of redirects that have needed human patrolling by patrolling certain types of redirects (e.g. for differences in accents) and by also patrolling editors who are on on the redirect whitelist.

Reviewer of the Year

John B123 has been named reviewer of the year for 2020. John has held the permission for just over 6 months and in that time has helped cut into the queue by reviewing more than 18,000 articles. His talk page shows his efforts to communicate with users, upholding NPP's goal of nurturing new users and quality over quantity.

NPP Technical Achievement Award

As a special recognition and thank you DannyS712 has been awarded the first NPP Technical Achievement Award. His work programming the bot has helped us patrol redirects tremendously - more than 60,000 redirects this past year. This has been a large contribution to New Page Patrol and definitely is worthy of recognition.

A big thank you and question

[edit]

Hi Dial911, I wanted to say a really big thanks for your kind review of my proposed draft for AKQA. It was a struggle to find someone willing to review, so I am very grateful.

On that note, I hate to ask something else of you, but I wondered if you had a few minutes to look at my suggestion for the introduction? It's a brief summary of the article to replace the current long list of locations. I've also asked for a couple of adjustments to the infobox. As I am an employee of AKQA, I won't make any edits to the article myself. Thanks, GRedgrave from AKQA (talk) 11:58, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. Let the list of services be as is for now. Mentioning every single thing that company does would make it sound like promotional. Let the essence be encyclopedic as Wikipedia is not an advertising platform, you see? Dial911 (talk) 21:13, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Jyoti Arora for deletion

What’s going on here

[edit]

I see that you accepted this dubious article via afc and I’d really want to know, why did you do that? Are you having trouble understanding our policy on notability or is there a backstory the collaborative project isn’t aware of? At this rate I don’t think I trust you to hold the Afc right. Celestina007 (talk) 18:46, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And I really think you like jumping to the conclusions. Have a look at my AfC record. I accept what I think might survive an AfD. It is easy to put blames. Dial911 (talk) 19:49, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, you aren’t answering my question, I said, why did you accept it in the first place? what notability criteria did you think they satisfied? If you are going to be doing afc & new page reviews, as my tutor @Barkeep49 said to me, “you must be able to take responsibility and defend your actions” my question was(and still is) what notability criterion did you think the “businessman” satisfied? Celestina007 (talk) 21:56, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't examined Dial's record but in general I think AfC reviewers are doing it right if sometimes their accepts get deleted. Better to cleanup that way than incentive notable people to be declined. And so I think "CEO of well known website" is a somewhat reasonable basis for an acceptance at the AfC level. Barkeep49 (talk) 22:10, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Barkeep49, My Take is, that was an assertion with shabby sources to substantiate it, or are we now accepting articles at AFC based on assertions of notability even when the sources used are questionable? Especially in areas predominantly edited by COI/UPE editors.Celestina007 (talk) 22:44, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
What I don't understand is, how quickly you pass your judgements. Are you yourself perfect? Your line of questioning sounds more like an interrogation. What do you mean by "why did you accept it in first place"? As an AfC reviewer, I felt like accepting it as per my knowledge and I did that, and I do not regret doing that. Dial911 (talk) 22:58, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Dial911, you are still evading the question, you said Per my knowledge so Im asking “per your knowledge” what notability criteria or criterion did you think they satisfied? If you can’t tell which, then I’m afraid you knowledge of notability policy isn’t satisfactory enough to hold the afc perm. Celestina007 (talk) 00:07, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You are having a rough time right now

[edit]

It should not be like this. I have seen your declaration of your honest belief that the draft you accepted was acceptable. I respect that belief. I also dare to accept borderline drafts and rely on the community's judgement. While I think you were on the wrong side of the borderline it is no reason for folk to get bent out of shape over it. I hope you will simply convert the brouhaha into what it ought to be, a simple question, understand the reason for the question, and move forward with improved skills. FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 11:52, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Timtrent, it is relieving to see someone who understood my point of view as an AfC reviewer. Thank you! Dial911 (talk) 18:19, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Every time we review a draft, accept, decline or reject, we learn a little more. I've been doing it for what seems like for ever, albeit with a gap, for a few years, and I still get it wrong. The thing to do now is to smile, and move forwards. Don't shy away form borderline decisions, but try to err a few more percentage points up the scale. I aim to accept at 60% knowing the guideline is 50. Generally that works.
If you look on my own talk page I've just been challenged for a draftification. That's fine, though I wasn't keen on the method of approach
We will never please everyone, and our peers are our sternest critics. And that's ok. FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 19:11, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And I would like to aplogise if my actions cause any pain to you. We all make mistakes and please leave this matter now. Regards Kichu🐘 Need any help? 15:49, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kashmorwiki, you should not apologize, nobody has to. I would just humbly suggest you to not get carried away and jump to conclusions. Think about it, reviewers have to make tough calls, they have to take risks in 50/50 matter. If everyone would only and only accept what they are 100% sure about that their accepts won't get into AfD then what's the point? If AfC reviewers would be afraid to touch borderline matters then who would? My acceptance went into AfD, so what? And my acceptance rate is 55%, so what? does that prove I am UPE, or unexperienced, or dubious or whatever? Anyone can put blames on anyone but that isn't the goal.

Ganga Bharani Vasudevan

[edit]

Hey, how are you? I had placed a speedy on this and taken it back realizing it was you! Apologies. There are a couple of other articles that I tagged and belonged to you and hence didn't want another one already without dropping you a chat...I was going through Ganga's article and felt it didn't qualify WP:GNG and WP:Author. Would have taken to AFD but the tone made me felt I could speedy it. Anyway, I will leave it here for you to see what you think about it. I just feel that the coverage is not independent enough to cross WP:GNG. Good day! Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 16:50, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Nomadicghumakkad Hey, all good here. Please feel free to do what you want to do. Two different news article completely about her in The Hindu are sure shot reliable, secondary and significant. Besides, there is an interview published in Deccan Chronicle that complies with Wikipedia:Interviews. Also, a few lines in The Indian Express and in The Hindu that back up the claims made in the article. The article is properly sourced too. This is not something I accepted as AfC keeping in mind 50/50, this is something that I created and I am confident it 100% passes GNG. But as I said, feel free to tag it for speedy or take it to the AfD. Dial911 (talk) 17:09, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, if you think this is all good, I am good! Thanks for your response and follow up clarification! Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 17:12, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Nomadicghumakkad, please look at the history of revisions. Compare it to the article I initially created vs other users contributions. You will find out that the tone you were talking about wasn't my contribution and if the tone is your concern, consider fixing it as per Alternatives to Deletion policy. Dial911 (talk) 17:16, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Dial911, thanks for your suggestion! Will do that. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 17:18, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, I tried cleaning up but I am further in doubt. The Indian Express thing you referred to was an IANS release. So I removed it. Deccan Chronicle, like you said is an interview and won't be a wholly secondary and independent source. Only one Hindu article [1] is significant. [2] This one is only a brief mention. [3] A lot of content about her is in double quotes and hence not completely independent. What do you think? Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 17:34, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Nomadicghumakkad, IANS itself is a news agency that creates articles that are picked up by mainstream newspapers. IANS is a reliable source, just as UNI, and PTI are in India. I never said the DC interview is wholly secondary. Please refer to this and read why this interview can be accepted as a sources here. But honestly, go with your guts and do what you think is necessary. See Ignore All Rules, Alternatives to Deletion and then take your action. Dial911 (talk) 17:41, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for sharing more resources and your encouragement. Will read more and do as recommended. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 17:44, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Munaf Kapadia moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Munaf Kapadia, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

New Page Review newsletter December 2019

[edit]

A graph showing the number of articles in the page curation feed from 12/21/18 - 12/20/19

Reviewer of the Year

This year's Reviewer of the Year is Rosguill. Having gotten the reviewer PERM in August 2018, they have been a regular reviewer of articles and redirects, been an active participant in the NPP community, and has been the driving force for the emerging NPP Source Guide that will help reviewers better evaluate sourcing and notability in many countries for which it has historically been difficult.

Special commendation again goes to Onel5969 who ends the year as one of our most prolific reviewers for the second consecutive year. Thanks also to Boleyn and JTtheOG who have been in the top 5 for the last two years as well.

Several newer editors have done a lot of work with CAPTAIN MEDUSA and DannyS712 (who has also written bots which have patrolled thousands of redirects) being new reviewers since this time last year.

Thanks to them and to everyone reading this who has participated in New Page Patrol this year.

Redirect autopatrol

A recent Request for Comment on creating a new redirect autopatrol pseduo-permission was closed early. New Page Reviewers are now able to nominate editors who have an established track record creating uncontroversial redirects. At the individual discretion of any administrator or after 24 hours and a consensus of at least 3 New Page Reviewers an editor may be added to a list of users whose redirects will be patrolled automatically by DannyS712 bot III.

Source Guide Discussion

Set to launch early in the new year is our first New Page Patrol Source Guide discussion. These discussions are designed to solicit input on sources in places and topic areas that might otherwise be harder for reviewers to evaluate. The hope is that this will allow us to improve the accuracy of our patrols for articles using these sources (and/or give us places to perform a WP:BEFORE prior to nominating for deletion). Please watch the New Page Patrol talk page for more information.

This month's refresher course

While New Page Reviewers are an experienced set of editors, we all benefit from an occasional review. This month consider refreshing yourself on Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features). Also consider how we can take the time for quality in this area. For instance, sources to verify human settlements, which are presumed notable, can often be found in seconds. This lets us avoid the (ugly) 'Needs more refs' tag.
