New pages patrol newsletter

Hello Midori No Sora,

New Page Review article queue, March to September 2023

Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!

October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here.

PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon.

Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.

Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.

Thank you! It's been a few hours since all of that chaotic vandalism on Michael Ruffin and I'm feeling better now! <3 🛧Midori No Sora♪🛪 ( ☁=☁=✈) 14:10, 23 September 2023 (UTC)

The Signpost: 3 October 2023

Hello Midori no Sora. I saw that you recently closed the ITN nomination for the Siam Paragon shooting. The thing is that you !voted in that discussion, which makes you WP:INVOLVED. Therefore, you shouldn't have closed the discussion, since only uninvolved editors should close discussions. Per WP:NACINV: For the avoidance of doubt, editors should never close any discussion where they have !voted. I don't think you had any malicious intent, nor do I think your close was wrong (I probably would've closed it myself if you hadn't), but it definitely seems like a procedural error. I just thought I'd inform you, so you can keep it in mind next time and avoid making the same mistake. Sincerest well-wishes. Scientia potentia est, MonarchOfTerror 12:04, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

@MonarchOfTerror, Oh, I'm sorry about that.. It was my first time closing a nomination and I never knew about the WP:INVOLVED. (I've just read the rule and now I've got it.) Thank you for informing me and I will not do that kind of action again. Once again, I sincerely apologize for the trouble I've caused. (I also probably deserve a slap in the face with the trout..) 🛧Midori No Sora♪🛪 ( ☁=☁=✈) 12:26, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
