PESUMA KE-34

hi, i has received your email regarding to speedy deletion PESUMA KE-34 account. This page should not be speedily deleted because... (your reason here) --110.159.233.190 (talk) 09:25, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Dear admin page, We created this WIKIPEDIA for our sport game that fully host by our department. All the contents are originally created by us and it did not included any out sources, neither promotes other brand or publicises someone or something. So, hopefully, this page will not be delete. All your cooperation and consideration, regarding this matter is preceded by a heartfelt thank you. 110.159.233.190 (talk) 09:25, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello, hopefully you have a good day. The user page for PESUMA-34 is not adhering to the Wikipedia rule, as the user page can't be used to promote anything, including your event. If the event is notable, it can be included, but from the current state of the article the event didn't have enough notability for inclusion to Wikipedia. Best of luck to your event though! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 06:34, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

New Pages Patrol newsletter January 2023

Hello SunDawn/Archives/2023,

New Page Review queue December 2022
Backlog

The October drive reduced the backlog from 9,700 to an amazing 0! Congratulations to WaddlesJP13 who led with 2084 points. See this page for further details. The queue is steadily rising again and is approaching 2,000. It would be great if <2,000 were the “new normal”. Please continue to help out even if it's only for a few or even one patrol a day.

2022 Awards

Onel5969 won the 2022 cup for 28,302 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 80/day. There was one Gold Award (5000+ reviews), 11 Silver (2000+), 28 Iron (360+) and 39 more for the 100+ barnstar. Rosguill led again for the 4th year by clearing 49,294 redirects. For the full details see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone!

Minimum deletion time: The previous WP:NPP guideline was to wait 15 minutes before tagging for deletion (including draftification and WP:BLAR). Due to complaints, a consensus decided to raise the time to 1 hour. To illustrate this, very new pages in the feed are now highlighted in red. (As always, this is not applicable to attack pages, copyvios, vandalism, etc.)

New draftify script: In response to feedback from AFC, the The Move to Draft script now provides a choice of set messages that also link the creator to a new, friendly explanation page. The script also warns reviewers if the creator is probably still developing the article. The former script is no longer maintained. Please edit your edit your common.js or vector.js file from User:Evad37/MoveToDraft.js to User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft.js

Redirects: Some of our redirect reviewers have reduced their activity and the backlog is up to 9,000+ (two months deep). If you are interested in this distinctly different task and need any help, see this guide, this checklist, and spend some time at WP:RFD.

Discussions with the WMF The PageTriage open letter signed by 444 users is bearing fruit. The Growth Team has assigned some software engineers to work on PageTriage, the software that powers the NewPagesFeed and the Page Curation toolbar. WMF has submitted dozens of patches in the last few weeks to modernize PageTriage's code, which will make it easier to write patches in the future. This work is helpful but is not very visible to the end user. For patches visible to the end user, volunteers such as Novem Linguae and MPGuy2824 have been writing patches for bug reports and feature requests. The Growth Team also had a video conference with the NPP coordinators to discuss revamping the landing pages that new users see.

Reminders
  • Newsletter feedback - please take this short poll about the newsletter.
  • There is live chat with patrollers on the New Page Patrol Discord.
  • Please add the project discussion page to your watchlist.
  • If you no longer wish to be a reviewer, please ask any admin to remove you from the group. If you want the tools back again, just ask at PERM.
  • To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

The links point to specific information. We are the creators of simulators. Since we are develop military simulators, I thought it would be helpful to link keywords to relevant information. Readers who click the link page may get more detailed information if they browse the link page. DhirajT2504 (talk) 12:24, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello! Hopefully you have a great day today. Your edits violate Wikipedia guidelines, as the external link you use is not adhering to WP:ELYES. Linking keywords to relevant information, especially to sites that may have conflict of interest to the editor, is something that should not be done in Wikipedia. If you have any questions, please do ask! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 13:06, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Happy New Year, SunDawn!

Happy New Year!

SunDawn,
Have a prosperous, productive and enjoyable New Year, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Thank you, may you have great 2023 as well! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 09:01, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

For the American Battery Technology Company article I included links to the official press release and a Youtube video of the acutal interview with US President Joe Biden. How are those not credible links?    Send New Year cheer by adding {{subst:Happy New Year fireworks}} to user talk pages.

Your signature

Hi! I noticed that your signature is damaged at User talk:Bhushanpawar123 and at every other page you've signed today. I suggest you take out the call to the {{Large}} template, at least while the template is tagged with a TFD notice. -- John of Reading (talk) 13:43, 9 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello John! Thank you for your advice. I have fixed the signature for now. After I had done some NPP and anti-vandalism work I checked out one of the talk page and I saw the problem - and I forgot that my signature is the one creating the call to the Larger template, not the NPP message or the vandalism warning message. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 16:37, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
I've corrected all the affected pages, I think. -- John of Reading (talk) 16:43, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
That is simply too nice! Thank you very much! How do you that so fast? ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 16:45, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
The TFD notice added the affected talk pages to Category:Templates for merging. I loaded the category into AutoWikiBrowser and set up a find-and-replace rule to delete the unwanted text. AWB then let me review and save each edit with one mouse click. -- John of Reading (talk) 16:51, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
I need to learn to use AWB. I have heard things about it but never tried it. Thank you for your kind assistance! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 16:53, 9 January 2023 (UTC)

Qosmosys

Hello, I noticed you recently flagged Qosmosys for deletion citing internal references (now removed) and lack of in depth information. I agree the page should be deleted as there is not enough information available publicly about the company. However, there is a surprising amount of information available regarding their spacecraft - the Zeus-1. For this reason, I will creating a page for the Zeus-1.Lemonny3663 (talk) 01:44, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Referring to the question you asked in the recent undoing of the edit I made to HeadOn

Well you see, if someone wants to end it all by a gun to the head (DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT SUICIDE CALL THE HELPLINE), you would probably aim at your forehead, where the brain lies. And the commercial repeatedly tells you to “apply directly to the forehead!”, which from some online debates say is so grating it could make you want to end your life…
…Ok I am going to admit I made a lot of that up on the fly and that it really wasn’t a constructive edit so by all means do not revert it. I did have a fun time writing this message though so there’s that. 2600:100E:B07E:38FF:484C:97DB:8CCB:42F7 (talk) 05:35, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

WMFX

So I wanted to message about the recent change I made to WMFX. The main reason for editing the article is because WPCO’s license was cancelled by the FCC. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.34.132.39 (talk) 15:05, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello! The problem with your edits is that you added in external link to the article (alphamedia.com) where the Fox1023.com is still available. On the other hand, it turns out that alphamedia.com is not an inappropriate link so I will remove the warning on your talk page. Can you explain more why you need to change the link? And can you explain why WPCO license being revoked have to affect WMFX? Thank you and have a good day! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 15:11, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

So the website and webcast are basically the same, so I put the actual webcast link in the webcast while decapitalizing Fox for the website link. On the other hand, WMFX is a sister station of WPCO. But seeing as it is not licensed anymore, it no longer needs to be listed as a sister station. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.34.132.39 (talk) 15:29, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

Discord invite

Hey there. Congrats on being on the backlog drive leaderboard already. Off to a great start! If you want to hang out with other NPPs, consider joining us on the NPP Discord. Discord is live chat software that can be really fun. If not no worries. Thanks and see you around :) –Novem Linguae (talk) 02:55, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

Is it voice based or is it text based? Thanks! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 03:02, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
Mostly text based. It has voice capability too but it's rarely used. (Apologies for necroing this. Saw your reply just now.) –Novem Linguae (talk) 18:14, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
No problem! I have joined the Discord. Thanks for the invite. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 11:37, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

Training Airways

Hey I am the person that put up the article you requested for deletion (Training Airways 123). I actually thought it was still a sandbox but apparently I am dumb lol. Do you know if I can move it back to a sandbox category so only I can see it? Chicagoorange (talk) 23:48, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

Do you have plan to expand that or is it a totally hoax story? Thanks. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 07:36, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
No it was a sandbox thing, like I was trying to experiment editing an article, but I moved the page to another category, not knowing it was actually being turned into a real page. Chicagoorange (talk) 02:28, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

Edits to Eystein Halfdansson

Hi there! My edits to the article were reverted twice by stating vandalism as the reason for reverting. As I detailed on the talk page of the article the edit is in fact a correction of a mistranslation of the nickname of Eystein Halfdansson. Even though it looks like a silly edit it actually is a serious one. Any chance of me editing this article without it getting reverted again? Rwtw01 (talk) 16:04, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

Deprodding of Wayne Farnham

I have removed the {{proposed deletion/dated}} tag from Wayne Farnham, which you proposed for deletion. Candidate has since been elected meaning he now meets WP:NPOL.. If you still think this article should be deleted, please do not add {{proposed deletion}} back to the page. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks! - GA Melbourne (talk) 22:19, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

I didn't see any need for PROD anymore as he had been elected. Thank you! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 03:49, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
