The November 2021 New Page Patrol Backlog Drive was a one-month-long effort to reduce the backlog of the new pages patrol feed. The co-ordinators for this drive are Buidhe, Elli, and Tol. If you have any questions, leave a message on this drive's talk page. The drive began on 1 November 2021 and ended on 30 November 2021. The ultimate goal of this backlog elimination drive is to reduce the number of articles awaiting patrol. Awards will be given out to those individuals who do the most work in helping reduce the size of the backlog. The drive is intended to promote a faster rate of decreasing the backlog whilst maintaining quality reviews. Sign up here.
Basic guidelines
- Points: Points will be calculated based on the 30-day total according to the leaderboard. It is updated by TolBot Task 8, which counts patrol, draftification, and deletion nomination, but can only detect deletion nominations when performed with the Page Curation tool. We will also accept CSD logs made by Twinkle, which will be added to the leaderboard at the end of the drive, based on the principle of good faith.
- Re-reviewing: As usual, rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. To ensure quality reviews, we are also giving credit to re-reviews, with the aim that everyone completes around 10% as many re-reviews as reviews, and around 10% of each person's reviews are re-reviewed. To find articles to re-review, go to Wikipedia:Database reports/Top new article reviewers, pick any editor, and visit the log to find articles that they have reviewed since the start of the drive. Make sure that the article is not already listed below in the re-review section to avoid duplication.
