== Michael Wolf (Businessman) Page removal== |
|||
{{-}} |
|||
Hi I created the Michael Wolf page many years ago along with many other articles on other CEO's, celebrities, and historical figures that I was familiar with. I used information that was available on the Internet to provide information on these figures and personal knowledge to create articles. I had not updated the Michael Wolf page for a while, and it was created to provide information on a known CEO that is researched by others on a regular basis. He regularly gives speeches to the media on media trends, attends Davos, and is the CEO of Activate.com. Wikipedia is a palace where people go to research current and past know figures, which is why I believe his page should remain active. I am willing to update it with current information and I am requesting that Michael Wolf's page be restored. It has been on Wikipedia for many, many years and is a part of Wikipedia's original article feeds / historical articles that help build Wikipedia. |

Thanks for participating in the ongoing discussion.

Hello E.M.Gregory. Your account has been added to the "<code>New page reviewers</code>" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as [[meta:Help:Patrolled edit|patrolled]], tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the [[Special:NewPagesFeed|New Pages Feed]]. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you '''must''' read the new tutorial at [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol|New Pages Review]], the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various [[WP:Deletion|deletion criteria]]. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''page reviewer talk''']]. |
|||
*{{red|'''URGENT'''}}: Please consider helping get the huge backlog down to a manageable number of pages as soon as possible. |
|||
*[[WP:BITE|Be nice to new users]] - they are often not aware of doing anything wrong. |
|||
*You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not. |
|||
*Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer. |
|||
*Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice. |
|||
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator.

Thanks for words of support. I had been violently attacked for providing information available on Cage own web page! The content of the page actually is based of POV of the editors, not on factual evidence. They presumed that Cage is not lead by bunch of extreme Islamists that aim at paralysis of West effort fighting Islamic terror against the evidence. Charity organization CAGE demands withdrawal of UN troops from Africa! What kind of charity is it?

*NPR is not a binary ''keep'' / ''delete'' process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The [[WP:ATD-R|'''deletion policy''']] and its associated [[WP:BLAR|guideline]] clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See [[Template:R_from_school|a classic example]] of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the [[Template:R template index|R template index]]. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them. |

"why not explode it in the geographic center of the United States in central Kansas?" |
|||
This is a quotation from a WSJ article whose title is not referenced, but that is related to US Atomic Energy Commission hearings, to that year's underground test in Amchitka Alaska, to Patrick Moore the author the quote, or to the Don't Make A Wave Committee which Moore was representing. Barring error, certainly there is an article containing this quote on that issue; I'd be interested in any appearance of Moore there. |

By JAMES E. BYLIN Staff Reporter of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL. Wall Street Journal (1923 - Current file); New York, N.Y. [New York, N.Y]24 June 1971: 1. Proquest url: [https://search.proquest.com/news/docview/133592166/fulltextPDF/319AE25C042D4739PQ/3?accountid=10226]. The final sentence of the article is the sole mention I see of Moore, it reads: "Patrick Moore, a Canadian conservationist, points out that Japan, Canada and even the soviet Union (which is 800 miles form Amchitka) are closer to the blast site than is the contiguous U.S. and thus 'exposed to a more serious threat.' His suggestion, if the U.S. wants 'to indulge" itself in the test explode it in the geographic center of the United States in central Kansas." - note that only two phrases are direct quotes of Moore.

[[Jesus Fabian Gonzalez]] needs some expansion, and incorporation into wildfire article which currently make no mention of any arson arrests. There appears to be a strong effort to whitewash this incident as not notable and not massive cover up on the part of officials and media of what could possibly be an act of domestic terrorism, and release of a dangerous immigrant.

Hello [[User:E.M.Gregory]], I am reaching out to you and several other experienced editors with a history of editing immigration topics. I would like to ask for your help with a new article that I and others have been working on: [[Draft:Boundless Immigration]]. I am in a fully disclosed COI position on the article and do not wish to get unduly involved in editing it further or, of course, in the decision about whether it should be moved from draft status to a live article. |
|||
|style="font-size: x-large; padding: 2px 2px 0 2px; height: 1.5em;" | '''Merry Christmas and a Prosperous 2018!''' |
|||
The draft has an unusual history. As far as I can tell, the editor who declined it in December 2018 ([[User:JC7V7DC5768]]) was relatively new to editing and was subsequently blocked indefinitely for a variety of reasons. [[User:Robert McClenon]] declined the article in April 2018, and has stated in several places that he does not get involved in new article decisions once he has weighed in. The third editor to work on it, [[User:Libracarol]], improved it and was in favor of advancing the article before it was declined by the now-banned editor. But Libracarol has done no editing since February 2019 and has not responded to notes left on his/her talk page. Meanwhile, the article (still in draft form) has nearly 30 solid references, which suggests that the topic is notable. |
|||
|- |
|||
Would you be willing to take a look at it and offer an opinion? Others who declined it did not have extensive immigration article editing histories, and that seems to be an important factor here.

We have done amazing work so far in December to reduce the '''[[Special:NewPagesFeed|New Pages Feed backlog]]''' by over 3000 articles! Now is the time to capitalise on our momentum and help eliminate the backlog! |
|||
;WMF at work on NPP Improvements |
|||
The backlog drive will begin on January 1<sup>st</sup> and run until January 29<sup>th</sup>. Prize tiers and other info can be found [[WT:NPR#New Year Backlog Drive|HERE]]. |
|||
{{noping|NKohli (WMF)|label1=Niharika Kohli}}, a product manager for the growth team, [[Special:Diff/895079113|announced]] that work is underway in implementing improvements to New Page Patrol as part of the 2019 Community Wishlist and suggests all who are interested watch the [[meta:Community Tech/Page Curation and New Pages Feed improvements|project page]] on meta. Two requested improvements have already been completed. These are: |
|||
*Allow filtering by no citations in page curation |
|||
*Not having CSD and PRODs automatically marked as reviewed, reflecting current consensus among reviewers and current Twinkle functionality. |
|||
;Reliable Sources for NPP |
|||
Awards will be given in tiers in two categories: |

{{noping|Rosguill}} has been [[User:Rosguill/NPPRS|compiling a list of reliable sources]] across countries and industries that can be used by new page patrollers to help judge whether an article topic is notable or not. At this point further discussion is needed about if and how this list should be used.

== Deletion of Trevor Maynard - poet == |
||
Sorry, I’ve not been keeping up on wiki and did not realise a discussion was in place. To answer the following; Trevor Maynard edits The Poetic Bond which has published eight anthologies containing the work of 230 poets, as well as having three collections of his own. The books are published by Willowdown Books which uses the Print on Demand services of Createspace and Lulu. This is not self publishing, it is Print on Demand which is being used by traditional and self-publishing authors. The reviews of plays are accurately sourced and linked to several other notable pages. Up until four years ago, this Trevor Maynard came first google search ahead of the Lloyds one. Google search now sees this Trevor Maynard returned as the second Trevor Maynard in the list. Therefore I belief this deletion is somewhat harsh and does not truly reflect the community spirit and dissemination of useful information that Wikipedia represents. I believe the article should be u deleted. PAS [[User:Peteralansoron|Peteralansoron]] ([[User talk:Peteralansoron|talk]]) 14:20, 29 May 2019 (UTC) |

|||
*[[User:Peteralansoron]]. this is not a question of the literary caliber of Maynard's writing; and it is not about who publishes him (except insofar as publication by a major press is an indication that a writer may be notable). I doubt that an article on [[Emily Dickinson]] would have passed [[WP:AUTHOR]] during her lifetime. We need major prizes, multiple book reviews in [[WP:RS]], or [[WP:SIGCOV]] coverage to start or to keep a page about a writer.[[User:E.M.Gregory|E.M.Gregory]] ([[User talk:E.M.Gregory#top|talk]]) 14:32, 29 May 2019 (UTC) |

== International coverage == |
|||
[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|120px]] |
|||
I would like to ponder "international". This being the English Wikipedia, I do not think one necessarily needs ''international'' coverage to establish notability. Clearly there are many articles that are relevant only to the U.S., in fact, many are relevant only to any given state of the Union, and only with local sources, and yet they make the Wiki. I am fairly sure the same could be said of many articles about Australia, or New Zealand, England, or Scotland, or what have you. So if we take a ''British'' issue, I would think if one has several [[WP:RS]] as sources, and especially the BBC (which is national media in the UK, as are others), then that establishes notability for the UK, and UK notability is sufficient for a UK article, don't you think?<br><br>Now, a corollary to the above might be lands where the language is not English... so, perhaps on an article about Israel, in the English Wiki, local sources (in Hebrew, Ladino, Russian, Yiddish, English, or what have you) are ''not'' sufficient? Perhaps in this latter case we ''do'' need international sources? Anyway, just speculating. Maybe you have looked into this in the past and can cite policy? Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

|||
:*[[User:XavierItzm]] It is my understanding the international sources are not required to establish [[WP:SIGCOV]], and that not only does national coverage suffice, but regional coverage often does in a region where multiple [[WP:RS]] media give [[WP:INDEPTH]] coverage to an EVENT.[[User:E.M.Gregory|E.M.Gregory]] ([[User talk:E.M.Gregory#top|talk]]) 13:43, 14 February 2018 (UTC) |

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}, |

In {{Diff|Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Spark: A Mother's Story of Nurturing Genius|prev|826955569|your edit of 23:13, 21 February 2018}} of [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Spark: A Mother's Story of Nurturing Genius]], you closed a <code><nowiki><small></nowiki></code> tag with <code><nowiki><small/></nowiki></code>. Note that a slash at the beginning of an HTML tag means "close the corresponding tag", while a slash at the end of an HTML tag means "open and close this tag in one operation". This is known as a self-closed tag. When Wikipedia finds a self-closed tag where a closing tag is expected, it usually converts it automatically to the corresponding closing tag, but this is treated as a [[Special:LintErrors|lint error]] of type [[Special:LintErrors/self-closed-tag|self-closed tag]], and will cause problems when Wikipedia migrates from HTML4 to HTML5. I edited the page, changing <code><nowiki><small>...<small/></nowiki></code> to <code><nowiki><small>...</small></nowiki></code>.

More new features are being added to the feed, including the important red alert for previously deleted pages. This will only work if it is selected in your filters. Best is to 'select all'. Do take a moment to check out all the new features if you have not already done so. If anything is not working as it should, please let us know at [[WT:NPR|NPR]]. There is now also a live queue of [[WP:AfC|AfC]] submissions in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to review AfCs, but bear in mind that NPP is an official process and policy and is more important. |
|||
;QUALITY of REVIEWING |
|||
Articles are still not always being checked thoroughly enough. If you are not sure what to do, leave the article for a more experienced reviewer. Please [[quis custodiet ipsos custodes|be on the alert]] for any incongruities in patrolling and help your colleagues where possible; report patrollers and autopatrolled article creators who are ostensibly undeclared paid editors. |
|||
The displayed ORES alerts offer a greater 'at-a-glance' overview, but the new challenges in detecting unwanted new content and sub-standard reviewing do not necessarily make patrolling any easier, nevertheless the work may have a renewed interest factor of a different kind. A vibrant community of reviewers is always ready to help at [[WT:NPR|NPR]]. |
|||
;Backlog |
|||
The backlog is still far too high at between 7,000 and 8,000. Of around 700 user rights holders, 80% of the reviewing is being done by just TWO users. In the light of more and more subtle advertising and undeclared paid editing, New Page Reviewing is becoming more critical than ever. |
|||
;Move to draft |
|||
NPR is [[triage]], it is not a clean up clinic. This move feature is not limited to bios so you may have to slightly re-edit the text in the template before you save the move. Anything that is not fit for mainspace but which ''might'' have some promise can be draftified - particularly very poor English and machine and other low quality translations. |
|||
;Notifying users |
|||
Remember to use the message feature if you are just tagging an article for maintenance rather than deletion. Otherwise articles are likely to remain perma-tagged. Many creators are [[WP:SPA|SPA]] and have no intention of returning to Wikipedia. Use the feature too for leaving a friendly note note for the author of a first article you found well made or interesting. Many have told us they find such comments particularly welcoming and encouraging. |
|||
;PERM |
|||
Admins are now taking advantage of the new time-limited user rights feature. If you have recently been accorded NPR, do check your user rights to see if this affects you. Depending on your user account preferences, you may receive automated notifications of your rights changes. Requests for permissions are not mini-RfAs. Helpful comments are welcome ''if <u>absolutely</u> necessary'', but the bot does a lot of the work and the final decision is reserved for admins who do thorough research anyway. |
|||
;Other news |
|||
School and academic holidays will begin soon in various places around the Western world. Be on the lookout for the usual increase in hoax, attack, and other junk pages. |
|||
Our next newsletter might be announcing details of a possible election for co-ordinators of NPR. If you think you have what it takes to micro manage NPR, take a look at [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/Coordination#New_Page_Review_Coordinators|New Page Review Coordinators]] - it's a job that requires a lot of time and dedication. |

== Unprincipled editing == |
||
Would you mind explaining why you removed a description of "conservative" (sourced to multiple RS) from the lede of [[Andy Ngo]] while a day earlier inserting a description sourced to one RS (that flies in the face of several other RS) to the lede of [[Bari Weiss]]? To me, this seems utterly shameless and unprincipled, and is an example of the kind of editing behavior that makes editing in American politics dysfunctional.

Hi E.M.Gregory, it appears that you haven't completed the nomination correctly, as displayed in the AfD log. Could you please check it and rectify.

:*I object to reductive ledes, of the kind you are supporting in re: Ngo, that tag people with complex political views with simplistic, one word labels. The Bari Weis edit [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bari_Weiss&diff=904353965&oldid=904353413] reflected the complexity of Weiss's political views. |

Hello, BLP-PROD is used when there is a BLP article without any sources. It is not a statement on the notability of the subject or anything else, it is simply WP policy regarding unsourced BLP's.

|||
Per [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Thomas_Salme&diff=908889317&oldid=908878087], I would suggest that it isn't remotely appropriate to tag an IP who reports an issue with blatant promotional editing in an article at WP:ANI as a 'SPA', just because they then agree with said article being nominated for deletion. Even more so when it is clearly done because said IP disagreed with your questionable grounds for opposing deletion. I suggest you self-revert, and leave it to the closer of the AFD discussion to decide who is entitled to comment.

::Um, your 1st edit and half of your edits to date were about [[Thomas Salme]], the AfD about the Salme page, and at a noticeboard discussion of that AfD.

:::Um, no. A 'single-purpose account' belongs to someone who edits largely on a single subject. Not to someone who is clearly familiar with Wikipedia policy, and hadn't edited the article (or any article on a similar subject) before, but has been editing Wikipedia for years (longer than you have, it appears), with a dynamic IP. Hardly anyone had significantly edited the article before I saw it, other then the string of genuine single-purpose registered accounts responsible from the promotional fluff I reported at WP:ANI. I am clearly no more of a 'SPA' than you are, and I consider your attempts to suggest otherwise to be entirely contrary to the stated purposes of Wikipedia. And clearly detrimental to its proper functioning, if this is the sort of response an unregistered user gets for reporting a clearly-problematic article at WP:ANI. Again, I ask you to remove the inappropriate tagging of someone who disagrees with you in an AFD discussion.

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages! {{Notabilityguide}} |

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}, |
|||
;Backlog |
|||
'''ACTRIAL''': |
|||
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 |
|||
'''Deletion tags''' |
|||
A proposal is taking place [[Wikipedia_talk:New_pages_patrol/Reviewers#Coordinator|'''here''']] to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR. |
|||
*Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders. They require your further verification. |
|||
;This month's refresher course |
|||
'''Backlog drive''': |
|||
''[[Wikipedia:Why I Hate Speedy Deleters|Why I Hate Speedy Deleters]]'', a 2008 essay by long since retired {{U|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. |
|||
*A backlog drive will take place from 10 through 20 June. Check out our talk page at [[WT:NPR]] for more details. '''NOTE''': It is extremely important that we focus on quality reviewing. Despite our goal of reducing the backlog as much as possible, please do not rush while reviewing. |
|||
;Deletion tags |
|||
'''Editathons''' |
|||
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. |
|||
*There will be a large increase in the number of editathons in June. Please be gentle with new pages that obviously come from good faith participants, especially articles from developing economies and ones about female subjects. Consider using the '[[User:Evad37/MoveToDraft|move to draft]]' tool rather than bluntly tagging articles that may have potential but which cannot yet reside in mainspace. |
|||
;Paid editing |
|||
Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator <u>if appropriate</u>, 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 [[WP:ORG|organisations and companies]]. |
|||
*The box at the right contains each of the subject-specific notability guidelines, please review any that are relevant [[WP:BEFORE|BEFORE]] nominating an article for deletion. |
|||
*''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. |
|||
*Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves with the new version of the notability guidelines for [[WP:ORG|organisations and companies]]. |
|||
;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, tag as required, then move to draft |

'''News''' |
|||
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. |
|||
*Development is underway by the WMF on upgrades to the New Pages Feed, in particular ORES features that will help to identify COPYVIOs, and more granular options for selecting articles to review. |
|||
*The next issue of [[Wikipedia:The Signpost|''The Signpost'']] has been published. The newspaper is one of the best ways to stay up to date with news and new developments. between our newsletters. |

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. |

The fact that they are signed does not mean they are not based on press releases. Many of the journalists working in modern newspapers are up against targets, and will place copy wholesale unedited that has been provided by PR agencies (see http://badpr.co.uk for some examples and discussion of the red flags). The byline means nothing unless you find that the writer is a serious news or feature journalist with an independent reputation. That is the sorry state of newspapers today. Ironically it's one area where Indian sources are somewhat better than Western (the reverse is true for scientific journals). <b>[[User Talk:JzG|Guy]]</b> <small>([[User:JzG/help|Help!]])</small> 12:00, 12 June 2018 (UTC) |

Overall the June backlog drive was a success, reducing the last 3,000 or so to below 500. However, as expected, 90% of the patrolling was done by less than 10% of reviewers. <br>Since the drive closed, the backlog has begun to rise sharply again and is back up to nearly '''1,400''' already.

*New features are shortly going to be added to the [[Special:NewPagesFeed]] which include a list of drafts for review, OTRS flags for COPYVIO, and more granular filter preferences. More details can be found at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/AfC Process Improvement May 2018#Execution plan and status|this page]]. |
|||
*Probationary permissions: Now that PERM has been configured to allow expiry dates to all minor user rights, new NPR flag holders may sometimes be limited in the first instance to 6 months during which their work will be assessed for both quality and quantity of their reviews. This will allow admins to accord the right in borderline cases rather than make a flat out rejection. |
|||
*Current reviewers who have had the flag for longer than 6 months but have not used the permissions since they were granted will have the flag removed, but may still request to have it granted again in the future, subject to the same probationary period, if they wish to become an active reviewer. |

Michael Wolf (Businessman) Page removal
Hi I created the Michael Wolf page many years ago along with many other articles on other CEO's, celebrities, and historical figures that I was familiar with. I used information that was available on the Internet to provide information on these figures and personal knowledge to create articles. I had not updated the Michael Wolf page for a while, and it was created to provide information on a known CEO that is researched by others on a regular basis. He regularly gives speeches to the media on media trends, attends Davos, and is the CEO of Activate.com. Wikipedia is a palace where people go to research current and past know figures, which is why I believe his page should remain active. I am willing to update it with current information and I am requesting that Michael Wolf's page be restored. It has been on Wikipedia for many, many years and is a part of Wikipedia's original article feeds / historical articles that help build Wikipedia.
Please let me know if you can assist with restoring the page and I will update it. Thank you. user:endicium m@endicium.com

Thanks for participating in the ongoing discussion. I found a couple more profiles in The Oregonian (the largest newspaper in Oregon and the second largest in the Pacific Northwest by circulation) and The Portland Tribune, but I'm currently scrambling to save a few other articles nominated by the same editor. I won't be surprised if the article is deleted, so I may just have to work in the draft space after deletion since I don't have time to rescue and expand immediately. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:54, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
- Also, unrelated, if an AfD nominator changes their own vote to redirect, does that mean the AfD should be closed? Just curious. ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:46, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
- I'm not sure, User:Another Believer. I do know that if a Nom changes to "keep", he can only close the page if there are no "delete" votes. So I suspect that Nom could only close the page if thre are no outstanding keep or delete votes.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:03, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
NPR Newsletter No.17
Hello E.M.Gregory,
- News
- The WMF has announced that Google Translate is now available for translating articles through the content translation tool. This may result in an increase in machine translated articles in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to use the {{rough translation}} tag and gently remind (or inform) editors that translations from other language Wikipedia pages still require attribution per WP:TFOLWP.
- Discussions of interest
- Two elements of CSD G6 have been split into their own criteria: R4 for redirects in the "File:" namespace with the same name as a file or redirect at Wikimedia Commons (Discussion), and G14 for disambiguation pages which disambiguate zero pages, or have "(disambiguation)" in the title but disambiguate a single page (Discussion).
- {{db-blankdraft}} was merged into G13 (Discussion)
- A discussion recently closed with no consensus on whether to create a subject-specific notability guideline for theatrical plays.
- There is an ongoing discussion on a proposal to create subject-specific notability guidelines for chemicals and organism taxa.
- Reminders
- NPR is not a binary keep / delete process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The deletion policy and its associated guideline clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See a classic example of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the R template index. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them.
- NPP Tools Report
- Superlinks – allows you to check an article's history, logs, talk page, NPP flowchart (on unpatrolled pages) and more without navigating away from the article itself.
- copyvio-check – automatically checks the copyvio percentage of new pages in the background and displays this info with a link to the report in the 'info' panel of the Page curation toolbar.
- The NPP flowchart now has clickable hyperlinks.

POV-pushing and slander accusations
Since you must know that these accusations are serious charges, I need not to explain. This is also construable as skirting on your previous topic ban where you were sanctioned for POV pushing on immigration topics, so you must be mindful. If you are confident in your accusation and evidence, you must report me on the Incidents noticeboard. Otherwise, please cease these accusations. Thank you. Tsumikiria⧸ 🌹🌉 21:04, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
- You should certainly stop accusing fellow editors of being "NAZIS".E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:11, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
- It was nowhere an accusation of being Nazis, and repeatedly construing my citations to essays as advisements as such is disruptive and uncivil. If you want to continue this thread, WP:ANI is definitely a better venue. I will not comment further here. Tsumikiria⧸ 🌹🌉 21:31, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
- Citing past diffs does not imply a challenge to consummated closures. Consider these edits by Tsumikiria:
- "can you provide diffs on EMG citing hate groups as sources? This is absolutely unacceptable. Under the advisements from WP:NONAZIS, this should warrant a block, at least" [1],
- "A long term or indef TBAN from BLP and American Politics may be in order, as illegal immigration isn't the only part of AP where they attempted POV editing. At this point it might be appropriate to cite WP:NORACISTS as well" [2]
Observe NORACISTS redirects to NONAZIS.
Cheers to all, XavierItzm (talk) 00:50, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

Access to source?
Hello, I'd like to ask you for a favor. You seem to have access to some subscriptions. I was wondering if you might be able to access The wall street journal 24 June 1971 "why not explode it in the geographic center of the United States in central Kansas?" This is a quotation from a WSJ article whose title is not referenced, but that is related to US Atomic Energy Commission hearings, to that year's underground test in Amchitka Alaska, to Patrick Moore the author the quote, or to the Don't Make A Wave Committee which Moore was representing. Barring error, certainly there is an article containing this quote on that issue; I'd be interested in any appearance of Moore there. If you don't have this sort of access, never mind, and thank you anyway for all do you here at Wikipedia. It's evidently a thankless job. XavierItzm (talk) 00:38, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
- User:XavierItzm Blasting the Blast: AEC's Plan to Stage Atom Test in Alaska Brings Sharp Dissent Critics Fear Quakes, Waves, Harm to U.S.-Soviet Ties; No Danger Seen by Agency But Is This Test Necessary? Blasting the Blast: AEC's Plan for Test Brings Sharp Dissent
By JAMES E. BYLIN Staff Reporter of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL. Wall Street Journal (1923 - Current file); New York, N.Y. [New York, N.Y]24 June 1971: 1. Proquest url: [3]. The final sentence of the article is the sole mention I see of Moore, it reads: "Patrick Moore, a Canadian conservationist, points out that Japan, Canada and even the soviet Union (which is 800 miles form Amchitka) are closer to the blast site than is the contiguous U.S. and thus 'exposed to a more serious threat.' His suggestion, if the U.S. wants 'to indulge" itself in the test explode it in the geographic center of the United States in central Kansas." - note that only two phrases are direct quotes of Moore.

Article about Boundless Immigration
Hello User:E.M.Gregory, I am reaching out to you and several other experienced editors with a history of editing immigration topics. I would like to ask for your help with a new article that I and others have been working on: Draft:Boundless Immigration. I am in a fully disclosed COI position on the article and do not wish to get unduly involved in editing it further or, of course, in the decision about whether it should be moved from draft status to a live article. The draft has an unusual history. As far as I can tell, the editor who declined it in December 2018 (User:JC7V7DC5768) was relatively new to editing and was subsequently blocked indefinitely for a variety of reasons. User:Robert McClenon declined the article in April 2018, and has stated in several places that he does not get involved in new article decisions once he has weighed in. The third editor to work on it, User:Libracarol, improved it and was in favor of advancing the article before it was declined by the now-banned editor. But Libracarol has done no editing since February 2019 and has not responded to notes left on his/her talk page. Meanwhile, the article (still in draft form) has nearly 30 solid references, which suggests that the topic is notable. Would you be willing to take a look at it and offer an opinion? Others who declined it did not have extensive immigration article editing histories, and that seems to be an important factor here. Many thanks in advance for considering my request! Messier6 (talk) 17:57, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

Niharika Kohli, a product manager for the growth team, announced that work is underway in implementing improvements to New Page Patrol as part of the 2019 Community Wishlist and suggests all who are interested watch the project page on meta. Two requested improvements have already been completed. These are:
- Allow filtering by no citations in page curation
- Not having CSD and PRODs automatically marked as reviewed, reflecting current consensus among reviewers and current Twinkle functionality.
- Reliable Sources for NPP
Rosguill has been compiling a list of reliable sources across countries and industries that can be used by new page patrollers to help judge whether an article topic is notable or not. At this point further discussion is needed about if and how this list should be used. Please consider joining the discussion about how this potentially valuable resource should be developed and used.
- Backlog drive coming soon
Look for information on the an upcoming backlog drive in our next newsletter. If you'd like to help plan this drive, join in the discussion on the New Page Patrol talk page.
- News
- Following a request for comment, the subject-specific notability guideline for pornographic actors and models (WP:PORNBIO) was removed; in its place, editors should consult WP:ENT and WP:GNG.
- Discussions of interest
- A request for bot approval for a bot to patrol two kinds of redirects
- There has been a lot discussion about Notability of Academics
- What, if anything, would a SNG for Softball look like

Deletion of Trevor Maynard - poet
Sorry, I’ve not been keeping up on wiki and did not realise a discussion was in place. To answer the following; Trevor Maynard edits The Poetic Bond which has published eight anthologies containing the work of 230 poets, as well as having three collections of his own. The books are published by Willowdown Books which uses the Print on Demand services of Createspace and Lulu. This is not self publishing, it is Print on Demand which is being used by traditional and self-publishing authors. The reviews of plays are accurately sourced and linked to several other notable pages. Up until four years ago, this Trevor Maynard came first google search ahead of the Lloyds one. Google search now sees this Trevor Maynard returned as the second Trevor Maynard in the list. Therefore I belief this deletion is somewhat harsh and does not truly reflect the community spirit and dissemination of useful information that Wikipedia represents. I believe the article should be u deleted. PAS Peteralansoron (talk) 14:20, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
- see: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Trevor Maynard.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:32, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
- User:Peteralansoron. this is not a question of the literary caliber of Maynard's writing; and it is not about who publishes him (except insofar as publication by a major press is an indication that a writer may be notable). I doubt that an article on Emily Dickinson would have passed WP:AUTHOR during her lifetime. We need major prizes, multiple book reviews in WP:RS, or WP:SIGCOV coverage to start or to keep a page about a writer.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:32, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Shohret Hoshur
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 Shohret Hoshur 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 person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event 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.

Elephants
If I can find enough authors other than Bernstein (writing in The Nation) and Lasar (detailed, but involved enough that I'd like someone more neutral in addition) then I am considering writing about the elephant.
If you like churches, then Penrhiw Priory (AfD discussion) might be up your street. The subject is really the building, not the hotel.

Untangling this mares nest of would be useful, because the page makes nothing clear: Did Pacifica decide to accept corporate sponsorships or not?

New Page Review newsletter July-August 2019
Hello E.M.Gregory,
- WMF at work on NPP Improvements
More new features are being added to the feed, including the important red alert for previously deleted pages. This will only work if it is selected in your filters. Best is to 'select all'. Do take a moment to check out all the new features if you have not already done so. If anything is not working as it should, please let us know at NPR. There is now also a live queue of AfC submissions in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to review AfCs, but bear in mind that NPP is an official process and policy and is more important.
- QUALITY of REVIEWING
Articles are still not always being checked thoroughly enough. If you are not sure what to do, leave the article for a more experienced reviewer. Please be on the alert for any incongruities in patrolling and help your colleagues where possible; report patrollers and autopatrolled article creators who are ostensibly undeclared paid editors. The displayed ORES alerts offer a greater 'at-a-glance' overview, but the new challenges in detecting unwanted new content and sub-standard reviewing do not necessarily make patrolling any easier, nevertheless the work may have a renewed interest factor of a different kind. A vibrant community of reviewers is always ready to help at NPR.
- Backlog
The backlog is still far too high at between 7,000 and 8,000. Of around 700 user rights holders, 80% of the reviewing is being done by just TWO users. In the light of more and more subtle advertising and undeclared paid editing, New Page Reviewing is becoming more critical than ever.
- Move to draft
NPR is triage, it is not a clean up clinic. This move feature is not limited to bios so you may have to slightly re-edit the text in the template before you save the move. Anything that is not fit for mainspace but which might have some promise can be draftified - particularly very poor English and machine and other low quality translations.
- Notifying users
Remember to use the message feature if you are just tagging an article for maintenance rather than deletion. Otherwise articles are likely to remain perma-tagged. Many creators are SPA and have no intention of returning to Wikipedia. Use the feature too for leaving a friendly note note for the author of a first article you found well made or interesting. Many have told us they find such comments particularly welcoming and encouraging.
- PERM
Admins are now taking advantage of the new time-limited user rights feature. If you have recently been accorded NPR, do check your user rights to see if this affects you. Depending on your user account preferences, you may receive automated notifications of your rights changes. Requests for permissions are not mini-RfAs. Helpful comments are welcome if absolutely necessary, but the bot does a lot of the work and the final decision is reserved for admins who do thorough research anyway.
- Other news
School and academic holidays will begin soon in various places around the Western world. Be on the lookout for the usual increase in hoax, attack, and other junk pages.
Our next newsletter might be announcing details of a possible election for co-ordinators of NPR. If you think you have what it takes to micro manage NPR, take a look at New Page Review Coordinators - it's a job that requires a lot of time and dedication.

Andy Ngo
I've been writing the article Andy Ngo for some time now. I noticed you've been writing it so I published it, feel free to edit. wumbolo ^^^ 17:50, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
Unprincipled editing
Would you mind explaining why you removed a description of "conservative" (sourced to multiple RS) from the lede of Andy Ngo while a day earlier inserting a description sourced to one RS (that flies in the face of several other RS) to the lede of Bari Weiss? To me, this seems utterly shameless and unprincipled, and is an example of the kind of editing behavior that makes editing in American politics dysfunctional. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 12:29, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- I object to reductive ledes, of the kind you are supporting in re: Ngo, that tag people with complex political views with simplistic, one word labels. The Bari Weis edit [6] reflected the complexity of Weiss's political views.

Second topic ban violation
You have violated your topic ban for the second time[7]. You are "indefinitely topic banned from pages and content related to illegal immigration, immigration policy, and the relationship between crime and immigration",[8] yet you just now edited the page for "an anti-illegal immigration activist group"[9]. You should self-revert. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 23:44, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
- apologies for forgetting myself and adding a RS to the page; I have self-reverted. I was simply going down a list of pages at AfD, running a WP:BEFORE and beginning to add sources that I found. In-depth coverage of this group comes up in a proper search. My suggesiton was going to be MERGE to FAIR, on the grounds that while this outfit existed, and was covered in reliable media in depthe, this outfit didn't get much coverage and should therefore be merged or parent org. E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:50, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
- Why are you commenting on the AfD for that group even after you were made aware about your topic ban? You should self-revert that, as well. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 23:53, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
- I offered helpful information [10] - not an iVote - on the assumption that we are here to build an encyclopedia. I AGF and accept your assertion that this sort of comment is forbidden and revert. E.M.Gregory (talk) 00:05, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments on the page about me. Not sure why some of the other reviews like those from PoliceOne and Force Science didn't come up when you searched [1] but I appreciate it. I hope the page doesn't get deleted but if so I think you got there honestly. Please have a look at my comments and that of Peter Moskos from this morning when you consider the page. I saw your page of fixed profiles so if you can help fix the page rather than deleting it I'd be happy.

'Tag SPA'
Per [11], I would suggest that it isn't remotely appropriate to tag an IP who reports an issue with blatant promotional editing in an article at WP:ANI as a 'SPA', just because they then agree with said article being nominated for deletion. Even more so when it is clearly done because said IP disagreed with your questionable grounds for opposing deletion. I suggest you self-revert, and leave it to the closer of the AFD discussion to decide who is entitled to comment. 86.143.229.185 (talk) 21:41, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Um, your 1st edit and half of your edits to date were about Thomas Salme, the AfD about the Salme page, and at a noticeboard discussion of that AfD. This is what an SPA is, an editor who has edited primarily on a single topic.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:44, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Um, no. A 'single-purpose account' belongs to someone who edits largely on a single subject. Not to someone who is clearly familiar with Wikipedia policy, and hadn't edited the article (or any article on a similar subject) before, but has been editing Wikipedia for years (longer than you have, it appears), with a dynamic IP. Hardly anyone had significantly edited the article before I saw it, other then the string of genuine single-purpose registered accounts responsible from the promotional fluff I reported at WP:ANI. I am clearly no more of a 'SPA' than you are, and I consider your attempts to suggest otherwise to be entirely contrary to the stated purposes of Wikipedia. And clearly detrimental to its proper functioning, if this is the sort of response an unregistered user gets for reporting a clearly-problematic article at WP:ANI. Again, I ask you to remove the inappropriate tagging of someone who disagrees with you in an AFD discussion. 86.143.229.185 (talk) 21:55, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- How, precisely, are other editors supposed to tell that you are someone who "has been editing Wikipedia for years (longer than you have, it appears), with a dynamic IP." as opposed to the SPA sort of IP?E.M.Gregory (talk) 22:13, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Edit: scratch my last comment, per your response on the AFD page. Thanks for that. 86.143.229.185 (talk) 00:54, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter September-October 2019
Hello E.M.Gregory,
- 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.
