Administrators' newsletter – May 2022
News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2022).
|
|
- Following an RfC, a change has been made to the administrators inactivity policy. Under the new policy, if an administrator has not made at least 100 edits over a period of 5 years they may be desysopped for inactivity.
- Following a discussion on the bureaucrat's noticeboard, a change has been made to the bureaucrats inactivity policy.
- The ability to undelete the associated talk page when undeleting a page has been added. This was the 11th wish of the 2021 Community Wishlist Survey.
- A public status system for WMF wikis has been created. It is located at https://www.wikimediastatus.net/ and is hosted separately to WMF wikis so in the case of an outage it will remain viewable.
- Remedy 2 of the St Christopher case has been rescinded following a motion. The remedy previously authorised administrators to place a ban on single-purpose accounts who were disruptively editing on the article St Christopher Iba Mar Diop College of Medicine or related pages from those pages.

Question from Hamdydego (14:23, 18 May 2022)
i want to make a Wikipedia page about one of the best artists named Ahmed hamdy el degwy --Hamdydego (talk) 14:23, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Hamdydego welcome to Wikipedia! Please reconsider making the page, your friend is likely not notable and this constitutes a conflict of interest which needs to be disclosed if you do plan on starting the article. Please read the article linked on conflicts of interests and WP:1st. Justiyaya 13:53, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

New Page Patrol newsletter May 2022
Hello FormalDude,
At the time of the last newsletter (No.26, September 2021), the backlog was 'only' just over 6,000 articles. In the past six months, the backlog has reached nearly 16,000, a staggering level not seen in several years. A very small number of users had been doing the vast majority of the reviews. Due to "burn-out", we have recently lost most of this effort. Furthermore, several reviewers have been stripped of the user right for abuse of privilege and the articles they patrolled were put back in the queue.
Several discussions on the state of the process have taken place on the talk page, but there has been no action to make any changes. The project also lacks coordination since the "position" is vacant.
In the last 30 days, only 100 reviewers have made more than 8 patrols and only 50 have averaged one review a day. There are currently 810 New Page Reviewers, but about a third have not had any activity in the past month. All 857 administrators have this permission, but only about a dozen significantly contribute to NPP.
This means we have an active pool of about 450 to address the backlog. We cannot rely on a few to do most of the work as that inevitably leads to burnout. A fairly experienced reviewer can usually do a review in a few minutes. If every active reviewer would patrol just one article per day, the backlog would very quickly disappear.
If you have noticed a user with a good understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, do suggest they help the effort by placing {{subst:NPR invite}}
on their talk page.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process and its software.
To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Question from BrownShadow89 on Mayfield, Kentucky (03:52, 24 May 2022)
Information on the December 2021 quad state tornado needs to be added. The picture of our court house is no longer correct. We made international news and I’d appreciate for that to be included. if you simply google dec 10, 2021 you’ll see what happened. --BrownShadow89 (talk) 03:52, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
- @BrownShadow89: There is already a section about the tornado: Mayfield, Kentucky#December 2021 tornado outbreak. ––FormalDude talk 01:54, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

Need a public figure profile for myself
How do I do it? 196.34.35.58 (talk) 08:37, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

Info box concern
Hello,
It doesn’t matter if the subject of an article is a public figure or not. Regardless of status, an info-box can be added within an article. 21pegedi89 (talk) 04:48, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
Interaction Design and Architecture(s)
Hi FormalDude,
I do not understand why the page has been moved to the draft space. It is perfectly consistent with all other pages devoted to open-source journals already published on Wikipedia. Please have a look at those listed on this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open-access_journals (you can click on any one and have a look at how they are composed; The main sections used by other journals have been integrated and used also for Interaction Design and Architecture(s) and only essential information provided. Could you be so kind to suggest the changes that in your opinion should be done before submitting the draft for review? Thanks in advance.

- Hi @Edechiconza, you have provided one citation to the draftified article, please read WP:V and WP:GNG. Additionally, please also read WP:Conflict of interest, if you have a conflict of interest to the subject, you are expected to disclose them, see the linked article for more info. Justiyaya 14:39, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- I probably should expand on the process on what you should do before submitting an article
- If you have a conflict of interest with the subject, please first disclose them.
- Make sure the subject meets our notability guidelines
- Ensure that all information likely to be challenged is supported by a reliable source
- Ensure that all information is written in a neutral tone (WP:NPOV)
- Submit and wait for reivew
- Many articles I've looked at on the page you provided is flawed and needs to be cleaned up significantly, some possibly deleted. Writing an new article is really really challenging process for beginners, consider trying another task here, happy editing! Justiyaya 14:53, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
