Re: Email
Thanks for the concern. I don't think I edit the topic area frequently enough that I would ever warrant being blocked from the area, but I agree that my tone was not ideal. I don't really have much to add to the current dispute anyways, so I will probably not participate much further in the current dispute anyway. Thanks again.

DYK for Vito Trause
On 22 June 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Vito Trause, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Vito Trause, who dropped out of high school during his junior year to join the United States Army in 1943, received his high school diploma at the age of 92? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Vito Trause. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Vito Trause), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

New Page Patrol newsletter June 2022
Hello Mhawk10,
- Backlog status
At the time of the last newsletter (No.27, May 2022), the backlog was approaching 16,000, having shot up rapidly from 6,000 over the prior two months. The attention the newsletter brought to the backlog sparked a flurry of activity. There was new discussion on process improvements, efforts to invite new editors to participate in NPP increased and more editors requested the NPP user right so they could help, and most importantly, the number of reviews picked up and the backlog decreased, dipping below 14,000[a] at the end of May.
Since then, the news has not been so good. The backlog is basically flat, hovering around 14,200. I wish I could report the number of reviews done and the number of new articles added to the queue. But the available statistics we have are woefully inadequate. The only real number we have is the net queue size.[b]
In the last 30 days, the top 100 reviewers have all made more than 16 patrols (up from 8 last month), and about 70 have averaged one review a day (up from 50 last month).
While there are more people doing more reviews, many of the ~730 with the NPP right are doing little. Most of the reviews are being done by the top 50 or 100 reviewers. They need your help. We appreciate every review done, but please aim to do one a day (on average, or 30 a month).
- Backlog drive
A backlog reduction drive, coordinated by buidhe and Zippybonzo, will be held from July 1 to July 31. Sign up here. Barnstars will be awarded.
- TIP – New school articles
Many new articles on schools are being created by new users in developing and/or non-English-speaking countries. The authors are probably not even aware of Wikipedia's projects and policy pages. WP:WPSCH/AG has some excellent advice and resources specifically written for these users. Reviewers could consider providing such first-time article creators with a link to it while also mentioning that not all schools pass the GNG and that elementary schools are almost certainly not notable.
- Misc
There is a new template available, {{NPP backlog}}
, to show the current backlog. You can place it on your user or talk page as a reminder:
>NPP backlog: 10833 as of 02:45, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
There has been significant discussion at WP:VPP recently on NPP-related matters (Draftification, Deletion, Notability, Verifiability, Burden). Proposals that would somewhat ease the burden on NPP aren't gaining much traction, although there are suggestions that the role of NPP be fundamentally changed to focus only on major CSD-type issues.
- Reminders
- Consider staying informed on project issues by putting the project discussion page on your watchlist.
- If you have noticed a user with a good understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, 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.

A friendly reminder
I noticed you templated me for Eastern Europe on 10th June 2022 and previously on 12th June 2021. You are supposed to check editor's talk page before placing templates to ensure that they have not been templated in the last 12 months. May I suggest that you keep a calendar when you template people and it can provide you with a reminder so that you can continue to template them each year, but only after 12 months have passed. TFD (talk) 02:53, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- @The Four Deuces: As far as I can tell, I have never alerted you the discretionary sanctions on Eastern Europe, though feel free to provide a diff if I am mistaken. If you are referring to the WP:UYGHUR notice, I placed the template on your page on 20 June 2022 and previously on 12 June 2021. Is everything alright? — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 03:06, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Deportation of Chinese in the Soviet Union
Hi, I am the translator of Deportation of Chinese in the Soviet Union, which is now under deletion review due to User:折毛's hoax. Although the English version differed from the Chinese version created by 折毛 from the very beginning, it contained English translation of the Chinese content created by 折毛. To eliminate the impact of her content, I have validated the sources and removed all sources if they are unverifiable. Also, I have added new content backed by new reliable sources. I am thankful for your participation in the previous discussion of the deletion review, but now that the deletion review is being relisted, I am not sure whether you might want to take a look at the new, mostly re-written, and validated version of the article and express your opinion in the deletion review. I will be most grateful to your further comment regarding any potential improvement of the article and regarding your decision in the deletion review.
