AFC Help

Hi Admin, I have created so many pages, but you people keep rejecting them. I am not getting they are such popular comedians, organisation, professor etc. Can you guide me, what is wrong with them? Ask anybody, all are industry leaders and globally recognised subjects. Please google them. I request you to fix them and accept. I don't think any of these 4-5 pages have any issue. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Suzanne_Maman https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Chris_Estrada_(comic) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:BoAt https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Jared_Goldstein Rickinmorty (talk) 12:09, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for reaching out. Feedback below:
  • Draft:Suzanne Maman: Notable academic for sure. Check GS here [1]. She is better cited than far many academics who are here. Find sources and discuss her work. I am okay to accept it.
  • Draft:Chris Estrada (comic): Seems notable. Fundamental is simple - if he has one or more notable works he should be notable. The Hulu thing seems to be legit. Add more content and strengthen it. I am okay to accept it if you are able to make a case for it.
  • Draft:BoAt: Seems notable with The Ken story which came by searching [2] and Quartz story [3]. Even if we have two solid sources following WP:NCORP, we are good. I see why previous reviewer has left WP:ROUTINE remark because some coverage does look like that. They probably missed seeing these. Remove the acquisition, IPO and other clutter like [4]. I am okay to accept it.

Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 02:14, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

You can submit Suzanne Maman, BoAT. I see you have already submitted Chris. I didn't find any solid reviews of the series The Fool but I am not overly familiar with reliability of american sit come review websites so there might be some merit there. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 15:57, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
I have submitted both and updated the name of boat to boat lifestyle as boat page already exist. I also improved the third page also and trying to look more. Rickinmorty (talk) 16:26, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
I don't see Boat lifestyle new moved draft as submitted to accept but there is a banner - which is strange! Please check again and resubmit. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 16:33, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Comment

Hi Nomadicghumakkad, Good Day to you! According to WP:NMUSICIAN, the article about Jackie Senyonjo meets more than one criteria because not only:

  • One of the Best Uganda Gospel Songwriters and Artists
  • One of the leaders in a mega church in Uganda Kansaga Miracle Center
  • She has more than five albums

I thing these are enough reasons her article to be up Thank You! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Micheal Kaluba (talkcontribs) 16:37, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Hey, none of these are WP:NMUSICIAN. I urge you to read it again. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 16:39, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
This artist is notable nationally and locally because she sings in mainly Luganda Micheal Kaluba (talk) 16:47, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Thats why the article is referenced for you to check from the sources unless you want copy paste from sources Micheal Kaluba (talk) 16:44, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Dear, Sir Why did you decline the page I created?

@Nomadicghumakkad: Dear, Sir Why did you decline the page I created? Mytom3 (talk) 16:57, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Because it doesn't follow notability guidelines like WP:GNG, WP:BASIC or WP:NMUSICIAN. How do you know the subject? Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 16:59, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

hello According to your suggestion, I made some correction. Can you visit again please. Thanks for suggestion Endrabcwizart (talk) 12:52, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

You commented (very reasonably) on Draft:Nick Alm. Note also the creator's username, and this comment of mine, and this. -- Hoary (talk) 08:43, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks Hoary. Yes, the way it is written also indicates WP:COI. I wasn't even sure of the notability and hence didn't venture in to the COI aspect. What's the point of wasting time if it isn't notable at first place. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 14:40, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

The Good Food Project

Hello, saw your comments on the Draft:The Good Food Project, I have extended the article to include more details, I think this is a sustained initiative, I checked the milap crowd funding website, they are still generating funds. They also have a petition which they follow up on. Although I do not live, New Delhi or India, but I think this Wikipedia page will hep the initiative gather funds which will in turn help the workers for whom they set up the project. Elmisnter!

Zap Energy

Greetings, I am reaching out because you flagged the article for Zap Energy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Zap_Energy) because it did not meet the criteria for WP:NCORP.

New Page Patrol newsletter May 2022

New Page Review queue March 2022

Hello Nomadicghumakkad,

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 819 New Page Reviewers, but about a third have not had any activity in the past month. All 859 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.

New Page Patrol newsletter June 2022

New Page Review queue June 2022

Hello Nomadicghumakkad,

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:

Very high unreviewed pages backlog: 11253 articles, as of 06:00, 11 May 2024 (UTC), according to DatBot

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.
  • To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.
Notes
  1. ^ not including another ~6,000 redirects
  2. ^ The number of weekly reviews reported in the NPP feed includes redirects, which are not included in the backlog we primarily track.

New Page Patrol newsletter August 2022

New Page Review queue August 2022

Hello Nomadicghumakkad,

Backlog status

After the last newsletter (No.28, June 2022), the backlog declined another 1,000 to 13,000 in the last week of June. Then the July backlog drive began, during which 9,900 articles were reviewed and the backlog fell by 4,500 to just under 8,500 (these numbers illustrate how many new articles regularly flow into the queue). Thanks go to the coordinators Buidhe and Zippybonzo, as well as all the nearly 100 participants. Congratulations to Dr vulpes who led with 880 points. See this page for further details.

Unfortunately, most of the decline happened in the first half of the month, and the backlog has already risen to 9,600. Understandably, it seems many backlog drive participants are taking a break from reviewing and unfortunately, we are not even keeping up with the inflow let alone driving it lower. We need the other 600 reviewers to do more! Please try to do at least one a day.

Coordination
MB and Novem Linguae have taken on some of the coordination tasks. Please let them know if you are interested in helping out. MPGuy2824 will be handling recognition, and will be retroactively awarding the annual barnstars that have not been issued for a few years.
Open letter to the WMF
The Page Curation software needs urgent attention. There are dozens of bug fixes and enhancements that are stalled (listed at Suggested improvements). We have written a letter to be sent to the WMF and we encourage as many patrollers as possible to sign it here. We are also in negotiation with the Board of Trustees to press for assistance. Better software will make the active reviewers we have more productive.
TIP - Reviewing by subject
Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages by their most familiar subjects can do so from the regularly updated sorted topic list.
New reviewers
The NPP School is being underused. The learning curve for NPP is quite steep, but a detailed and easy-to-read tutorial exists, and the Curation Tool's many features are fully described and illustrated on the updated page here.
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.

Madhuvanti Pal

Hello, I work with a rudra veena musician who is respected in the Dagar and Bishnupur gharanas named Madhuvanti Pal. She evidently had a Wikipedia article submitted, but deleted due to notability guidelines. The person who made her page did her best to follow the guidelines, but it was still deleted. Other artists in dhrupad music have pages that are still up despite not properly following guidelines, so it seems rather inconsistent. What can be done to restore the page?

New pages patrol newsletter

Hello Nomadicghumakkad,

New Page Review article queue, March to September 2023

Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!

October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here.

PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon.

Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.

Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024

Hello Nomadicghumakkad,

New Page Review queue January to March 2024

Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to Schminnte, who led with over 2,300 points.

Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to JTtheOG, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.

It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!

2023 Awards

Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.

Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.

Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.
