Newspaperarchive Account
Hello. Mega sorry to be a pain, but I have not had my account generated yet. I applied in February and sent in the initial form on the 15 February 2017. You sent my name in again on the 16 April 2017 [1], but still nothing. Hope the finals went well and please do not do anything too involved in this - make sure you can afford the time to do it; you're studies are much more important. I've been waiting out for 4 months now, a little extra time won't matter. Regards and thanks. The joy of all things (talk) 18:29, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
Administrators' newsletter – June 2017
News and updates for administrators from the past month (May 2017).
- Doug Bell • Dennis Brown • Clpo13 • ONUnicorn
- ThaddeusB • Yandman • Bjarki S • OldakQuill • Shyam • Jondel • Worm That Turned
- An RfC proposing an off-wiki LTA database has been closed. The proposal was broadly supported, with further discussion required regarding what to do with the existing LTA database and defining access requirements. Such a tool/database formed part of the Community health initiative's successful grant proposal.
- Some clarifications have been made to the community banning and unblocking policies that effectively sync them with current practice. Specifically, the community has reached a consensus that when blocking a user at WP:AN or WP:ANI, it is considered a "community sanction", and administrators cannot unblock unilaterally if the user has not successfully appealed the sanction to the community.
- An RfC regarding the bot policy has closed with changes to the section describing restrictions on cosmetic changes.
- Users will soon be able to blacklist specific users from sending them notifications.
- Following the 2017 elections, the new members of the Board of Trustees include Raystorm, Pundit and Doc James. They will serve three-year terms.

The future of NPP and AfC/Work group
Hi Iazyges/Archives/2017,
In view of the huge and sudden backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed since mid 2016, the WMF has begun a dialogue in a quest to examine the situation and possible solutions. Please consider commenting there if you have not already done so. It is highly recommended to read it all before it becomes too long to follow. The project is at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Analysis and proposal, and its talk page.

NewspaperArchive login credentials
Hi Iazyges, thanks for getting my access set up. Step 4 of the instructions says "Once the account is activated either the volunteer coordinator or the partner will send you an email with access information." I have not received this yet. Thanks. Jb45424 (talk) 04:05, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
- I got your email and was able to login and access a page. Thanks for all of your help. Much appreciated. Jb45424 (talk) 04:26, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

How long for access?
I was approved for access to Wikipedia:Newspaperarchive.com on June 12 and have filled out the registration form. I know you don't control what the partner does but do you have an idea how long it will take to get access? Thanks.--Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 16:28, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
- Hello Iazyges. Just to piggyback on Gaarmyvet, I still haven't heard anything after six months. Is there any update? Smmurphy(Talk) 19:22, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
- ...And me, too. Please don't feel like we are ganging up on you, but I also left this [2]message on your Talk page that was archived before you could respond. Regards. The joy of all things (talk) 22:19, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Gaarmyvet:: They haven't responded to my message as of yet. @The joy of all things:@Smmurphy:: I was previously under the impression that users would get an email from the Newspaperarchive staff; can you confirm is this is true or not? I've emailed both of you the contact information, it should work. -- Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 05:12, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks, standing by.--Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 12:56, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
- Yes! The information that you have supplied has worked, however, I have not had any communication with anyone other than you. Thanks for sorting this out. Regards. The joy of all things (talk) 21:22, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
