Ways to improve Tian Shan Astronomical Observatory

Hi, I'm Babymissfortune. Stefka Bulgaria, thanks for creating Tian Shan Astronomical Observatory!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please add categories. Thanks.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Happy holidays! ^{Babymissfortune} 14:57, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Architecture of Almaty

Hello, Stefka Bulgaria. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Architecture of Almaty, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

edit the page
remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

MEK request

I would appreciate if you could "slow down" - e.g. do a small set of edits each day. Since some of your edit chains are blanket reverted by one of our colleagues (a behavior which I do not endorse) - it seems both of you need additional input to break the logjam (which I've been trying to provide). However - it is very difficult for me to get involved when the issue being contested is a very large diff, with an even larger talk page wall of text. If we could tackle smaller edits one at a time - it would be easier for me (and I presume others) to get involved. Icewhiz (talk) 07:46, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the info Icewhiz, good to know, and will work on small edits at a time from now on. Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 07:53, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Stefka Bulgaria, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to People's Mujahedin of Iran have been removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues here.

You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 21:30, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the info, Dianaa, will paraphrase more and quote less from now on. Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 08:38, 18 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

RfC on timeline of People's Mujahedin of Iran

Please see this RFC on article's timeline which you opened in September. I would consider this an 'exhausted' RfC because it looks like it didn't get support and is unlikely to get more in the future. (The only interested people were User:CaroleHenson and maybe User:Pahlevun, who aren't currently active). Do you want to withdraw it, and possibly add a more specific proposal in its place? Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 22:48, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, will withdraw it. Thanks for the notice! Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 14:09, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of 2018–2019 Iranian general strikes and protests for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article 2018–2019 Iranian general strikes and protests is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2018–2019 Iranian general strikes and protests until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Mhhossein ^talk 13:44, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ANI thread closed

I have [I have closed the ANI thread you were involved with. You are strongly warned to avoid making personal attacks, to stop treating Wikipedia as a battleground, to seek consensus rather than edit-warring over contentious material, and to be mindful of our policies about maintaining a neutral point of view." Please read through the comments there, and keep them in mind, so that a sanction does not prove necessary. Regards, Vanamonde (Talk) 06:47, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So.. you warn Stefka and and allow the disruptive editors to continue roaming (even Pahlevun)? Wikipedia gets more and more incompetent as each day goes, nice. Here's to a ton more articles being the target of pov-pushing. --HistoryofIran (talk) 17:43, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@HistoryofIran: No, I warned four editors, including Pahlevun. The discussion was open for over a month, and in that time no consensus for any sanction developed. If you want to open another discussion, feel free. Vanamonde (Talk) 22:27, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I know, but let's be honest, you think a simple warning is gonna make any difference? This issue has been ongoing for so long (at least one year). This is just gonna be another major headache later on, if not several. Also, it's amazing that Stefka is getting grouped with the rest of those editors. It's clear that enough research has not been done on this issue. I mean, what's even the point in opening another discussion? Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be rude, but frustrated and annoyed I indeed am. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:21, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@HistoryofIran: I, personally, don't think a warning is going to make a difference. The community disagreed. I cannot implement a sanction for which no consensus exists. If you want to rail against the general editor body, go ahead, though it won't do you any good; there was no other possible outcome for that thread. Vanamonde (Talk) 14:37, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanamonde93: Thanks for your advice, but could you please help me understand this? Pahlevun removed vast amounts of information backed by RSs, made deceitful POV synthesis in polemical political articles, made libelous BLP violations, and continued to do so after being warned 4 times to stop. This is also been happening for over a year. I bring this to ANI, which is what I was told I should do, and I end up receiving the same sanction (warning) as them, even though all I did was express my concerns of POV-pushing at a RfA in commons. Did I miss something here? There were valid long-term issues with Pahlevun's edits, all of which Pahlevun failed to address or justify. Could you please help me understand this? Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 10:46, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt there's anything I can say that will satisfy you, but here's a couple of things you should remember. First, if there's genuine issues with an editor's behavior on en.wiki, they should be addressed here; opposing their RFA at commons, without making an effort to address your concerns here, isn't appropriate. Second, I did not warn you unilaterally; I did so based on a lack of consensus for anything else at ANI. Finally, you were not sanctioned, you were warned. There's a fundamental difference. If your behavior really is beyond reproach, then you won't face anything further. If Pahlevun stops editing disruptively, then the warning has worked. If he doesn't, he will face a sanction himself. To put it another way; misconduct by another user isn't an excuse for your own; it also makes your claims of misconduct on Pahlevun's part less tenable. Vanamonde (Talk) 14:37, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

apparent typo in one of your somewhat-recent edits

On May 5, in the article Albrechtsburg, you changed "The masterpiece of" to "The w of work of". I am pretty sure the "w of" should not be there, so I'll remove it myself in a little over a week if you neither do that nor respond here in the meantime, but I'm commenting in case you meant something else.

Excessive reverts

You can't keep reverting three times, just shy of 3RR, and not face sanctions for edit warring. I'm telling you now (count it as a warning): that just isn't tenable. El_C 16:17, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@El C: I understand. The issue for me rises when several consecutive edits that violate policies (BIO, NPOV, etc.) are done simultaneously without any consensus, such as these recent ones: [1], [2]. It's a problem. Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 20:46, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like both the pro- and anti-MEK camps, if you will, are doing that. The proposal I made for a new approach to editing the article might be able to address that zero-sum game. Providing everybody is on board. El_C 20:54, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please learn the problem

User Icewhiz fights a war against Polish people. This is a problem for Wikipedia, not for me. Regarding the Lublin spitting, it's a part of a long controversy. Spitting on a Polish ambassador is a bigger issue than spitting on a tourist. The person who spat on the ambassador has not been punished, the one who spat on the tourist was harsly punished. It's only one of thousands such incidents and historical fact manipulated by Icewhiz. Xx236 (talk) 07:23, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A typical page by Icewhiz Disruption of Holocaust conference in Paris.Xx236 (talk) 08:14, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I see you know Icewhiz' creativity, but you see me. He creats 100 more edits than me. His method is to select anti-Polish statements using Google, to create a page or section, to oppose any corections. A non-real example Poles are pigs, let's google, let's write.Xx236 (talk) 08:53, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The New Polish School of Holocaust Scholarship, disruption aside, was in fact a celebration or international recognition of the groundbreaking work done by Polish scholars in this field in the past twenty years. While the New school has faced reactionary government (PiS) push-back in recent years, it is very much a scholarly accomplishment that took place (mostly - there are two significant Polish expats as well - but they worked off Polish archives) inside Poland.[4] Icewhiz (talk) 09:27, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Xx236, making claims such as "how Icewhiz manipulates", etc, without evidence (as you've done here), constitutes WP:CASTING ASPERSIONS. If you have an issue with the sources Icewhiz is providing, then I'd advice that you focus on those instead. Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 06:57, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Iranian politics general sanctions notice

Please read this notification carefully: it contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

A community discussion has authorised the use of general sanctions to curtail disruption in articles related to post-1978 Iranian politics, broadly construed. Before continuing to make edits that involve this topic, please read the full description of these sanctions here.

General sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. It is only effective if it is logged here. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Your comment After the close, VR was advised to continue discussion on either the article Talk page or personal Talk pages, but both Mhhossein and VR have a tendency to instead complain... belies the fact that Chetsford actually "encouraged" me (their words, not mine) to seek review. But judging by your comment, you seem to have entirely missed that part of their comment.

Why do I bring this up? Because I have found that sometimes you don't seem to read my comment before opposing it. You have every right to disagree with me, but for that you need to read my comment first. For example, when I said the RfC was malformed your response indicates you totally misread my comment, until I repeated my comment and then corrected understood it.

Please take care.VR _talk 19:22, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rest assured that your comments/posts are being read very carefully. You were told that "accusing someone of blindly voting without any form of ground definitely doesn't fit in the civil category", yet you alluded to that at ANI, and now you're doing it here. That you don't always express yourself clearly, or that there can be a miscommunication issue, are both also probabilities in these discussions, so let me close this conversation by saying that votes/comments on the MEK's Talk page are being read before they are posted, so please stop suggesting otherwise.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mary Ann Newman

Hi, Stefka. I don't agree with your close here. Will you reconsider, please?—S Marshall T/C 00:43, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Well, clearly there is no consensus to delete, since none of the three participants opted to do so. So, what sort of closure (or otherwise) result are you expecting with this challenge? El_C 00:48, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I certainly don't see a consensus that receiving the Creu de Sant Jordi establishes notability. In my view the correct outcome would be "no consensus" (enabling me to promptly renominate it for deletion).—S Marshall T/C 00:57, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Two of the three participants seem to think so, though I agree with you that it is puzzling to conceive that being a recipient of this award merits a page. El_C 01:05, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There were four participants; if you're going to count Davidpar who created the page, then it's only fair to count me. :) I don't think pburka's contribution makes sense. I mean, yes, Ms Newman has translated an article that's notable. I translated Catherine Bréchignac: does that make me notable? We'd normally say that notability isn't inherited.—S Marshall T/C 01:10, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

For sure, fair points. The correct outcome is probably for the page to be deleted at this time. But I'm not sure I know how to make that happen, procedurally. El_C 01:15, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ideally, Stefka would either relist, or else reclose as no consensus enabling me to renominate for deletion. Less ideally we could go to deletion review seeking one of those outcomes.—S Marshall T/C 01:24, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Right. Stefka Bulgaria, I would encourage you to supplant the closure with a relist. The strength of the arguments, irrespective of the tally, seems rather frail. El_C 01:26, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've self-reverted my close so that someone else can close that AfD. Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 08:03, 19 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AfD Closing/Relisting

Hi I'm Barkeep49, an administrator here. I am writing to ask that you please stop closing/relisting Articles for Deletion discussions. You attracted my attention after you relisted Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rameez Raja (actor) for which there was a bot notice that it was eligible for soft deletion. This should have been a hint that it was not an appropriate close. I then came to your talk page and saw the discussion about Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mary Ann Newman. I then opened up your contribuations and saw Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Richard Calderón which you closed as no consensus. This might have been appropriate when weighting for CONSENSUS, but it was not a clear close given that numerically more editors favored keep 5-3 and thus not a good discussion for a non-adminstrator close. The last AfD I checked was Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Empowerment Experiment which was also eligible for soft deletion. While four is not a huge sample it is concerning that literally every AfD close I checked had an issue. This suggests that you would be better off participating at AfD (we need more participants) than closing discussions at this time. Barkeep49 (talk) 20:33, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Barkeep49, I have no problems with focusing on other aspects at AfD. I just don't see what the big problem is with my work there:

About relisting Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rameez Raja (actor), I had missed the WP:NOQUORUM clause, and thought the article could do with more than one vote before being deleted.
About relisting Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mary Ann Newman, that ended up in "no-consensus"; with the article being kept (which is the consensus I had given it).
About closing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Richard Calderón as no consensus, as I see it, the article will likely end up in "no-consensus" or being kept.
About relisting Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Empowerment Experiment , I also thought it could do with more than a single vote before being closed.

To me, these actions don't seem unreasonable, but I don't mind focusing on other aspects of the AfD process. Regards, Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 16:12, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Stefka Bulgaria, no consensus and keep both mean that the article remains. However, there are differences - for instance renominating a short time after a keep AfD is disruptive but it's not disruptive for a no consensus. I appreciate your willingness to focus your energies in other ways. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 16:41, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

4) Drafts initiated by me Draft:Women, conflict and conflict zones, Draft:Sexual politics (Gender politics) have been listed for deletion since not updated for last five months, I am looking for some help in these draft expansions.

5) Drafts initiated by me Draft:Sexual politics in Muslim societies, Draft:Autobiographies of Muslim and Ex-Muslim Women and Draft:Feminism in Urdu literature got deleted due to no edits in previous six months. Specially I am looking for some proactive support in recovering and expanding Draft:Sexual politics in Muslim societies.

Erwin Henning moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Erwin Henning, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Good catch on this. I actually deleted it as WP:G3, reverted the vandalism on Stevenage F.C. and indef blocked the creator. To nitpick, "Stevenage manager" (ie: managing a fully professional league-level football club) is a claim of importance; however the manager is Alex Revell so it's not credible - so A7 would have worked as well.

New Page Patrol newsletter May 2022

Hello Stefka Bulgaria,

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 808 New Page Reviewers, but about a third have not had any activity in the past month. All 845 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

Hello Stefka Bulgaria,

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: 14569 articles, as of 04:00, 19 December 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.

^ not including another ~6,000 redirects
^ 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

Hello Stefka Bulgaria,

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.

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.

Dear HistoryofIran, thank you for the encouragement. Like others on this site, I've been feeling discouraged by the constant admin mismanagement and general incompetence, which gives me little hope for this site.

Delia Grace Randolph

Hi @Stefka Bulgaria: How goes it? When your reviewing a page on an academic, please remember to check Google Scholar for academic prowess. Randolph who uses her short name Delia Grace had more than 30 papers with 100+ citations. More than 5 papers with 100+ citations means they are likely notable. Generally when its full professor they are usually notable. I fixed up the article a wee bit to make it a bit more presentable and removed the speedy. scope_creep^Talk 10:26, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Scope_creep; ok, thanks for the notice. Hope all is well. Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 10:28, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yea, it would have been back in at some point I guess in the future. She is massively creative, so would only a matter of time. Have you see Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red. They are looking for folk like yourself. They are trying to address the inherent WP:BIAS in Wikipedia, by creating lots of biographies of women. You seem to be able write biographies with remarkable ease. Would you be interested in something like that? scope_creep^Talk 10:35, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that looks very interesting. Been meaning to get involved in something new that would be useful to the project; will have a closer look... Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 10:40, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Women in Red

Hi there, Stefka Bulgaria, and welcome to Women in Red. I'm glad you followed up on scope creep's suggestion and now intend to help us reduce the gender gap on Wikipedia. I see you have extensive experience in writing biographies. Even so, you might find it useful to look through our Ten Simple Rules. If you browse through our Redlist index, you should be able to find women worth writing about in the fields or countries in which you are interested. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 09:35, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Patrol newsletter October 2022

Hello Stefka Bulgaria,

Much has happened since the last newsletter over two months ago. The open letter finished with 444 signatures. The letter was sent to several dozen people at the WMF, and we have heard that it is being discussed but there has been no official reply. A related article appears in the current issue of The Signpost. If you haven't seen it, you should, including the readers' comment section.

Awards: Barnstars were given for the past several years (thanks to MPGuy2824), and we are now all caught up. The 2021 cup went to John B123 for leading with 26,525 article reviews during 2021. To encourage moderate activity, a new "Iron" level barnstar is awarded annually for reviewing 360 articles ("one-a-day"), and 100 reviews earns the "Standard" NPP barnstar. About 90 reviewers received barnstars for each of the years 2018 to 2021 (including the new awards that were given retroactively). All awards issued for every year are listed on the Awards page. Check out the new Hall of Fame also.

Software news: Novem Linguae and MPGuy2824 have connected with WMF developers who can review and approve patches, so they have been able to fix some bugs, and make other improvements to the Page Curation software. You can see everything that has been fixed recently here. The reviewer report has also been improved.

Suggestions:

There is much enthusiasm over the low backlog, but remember that the "quality and depth of patrolling are more important than speed".
Reminder: an article should not be tagged for any kind of deletion for a minimum of 15 minutes after creation and it is often appropriate to wait an hour or more. (from the NPP tutorial)
Reviewers should focus their effort where it can do the most good, reviewing articles. Other clean-up tasks that don't require advanced permissions can be left to other editors that routinely improve articles in these ways (creating Talk Pages, specifying projects and ratings, adding categories, etc.) Let's rely on others when it makes the most sense. On the other hand, if you enjoy doing these tasks while reviewing and it keeps you engaged with NPP (or are guiding a newcomer), then by all means continue.
This user script puts a link to the feed in your top toolbar.

Backlog:

Saving the best for last: From a July low of 8,500, the backlog climbed back to 11,000 in August and then reversed in September dropping to below 6,000 and continued falling with the October backlog drive to under 1,000, a level not seen in over four years. Keep in mind that there are 2,000 new articles every week, so the number of reviews is far higher than the backlog reduction. To keep the backlog under a thousand, we have to keep reviewing at about half the recent rate!

Reminders

Newsletter feedback - please take this short poll about the newsletter.
If you're interested in instant messaging and chat rooms, please join us on the New Page Patrol Discord, where you can ask for help and live chat with other patrollers.
Please add the project discussion page to your watchlist.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be a reviewer, please ask any admin to remove you from the group. If you want the tools back again, just ask at PERM.

The Arbitration Committee have declined your appeal of your topic ban. Per the terms of your ban you can next appeal in 12 months time. The archived request can be viewed here. For the Arbitration Committee, –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 17:38, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know, @MJL: Could you advice if I would still be able to make corrections to articles that aren't specifically about Iranian politics, but involve companies controlled by the Iranian government? For example, I see that in my absence, sourced information about an Iranian company has been removed from the article with no apparent justification. Would I be able to restore information of that nature? Stefka Bulgaria (talk) 08:26, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am not an admin, nor am I a member of the Arbitration Committee which enacted your topic ban.

New Pages Patrol newsletter January 2023

Hello Stefka Bulgaria,

Backlog

The October drive reduced the backlog from 9,700 to an amazing 0! Congratulations to WaddlesJP13 who led with 2084 points. See this page for further details. The queue is steadily rising again and is approaching 2,000. It would be great if <2,000 were the “new normal”. Please continue to help out even if it's only for a few or even one patrol a day.

2022 Awards

Onel5969 won the 2022 cup for 28,302 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 80/day. There was one Gold Award (5000+ reviews), 11 Silver (2000+), 28 Iron (360+) and 39 more for the 100+ barnstar. Rosguill led again for the 4th year by clearing 49,294 redirects. For the full details see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone!

Minimum deletion time: The previous WP:NPP guideline was to wait 15 minutes before tagging for deletion (including draftification and WP:BLAR). Due to complaints, a consensus decided to raise the time to 1 hour. To illustrate this, very new pages in the feed are now highlighted in red. (As always, this is not applicable to attack pages, copyvios, vandalism, etc.)

New draftify script: In response to feedback from AFC, the The Move to Draft script now provides a choice of set messages that also link the creator to a new, friendly explanation page. The script also warns reviewers if the creator is probably still developing the article. The former script is no longer maintained. Please edit your edit your common.js or vector.js file from User:Evad37/MoveToDraft.js to User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft.js

Redirects: Some of our redirect reviewers have reduced their activity and the backlog is up to 9,000+ (two months deep). If you are interested in this distinctly different task and need any help, see this guide, this checklist, and spend some time at WP:RFD.

Discussions with the WMF The PageTriage open letter signed by 444 users is bearing fruit. The Growth Team has assigned some software engineers to work on PageTriage, the software that powers the NewPagesFeed and the Page Curation toolbar. WMF has submitted dozens of patches in the last few weeks to modernize PageTriage's code, which will make it easier to write patches in the future. This work is helpful but is not very visible to the end user. For patches visible to the end user, volunteers such as Novem Linguae and MPGuy2824 have been writing patches for bug reports and feature requests. The Growth Team also had a video conference with the NPP coordinators to discuss revamping the landing pages that new users see.

New Pages Patrol newsletter June 2023

Hello Stefka Bulgaria,

Backlog

Redirect drive: In response to an unusually high redirect backlog, we held a redirect backlog drive in May. The drive completed with 23851 reviews done in total, bringing the redirect backlog to 0 (momentarily). Congratulations to Hey man im josh who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by Meena and Greyzxq with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See this page for more details. The redirect queue is steadily rising again and is steadily approaching 4,000. Please continue to help out, even if it's only for a few or even one review a day.

Redirect autopatrol: All administrators without autopatrol have now been added to the redirect autopatrol list. If you see any users who consistently create significant amounts of good quality redirects, consider requesting redirect autopatrol for them here.

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team, consisting of Sam, Jason and Susana, and also some patches from Jon, has been hard at work updating PageTriage. They are focusing their efforts on modernising the extension's code rather than on bug fixes or new features, though some user-facing work will be prioritised. This will help make sure that this extension is not deprecated, and is easier to work on in the future. In the next month or so, we will have an opt-in beta test where new page patrollers can help test the rewrite of Special:NewPagesFeed, to help find bugs. We will post more details at WT:NPPR when we are ready for beta testers.

Articles for Creation (AFC): All new page reviewers are now automatically approved for Articles for Creation draft reviewing (you do not need to apply at WT:AFCP like was required previously). To install the AFC helper script, visit Special:Preferences, visit the Gadgets tab, tick "Yet Another AFC Helper Script", then click "Save". To find drafts to review, visit Special:NewPagesFeed, and at the top left, tick "Articles for Creation". To review a draft, visit a submitted draft, click on the "More" menu, then click "Review (AFCH)". You can also comment on and submit drafts that are unsubmitted using the script.

You can review the AFC workflow at WP:AFCR. It is up to you if you also want to mark your AFC accepts as NPP reviewed (this is allowed but optional, depends if you would like a second set of eyes on your accept). Don't forget that draftspace is optional, so moves of drafts to mainspace (even if they are not ready) should not be reverted, except possibly if there is conflict of interest.

Pro tip: Did you know that visual artists such as painters have their own SNG? The most common part of this "creative professionals" criteria that applies to artists is WP:ARTIST 4b (solo exhibition, not group exhibition, at a major museum) or 4d (being represented within the permanent collections of two museums).

Women in Red 8th Anniversary

	Women in Red 8th Anniversary
	In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!
