Unreferenced article project

Hi Kazamzam,

You left an invite to the unreferenced article project on my page, thanks. How can I help? Chagropango (talk) 05:59, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

:Hi {{ping|Chagropango}}! Thanks so much for responding! Basically the URA is trying to get through the backlog of completely unreferenced articles that dates back to February 2007, roughly 141,500 articles. The backlog is divided into categories by month (February 2007, March 2007, and so on) that were categorized by a bot with the date they were tagged as unreferenced. The bot also tagged +100,000 articles in December 2009 so that category is HUGE - you can definitely find a topic you are interested in to cite to your heart's content.

:The project page has a how-to guide for finding sources and the format for including them in an article so I won't bore you by repeating all that. I will stress that it's imperative that our citations be relevant, reliable, and verifiable, almost more so than other editors, because poor sources attached to this project undermine our credibility. Google Scholar/Books and JSTOR are definitely your friends and if you are ever having trouble finding sources, feel free to ask me as I have some extra library accesses through my own connections.

:The other big thing is to be sure to remove the unreferenced tag, for tracking purposes, and I use this edit summary to drum up awareness for the project: "Wikipedia:WikiProject Unreferenced articles; you can help!". I like to put at least 2, ideally 3+, references on a given article. If you are unable to find more, the 'more citations' tag is helpful. Also some of these older articles don't have any WikiProject linked to their talk page so adding those, based on subject/area/other criteria, can be a good way to alert the relevant people that it is in need of rescue.

:If you're still interested, we'd be very happy to have you! Best, Kazamzam (talk) 13:57, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

::Wow, that is a lot. I'm not sure how much I could help, but I could definitely do some.

::So all I would need to do is go to the unreferenced article category and select a page? Chagropango (talk) 07:05, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

:::@Chagropango, pretty much! Any article tagged as unreferenced falls under our purview. The main concern is having high quality sources but if you have something good, let it rip. Kazamzam (talk) 15:00, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

::::Alright, thanks. What do you mean by "something good" though? I would think if a source is not high quality it would not be good. Chagropango (talk) 15:06, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

::::Oh also I just saw on your page you have a translation contest for women's biographies, is it too late to get in on that? Chagropango (talk) 15:08, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

:::::@Chagropango the translation contest is open, go for it!

:::::As for reliable sources, this is a great how-to guide with information on Wikipedia's reliable source policy. Basically making sure we're not getting info from uncited Wordpress/Blogspot blogs that are full of personal opinions and no facts. So the New York Times, Cochrane reviews, JAMA, the Lancet, the Economist, the Wall Street Journal, etc. would all be considered reliable sources. The other big thing is to make sure that we're not citing sources that are citing Wikipedia as their source. There is also the Wikipedia Reference Search which is a modified version of Google that only returns results from sites (some) editors consider generally reliable. Does that make sense? Kazamzam (talk) 15:33, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

::::::Yes, got it. Chagropango (talk) 15:46, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

Help request

{{ping|Kazamzam}} can you please help me with the Draft:Sajid Mir and Draft:G Bidai. Notability is widely established and I am confident of NOTABILITY. Regards _{- Signed by}NeverTry4Me ^Talk 07:06, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

:Hi @NeverTry4Me - I will try to get to these but I'm working on the Kenya stubs so I'm not sure I can. My suggestions would be to polish the language more so than the references, i.e. removing terms like 'a.k.a.', cleaning up some grammar points, etc. I'm not an AfC reviewer but I think these probably meet notability criteria so just try to be patient! It will happen! Kazamzam (talk) 14:06, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Edit

Why did you revert an edit I was stil working one and uploading more images? SULNOUR (talk) 18:22, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

:Because the photo you tried to upload did not actually appear as an imagine on the page, just a box of dead pixels. Try uploading it to Wikimedia and then using the visual editor to add it to the page. Kazamzam (talk) 18:26, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

::I was doing just that when you cut me short. They are there nowSULNOUR (talk) 18:36, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

:::Okay? It was unclear what you were doing as you didn't leave a clear edit summary. If you make an edit that is flawed, it is the prerogative of other users to revert it. Kazamzam (talk) 18:39, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

Unreferenced article

Hi, in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Juliana_of_Stolberg&type=revision&diff=1110681402&oldid=1076027661 this edit] you added a reference to "Edmundson 1911" but did not define the reference. This makes the article appear in :Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors, and means it is impossible for anyone to look the reference up. If you could fix this that would be great.

Buryatia

Buryatia's men are exterminated by Russia. If it is not history, it may be politics, demography and many others. Why don't you cooperate but impose your opinions. There is the Talk:Buryatia page to discuss. Xx236 (talk) 06:17, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

• You are the one imposing your opinions. None of the people on the talk page have agreed with the edits you are making, some of which have been reverted. My edits are directly relevant as part of the imperial and Soviet history of Buryatia. Comments about the effects of the war on the Buryat people would like be better on Buryats. Alternatively, make a separate page of, for example, Buryats in the Russo-Ukrainian War. There is a lot of information that needs to be collected and sorted, but it does not belong in the history of the Republic of Buryatia section. Do not attempt to scold me about this again.

list of Asteraceae genera

Thank you! I'm not done yet (in the S-es, going backwards), but I'm getting there! :) Thank you for noticing. It will still need citations until I get finished, and I'm up in the air about keeping the common names that are already in there. Cited some of them, and if they are kept, will have to cite the rest. – Elizabeth (Eewilson) (tag or ping me) (talk) 03:34, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

Translation tool - not so slick, or is it me?

Dear Kazamzam! Thanks so much for your helpful intervention on the page I started, Jewish Association for Protection of Girls and Women. Using the translation tool in he:en presumably will handle the reference citations (of which there are many in English!) and images, but numerous chaotic attempts failed to produce the desired results while I concentrated on producing chunks of text and section headings. Admittedly I only glanced over the tool's FAQ and relied on my general skill set. The "Under construction" template you added is the one I sought and hadn't found, so I'll add it to my tool kit for future use. Much appreciated! Cheers -- Deborahjay (talk) 14:42, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

:Oh, the translation tool is awful. You're doing great, just keep going. You can translate some of the Hebrew references and add it to the en-page if you want to incorporate that into the citation but strictly speaking using non-English language references without translation is fine (if a little frustrating to readers). Happy to help if you need a hand! @Gilabrand and @Gidonb recently helped out with rescuing Yoel Drubin and might have more experience navigating Hebrew sources than me and might be good resources if you get stuck in the future. All the best! - Kazamzam (talk) 15:02, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

This is somewhat of a sequel to last year's Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Brunch in terms of the participants, though this time it is an evening event in a different borough.

We may leaven the event with a few impromptu lightning talks, a Wiki-fashion show (yes, really!), and likely an afterparty tour.

Question about Template - Backlog progress bar

While working on :Category:Articles lacking sources from August 2007 I saw your progress update (09:36, 4 September 2023‎). Question: how to find number for "Initial"? Before asking here, I did read the template docs and searched at WP:VPT, without finding an answer. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 23:11, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

:Hi! There's two answers to the this question. If you check out the edit history, you'll see that most of those categories, including August 2007, didn't have a progress bar before I started on them back in July 2022. That's not the "initial" number as in the number of articles ever tagged as unreferenced in August 2007 but it's the number the tracking began at.

:The better answer, and probably the one I should have used but didn't know about when I made it, is the historical count data from [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Unreferenced_articles/Historical_data&diff=prev&oldid=639893544 here] that was scraped from Wayback Machine captures by @Altamel. That tracking started in August 2009, so it's also not totally accurate. However because they are much earlier, numbers are closer to the true number that each category started with and much larger than what we had in July 2022 (August 2007 was 3061, for example).

::Indeed, and I am very pleased to see that somebody has found my tracking to be useful. The WayBack Machine captures only have useable data as far back as August 2009. I have been updating the numbers on February 11 of each year for the past nine years, so that, even though the initial counts have been lost to the sands of time, we still have a pretty accurate understanding of the year-by-year decrease since 2015.

A look at what we've accomplished, working together

style="vertical-align:top;border: 1px gray solid; padding: 1em; width: 65%; " |

Our tiny task force is working to improve coverage of the world's lichens – unique symbiotic organisms composed of one or more fungal partners with one or more photosynthetic partners. They're found around the world, covering more than 7% of the earth's surface – from frigid polar areas to the steamy equator, from the edges of lapping seas to the highest mountains, and from city walls to the most pristine wilderness areas. They provide food and nesting material for myriad animal species, may be major players in the creation of soil from rock, and produce substances which may prove beneficial in our fight against pathogenic organisms. Want to learn more? Join us!

| rowspan="3" style="vertical-align:top;border: 1px gray solid; padding: 1em; width: 34%;" |

;Articles of note

New featured list:

Outline of lichens (October 29)

New good articles:

Teloschistaceae (9 September) – a large family of mostly lichen-forming fungi
Elke Mackenzie (18 October) – a noted British lichenologist who was also part of a secret WWII mission to Antarctica

style="vertical-align:top;border: 1px gray solid; padding: 1em;" |

; Project news

{{noping|Esculenta}} has been on a tear recently and now has six articles under consideration for good article status: Anaptychia ciliaris, Buellia frigida, Chrysothrix chlorina, Placidium arboreum, Pulchrocladia retipora, and Punctelia.
{{noping|Esculenta}} has also submitted Teloschistaceae (which received its GA star in September) for consideration as a featured article.
We now have articles about two additional noted lichenologists: Vitus Grummann and Oscar Klement.
"Year of description" categories have been added to all genus and species articles.
The number of genus and species articles continues to grow. We now have 935 articles about lichen genera and more than 2100 (including redirects) about lichen species.
It's not all good news: The number of articles on our [https://bambots.brucemyers.com/cwb/bycat/Fungi_Lichen_task_force.html cleanup listing] has also grown, with 5% of the task force's articles showing some sort of potential issue. These range from missing or unreliable sources to dead external links and orphaned articles. Some of these could probably be sorted relatively quickly, if you're looking for a fast way to help the project improve the quality of its coverage.

; Newsletter challenge

The "Phytochemistry" section in our Stereocaulon ramulosum is convoluted and virtually unreadable – and has had a "clarification needed" tag since July of 2022. The editor who whips this short section into shape (and the one who cleans up the associated references) will get public kudos in the next newsletter.

Edit

Greetings @Kazamzam, I apologize for the "revert/ rollback" edit that took place @Afro house ,https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Afro_house&action=history.I just realized that when I am switching from visual to source edit and vice versa espcially to navigate to the talk page which , I was intending on doing at that time, when I hit 'cancel' or refresh the browser it seems to backtrack somehow - as I had no reasons to rollback your edits and I honestly don't even know how to, your edits were also obvious improvements. ToosieJoosie (talk) 21:48, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

:P.S..Thank you for actually writing this in the edit summary because I had no idea this was happening or even how and of course this could be a major problem on other pages or for other editors, which I am/genuinely not even aware of or intentionally, doing. ToosieJoosie (talk) 21:50, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

::Hi @ToosieJoosie - thank you for your message and for clarifying. Since you're new, I wanted to let you know two things. One, when you add a reference to an article that is tagged as "unreferenced", please be sure that there is a reference section, and if not to please create one. You can use the template reflist by typing {{reflist}} in the source editor, or by clicking 'Insert Template' in the visual editor. The references section should go between (if these are present in the article) 'See also' and 'External links', per the Wikipedia Manual of Style (MOS). Two, when you add a reference, please be sure to remove the "unreferenced" tag, usually at the top of the page for tracking purposes. If you have only added one source, it's usually best to add the "refimprove" template so that readers and other editors know that the article has uncited information. The majority of my work is in WikiProject Unreferenced articles so I see a lot of these articles and I wanted to let you know before it becomes an editing habit. Thank you for your work and please keep it up! Just be sure that whatever source you are adding is reliable/independent/verifiable and truly confirms whatever is being stated in the article. A bad reference is worse than no references.

::If you have any questions about citing, finding sources, or anything else, please let me know. Best, Kazamzam (talk) 15:12, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

:@Simuliid - The reference you cited says that Hebia is a monotypic genus; if that's the case, then Hebia cinerea should be deleted.

Eastern West Virginia Community and Technical College References

Can you please explain why the references for the president and the academics were removed when these were references from the college itself? I am referring to the page [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Eastern_West_Virginia_Community_and_Technical_College&action=history here]. I am somewhat confused as primary sources can be reliable and this website is the most accurate on the president and degrees offered, as it is the college itself. I'm just wondering why you seen it as an unreliable source

Please see "Primary" does not mean "bad" SkylarArte (talk) 13:53, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

:Thank you for your comment. I'm more okay with primary sources for topics related to biology/chemistry, i.e. the first reporting of a new species. While I agree that primary does not mean bad, this is not an independent source. Given that this is a community college, there are other, independent/third-party sources that I think can provide similar information of equal quality without the inherently promotional nature that comes from citing a subject's own website. I would have been fine including the websites you referenced in the external links section and we could use the inline citations tag as a happy middle ground.

:Examples of sources I found from a quick search for information about the president of the college (for example) are [https://parsonsadvocate.com/pa-school/eastern-wv-community-and-technical-college-announces-new-early-college-healthcare-programs/ here], [https://wvmetronews.com/2020/08/24/another-search-to-launch-for-next-president-of-eastern-west-virginia-community-and-technical-college/ here], and [https://www.times-news.com/striplin-named-president-at-eastern-college/article_3352adbc-9948-11eb-ad00-93ab0d2ea7c5.html here]. I'm happy to help with referencing - just please be sure to remove the 'unreferenced article' tag from whatever page you are providing sources for. Best, Kazamzam (talk) 14:18, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

::Okay, that is understandable to have an independent source that has similar information. However, there should be a reference to the degrees that the college is offering too. While it may be easy to find the president through news sources, I have been unable to find one listing out the degrees that are offered at this college.

::I was unaware that I should have removed the 'unreferenced article' though, so I appreciate the reminder. Thanks, SkylarArte (talk) 14:46, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Delirium Books Citations for Books Published

Hello, thank you for your comments on the requirements for secondary sources on the Delirium Books article. I am looking at all of the other books in the article, and none of them have third-party citations either. The links to the respective years in literature go to other articles on Wikipedia that do not actually list the title referenced. So, I am trying to figure out what you're looking for here that the other books have, but my additions did not.

Thanks in advance for your help. Wordgrinder89 (talk) 19:42, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

:Hi @Wordgrinder89 - thank you for your message. The way I see it, there are two major issues with this article.

:1) Lack of sources establishing the notability of the subject as a publishing company per the notability guidelines for organizations and companies. These need to be (I'm summarizing the guidelines here) multiple, reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject and provide significant coverage. So a review of a book that they published with the single clause 'published by Delirium Books' does not cut it; this is also why something from the founder (not independent) or the publisher's website itself (very not independent) doesn't work either. I was hopeful that I might find articles about the Bram Stoker Award from the HWA or the Shocker Award for Small Press of the Year, but I haven't come up with anything yet.

:2) The list of books themselves should, in my opinion, be deleted or significantly revamped. First, per WP:NOTCATALOG, a Wikipedia article is not an indiscriminate catalog of products unless there is an independent source and encyclopedic significance of the mention (from mainstream media sources, books that provide commentary on these details) - just product reviews do not cut it. Second, per the guidelines on stand-alone lists, this catalog of books is not an appropriate topic for its own list article.

:So to clarify, it's not what the other books have that your additions did not; it's that I think most, if not all, of these books should be removed as well, and your edit alerted me to this and I did not want the catalog to get any bigger. The real task now is to determine what about the publisher is notable with sources that meet the above criteria and which, if any, of these books should be included on the article. If you look at other, massive articles like Lady Gaga, you can see that there's a link to the Lady Gaga discography article, but a curated selection of her albums. I think what would be best is to establish notability for the publishing house and then find the most notable books and include them with appropriate sourcing.

:If there are no sources to be found that meet these criteria, the article will likely be deleted. I really don't want this to happen as I'm a big fan of small presses but I hope my explanation clarifies why the article is not up to the WP standards in its current form. I'm very happy to work on this with you further and hopefully we can get it into decent shape! If you have any questions, please let me know. Best, Kazamzam (talk) 20:06, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

::Okay, thank you so much for the explanation. I was hoping to provide a list of publications for collectors, but I reviewed the WP:NOTCATALOG guidelines and see your point. I am new to editing Wikipedia articles, so this helps a lot. (I suspect there are many articles in violation of this, but I understand we can't possibly catch them all. Humans! :-) I will see what I can find when I have some more time to work on it. I feel certain I can find reference to the Stoker Award at least, since the results were usually published in Locus SF magazine. Wordgrinder89 (talk) 20:42, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

Collaboration

Hi Kazamzam: I'm thinking that the easiest thing to do might be to start a collaboration page from the task force project pages. That way, we could all contribute and then move the article to live space once it's got a decent start. (I prefer not to put it in draft space – otherwise we need to wait for someone to "approve" it before it can be moved.) What do you think about making "Lichens and climate change" our first collab? MeegsC (talk) 15:19, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

:Okay, I've added a collaboration page here. Once we've chosen a nomination, we can get stuck in! MeegsC (talk) 16:18, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

::@MeegsC - you’re a superstar! I’ll start looking for references for climate change and air pollution. Just a note that we don’t need someone to approve the draft, we can do it ourselves as long as we’re not putting it through the AfC process. Let me know what you think of the draft idea - I haven’t used a collaboration page but it sounds fun!

::I see a potential trio of articles are feed into each other: climate change, air pollution, and conservation (this could be the broadest one and touch on conservative status but also topics like conservation efforts, i.e. something like adaptive coral breeding for warmer temperature, if such a thing is happening). I can peruse some of the larger journals to get ideas for other topics that are broadly aligned with these but I think it’s a great start! Kazamzam (talk) 17:14, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

:::I think we should probably pick one article to start with. I don't know about you, but I have a crazy few months coming up IRL; I'll be in the field with little/no access to the internet for much of Jan/Feb, for example, and have a serious pile of paperwork to finish sorting before I go. Have a look at the nomination page and vote for what you'd like to start with. Or feel free to nominate something else! ;) It'll help me focus my efforts. MeegsC (talk) 18:03, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

::::Looks like nobody else has much to say about a collaboration. Do you have a preference for the first one? I'm going to be a bit hit and miss with my contributions over the next few months, so it'll be your baby to get started! :) MeegsC (talk) 22:06, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

:::::@MeegsC - I hope you have a fun ("fun") time in the field in Jan/Feb and take lots of pictures. I think the air pollution/lichen topic is more specific so I'm inclined to start there. I made a draft in my sandbox and poked at it a little already. My concern is how to organize the article; we could divide the body of the article by pollutant, by area, by historical statistics of the effects of air pollution on lichens and move into the present, we could give notable examples of how certain lichen populations in specific/heavily polluted areas have been impacted, etc. I think a note on how lichens in and around super polluted cities such as New Delhi, Ulaanbaatar, and Mexico City have been affected would be FASCINATING but I'm just not sure. I'll look at some other articles on [blank] and air pollution and see how they're structured. How does this sound to you? Kazamzam (talk) 00:06, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

::::::Sounds great! Would you mind moving your draft to a "Draft" space (call it "Lichens and air pollution"), so that we can all work on it? (I realise we could also do that in your sandbox, but I always feel weird monkeying around in someone else's "space".) Once you've done that, I'll add a link to the draft on the collaboration page, so people know where to look if they want to help. BTW, there's a new book on urban lichens in eastern North America that I'm asking for for Christmas, even though I don't live there. It will almost certainly have information about air pollution! MeegsC (talk) 09:43, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

:::::::Draft created! Can you tell me the title of the book? I'd like to have it for my personal reference (I'm trying to drum up lichen interest in my local park group because we get some unusual flora/fauna as we have one of the few remaining salt marshes in the area) and I can probably find it from my institutional library. If I can get a PDF of it, would you like a copy? Thanks! Kazamzam (talk) 17:23, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

::::::::It's called Urban Lichens (see info [https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300252996/urban-lichens/ here]). Published by Yale University Press. It does throw shade on the whole "Erasmus Darwin as first recorder of lichens as air pollution indicators" though. He was apparently talking about the effects of Java's poison tree!

:Hi Kazamzam, I just read your article. Fascinating! Have you considered submitting it to Did You Know? I think it would be a good candidate, as the first known labour strike. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 15:36, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

::@Mr Serjeant Buzfuz - thank you so much! It's such a big topic with so much material that I wanted the feedback of the AfC process and getting it to a B-class right out the gate is very satisfying. I had a bit of a kerfuffle with a reviewer for my last DYK submission so I will put that to rest and then submit this one. Thank you so much for the feedback and the encouragement!

Happy Holidays

Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, people's rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension.

Note on copying between Wikipedia articles

File:Information.svg Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from :Lichens into :Draft:Lichens and air pollution. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from page name; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{tl|copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 16:07, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Invitation

File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg

:::::Hello {{SAFESUBST:BASEPAGENAME}}, we need experienced volunteers.

::::* New Page Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles. We could use a few extra hands on deck if you think you can help.

::::* Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; Wikipedia needs experienced users to perform this task and there are precious few with the appropriate skills. Even a couple reviews a day can make a huge difference.

::::* Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision (if it looks daunting, don't worry, it basically boils down to checking CSD, notability, and title). If this looks like something that you can do, please consider joining us.

::::* If you would like to join the project and help out, please see the granting conditions. You can apply for the user-right HERE.

::::* If you have questions, please feel free to drop a message at the reviewer's discussion board.

::::* Cheers, and hope to see you around.

New page reviewer granted

File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg

Hi Kazamzam. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at the permissions page in case your user right is time-limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page or ask via the [https://discordapp.com/invite/heF3xPu NPP Discord]. In addition, please remember:

Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page, including checking for copyright violations using Earwig's copyright violation detector, checking for duplicate articles, and evaluating sources (both in the article, and if needed, via a Google search) for compliance with the general notability guideline.
Please review some of our flowcharts (1, 2) to help ensure you don't forget any steps.
Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies.

What's after FEB24

Hey, what should we do after the FEB24 drive has ended? How could we sustain the momentum and make people engaged in the goal? CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 14:54, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

:@CactiStaccingCrane - good question. I was thinking of something similar to what Women in Red (see the above post) do with online events, monthly themes, tips, etc. Getting a newsletter post out monthly to all FEB24 participants would be a great way to sustain engagement (we could aim for a March 15th deadline for tallying and releasing the metrics from FEB24) that spotlights certain areas that might be neglected, partnering with other WikiProjects as a reciprocal cleanup service for exposure (we'll reference articles related to your project in exchange for visibility), etc. There are a lot of options - I think the monthly newsletter is probably the best one just to keep the URA on editors' minds. What do you think? Kazamzam (talk) 15:03, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

::I think we should do all of these at some point in the future, and also FYI, there's a mailing list at Wikipedia:WikiProject Unreferenced articles/Mailing list. For now, I've also outlined some of the stuff that we should do at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Unreferenced_articles#Awarding_the_barnstars. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 15:06, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

A look at what we've accomplished, working together

style="vertical-align:top;border: 1px gray solid; padding: 1em; width: 65%; " |

It's been a busy first quarter for the project, with a staggering 12 new good articles added since the beginning of the year. {{noping|Esculenta}} has led the charge, with assistance from an editor who is thus far unaffiliated with the project. Many thanks to them and to the reviewers who worked with them to help improve the articles. As ever, there's still plenty to do...

| rowspan="3" style="vertical-align:top;border: 1px gray solid; padding: 1em; width: 34%;" |

;Articles of note

New good articles:

Punctelia – 18 January
Chrysothrix chlorina – 22 January
Ramalina peruviana – 24 February
Spot test (lichen) – 27 February
Melanohalea – 29 February
Gustaf Einar Du Rietz – 1 March
Hydropunctaria amphibia – 6 March
Lecideaceae – 17 March

; Project news

Teloschistaceae appeared on Wikipedia's main page as the featured article on 19 February. Kudos to {{noping|Esculenta}}, who shepherded the article to its FA star at the end of last year.
{{noping|MerielGJones}} has expanded her list of contributions featuring important lichenologists, adding a trio of articles in January about British experts: Frank Hatton Brightman, Brian William Fox and William Mudd. {{noping|Esculenta}} added an article for American Reginald Heber Howe, Jr.
All articles (plus lists, categories, redirects, etc.) currently listed under the project's purview have been assessed for their importance and quality. That's nearly 6,000 in total!
We're still working on the outline for the updated lichen article. Once the bare bones have been established and the references collected, we'll start a complete rewrite of this keystone article. Feel free to contribute your ideas!

style="vertical-align:top;border: 1px gray solid; padding: 1em;" |

; Newsletter challenge

{{noping|MariahKRogers}} accepted the last issue's challenge and updated our Gassicurtia article with four additional species now recognised by Species Fungorum as being in the genus.

This time around, we're looking for someone willing to update the species listed in the Byssoloma article, last checked in April of 2021. Species Fungorum now shows five additional species in the genus. The editor who updates the article will receive public kudos in the next newsletter.

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024

style="float: right; border: 1px solid #BBB; background: #FFFFFF;

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

style="float: right;

style="font-size: 86%;"

File:NPP unreviewed article statistics as of April 2, 2024.svg

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 {{no ping|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 {{no ping|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

File:New page reviewer of the year cup.svg

{{no ping|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. {{no ping|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 [https://nppbrowser.toolforge.org/ NPP Browser] tool.

Reminders:

You can access live chat with patrollers on the [https://discordapp.com/invite/heF3xPu New Pages Patrol Discord].

Reversion of student editor changes on [[sea rewilding]]

{{diff2|1219442445|Reverting the entire set of improvements}} from the student editor seems bitey and your edit summary makes it worse. The reason given in your edit summary also doesn't seem accurate (the changes were broken up into multiple edits and the article was made more comprehensive) and the summary fails to explain any of the issues with their changes.

At the very least, you should be explaining the issues on their talk page or on the article talk page. Several edits did contain WP:UGC, specifically Wikipedia references, but those could have been fixed, temporarily changed to {{tlx|citation needed}}, or those specific edits could have been undone individually. The other issues seem like they would be relatively easy to fix (e.g., any essay-like or POV text). It's not on you to make those fixes, of course, but completely reverting the text does not seem like the best solution here.

You might consider restoring the student's version and working from it instead. Regards. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 23:58, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

:@Daniel Quinlan - I appreciate your feedback on this and as I am going through the edits of all the other students in the same course, I will keep this in mind. The issue with the sea rewilding article is that the new editor added 31,000+ bytes to an ~11,000 byte article that included, yes, UGC, but also sentences that were grammatically incorrect, misspellings of words such as "coastal" and "resource" and "environment", entirely subjective statements that did not use an encyclopedic tone, copyright violations, etc. I don't love reverting all these edits but I have a bigger problem allowing that quality and quantity of low-level information to remain on Wikipedia. Furthermore, when I addressed this particular student with the course instructor, the instructor said that the editor's work was a "trainwreck" (their word, not mine) and thanked me for reverting the edits. I disagree that these were "improvements" and I saw that someone from WikiEd had already reached out to the editor about their copying directly from their sandbox and overwriting the existing article, which was the edit summary of every single edit that they made, sans one about rearranging photos. Given this volume, the number of immediately identifiable mistakes and edit guideline/policy violations, the previous warning and continued behaviour, I think this was not bitey but bold and I don't think the edit summary made anything worse. I will be more detailed in my edit summary of the other students going forward and hopefully this will be a learning opportunity for them. Thanks, Kazamzam (talk) 04:17, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

::I'm not going to disagree about the issues. My sense that it was bitey was really a combination of those factors. With 60% of the addition being citations, it seemed like a tractable amount of prose (especially after reverting the additions that had inappropriate citations) and some of the additions would help address shortcomings in the current article. And while it's not a requirement to leave a talk page explanation, it can really help newcomers. And as WP:BITE mentions, it's non-bitey in a good way if you can {{tpq|Improve, don't remove. If something doesn't meet Wikipedia's standards, try to fix the problem rather than just remove what's broken. (Nothing stops new contributors and regulars from coming back like having all their hard work end up in the bit bucket.)}} Thanks for listening. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 05:41, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

I can't believe it

The momentum is still strong! The backlog might actually be cleared! That's amazing! CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 15:10, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

:@CactiStaccingCrane it's going amazingly well! Someone has really been hard at work on October 2012, it's dropped by over FOUR HUNDRED articles in less than a month! Super proud of everyone's effort.

:In terms of next steps, I think we should wait for a few months for the next campaign - maybe August. We can make a planning section on the WP talk page and discuss what worked well, what didn't, how and where to innovate, etc. Since there's a lot of time to plan, I think we'll be able to come up with something really great. I'm interested in making use of an automatic tool like what Asian Month does that assesses submissions under criteria automatically. Kazamzam (talk) 20:19, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
