New Page Reviewer newsletter February 2020

Hello In ictu oculi,

Source Guide Discussion

The first NPP source guide discussion is now underway. It covers a wide range of sources in Ghana with the goal of providing more guidance to reviewers about sources they might see when reviewing pages. Hopefully, new page reviewers will join others interested in reliable sources and those with expertise in these sources to make the discussion a success.

Redirects

New to NPP? Looking to try something a little different? Consider patrolling some redirects. Redirects are relatively easy to review, can be found easily through the New Pages Feed. You can find more information about how to patrol redirects at WP:RPATROL.

Discussions and Resources

• There is an ongoing discussion around changing notifications for new editors who attempt to write articles.
• A recent discussion of whether Michelin starred restraunts are notable was archived without closure.
• A resource page with links pertinent for reviewers was created this month.
• A proposal to increase the scope of G5 was withdrawn.

Refresher

Geographic regions, areas and places generally do not need general notability guideline type sourcing. When evaluating whether an article meets this notability guideline please also consider whether it might actually be a form of WP:SPAM for a development project (e.g. PR for a large luxury residential development) and not actually covered by the guideline.

Once Upon a Time (disambiguation)

This is minor, but, FYI and in case you had a good reason I cannot fathom, I'm reverting your unexplained edit of the section heading from "Literature" (as WP:LONGDAB advises) to "Books" since not one of the entries therein is an actual book: one is a poem, one is an audiobook (on cassette tape) and one is a series of books.

Speedy deletion nomination of Believe Digital

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Believe Digital requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. R3ap3R (talk) 05:14, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Batuka (Madonna song). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Batuka (song). Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Batuka (song). If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Mcampany (talk) 08:18, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello In ictu oculi,

Your help can make a difference

NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference.

Google Adds New Languages to Google Translate

In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.

Discussions and Resources

• A discussion on handling new article creation by paid editors is ongoing at the Village Pump.
• Also at the Village Pump is a discussion about limiting participation at Articles for Deletion discussion.

The Ranch

Hi IIO, Just to let you know, I have moved the page as requested by B2C at WP:RMTR. In doing that I was not specifically endorsing the closure, or indeed rejecting it. It's just that I think if you want to challenge it, rather than holding up the move at RMTR, to go through the normal process of requesting a review on the B2C's talk page and then taking it to WP:MRV if you still want to challenge it. That way other editors can weigh in on whether it was or was not a legitimate NAC. Thanks  — Amakuru (talk) 13:03, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for message. I have requested twice and B2C has refused. I think Move Review only works in exceptionally bad cases, not just not good closes. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:06, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Well, let's be honest, disregarding the procedural issue I think the close is defensible. Even though there was an even split of !votes, the supporters made more of a case than the opposers did - the page views were mentioned several times in support, but the claim that the older film has greater long-term significance was not really backed up with evidence. I think if I had to give an opinion I'd say this was in fact a good close. You could argue that WP:RMNAC was not followed because it was a close call and should have been left for an admin, but that argument doesn't always get supported at MRV. Either way I don't think it would be appropriate for me to overturn B2C's close unilaterally.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:11, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

For the record, my discussion with IIO immediately follows the RM I closed now at Talk:The_Ranch#Requested_move_17_August_2020. —-В²C ☎ 19:07, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Given that the company RM was closed as no consensus I think we need a new RM for the DAB. As you can see the one I filed in 2018 failed with only 1 support (who also supported moving the company to the shorter name and filed the same move in 2009). If you file it it might carry more weight but given a number of people who opposed to the company move did so based on the point that there is no primary topic (4 explicitly argued moving the DAB) we hopefully might get more support this time.

"No other article"

I though Station1 had stopped making plain "no other article" arguments contrary to WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT without any other rationalization like at Talk:Murder in Texas#Requested move 30 June 2020 after the discussion with BrownHairedGirl at User talk:BrownHairedGirl/Archive/Archive 059#There comes a time, obviously not.

As you say obviously not. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:04, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

And its interesting to look at Talk:Oblivious#Requested move 18 October 2020 (the only case I've every known when I have favoured having a primary topic but Station has favoured no primary topic) where the statement "Oblivious would be a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT to a different word, so would need to show most readers clearly looking for that other topic" again seems to be focusing on the title not topic and while the 2nd half of the sentence is true it applies to all primary topics not just those that have a different title. That is to say with Novae, Peanuts and Nightcaps we do need to show that readers are far more likely to be looking for the definite topic rather than the general meaning.

that's not the way it works normally. But whatever I have no interest in either subject. Cheers. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:40, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

Planters

You made a number of edits that appear to have been attempting to file a RM, are you actually going to file one? While there were reasonable arguments against the move I do think its a NOPRIMARY case and the DAB is the best compromise. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:19, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

Yes, for some reason the template wouldn't take. As far as I can see from sources planters means planters, except in US where the peanuts are a brand. A DAB would also be acceptable, as a concession to US based readers. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:16, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

{{subst:requested move|Planters (company)|reason=Reason.}} will do it. Crouch, Swale (talk) 10:22, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

I imagine you'll be as surprised as I was to find that Captain Calm was a BKFIP sock

I chatted with him a while ago and you gave him some baklava.[1] Doug Weller talk 16:05, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

Hmm, @Doug Weller: BKFIP rings a bell, do you have the SPI archive link? I'll take back that baklava though probably stale now. In ictu oculi (talk) 16:18, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi

User:In ictu oculi But this is the official name she uses in her social media accounts and stop lying if you see all the news says Sara Arfeen Khan and she is not a film actress but a television actress. So you are completely wrong here. Sara Khan should completely need to change — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:4C8:B4:5056:E4E6:291F:4E04:FEE7 (talk) 10:04, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Donizetti

Re the opera title: what does it tell you that the French Wikipedia has "Ange", not "ange". No need to refer to pop ;) - This was mentioned in the discussion. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:02, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

That French wikipedia is not a reliable source. In ictu oculi (talk) 16:17, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Sure, only, sometimes the German Wikipedia is more "English" than the English, and in this case, the English Wikipedia seems to be more French then the French. We had the same discussion - with two French users - for La Damnation de Faust, and gave up. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:45, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

New Page Patrol December Newsletter

Hello In ictu oculi,

Year in review

It has been a productive year for New Page Patrol as we've roughly cut the size of the New Page Patrol queue in half this year. We have been fortunate to have a lot of great work done by Rosguill who was the reviewer of the most pages and redirects this past year. Thanks and credit go to JTtheOG and Onel5969 who join Rosguill in repeating in the top 10 from last year. Thanks to John B123, Hughesdarren, and Mccapra who all got the NPR permission this year and joined the top 10. Also new to the top ten is DannyS712 bot III, programmed by DannyS712 which has helped to dramatically reduce the number of redirects that have needed human patrolling by patrolling certain types of redirects (e.g. for differences in accents) and by also patrolling editors who are on on the redirect whitelist.

Reviewer of the Year

John B123 has been named reviewer of the year for 2020. John has held the permission for just over 6 months and in that time has helped cut into the queue by reviewing more than 18,000 articles. His talk page shows his efforts to communicate with users, upholding NPP's goal of nurturing new users and quality over quantity.

NPP Technical Achievement Award

As a special recognition and thank you DannyS712 has been awarded the first NPP Technical Achievement Award. His work programming the bot has helped us patrol redirects tremendously - more than 60,000 redirects this past year. This has been a large contribution to New Page Patrol and definitely is worthy of recognition.
