Editor experience invitation

Hi Usedtobecool :) I'm looking for people to interview here. Feel free to pass if you're not interested. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 07:03, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Clovermoss, thanks for thinking of me. I remember starting a response but I guess I closed it before I finished, perhaps accidentally, then forgot about it.
Most days, I oscillate between "I have nothing to say" and "I could write a book". Perhaps, some day, if it's an open invitation. Regards! — Usedtobecool ☎️ 17:37, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is definitely an open invitation, feel free to pitch in whenever you wish to. There's no word limit either if you ever do feel like writing a book. :) Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 20:18, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024

Hello Usedtobecool,

New Page Review queue January to March 2024

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

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

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

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

2023 Awards

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

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

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

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

April 2024

Information icon Hello, I'm DIVINE. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Arjun Sapkota have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Khagendra wiki user is their brother Santosh Sapkota, they have created an autobiography about themselves despite running UPE which you always advocate for you reviewed the page which was created by sock if you file spi you can see DIVINE 17:14, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DIVINE, I marked it reviewed because it was at AFD, per NPP procedure. But, yes, I am against all COI/UPE editing and will continue to clean up the Nepal space one article at a time. I have done a lot of work in the past, your articles were only a small part of them. If you have evidence that can help, I am all ears. — Usedtobecool ☎️ 17:30, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have revealed my identity thankyou if you ask me about COI i do have hands on proof of everything DIVINE 17:32, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
DIVINE, I see that you did at AN. But it's just your word, right now. My evidence does not have enough to say who you are one way or the other; it only gives a list of people whose interests you've represented in the past. So, unless you are willing to get verified some way, that does not help at all. — Usedtobecool ☎️ 17:41, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(Redacted) DIVINE 17:43, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
what wrong you did was you doxed my identity and someone used VPN to vandalise your talk page i really know who are you but doxing obiously is no i have filed cybercrime case against you with Nepal police which you will have to be ready with i am already getting death threats thanks to you. DIVINE 17:54, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
DIVINE, if you meant this, it was not a death threat. Like how we have in Nepali, idioms around words like "kill" or "die", that reads like an expression translated from another language. — Usedtobecool ☎️ 01:44, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Newar Edits

Hi, would you mind taking a look at the recent edits being made at Newar language and Newar people, I don't know how far back I should go in the diffs to revert poor editing/vandalism. Thanks, Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 03:26, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would also asked that User:203.78.114.73's edits also be evaluated. They seem to be related. They seem to be in good faith, but missing the mark though. Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 04:01, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Classicwiki, I don't think those articles have a good revision, not anywhere recent anyway. I usually just revert the latest obvious vandalism and leave the rest alone, as I don't have the energy to combat the caste warriors alone. There are far too many castes, clans and family names articles to care about. The IP was already taken care of when I looked. Best, — Usedtobecool ☎️ 14:39, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
