== TFA ==

Thank you for [[binary search algorithm]], "one of the most ubiquitous algorithms in computing. Binary search is usually one of the first algorithms taught to computer science students. The premise is quite simple: given a sorted list of numbers, binary search eliminates halves of the list in which the number you are looking for cannot lie until it finds the number. However, binary search has lots of subtleties. Surprisingly, when a famous programmer asked his students to implement binary search, 90 percent could not provide a correct solution. I have wrote this article to not only cover those subtleties, but also compare binary search to other search algorithms, placing the algorithm in context. I believe that this article is FA quality as I have strived to place every relevant detail that I could find on binary search, which is surprisingly a lot of details and subtleties that the average textbook chapter on search algorithms neglects to cover."! --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 09:14, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

== Invitation to New AI-Labelling Campaign for Newcomer Sessions ==

Hello, 
I'm reaching out to you because I saw that you signed up as a labelling volunteer at [[Wikipedia:Labels/Edit quality]]. I'm starting a new project that builds on Edit quality, to predict Newcomer quality. That is, to predict the damagingness and goodfaithness of "sessions" (multiple related edits) of users within 1 day of their registration. With this AI trained, we could help automatically distinguish betewen productive and unproductive new users. If you wouldn't mind taking a look at this new labelling campaign and label a few sessions I would be very grateful. In addition if you have any feedback or discover any bugs in the process I would appreciate that too. You can find the project page at [[Wikipedia:Labels/Newcomer_session_quality]] or go directly to [https://labels.wmflabs.org/ui/enwiki/ labels.wmflabs.org/ui/enwiki/] and look for the campaign titled "Newcomer Session quality (2018)". Thanks so much!

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}}, 
;<big>Community Wishlist Survey – NPP needs you – Vote [[m:Community Wishlist Survey 2019/Admins and patrollers/Page Curation and New Pages Feed improvements|NOW]]</big>
*'''Community Wishlist''' Voting takes place '''16 to 30 November'''  for the [[m:Community Wishlist Survey 2019/Admins and patrollers/Page Curation and New Pages Feed improvements|'''Page Curation and New Pages Feed improvements''']], and other software requests. The NPP community is hoping for a good turnout in support of the requests to Santa for the tools we need. This is '''very important''' as we have been asking the Foundation for these upgrades for 4 years.

:If this proposal does not make it into the top ten, it is likely that the tools will be given no support at all for the foreseeable future. So please put in a vote today. 

:We are counting on significant support not only from our own ranks, but from everyone who is concerned with maintaining a Wikipedia that is free of vandalism, promotion, flagrant financial exploitation and other pollution. 

:With all 650 reviewers voting for these urgently needed improvements, our requests would be unlikely to fail. See also [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2018-10-28/Special_report|''The Signpost'' Special report: 'NPP: This could be heaven or this could be hell for new users – and for the reviewers']], and if you are not sure what the wish list is all about, take a sneak peek at an [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Next issue/Special report|article in this month's upcoming issue]] of  ''The Signpost'' which unfortunately due to staff holidays and an impending US holiday will probably not be published until after voting has closed.

;Reviewer of the Year

This year's award for the '''''Reviewer of the Year''''' goes to {{noping|Onel5969}}.  Around on Wikipedia since 2011, their staggering number of 26,554{{nbsp}}reviews over the past twelve months makes them, together with an additional total of 275,285{{nbsp}}edits, one of Wikipedia's most prolific users.
:Thanks are also extended for their work to {{noping|JTtheOG}} (15,059 reviews), {{noping|Boleyn}} (12,760{{nbsp}}reviews), {{noping|Cwmhiraeth}} (9,001{{nbsp}}reviews), {{noping|Semmendinger}} (8,440{{nbsp}}reviews), {{noping|PRehse}} (8,092{{nbsp}}reviews),  {{noping|Arthistorian1977}} (5,306{{nbsp}}reviews), {{noping|Abishe}} (4,153 reviews), {{noping|Barkeep49}} (4,016{{nbsp}}reviews),  and {{noping|Elmidae}} (3,615{{nbsp}}reviews). <br> {{noping|Cwmhiraeth}}, {{noping|Semmendinger}}, {{noping|Barkeep49}}, and {{noping|Elmidae}} have been New Page Reviewers for less than a year — Barkeep49 for only seven{{nbsp}}months, while {{noping|Boleyn}}, with an edit count of 250,000 since she joined Wikipedia in 2008, has been a bastion of New Page Patrol for many years.<br>

;Less good news, and an appeal for some help
[[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog chart|The backlog is now approaching <big>'''5,000'''</big>]], and still rising. There are around 640{{nbsp}}holders of the NPR flag, most of whom appear to be inactive. The 10% of the reviewers who do 90% of the work could do with some support especially as some of them are now taking a well deserved break.


;Really good news - NPR wins the Community Wishlist Survey 2019
At #1 position, the Community Wishlist poll closed on 3{{nbsp}}December with a resounding success for NPP, reminding the WMF and the volunteer communities just how critical NPP is to maintaining a clean encyclopedia and the need for improved tools to do it. A big 'thank you' to everyone who supported the NPP proposals. [[m:Community Wishlist Survey 2019/Results|See the results]].


;Training video
Due to a number of changes having been made to the feed since this three-minute{{nbsp}}video was created, we have been asked by the WMF for feedback on the video with a view to getting it brought up to date to reflect the new features of the system.  Please leave your comments [[Wikipedia_talk:New_pages_patrol/Reviewers#Training_video|here]], particularly mentioning how helpful you find it for new reviewers.

If you have not yet signed up, you can '''[[Wikipedia:WikiCup/2019 signups|add your name here]]''' and we will set up your submissions page. One important rule to remember is that only content on which you have completed significant work during 2019, and which you have nominated this year, is eligible for points in the competition, the judges will be checking! Any questions should be directed to one of the judges, or left on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]]. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will make it to round 2. Good luck!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited [[Army Group A]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Eastern Front]] ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Army_Group_A check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Army_Group_A?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are [[WP:INTDABLINK|usually incorrect]], since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].)</small>

== Please participate to the talk pages consultation ==

Hello

Our team at the Wikimedia Foundation is working on a project to improve the ease-of-use and productivity of wiki talk pages. As a Teahouse host, I can imagine you’ve run into challenges explaining talk pages to first-time participants.

We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis – to ask questions, to resolve differences, to organize projects and to make decisions. Communication is essential for the depth and quality of our content, and the health of our communities. We're currently leading a global consultation on how to improve talk pages, and we're looking for people that can report on their experiences using (or helping other people to use) wiki talk pages. We'd like to invite you to [[Talk pages consultation 2019|participate in the consultation]], and invite new users to join too.

We thank you in advance for your participation and your help.

[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|120px]]

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

;News
*The WMF [https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/01/09/you-can-now-use-google-translate-to-translate-articles-on-wikipedia/ has announced] that Google Translate is now available for translating articles through the [[Wikipedia:Content translation tool|content translation tool]]. This may result in an increase in [[WP:MACHINETRANSLATION|machine translated]] articles in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to use the {{tp|rough translation}} tag and gently remind (or inform) editors that translations from other language Wikipedia pages still require attribution per [[WP:TFOLWP]].

;Discussions of interest
*Two elements of [[Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#G6._Technical_deletions|CSD G6]] have been split into their own criteria: [[Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#R4._File_namespace_redirects_with_names_that_match_Wikimedia_Commons_pages|R4]] for redirects in the "File:" namespace with the same name as a file or redirect at Wikimedia Commons ([[Wikipedia_talk:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion/Archive_72#Redirects_in_the_File:_namespace_G6_→_R4|Discussion]]), and [[Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#G14._Unnecessary_disambiguation_pages|G14]] for disambiguation pages which disambiguate  zero pages, or have "(disambiguation)" in the title but disambiguate a single page ([[Wikipedia_talk:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion/Archive_72#Proposal:_Move_deletion_of_disambiguation_pages_from_G6_→_G14|Discussion]]).
*{{tl|db-blankdraft}} was merged into [[WP:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#G13._Abandoned_Drafts_and_Articles_for_creation_submissions|G13]] ([[Wikipedia_talk:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion/Archive_72#Proposal_to_merge_db-blankdraft_into_G13|Discussion]])
*[[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#Notability_of_theatrical_plays|A discussion]] recently closed with no consensus on whether to create a subject-specific notability guideline for [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Theatre/Draft_guideline_on_Notability_(plays)|theatrical plays]].
*There is an [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Notability_(scientific_subjects)|ongoing discussion]] on a proposal to create subject-specific notability guidelines for [[Wikipedia:Notability_(chemicals)|chemicals]] and [[Wikipedia:Notability (taxons)|organism taxa]].

;Reminders
*NPR is not a binary ''keep'' / ''delete'' process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The  [[WP:ATD-R|'''deletion policy''']] and its associated [[WP:BLAR|guideline]] clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See [[Template:R_from_school|a classic example]] of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the [[Template:R template index|R template index]]. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD  because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them. 

;NPP Tools Report
* [[User:Bradv/Scripts/Superlinks|Superlinks]] – allows you to check an article's history, logs, talk page, NPP flowchart (on unpatrolled pages) and more without navigating away from the article itself.
* [[User:FR30799386/copyvio-check|copyvio-check]] – automatically checks the copyvio percentage of new pages in the background and displays this info with a link to the report in the 'info' panel of the Page curation toolbar.
*The [[:File:NPP_flowchart.svg|NPP flowchart]] now has clickable hyperlinks.

== WikiCup 2019 May newsletter ==

The second round of the 2019 WikiCup has now finished. Contestants needed to scored 32 points to advance into round 3. Our top four scorers in round 2 all scored over 400 points and were:

*{{flagicon|Scotland}} [[User:Casliber|Cas Liber]] (1210), our winner in 2016, with two featured articles and three DYKs. He also made good use of the bonus points available, more than doubling his score by choosing appropriate articles to work on.
*{{flagicon|Wales}} [[User:Kosack|Kosack]] (750), last year's runner up, with an FA, a GA, two FLs, and five DYKs.
*[[File:Pirate_Flag_of_Henry_Every.svg|25px]] {{u|Adam Cuerden}} (480), a WikiCup veteran, with 16 featured pictures, mostly restorations.
*{{flagicon|Prussia}} [[User:Zwerg Nase|Zwerg Nase]] (461), a seasoned competitor, with a FA, a GA and an ITN item.
Other notable performances were put in by {{flagicon|Chicago}} [[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] with six GAs, {{flagicon|USA}} [[User:Ceranthor|Ceranthor]], {{flagicon|England}} [[User:Lee Vilenski|Lee Vilenski]], and {{flagicon|Saskatchewan}} [[User:Canada_Hky|Canada Hky]], each with seven GARs, and {{flagicon|Denmark}} [[User:MPJ-DK|MPJ-DK]] with a seven item GT.

So far contestants have achieved nine featured articles between them and a splendid 80 good articles. Commendably, 227 GARs have been completed during the course of the 2019 WikiCup, so the backlog of articles awaiting GA review has been reduced as a result of contestants' activities. The judges are pleased with the thorough GARs that are being performed, and have hardly had to reject any. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed]] (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:Godot13|Godot13]] ([[User talk:Godot13|talk]]), [[User:Sturmvogel 66|Sturmvogel 66]] ([[User talk:Sturmvogel 66|talk]]), [[User:Vanamonde93|Vanamonde]] ([[User talk:Vanamonde93|talk]]) and [[User:Cwmhiraeth|Cwmhiraeth]] ([[User talk:Cwmhiraeth|talk]]) [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 17:46, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

== New Page Review newsletter July-August 2019 ==

<div style="border:2px solid #90C0FF; background:#F0F0FF; width:99%; padding:4px">

[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|120px]]

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

;WMF at work on NPP Improvements
More new features are being added to the feed, including the important red alert for previously deleted pages. This will only work if it is selected in your filters.  Best is to 'select all'. Do take a moment to  check out all the new features if you have not already done so. If anything is not working as it should, please let us know at [[WT:NPR|NPR]]. There is now also a live queue of [[WP:AfC|AfC]] submissions in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to review AfCs, but bear in mind that NPP is an official process and policy and is more important.
;QUALITY of REVIEWING
Articles are still not always being checked thoroughly enough. If you are not sure what to do, leave the article for a more experienced reviewer. Please [[quis custodiet ipsos custodes|be on the alert]] for any incongruities in patrolling and help your colleagues where possible; report patrollers and autopatrolled article creators who are ostensibly undeclared paid editors.
The displayed ORES alerts offer a greater 'at-a-glance' overview, but the new challenges in detecting unwanted new content and sub-standard reviewing do not necessarily make patrolling any easier, nevertheless the work may have a renewed interest factor of a different kind. A vibrant community of reviewers is always ready to help at [[WT:NPR|NPR]].
;Backlog
The backlog is still far too high at between 7,000 and 8,000. Of around 700 user rights holders, 80% of the reviewing is being done by just TWO users. In the light of more and more subtle advertising and undeclared paid editing, New Page Reviewing is becoming more critical than ever.  
;Move to draft
NPR is [[triage]], it is not a clean up clinic. This  move feature is not limited to bios so  you may have to slightly re-edit the text in the template before you save the move. Anything that is not fit for mainspace but which ''might'' have some promise can be draftified - particularly very poor English and machine and other low quality translations.
;Notifying users
Remember to use the message feature if you are just tagging an article for maintenance rather than deletion. Otherwise articles are likely to remain perma-tagged. Many creators are [[WP:SPA|SPA]] and have no intention of returning to Wikipedia. Use the feature too for  leaving a friendly note note for  the author of a first article you found well made or interesting. Many have told us they find such comments particularly welcoming and encouraging.
;PERM
Admins are now taking advantage of the new time-limited user rights feature. If you have recently been accorded NPR, do check your user rights to see if this affects you. Depending on your user account preferences, you may receive automated notifications of your rights changes. Requests for permissions are not mini-RfAs. Helpful comments are welcome ''if <u>absolutely</u> necessary'', but the bot does a lot of the work and the final decision is reserved for admins who do thorough research anyway. 
;Other news
School and academic holidays will begin soon in various places around the Western world. Be on the lookout for the usual increase in hoax, attack, and other junk pages.

Our next newsletter might be announcing details of a possible election for co-ordinators of NPR. If you think you have what it takes to micro manage NPR, take a look at [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/Coordination#New_Page_Review_Coordinators|New Page Review Coordinators]] - it's  a job that requires a lot of time and dedication.

== WikiCup 2019 July newsletter ==

The third round of the 2019 WikiCup has now come to an end. The 16 users who made it to the fourth round needed to score at least 68 points, which is substantially lower than last year's 227 points. Our top scorers in round 3 were:

*{{flagicon|Norfolk Island}} [[User:Casliber|Cas Liber]], our winner in 2016, with 500 points derived mainly from a featured article and two GAs on natural history topics
*{{flagicon|South Carolina}} [[User:Adam Cuerden|Adam Cuerden]], with 480 points, a tally built on 16 featured pictures, the result of meticulous restoration work
*{{Flagicon|Cascadia}} [[User:SounderBruce|SounderBruce]], a finalist in the last two years, with 306 points from a variety of submissions, mostly related to sport or the State of Washington
*{{Flagicon|United States}} [[User:Usernameunique|Usernameunique]], with 305 points derived from a featured article and two GAs on archaeology and related topics

Contestants managed 4 (5) featured articles, 4 featured lists, 18 featured pictures, 29 good articles, 50 DYK entries, 9 ITN entries, and 39 good article reviews.  As we enter the fourth round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them, and it is imperative to claim them in the correct round; one FA claim had to be rejected because it was incorrectly submitted (claimed in Round 3 when it qualified for Round 2), so be warned! When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed]] (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:Godot13|Godot13]] ([[User talk:Godot13|talk]]), [[User:Sturmvogel 66|Sturmvogel 66]] ([[User talk:Sturmvogel 66|talk]]), [[User:Vanamonde93|Vanamonde]] ([[User talk:Vanamonde93|talk]]) and  [[User:Cwmhiraeth|Cwmhiraeth]] ([[User talk:Cwmhiraeth|talk]]).

Greetings!

Here is the 7th issue of the ''Bots Newsletter'', a lot happened since [[Wikipedia:Bots/News/201808|last year's newsletter]]! You can subscribe/unsubscribe from future newsletters by adding/removing your name from [[Wikipedia:Bots/Spam|this list]].

Highlights for this newsletter include:

;ARBCOM
* Nothing of note happened. Just like we like it.

;BAG
* Several ([[Wikipedia_talk:Bot_Approvals_Group/Archive_9#Inactive BAG retirement (Mr.Z-man)|1]] + [[Wikipedia_talk:Bot_Approvals_Group/Archive_9#Bulk_inactivity_removals|12]] = 13) users have been retired/resigned from the BAG due to inactivity, per [[Wikipedia:Bot Approvals Group#Activity requirements|our new activity requirements]] ([[Wikipedia talk:Bot policy/Archive 28#Should BAG members have an activity requirement?|discussion]]).
<blockquote>
BAG members are expected to be active on Wikipedia to have their finger on the pulse of the community. After two years without any bot-related activity (such as posting on [[:Category:Wikipedia bots|bot-related pages]], posting on a bot's talk page, or operating a bot), BAG members will be retired from BAG following a one-week notice. Retired members can re-apply for BAG membership as normal if they wish to rejoin the BAG.</blockquote>
*Two BAG members retired
** {{User|Madman}} [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=891278258 retired].
** {{User|BU Rob13}} [[WP:VANISHED|vanished]] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ABot_Approvals_Group&type=revision&diff=905528110&oldid=891388521 retired].
* Three new BAG members have been voted in, welcome to the BAG!
** {{User|Primefac}} joined on 2018-12-12 ([[Wikipedia:Bot Approvals Group/nominations/Primefac|RfBAG]]). Primefac operates {{User|PrimeBOT}} which does a [[User:PrimeBOT#Tasks|plethora of tasks]].
** {{User|TheSandDoctor}} joined on 2019-01-21 ([[Wikipedia:Bot Approvals Group/nominations/TheSandDoctor|RfBAG]]). TheSandDoctor operates several bots including {{User|DeprecatedFixerBot}}.
** {{User|Enterprisey}} joined on 2019-08-07 ([[Wikipedia:Bot Approvals Group/nominations/Enterprisey|RfBAG]]). Enterprisey operates {{User|EnterpriseyBot}}, which does a [[User:EnterpriseyBot#Tasks|plethora of tasks]], {{User|RemindMeBot}} which posts reminders, and codes several scripts.

We thank former members for their service and wish Madman a happy retirement. We note that Madman and BU Rob13 were not inactive and could resume their BAG positions if they so wished, should their retirements happens to be temporary.

;BOTDICT
Two new entries feature in the [[WP:BOTDICT|bots dictionary]]
*[[WP:BOTDICT#Editor-hostile wikitext|''Editor-hostile wikitext'']] – describes wikitext structuring that is editor hostile, even if it renders correctly
*[[WP:BOTDICT#Threshold of usefulness|''Spectrum of usefulness'']] – describes how tasks are deemed useful or not

;BOTPOL
*[[WP:BAGREQ|Activity requirements]]: BAG members now have an activity requirement. The requirements are very light, one only needs to be involved in a bot-related area at some point within the last two years. For purpose of meeting these requirements, discussing a bot-related matter anywhere on Wikipedia counts, as does operating a bot ([[Wikipedia talk:Bot policy/Archive 28#Should BAG members have an activity requirement?|RFC]]).
*[[WP:COPYVIOFLAG|Copyvio flag]]: Bot accounts may be additionally marked by a [[WP:CRAT|bureaucrat]] upon BAG request as being in the [[Special:ListUsers/copyviobot|"copyviobot" user group]] on Wikipedia. This flag allows using the API to add metadata to edits for use in the New pages feed ([[Wikipedia:Bots/Noticeboard/Archive 12#New bot-like access group|discussion]]). There is currently [[Special:ListUsers/copyviobot|1]] bot using this functionality.
*[[WP:MASSCREATION|Mass creation]]: The restriction on mass-creation (semi-automated or automated) was extended from ''articles'', to ''all [[Wikipedia:Reader#Project versus content|content-pages]]''. There are subtleties, but ''content'' here broadly means whatever a reader could land on when browsing the mainspace in normal circumstances (e.g. Mainspace, Books, most Categories, Portals, ...). There is also a warning that [[WP:MEATBOT]] still applies in other areas (e.g. Redirects, Wikipedia namespace, Help, maintenance categories, ...) not explicitely covered by [[WP:MASSCREATION]].

;BOTREQs and BRFAs
As of writing, we have...
* 20 active [[WP:BOTREQ|BOTREQs]], please help if you can!
* 14 open BRFAs and 1 BRFA in need of BAG attention (see [[Wikipedia:BAG/Status|live status]]).
* In 2018, 96 bot task were [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Approved/Archive 14|approved]]. An [[WP:AWB|AWB]] search shows approximately 29 were withdrawn/expired, and 6 were denied.
* Since the start of 2019, 97 bot task were [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Approved|approved]]. Logs show 15 were [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval#Expired/withdrawn requests|withdrawn/expired]], and 15 were [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval#Denied requests|denied]].
* 10 inactive bots have been deflagged (see [[Wikipedia:Bots/Noticeboard/Archive 13#Inactive bots - May 2019|discussion]]). 5 other bots have been deflagged per operator requests or similar (see [[Special:Permalink/896996617#Updates|discussion]]).

;New things
*All bot-related discussion pages now have a [[Wikipedia:Bots/ArchiveBox|centralized and searchable archive box]] (see [[Wikipedia:Bots/Noticeboard/Archive_13#New_archive_box|discussion]]). Discussions are searchable per noticeboard, or globally.
*{{tl|Bot}} now supports {{para|status|expired}} (see [[Template talk:Bot#status=expired|discussion]]). This led to the deletion of [[:Category:Indefinitely blocked Wikipedia bots]] as useless (see [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2019 July 26#Category:Indefinitely blocked Wikipedia bots|discussion]]).
*[[WP:BOTREQ]] now mentions [[WP:SCRIPTREQ]] and [[WP:AWBTASKS]] as alternatives to bot requests.
*The [[WP:CREATEBOT|bot creation guide]] now mentions [[Help:Creating a bot#Bot Flag|bot flags]], and two new languages [[Help:Creating a bot#Awk|Awk]] and [[Help:Creating a bot#MATLAB|MATLAB]]. Other minor tweaks have been made.
*[[User:AAlertBot|AAlertBot]] has received major code updates. In particular, [[WP:AALERTS]] will now report [[WP:SPLIT|splits]], [[WP:MERGE|mergers]], and [[WP:AFC|AFC submissions]].
*[[User:Citation bot|Citation bot]] has received several updates ([[User talk:Citation bot/Archive 10]]/[[User talk:Citation bot/Archive 11|11]]/[[User talk:Citation bot/Archive 12|12]]/[[User talk:Citation bot/Archive 13|13]]/[[User talk:Citation bot/Archive 14|14]]/[[User talk:Citation bot/Archive 15|15]]/[[User talk:Citation bot/Archive 16|16]]/[[User talk:Citation bot/Archive 17|17]]). In particular, the bot stopped the automated removal of {{para|publisher}} from {{tl|cite journal}}, and stopped the automated addition of [[CiteSeerX]] links, and now uses [[meta:Help:OAuth|OAuth]] to authenticate those who make requests of the bot.

;Other discussions
These are some of the discussions that happened / are still happening since the last ''Bots Newsletter''. Many are stale, but some are still active.

== WikiCup 2019 September newsletter ==

The fourth round of the competition has finished in a flurry of last minute activity, with 454 points being required to qualify for the final round. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants with over 400 points being eliminated, and all but two of the finalists having achieved an FA during the round. [[User:Casliber|Casliber]], our 2016 winner, was the highest point-scorer, followed by [[User:Enwebb|Enwebb]] and [[User:Lee Vilenski|Lee Vilenski]], who are both new to the competition. In fourth place was [[User:SounderBruce|SounderBruce]], a finalist last year. But all those points are swept away as we start afresh for the final round.

Round 4 saw the achievement of 11 featured articles. In addition, [[User:Adam Cuerden|Adam Cuerden]] scored with 18 FPs, Lee Vilenski led the GA score with 8 GAs while [[User:Kosack |Kosack ]] performed 15 GA reviews. There were around 40 DYKs, 40 GARs and 31 GAs overall during round 4. Even though contestants performed more GARs than they achieved GAs, there was still some frustration at the length of time taken to get articles reviewed.

As we start round 5, we say goodbye to the eight competitors who didn't quite make it; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia, and we hope you will join us again next year. Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them (some people have fallen foul of this rule and the points have been removed).

If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, a featured process, or anything else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed]] (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:Godot13|Godot13]], [[User:Sturmvogel 66|Sturmvogel 66]], [[User:Vanamonde93|Vanamonde]] and [[User:Cwmhiraeth|Cwmhiraeth]] [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 18:44, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

== New Page Review newsletter September-October 2019 ==

<div style="border:2px solid #90C0FF; background:#F0F0FF; width:99%; padding:4px">
[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|120px]]
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

;Backlog
Instead of reaching a magic '''300''' as it once did last year, the backlog approaching 6,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google. 

;Coordinator
A proposal is taking place [[Wikipedia_talk:New_pages_patrol/Reviewers#Coordinator|'''here''']] to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR.

;This month's refresher course  
''[[Wikipedia:Why I Hate Speedy Deleters|Why I Hate Speedy Deleters]]'', a 2008 essay by long since retired {{U|Ballonman}}, is still as valid today. Those of us who  patrol large numbers of new pages can be forgiven for  making  the occasional  mistake while  others can learn from  their 'beginner' errors. Worth  reading.

;Deletion tags 
Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon (you will need to have 'Nominated for deletion' enabled for this in your filters) may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders using Twinkle. They require your further verification.

;Paid editing
Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator <u>if appropriate</u>, and submit the issue to [[WP:COIN]] if necessary. WMF policy requires paid editors to connect to their adverts. 

;Subject-specific notability guidelines' (SNG). Alternatives to deletion
*Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves once more with notability guidelines for [[WP:ORG|organisations and companies]]. 
*''Blank-and-Redirect'' is a solution anchored in policy. Please consider this alternative before PRODing or CSD. Note however, that users will often revert or usurp redirects to re-create deleted articles. Do regularly patrol the redirects in the feed.

;Not English
*A common issue: Pages not in English or poor, unattributed machine translations should not reside in main space even if they are stubs. Please ensure you are familiar with [[WP:NPPNE]]. Check in Google for the language and content, and if they do have potential, tag as required, then move to draft. Modify the text of the template as appropriate before sending it.
  
;Tools
Regular reviewers will  appreciate the most recent  enhancements to  the New Pages Feed and  features in the Curation  tool, and there are still more to  come. Due to  the wealth  of information  now displayed by  ORES, reviewers are strongly  encouraged to  use the system now rather than Twinkle; it  will  also  correctly  populate the logs.

Stub sorting, by SD0001: A new script is available for adding/removing stub tags. See [[User:SD0001/StubSorter.js]], It features a simple HotCat-style dynamic search field. Many of the reviewers who are using it are finding it an improvement upon other available tools. 

Assessment: The script at [[User:Evad37/rater]] makes the addition of Wikiproject templates extremely easy. New page creators rarely do this. Reviewers are not obliged to make these edits but they only take a few seconds. They can use the Curation message system to let the creator know what they have done.

{{noping|DannyS712 bot III}} is now patrolling certain categories of uncontroversial redirects. Curious? Check out its [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=patrol&user=DannyS712+bot+III&page=&wpdate=&tagfilter=&subtype= patrol log].

== AfroCine: Join the Months of African Cinema this October! ==

{{Ivmbox|[[File:AfroCine - bare logo.png|211px|frameless|right]]

Greetings!

After a successful [[Wikipedia:WikiProject AfroCine/Months of African Cinema/2018|first iteration of the “Months of African Cinema” last year]], we are happy to announce that it will be happening again this year, starting from October 1! In the 2018 edition of the contest, about 600 Wikipedia articles were created in at least 8 languages. There were also contributions to Wikidata and Wikimedia commons, which brought the total number of wikimedia pages created during the contest to over 1,000.

[[Wikipedia:WikiProject AfroCine|The AfroCine Project]] welcomes you to October, the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject AfroCine/Months of African Cinema|first out of the two months which have been dedicated to creating and improving content]] that centre around the cinema of Africa, the Caribbean, and the diaspora. Join us in this global edit-a-thon, by helping to create or expand articles which are connected to this scope. Also remember to [[Wikipedia:WikiProject AfroCine/Months of African Cinema#Participants|list your name under the participants section]].

On English Wikipedia, we would be recognizing participants in the following manner:

*'''''Overall winner''''' (1st, 2nd, 3rd places)
*'''''Diversity winner'''''
*'''''Gender-gap fillers'''''

For further information about the contest, the recognition categories and how to participate, please visit the contest page [[Wikipedia:WikiProject AfroCine/Months of African Cinema|here]]. For further inquiries, please leave comments on the contest talkpage or on the main project talkpage. See you around :).--[[User:Jamie Tubers|Jamie Tubers]] ([[User talk:Jamie Tubers#top|talk]]) 00:50, 30 September 2019 (UTC)}}

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of [[Banknotes of the United States dollar|United States banknotes]], yet only a fraction of these are represented on [[c:Main Page|Wikimedia Commons]] in the form of 2D scans.  Additionally, [[Colonial history of the United States|Colonial America]], the [[Confederate States of America|Confederate States]], the [[Republic of Texas]], multiple [[List of states and territories of the United States|states and territories]], communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, [[WP:WikiProject Numismatics|WikiProject Numismatics]] will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019|2019 US Banknote Contest]].  The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on [[m:Complete list of Wikimedia projects|all Wikimedia projects]].  Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019#Awards|awards]].  Whether you want to claim the [[Template:GoldenWiki|Gold Wiki]] or you just want to have fun, all are invited to [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019#How to participate|participate]].

== New Page Review newsletter November 2019 ==

[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|100px]]
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon.
;Getting the queue to 0 
There are now {{NUMBERINGROUP:patroller}} holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action.<br> 
Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If ''each'' reviewer soon does '''only 2 reviews a day''' over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by ''every'' reviewer doing '''only 1 review every 2 days''' - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class!  Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.<br>
Want to join? Consider adding the [[Template:User NPP Pledge|'''NPP Pledge userbox''']].<br>
Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Coordination#Awards|'''really cool awards''']].
; Coordinator
Admin {{U|Barkeep49}} has been officially invested as [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/Coordination#New_Page_Review_Coordinators|NPP/NPR coordinator]] by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers.
;This month's refresher course
Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: [[WP:LTA/OM|This official Wikipedia article]] will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol#Conflict_of_Interest_(COI),_paid_editing|The Hallmarks]] to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources.
;Tools
*It is now possible to select new pages by date range. This was requested by reviewers who want to patrol from the middle of the list.
*It is now also possible for accredited reviewers to put any article back into the New Pages Feed for re-review. The link is under 'Tools' in the side bar.
;Reviewer Feedback
Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/School#New Reviewer Mentorship|New Reviewer mentorship]] will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/School#Peer review cohort|peer review cohort]] for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch ''November 13''.
;Second set of eyes
*Not only are ''New Page Reviewers'' the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work, especially while some routine tagging for deletion can still be carried out by non NPR holders and inexperienced users. Read about it at the  [[WP:NPP#Monitoring the system|'''Monitoring the system''']] section in the tutorial. If you come across such editors doing ''good'' work, don't hesitate to encourage them to apply for NPR.
*Do be sure to have [[WT:NPR|'''our talk page ''']] on your watchlist. There are often items that require reviewers' special attention, such as to watch out for pages by known socks or disruptive editors, technical issues and new developments, and of course to provide advice for other reviewers.
;Arbitration Committee
The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights.
;Community Wish list
There is to be no [[:meta:wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2020|wish list]] for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.

== Please comment on [[Talk:Libertarianism#rfc_6665663|Talk:Libertarianism]] ==

Please comment on the discussion regarding the use of the term "right libertarian" to describe libertarians that do not oppose free markets, and that do not make a clear distinction between laissez-faire capitalism and advocacy of free markets. This discussion can be found on the talk page for the [[Libertarianism]] article. The term is primarily used in a derogatory way and by self-described "left-libertarians". The individuals described in that article, and in the poorly-titled [[right-libertarianism]] article do not typically identify with the political right - or the political for that matter.

== New Page Review newsletter December 2019 ==

;Reviewer of the Year
[[File:New page reviewer of the year cup.svg|right|200px]]
This year's Reviewer of the Year is {{noping|Rosguill}}. Having gotten the reviewer PERM in August 2018, they have been a regular reviewer of articles and redirects, been an active participant in the NPP community, and has been the driving force for the emerging NPP Source Guide that will help reviewers better evaluate sourcing and notability in many countries for which it has historically been difficult.

Special commendation again goes to {{noping|Onel5969}} who ends the year as one of our most prolific reviewers for the second consecutive year. Thanks also to {{noping| Boleyn}} and {{noping|JTtheOG}} who have been in the top 5 for the last two years as well.

Several newer editors have done a lot of work with [[User:CAPTAIN MEDUSA|CAPTAIN MEDUSA]] and [[User:DannyS712|DannyS712]] (who has also written bots which have patrolled thousands of redirects) being new reviewers since this time last year. 

Thanks to them and to everyone reading this who has participated in New Page Patrol this year.

;Redirect autopatrol
A recent [[Wikipedia_talk:New_pages_patrol/Reviewers/Redirect_autopatrol#RfC_on_autopatrolling_redirects|Request for Comment]] on creating a new redirect autopatrol pseduo-permission was [[WP:SNOW|closed early]]. New Page Reviewers are now able to [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect whitelist|nominate editors]] who have an established track record creating uncontroversial redirects. At the individual discretion of any administrator or after 24 hours and a consensus of at least 3 New Page Reviewers an editor may be added to a [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/Redirect_whitelist#Editors_whose_redirects_are_whitelisted|list of users]] whose redirects will be patrolled automatically by {{noping|DannyS712 bot III}}.

;Source Guide Discussion
Set to launch early in the new year is our first [[WP:NPPSG|New Page Patrol Source Guide]] discussion. These discussions are designed to solicit input on sources in places and topic areas that might otherwise be harder for reviewers to evaluate. The hope is that this will allow us to improve the accuracy of our patrols for articles using these sources (and/or give us places to perform a [[WP:BEFORE]] prior to nominating for deletion). Please watch the [[WT:NPR|New Page Patrol talk page]] for more information.

;This month's refresher course
While New Page Reviewers are an experienced set of editors, we all benefit from an occasional review. This month consider refreshing yourself on [[Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features)]]. Also consider how we can take the time for quality in this area. For instance, sources to verify human settlements, which are presumed notable, can often be found in seconds. This lets us avoid the (ugly) 'Needs more refs' tag.

== Welcome to the 2020 WikiCup! ==

Happy New Year, Happy New Decade and Happy New WikiCup! The competition begins today and all article creators, expanders and improvers are welcome to take part. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found '''[[Wikipedia:WikiCup|here]]'''. If you have not yet signed up, you can '''[[Wikipedia:WikiCup/2020 signups|add your name here]]''' and the judges will set up your submissions page. We are relaxing the rule that only content on which you have completed significant work during 2020 will count; now to be eligible for points in the competition, you must have completed significant work on the content at some time! Any questions on the rules or on anything else connected to the Cup should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup|WikiCup talk page]]. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will move on to round 2. Good luck! The judges for the WikiCup are {{User4|Sturmvogel 66}}, {{User4|Godot13}}, {{User4|Vanamonde93}} and [[User:Cwmhiraeth|Cwmhiraeth]] ([[User talk:Cwmhiraeth|talk]]) 11:43, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
