New page reviewer

User:James-the-Charizard

Back in September, I requested, and was given the NPR rights for 3 months, set to expire in early December, now I am here to request a permanent extension of the right. I've reviewed and tagged pages appropriately, and want to continue helping newer users. James-the-Charizard (talk to me!) (contribs) 13:30, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

    • @James-the-Charizard: thanks for your continued interest in New Page Reviewing. I have some questions and concerns based on your NPP so far. I see a lot of red links - 11/29 reviewed articles by my count. Most of these have been speedily deleted even. One that was speedily deleted, recreated, and then deleted at AfD with your participation was Zionfelix (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zionfelix). Do you recall how you went from thinking it should be reviewed to !voting delete at AfD? Normally I would ignore this as it came early on but it is part of a possible trend. More recently Shreedeep rayamajhi was properly moved by you to Shreedeep Rayamajhi but was then deleted there as a WP:G4. Do you have thoughts or other context that would be helpful in evaluating these? Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:06, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • Barkeep49 In the case of the Zionfelix article, I was in the process of doing a bit of research to check wether sources got missed or for copyright violations, but I ran out of time (real life hits hard) but I did the tags first, and forgot to press unreview (as I was going to let others look at the article too). Once I looked into things further, I found a lack of reliable sources along with promotional language (which ended up being removed by another user) which made my vote delete on that AfD. As for the other one, I moved the article (as all BLP articles have uppercase names) and saw potential in the article, however I didn't know it was eligible for G4 at the time (likely the previously deleted tag was inadvertently removed when I moved the pages) which is why I just left it be after I was done with the small minor fixes. The thing is, on several of the red link articles, I would've probably tagged for speedy deletion, but I held back just to be safe (technically going against the policy of being bold, but oh well.) and figured let other reviewers handle those articles. Since then I have grown more and learned and am not afraid to hold back. James-the-Charizard (talk to me!) (contribs) 19:46, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Done for three more months. There's enough promise here to warrant continued work, but James please take some time to improve your knowledge and ability to accurately tag for speedy deletion. There was a broad range of reasons why the articles were speedily deleted, everything from G4 (which this script can help with) to copyright, to Spam. If you find you need help with any of this please don't hesitate to drop me a line or ask at WT:NPR. Best,Barkeep49 (talk) 21:55, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I feel that NPP is an area I can help Wikipedia in. I already partake in it, mainly at the moment in tagging new articles that require it, and when needed nominating them for deletion. I'm already active in recent changes patrolling and have rollback rights. CoconutOctopus talk 13:20, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You do not have any logged CSD log and few afd record. Both CSD and AFD experience are critical for gaining the right. Have you considered joining Wp:AFC team. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 00:35, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I'm unsure what you mean, as I've certainly nominated plenty of CSD articles (and AFD)? I wasn't aware they were(n't) logged? CoconutOctopus talk 14:31, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Done for three months. Please make sure you read WP:NPP and ask any questions you might have. You do indeed have experience with CSD which can't be seen because the articles have been deleted. What CAPTAIN MEDUSA is suggesting is that you turn on logging in your Twinkle Preferences. Another best practice suggestion would be to setup archiving by a bot, or with 1 click archiving, of your talk page rather than just deleting stuff. Anyhow, good luck patrolling and if you have questions please don't hesitate to ask them. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:29, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I am currently a rollbacker and pending changes reviewer. I would like the new page reviewer right because it would help me in cutting down the backlog directly rather than just making peripheral improvements. I already patrol the recently created new pages and help wikify them. My activities include adding categories, tagging pages for problems, making partial copyedits, and in rare cases entering articles into the deletion process.

I would like to help the Project by doing some WP:NPPing. Alexbrn (talk) 17:23, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I enjoy doing cleanup on Wikipedia and reviewing new content so I believe I could make positive contributions as a new page reviewer. Loksmythe (talk) 17:11, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
