I am so impressed to see this in the news, right after the day with the 2021 World Snooker Championship for TFA and 1977 World Snooker Championship for DYK! - I have the quirky today, which is rare ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:00, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Thanks Gerda Arendt! can't take any credit for the DYK though. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 15:07, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Question from GlendaGDWN (20:17, 14 May 2022)

Dear Mentor, I recently updated the "Nina Menkes" page with valid information, and all my edits were revised. Can you help with this? Im so frustrated. I wanted to do more edits but now Im just discouraged.. thank you -G.G. --GlendaGDWN (talk) 20:17, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi GlendaGDWN - I'd love to help, but talk:Nina Menkes is a better location for this. Justlettersandnumbers reverted your changes on the page mostly due to the sources you were using not being reliable. Something being valid doesn't mean its suitable for us to include. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:56, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

GlendaGDWN, please don't be discouraged! Unfortunately that page has a very long history of inappropriate editing by people apparently connected to, or paid by, the subject. May I gently suggest that you choose a less contentious page to improve? Or that you mention on the talk-page the errors or omissions that you see in it? Thanks! (oh, and hi, Lee V!). Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 21:02, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi! Hope you are well! Apologies for the ping, but easier than explaining the individual sources. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 09:50, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

DYK for Slosh (cue sport)

On 21 May 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Slosh (cue sport), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the game of slosh shares the name with a English batter and sausage dish? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Slosh (cue sport). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Slosh (cue sport)), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

The Wall Street Journal RFC

Hi,

I know that you are going to close this, but I added another example of canvassing to the discussion. I know I should have done it sooner. Apologies if this causes more disruption. I have no intention to continue that discussion on the talk page. Politrukki (talk) 10:34, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi Politrukki - thanks for letting me know. That particular RFC had a real issue with it being spread across many different pages (such as the ones you outlined, previous discussions, and the AN thread). Whilst the above isn't suitable (I'd argue it's also forum shopping), I don't think it broke the validity of the RfC. I hope the closure is treated well, I took quite a while reading through all of the discussions. This sort of thing is best dealt with at the time, rather than to sway the closure of the topic. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 18:57, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

• Hi, Lee. Did you miss that the version with the disputed phrase is the longstanding text? Normally no consensus means restore the status quo, so the correct close would "no consensus to remove" the disputed phrase.—S Marshall T/C 21:09, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

S Marshall Apologies if it wasn't clear! No consensus means no consensus. As you say, in practice this means to retain the information that was present before the RFC. However, the RFC was written in such a way that it wasn't asking if the information should be removed, simply if it was suitable for the lede (probably a poorly worded RFC). There isn't a consensus to remove, as you say, but there also isn't a consensus to keep. The close, practically means to retain the status quo, but doesn't condemn or approve the text. I don't personally like the phrase "no consensus to remove" as it suggests there is a consensus to keep. I hope I've explained that well enough, but happy to look at the exact wording if it's deemed confusing! Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:43, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

New Page Patrol newsletter May 2022

New Page Review queue March 2022

Hello Lee Vilenski,

At the time of the last newsletter (No.26, September 2021), the backlog was 'only' just over 6,000 articles. In the past six months, the backlog has reached nearly 16,000, a staggering level not seen in several years. A very small number of users had been doing the vast majority of the reviews. Due to "burn-out", we have recently lost most of this effort. Furthermore, several reviewers have been stripped of the user right for abuse of privilege and the articles they patrolled were put back in the queue.

Several discussions on the state of the process have taken place on the talk page, but there has been no action to make any changes. The project also lacks coordination since the "position" is vacant.

In the last 30 days, only 100 reviewers have made more than 8 patrols and only 50 have averaged one review a day. There are currently 714 New Page Reviewers, but about a third have not had any activity in the past month. All 1041 administrators have this permission, but only about a dozen significantly contribute to NPP.

This means we have an active pool of about 450 to address the backlog. We cannot rely on a few to do most of the work as that inevitably leads to burnout. A fairly experienced reviewer can usually do a review in a few minutes. If every active reviewer would patrol just one article per day, the backlog would very quickly disappear.

If you have noticed a user with a good understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, do suggest they help the effort by placing {{subst:NPR invite}} on their talk page.

If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process and its software.

To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.
