Administrators' newsletter – June 2023

News and updates for administrators from the past month (May 2023).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, editors indefinitely site-banned by community consensus will now have all rights, including sysop, removed.
  • As a part of the Wikimedia Foundation's IP Masking project, a new policy has been created that governs the access to temporary account IP addresses. An associated FAQ has been created and individual communities can increase the requirements to view temporary account IP addresses.

Technical news

  • Bot operators and tool maintainers should schedule time in the coming months to test and update their tools for the effects of IP masking. IP masking will not be deployed to any content wiki until at least October 2023 and is unlikely to be deployed to the English Wikipedia until some time in 2024.

Arbitration

  • The arbitration case World War II and the history of Jews in Poland has been closed. The topic area of Polish history during World War II (1933-1945) and the history of Jews in Poland is subject to a "reliable source consensus-required" contentious topic restriction.

New Pages Patrol newsletter June 2023

Hello Ceyockey,

New Page Review queue April to June 2023

Backlog

Redirect drive: In response to an unusually high redirect backlog, we held a redirect backlog drive in May. The drive completed with 23851 reviews done in total, bringing the redirect backlog to 0 (momentarily). Congratulations to Hey man im josh who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by Meena and Greyzxq with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See this page for more details. The redirect queue is steadily rising again and is steadily approaching 4,000. Please continue to help out, even if it's only for a few or even one review a day.

Redirect autopatrol: All administrators without autopatrol have now been added to the redirect autopatrol list. If you see any users who consistently create significant amounts of good quality redirects, consider requesting redirect autopatrol for them here.

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team, consisting of Sam, Jason and Susana, and also some patches from Jon, has been hard at work updating PageTriage. They are focusing their efforts on modernising the extension's code rather than on bug fixes or new features, though some user-facing work will be prioritised. This will help make sure that this extension is not deprecated, and is easier to work on in the future. In the next month or so, we will have an opt-in beta test where new page patrollers can help test the rewrite of Special:NewPagesFeed, to help find bugs. We will post more details at WT:NPPR when we are ready for beta testers.

Articles for Creation (AFC): All new page reviewers are now automatically approved for Articles for Creation draft reviewing (you do not need to apply at WT:AFCP like was required previously). To install the AFC helper script, visit Special:Preferences, visit the Gadgets tab, tick "Yet Another AFC Helper Script", then click "Save". To find drafts to review, visit Special:NewPagesFeed, and at the top left, tick "Articles for Creation". To review a draft, visit a submitted draft, click on the "More" menu, then click "Review (AFCH)". You can also comment on and submit drafts that are unsubmitted using the script.

You can review the AFC workflow at WP:AFCR. It is up to you if you also want to mark your AFC accepts as NPP reviewed (this is allowed but optional, depends if you would like a second set of eyes on your accept). Don't forget that draftspace is optional, so moves of drafts to mainspace (even if they are not ready) should not be reverted, except possibly if there is conflict of interest.

Pro tip: Did you know that visual artists such as painters have their own SNG? The most common part of this "creative professionals" criteria that applies to artists is WP:ARTIST 4b (solo exhibition, not group exhibition, at a major museum) or 4d (being represented within the permanent collections of two museums).

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Argentine companies established in 1971

A tag has been placed on Category:Argentine companies established in 1971 indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 17:01, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Queue

@Ceyockey: Regarding your recent revert, it's worth mentioning that I'm pretty sure Special:WhatLinksHere/The_Queue is currently broken as none of the hundreds of pages currently listed on there link to or even mention the word "queue" at all. I've just found one article that had such a link, but I don't believe there are any other such articles. Chessrat (talk, contributions) 00:52, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

An encyclopedia describes things, a dictionary defines terms ...

Ceyockey, I couldn't help noticing that you are adding numerous categories like "Category:Evolutionary biology terminology" to articles.

Now, in the case of a tricky term like "Adaptation", you are arguably correct, the term has multiple meanings, so the article does not describe (or the term denote) a single biological entity, however much we feel that we understand the process, but several, and its topic must be considered at least in part as describing the term and its extension within biological discourse.

On the other hand, with something well-defined like "amino acid" or "adenine", we are not talking about tricky overlapping or conflicting meanings. Many, I hope most, terms in biology have a definite meaning, and a typical biology article is about the thing that the title names, not about the term itself. We are in fact explicitly enjoined by policy to write about things, not terms: WP:NOTDICT.

So, categories that end in "... terminology" do not fit well with subjects like these; indeed I would say that calling Adenine an article about "biology terminology", for instance, is a definite error.

One other thing: I don't really see why this sort of categorisation is needed, as if A is a biochemical and B is a taxon (group of types of organism), then both A and B will fit into a hierarchy which will be topped off by Category:Biology eventually.

I do not wish to spend the next days undoing thousands of newly-added biology categories, so it would be helpful if you could demonstrate consensus for the current categorisation drive (I hope the fact that these articles begin with A means it hasn't gone too far yet!) before proceeding. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:07, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Chiswick Chap: I'm trying to make SOME consistency among glossaries, terminology sets and categories of terminology and I appreciate input, but there is essentially no sense or reason to how things are included in these three piles at the moment. I'm not stupid nor editing in a didactic manner. I will likely re-evaluate in the near future but I'm trying out something to feel if it fits. It doesn't fit quite right at the moment and I do think that "aligning" glossary of biology with biology terminology will likely be bad in the long run. I'm going to step away for a bit and come back and see how I feel about the shape and will likely recompose the inclusion criteria in the terminology category to take into account your comment and some additional thoughts on the matter. Regards. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 19:14, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thank you. I certainly don't think categorisation or categorisers are stupid; I do think that categories about words are unlike categories about things. Whether categories about words are sometimes valid (as, it could be argued, with slippery customers like "adaptation") or always valid (again, it could be said that every article is named by a term, but that line of argument would have very far-reaching implications) is a subtle matter that warrants careful thought. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:19, 20 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Chiswick Chap: I've reverted a couple of additions I made as I agree they didn't belong (things like "amino acid"). I've substantially re-written the inclusion criteria statements. I've also added a full accounting of the revisions to the category talk page so that the rationale for my removals from and additions to the category are transparent. I'm thinking of proceeding along these lines. Thanks for your thoughts. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 03:26, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Many thanks. On the inclusion criteria, which are obviously welcome, I'd say explicitly that taxa, right up to the top-level (animal, archaea, bacteria, eukaryote) should be excluded, as we ought either to include all N million of them, or none (every taxon is an encyclopedic thing; the name of every taxon is a WP:NOTDICT dictionary term). The current list of 3 criteria is plainly difficult to apply, and could sweep in very many articles, including (uncomfortably) every member of "Biological concepts" and "Glossary of biology". I'd want to restrict membership to articles which are specifically about biology terminology, which discuss terms like adaptation precisely because they are of terminological (not purely biological) interest. To put it a different way, I believe that categories for terms should contain only meta-level articles, ones that discuss how concepts (in object-level categories like "Biological concepts") should be applied; it should not contain any object-level articles. So for example, "acclimatization", "aerobic organism", and "autotroph" are biological concepts, and the terms for them are not of special interest (they apply simply and directly to single, sharply-defined concepts). All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:23, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, TFAs will be automatically semi-protected the day before it is on the main page and through the day after.
  • A discussion at WP:VPP about revision deletion and oversight for dead names found that [s]ysops can choose to use revdel if, in their view, it's the right tool for this situation, and they need not default to oversight. But oversight could well be right where there's a particularly high risk to the person. Use your judgment.

Technical news

Arbitration

  • The SmallCat dispute case has closed. As part of the final decision, editors participating in XfD have been reminded to be careful about forming local consensus which may or may not reflect the broader community consensus. Regular closers of XfD forums were also encouraged to note when broader community discussion, or changes to policies and guidelines, would be helpful.

New pages patrol newsletter

Hello Ceyockey,

New Page Review article queue, March to September 2023

Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!

October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here.

PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon.

Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.

Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024

Hello Ceyockey,

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.

Reminders:

I need help with my article

Hi @Ceyockey

I found your site and as a newbie to Wikipedia editing it's super impressive what you've already done here!

For my first article, I thought it would be easiest to take an existing article in my native language (German), translate it, and add additional information. I wrote about Nanoscribe which is part of the BICO group. In case you did not hear about them yet, they make 3D laser microprinters. e I made some mistakes at the beginning and didn't realize some problems with citations. But I think I have that pretty well fixed now. I submitted it for review and I've been waiting for several weeks for someone to review it. Could you help me with this? As a newbie, if there are still problems with the article, I would be happy to get your tips :)
