Thank you SO much for your helpful insights! I pulled a range of newspaper and online articles to add to this, and added more to the podcast section as that is a key piece of her recent recognition in the curling world. FenelonCurls (talk) 20:23, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Good job clearing the List of perfumes up. Just in case you'll see my edits: I use Fragrantica site. Unfortunately, it has a window called "great deals at EBay". Since EBay is, basically, an online flea market, I have no problem with using Fragrantica as a source of data on perfumes.

It's not like I'm promoting stuff, it's just because I don't really have the time to sift through .PDFs and can't use actually promotional materials from glam mags. 81.89.66.133 (talk) 06:34, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your message, I appreciate your reaching out. Fragrantica’s database gives no indication of a fact-checking process though, so we can’t count on it as a

reliable source. Given the amount of promotion that list attracts, we need to be vigilant about high-quality sources. Thanks for your help on it. Innisfree987 (talk) 09:07, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply

To add, I would actually support restricting that list to only perfumes that meet Wikipedia’s standard for

indiscriminate list. At minimum, to justify mention, we need to see some notice in a reliable secondary source; merely existing isn’t enough. Innisfree987 (talk) 09:13, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply

Thank you. Indeed, it's hard to tell if a perfume is notable or not... unless it has own article? 81.89.66.133 (talk) 11:30, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Some have been reviewed in books like Perfumes: The Guide; often those will also have other reliable reviews as well. (Sorry for the delayed reply on this!) Innisfree987 (talk) 06:19, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Innisfree987,

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:

• You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
• Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
• To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.
