Owain Davies' Talk Page
Welcome to my user talk page! You're probably here because I've done something you don't like. Sorry about that. I can assure you it was in good faith! Let me know what it was, and let's see if we can't reach an agreement! Go on, I'm very hard to offend, but don't take that as a challenge...
I try and keep this page quite clear so i can see new edits easily, but I'm an open sort of guy, and I don't delete comments I don't like, so if you'd like to, you can see my previous user discussion in my discussion archive

Thanks for the feedback

Hi Owain, Thanks for the feedback. Your point is well taken. I thought about creating a seperate entry for the Queensland Ambulance but will involve some of my serving colleagues. I'll start putting some work together to an entry on emergency services in Australia.

I'm getting the hang of this. Got adding links down now. Still working on links to references though. Phillip – 17:19 AEST 17.06.2007

Hi Owain, would you mind watchlisting Calgary Stampede for a few weeks (until it's over for this year, at least?) We have some animal rights POV pushing there and a really good editor (Resolute) was sort of trying to hold down the fort alone, figured some extra hands on board would be helpful. The individual with the POV was also adding some stuff to the other rodeo articles, but so far not at an unmanageable level, though if you also wanted to watchlist calf roping, I'd sure be OK with that. Thanks.

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024

Hello Owain.davies,

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.
