Brian Thompson (businessman) Pistol
editFor your edit with the tag " →Death: pistols are not bolt action." please refer to the Welrod Pistol. BarakHussan (talk) 22:07, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- My comment was imprecise, but I think the general edit stands. It's very unlikely that the pistol was "bolt-action" and none of the sources talking about the shooting use that phrase as far as I have seen. Maximilian775 (talk) 22:09, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- none of the sources implicitly states it was semiautomatic either, although video within the articles shows the user operating it in a bolt action manner BarakHussan (talk) 22:13, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
- Manually cycling a slide is not equivalent to a bolt-action pistol.
- If you are amenable to it, let's leave the descriptor for the pistol as-is (IE, just "silenced 9mm") until more information comes out.

Autopatrolled granted
edit
Hi Maximilian775, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.
Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.
Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Sohom (talk) 22:19, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

Concerning your reversion of my addition
editGreetings,
I have skimmed through the section with which you have presented as substantiation for your reversion; however, from my superficial understanding, I see not what has compelled you to do so. Seemingly the foremost concern is copyright, a criterion that certainly is fulfilled here, in light of the subject's passing preceding the yearly threshold; if not, then it really doesn't occur to me what precisely is the unequivocally applicable principle whence your rather expeditious judgment is derived. Please elucidate if you can!
Thanks, Solo4701 (talk) 01:51, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- Per WP:IMG, " The purpose of an image is to increase readers' understanding of the article's subject matter". It is unclear to me how a picture of Pope Leo's grandmother increases understanding of the subject matter. Maximilian775 (talk) Maximilian775 (talk) 02:03, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- Perhaps it can serve to visually clarify what precisely is signified by “mixed-race,” a rather vague classification which is susceptible to misconstruction. It may appear to be a superficial concern, but given the context of this era, it’s of pertinence… just look at how these particular aspects of his ancestry have as of late been disseminated by virtue of news coverage. Solo4701 (talk) 02:41, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- I struggle to see how a black-and-white picture (wherein one side of the subject's face is completely washed out by light and the other side is completely in shadow) provides any visual clarification as to the appearance of "mixed-race". Maximilian775 (talk) 02:46, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- It’s preferable to the complete absence thereof, no? Theoretically, if the reader were to solely examine the article in its prevailing state—sans external research—any interpretation of his maternal forebears’ appearance would be a derivative of their imagination. Conversely, with my proposed addition, there is a substantive basis provided at the minimum.
- I would opt for rather including his wife’s portrait, which is considerably more clear, but unfortunately it is possible that it is from the thirties or fourties, rendering it incongruous with copyright laws. Solo4701 (talk) 02:56, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- You state that the reason for including the picture is to demonstrate what a mixed-race person looks like. I point out that it would do a very poor job of this, as there is nothing distinctively mixed-race about the features of the person in that picture due to its poor quality. I would also point to WP:NOTEVERYTHING and WP:NOTGALLERY. While it certainly has a place on Wikimedia Commons, I do not think that it is suitable to include on Leo XIV's page. Maximilian775 (talk) 03:08, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- Would the clearer photograph of his wife then perhaps be appropriate, provided that it conforms to copyright? Solo4701 (talk) 03:34, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- I'm not sure, as I'm not aware of where this photographh could be found. I would also point you to my first comment regarding WP:IMG, that "The purpose of an image is to increase readers' understanding of the article's subject matter". The article is about Pope Leo, not his grandparents. Maximilian775 (talk) 03:38, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
- Here it is, alongside his.
- Yes, it’s not concerning his grandparents; however, they directly pertain to his racial identity, which is seemingly deemed a rather crucial element of his general identity by various reputable news sources. Such was the observation that initiated this proposal. Solo4701 (talk) 03:45, 12 May 2025 (UTC)

New Page Patrol Newsletter - May 2026
editHello Maximilian775,

Backlog update
At the time of this message, there are 15,282 articles and 32,951 redirects awaiting review.
After the January–February drive the article backlog was reduced to 15,179 articles and the redirect backlog to 19,053 respectively. Great job! However, both queues are growing rapidly and any additional reviews are highly appreciated.
2024 and 2025 NPP Awards

Hey man im josh and MPGuy2824 won the Redirect Ninja Master Award for 2024 and 2025 respectively, for reviewing the most redirects.
Overall in 2024, one Platinum, two Gold, eight Silver, 12 Bronze and 45 Iron Barnstars were awarded. Additionally, 66 reviewers got the NPP barnstar for doing more than 100 reviews through the year. In 2025, one Platinum, ten Silver, 13 Bronze and 38 Iron Barnstars were awarded. Additionally, 38 reviewers got the NPP barnstar for doing more than 100 reviews through the year.
BoyTheKingCanDance, Rosiestep, SunDawn, and Vanderwaalforces were inducted into the NPP Hall of Fame for having two separate years of 2,000+ article reviews.
January–February backlog drive
The experimental two-month long backlog drive concluded with 183 reviewers patrolling over 27,761 articles and 35,309 redirects, earning over 36,836 points. Congratulations to JTtheOG, who achieved first place with 6,484.6 points in this drive.
May backlog drive
An article-only backlog drive is currently underway. We are hoping to make a big dent in the backlog. You can read more about it or join at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/May 2026.
PageTriage
An attempt was made to get the New Pages Feed to sort by date marked as reviewed instead of date created. However we had to revert it due to bugs. We may try again in the future. You can subscribe to the Phabricator ticket if you're interested in following along.
Reminders:
- You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Page Patrol Discord.
- Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
