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.

Draftification

Please note that articles cannot be moved to draftspace a second time after somebody contests it by moving it back, as you did at ÖBB Long Schlieren. Any such articles should be nominated for deletion if you really think they don't belong in mainspace. Thank you, Passengerpigeon (talk) 16:53, 17 May 2026 (UTC)

Reviewing Godwin Murunga's Article

Thank you for reviewing Brian Kagoro's article. I have little knowledge of article review and I hope this request is not out of line. Would you be kind to review Godwin Murunga article, too? I have noticed it hasn't been looked at by any reviewers since I created it.

Thank you. SyzygyRebel (talk) 12:42, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

Speedy deletion contested: Vicente de la Guardia

Hello Mccapra. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Vicente de la Guardia, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Competing in the Olympics is enough to pass A7. Thank you. BangJan1999 23:48, 16 July 2026 (UTC)

Articles for Creation backlog drive

Hello Mccapra:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in August!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than a month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 August 2026 through 31 August 2026.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 5000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:37, 19 July 2026 (UTC)
