Hi there, thank you for all the good work you're doing!

Proposed deletion of John Blizek

The article John Blizek has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Lacks SIGCOV in independent sources. Checked ProQuest, Google Books, Google News.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. —LastJabberwocky (Rrarr) 08:55, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

Industrial Banner

Hi Slgrandson

A couple of your recent assessments (Rocklin Manufacturing, Paweł Rozenfeld), added the WP:INDUSTRIAL project banner to articles that have to do with manufacturing. The Industrial project focuses on Industrial music as opposed to industrial manufacturing, so I've removed the banner from those articles. As you do a lot of assessments (thanks!) I thought it might be worthwhile to bring this distinction to your attention. Cheers! Brigandeur (talk) 04:34, 25 October 2025 (UTC)

I see that you moved my article. Just fyi, as noted on the DAB, I deliberately added the extra disambiguator to Vanilla (2025 Mexican film) as there is another film of the same name and year - see here - which I am intending to create. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 07:38, 29 October 2025 (UTC)

Italian football seasons

Hello @Slgrandson - idle curiosity spike: I often AFC Italian football clubs' seasons when they start getting to 2 months old under WP:NSEASONS and invariably you follow up with NPP and rating. Would it make your job any easier if I spec'd up the Football project to Italian seasons and / or put a Low rating. If you get an inner joy from doing this then clearly the answer is no, but it seems you do 2 parts of NPP, and I could probably do the Talk part fairly easily.

Applying FA to articles

Hi @Slgrandson. It appears you rated Jarosław Obremski as WP:FA, despite it not ever receiving a consensus for this. FA is an extremely rigorous process that requires the community to review an article using the toughest criteria. The highest an article can be rated without being reviewed is B-Class.

New pages patrol January–February 2026 Backlog drive

January–February 2026 Backlog Drive | New pages patrol
New Pages Patrol is hosting a one-time, two-month experimental backlog drive aimed at reducing the backlog. This will be a combo drive: both articles and redirects will earn points. The drive will run from 1 January to 28 February 2026. The drive is divided into two phases. Participants may take part in either phase or across both phases, depending on availability. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled during the drive. Two-month drive-exclusive barnstars will be awarded to eligible participants. Each article review earns 1 point, while each redirect review earns 0.2 points. Streak awards will be granted based on consistently meeting weekly point thresholds. Barnstars will also be awarded for re-reviewing articles previously reviewed by other patrollers during the drive. Interested in participating? Sign up here.

Your review of The Sixteenth Sheep

Hey! Firstly, thanks for reviewing it so quickly, I had just placed a request for it to be assessed barely a few minutes before you did that. But I noticed that you gave it a C, and I wanted to ask this:

What do you think is missing in the article before it can be a B-Class? The only parts uncited are parts that don't require citations (the lede/lead, track listing and personnel, latter two do not require citations according to Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Album article style advice). Are there any sections that you think are missing? I'm just curious. Once again, thanks for reviewing the article so quickly! S.G. (talk) 01:27, 28 December 2025 (UTC)

New Page Patrol Newsletter - May 2026

Hello Slgrandson,

New Page Review queue November 2025 - May 2026

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

JTtheOG was selected as the NPP reviewer of the year for both 2024 and 2025, for reviewing the most articles amongst all reviewers.

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.

Articles for Creation backlog drive

Hello Slgrandson:

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) 00:38, 19 July 2026 (UTC)
