Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply.
I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.
I'm pretty sure anyone navigating from {{R. Stevie Moore}} will be looking for his father, not the food executive. Besides, any analysis will be completely skewed now by the very existence of the RM. --woodensuperman15:34, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You will possibly delete this without answering, but was wondering if you've actually created any navboxes. You dislike so much about them that other editors like, but you put a lot of attention on them. Do you have any favorites that you've created, or keep watch on because they are your favorites? Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:04, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
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!

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!
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.
Thank you for the clean and full distribution of the various American founding documents navboxes. Nice work. I'm glad you did it, as I don't understand how you were able to distribute the navboxes to the signatory and some of the other pages without editing the page itself (the mysteries of coding above my pay grade).

Well, creating redirects from the dedicated signatories navboxes helped. I'd have liked to have been a bit more thorough with checking everything, but hopefully I've caught most of them. I know we've had disagreements about this, but I hope you're happy with the result. It may need further cleanup, as I've tried to retain what was on the original large navbox, but for some there were already dedicated navboxes, so some links may have slipped through the net. --woodensuperman10:46, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, quite happy. The full collapsed template was valuable in its connections to the topic (America's founding) but the result exceeded my expectations of distribution concerns. Will double-check some of the pages, thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 10:56, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Woodensuperman. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of K. P. Sharma Oli, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: target page history shows this move would be controversial. Thank you.
