Feminine hygiene

That was a content dispute, not vandalism; I had originally misinterpreted the edits as vandalism, which led to a misunderstanding. It's been sorted out now, and I doubt page protection will be necessary. Colonel Wilhelm Klink (^Complaints|_Mistakes) 00:19, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Understood and apologize for getting in the way. Justin15w (talk) 00:21, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a big deal, but try not to make the same mistake I made: don't revert too quickly. Anyway, thanks for understanding. Colonel Wilhelm Klink (^Complaints|_Mistakes) 00:22, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback granted

Hi Justin15w. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr (talk) 20:38, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Justin. Thank you for your attention to my edits on Davor Dzalto. While I was clearly trolling it was for a purpose. Please review Dzalto's page and clean up how shamelessly self-promotional it is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.216.192.82 (talk) 23:20, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@76.216.192.82: This has already been addressed in Talk:Davor Džalto. Justin15w (talk) 05:52, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your opinion, but I am only making the article more accurate.

Thank you for your time. LmL (talk) 01:41, 1 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Concerning your message: Hello, I'm Justin15w. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Emperor Yang of Sui have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Justin15w (talk) 01:23, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

I don't know what your defintiion of "constructive" is, but I think your undoing was unconstructive. I changed "khan" into "khagan". Do you have any problem with that? A waste of my time, that is what it is. Rather ridiculous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HuMo (talk • contribs) 16:02, 9 November 2016 (UTC) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:HuMo — Preceding unsigned comment added by HuMo (talk • contribs) 16:04, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@HuMo: Hi there. The reason I reverted your edit is because it turned a wikilink into a red link that doesn't lead anywhere, degrading the article quality. If you feel your edit was constructive, feel free to add it again, ensuring the wikilinks remain active, with a good summary as to why it was changed. It's nothing personal. Thanks. Justin15w (talk) 19:03, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment.

Dire wolf

Hello Justin, thankyou for your frustrating defence of the Dire wolf page recently; the matter is "now before the courts" [[1]]. Keep up the good work. Regards,  William Harris |talk  20:56, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@William Harris: Thank you kindly, William. I figured that account was a sock but noticed he stopped editing for a bit. Justin15w (talk) 21:00, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is only a matter of time before the entity starts again, let us hope we can nip that in the bud with a blanket ban on all three accounts. Regards,  William Harris |talk  21:03, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

PS: I notice that you have the option of using both Twinkle and Stiki as a tool - which do you prefer and are there times to use one in preference to the other?  William Harris |talk  21:05, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@William Harris: I like them both for different uses. I use Twinkle for Recent Changes patrolling, or when I'm using my phone, or when I'm patrolling at work on breaks - generally just to fight gross vandalism. STiki uses a java program and combines the warnings, reversions, and potential reporting to AIV into one click. Really makes it easy and fast, but often I need to go into my web browser to gain the context of the edits in question on the wiki page itself. It's better to really dive into edit reverting and take a closer look beyond the typical vandalism. Hope this helps! Take care, Justin15w (talk) 21:16, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks, enjoy! Regards,  William Harris |talk  21:18, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Justin, the outcome was a 48 hour ban with a warning - the system works and is lenient in the first instance. This at least adds some "history" to that Talk page. Regards,  William Harris |talk  19:42, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bobby Bandiera

I know for a fact that Bobby Bandiera's birthdate is Oct 19, 1953. If you go on one his Facebook pages "Bobby Bandiera Rocks" , you will see that the people who know him well are in agreement with me.

Thanks Jules323 (talk) 20:51, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Jules323: I googled his information and it appeared to me that the existing birth date was correct, but as always I could be completely wrong. "Bobby Bandiera Rocks" is a closed group so I am unable to check it. I'll stop reverting you but you may want to seek consensus from other editors at the talk page: Talk:Bobby Bandiera. Nothing personal and good luck! Justin15w (talk) 21:06, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Justin. I appreciate your quick revert of the latest IP at Myron Ebell! I've now configured Pending changes to keep that kind of driveby vandalism off. Bishonen | talk 16:46, 1 December 2016 (UTC).[reply]

@Bishonen: Thank you! I don't take kindly to BLP violations. Keep up the good work and see you around. Justin15w (talk) 17:58, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Zephyr Headwear

First off, thank you for your feedback! I'm new to Wikipedia and appreciate you reviewing the article I drafted. I'll make the change that you suggested to make the article not sound promotional. I'll work on adding more information so it's not just a stub.

Also, it would be great if you edited the article to some extent (if possible) so I'm not the only one who has worked on it. I don't want it to be deleted since it's notable and deserves an article. Thanks again. Pwgormley (talk) 21:06, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Pwgormley: You're welcome! I will take a look this weekend. If the article is ever in danger of deletion, let me know. We can move it to draft space if needed. Justin15w (talk) 21:44, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Just to let you know, I indicated that I'm familiar with WP:COI and WP:COIADVICE on the Zephyr Headwear talk page. If you could remove the COI tag in the article, that'd be great. I won't be making any significant changes to the page. Thanks again! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pwgormley (talk • contribs) 18:28, 21 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Pwgormley::  Done If you find more material or sources you'd like to add later, feel free to send me a note and I'll review. I'll probably try to hunt down a logo to add to the page as well. Thanks and take care, Justin15w (talk) 18:44, 21 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good, I'll let you know if I find more sources. Here is a link to the current logo. Pwgormley (talk) 00:10, 22 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New page reviewer granted

Hello Justin15w. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at page reviewer talk.

• URGENT: Please consider helping get the huge backlog (around 15,000 pages) down to a manageable number of pages as soon as possible.
• Be nice to new users - they are often not aware of doing anything wrong.
• You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not.
• Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer.
• Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 20:13, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Review - newsletter No.2

Hello Justin15w,

A HUGE backlog

We now have 824 New Page Reviewers!
Most of us requested the user right at PERM, expressing a wish to be able to do something about the huge backlog, but the chart on the right does not demonstrate any changes to the pre-user-right levels of October.

Hitting 17,000 soon

The backlog is still steadily growing at a rate of 150 a day or 4,650 a month. Only 20 reviews a day by each reviewer over the next few days would bring the backlog down to a managable level and the daily input can then be processed by each reviewer doing only 2 or 3 reviews a day - that's about 5 minutes work!
It didn't work in time to relax for the Xmas/New Year holidays. Let's see if we can achieve our goal before Easter, otherwise by Thanksgiving it will be closer to 70,000.

Second set of eyes

Remember that we are the only guardians of quality of new articles, we alone have to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged by non-Reviewer patrollers and that new authors are not being bitten.

Abuse

This is even more important and extra vigilance is required considering Orangemoody, and

1. this very recent case of paid advertising by a Reviewer resulting in a community ban.
2. this case in January of paid advertising by a Reviewer, also resulting in a community ban.
3. This Reviewer is indefinitely blocked for sockpuppetry.

Coordinator election

Kudpung is stepping down after 6 years as unofficial coordinator of New Page Patrolling/Reviewing. There is enough work for two people and two coords are now required. Details are at NPR Coordinators; nominate someone or nominate yourself. Date for the actual suffrage will be published later.

While On The Subject Of Dogs

Apropos dogs and reducing error in the world, I was recently corrected in the nicest possible way. I was out running, and I saw a man walkng two large, handsome, French poodles in the park.

I've found talking to people about their dogs an efficient way of making friends since I was about four or five, so I told him, "They're very handsome. I'm told the poodles are the most intelligent of all the dogs. I think it's a pity they been bred into idiocy by rich, idle women who want an animal they can carry around in their handbags. And they've done that to the fine Russian hunting poodle in a hundred years flat."

He didn't even bother with "Well, not quite." He put me right with, "Yes, Cicero made exactly the same complaint in the Senate..."

Hello Justin15w,

Voting for coordinators has now begun HERE and will continue through/to 23:59 UTC Monday 06 March. Please be sure to vote. Any registered, confirmed editor can vote. Nominations are now closed.

Still a MASSIVE backlog

We now have 824 New Page Reviewers but despite numerous appeals for help, the backlog has NOT been significantly reduced.
If you asked for the New Page Reviewer right, please consider investing a bit of time - every little helps preventing spam and trash entering the mainspace and Google when the 'NO_INDEX' tags expire.

New Page Review - Newsletter No.4

Hello Justin15w,

Since rolling out the right in November, just 6 months ago, we now have 824 reviewers, but the backlog is still mysteriously growing fast. If every reviewer did just 55 reviews, the 22,000 backlog would be gone, in a flash, schwoop, just like that!

But do remember: Rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. Do not over-tag. Make use of the message feature to let the creator know about your maintenance tags. See the tutorial again HERE. Get help HERE.

Stay up to date with recent new page developments and have your say, read THIS PAGE.

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Justin15w, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

• The new page backlog is currently at 18,511 pages. We have worked hard to decrease from over 22,000, but more hard work is needed! Please consider reviewing even just a few pages a a day.
• Some editors are committing to work specifically on patrolling new pages on 15 July. If you have not reviewed new pages in a while, this might be a good time to be involved. Please remember that quality of patrolling is more important than quantity, that the speedy deletion criteria should be followed strictly, and that ovetagging for minor issues should be avoided.

Technology update:

• Several requests have been put into Phabractor to increase usability of the New Pages Feed and the Page Curation toolbar. For more details or to suggest improvements go to Wikipedia:Page Curation/Suggested improvements

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Justin15w, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

• The new page backlog is currently at 16,991 pages. We have worked hard to decrease from over 22,000, but more hard work is needed! Please consider reviewing even just a few pages a a day.

Technology update:

• Rentier has created a NPP browser in WMF Labs that allows you to search new unreviewed pages using keywords and categories.

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Justin15w, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

• The new page backlog is currently at 14304 pages. We have worked hard to decrease from over 22,000, but more hard work is needed! Please consider reviewing even just a few pages a day.
• Currently there are 532 pages in the backlog that were created by non-autoconfirmed users before WP:ACTRIAL. The NPP project is undertaking a drive to clear these pages from the backlog before they hit the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing a few today!

Technology update:

• The Wikimedia Foundation is currently working on creating a new filter for page curation that will allow new page patrollers to filter by extended confirmed status. For more information see: T175225

General project update:

• On 14 September 2017 the English Wikipedia began the autoconfirmed article creation trial. For a six month period, creation of articles in the mainspace of the English Wikipedia will be restricted to users with autoconfirmed status. New users who attempt article creation will now be redirected to a newly designed landing page.
• Before clicking on a reference or external link while reviewing a page, please be careful that the site looks trustworthy. If you have a question about the safety of clicking on a link, it is better not to click on it.

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Justin15w, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

• The new page backlog is currently at 12713 pages. Please consider reviewing even just a few pages each day! If everyone helps out, it will really put a dent in the backlog.
• Currently the backlog stretches back to March and some pages in the backlog have passed the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing some of them!

Outreach and Invitations:

• If you know other editors with a good understanding of Wikipedia policy, invite them to join NPP by dropping the invitation template on their talk page with: {{subst:NPR invite}}. Adding more qualified reviewers will help with keeping the backlog manageable.

New Year New Page Review Drive

• A backlog drive is planned for the start of the year, beginning on January 1st and running until the end of the month. Unique prizes will be given in tiers for both the total number of reviews made, as well as the longest 'streak' maintained.
• Note: quality reviewing is extremely important, please do not sacrifice quality for quantity.

General project update:

• ACTRIAL has resulted in a significant increase in the quality of new submissions, with noticeably fewer CSD, PROD, and BLPPROD candidates in the new page feed. However, the majority of the backlog still dates back to before ACTRIAL started, so consider reviewing articles from the middle or back of the backlog.
• The NPP Browser can help you quickly find articles with topics that you prefer to review from within the backlog.
• To keep up with the latest conversation on New Pages Patrol or to ask questions, you can go to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers and add it to your watchlist.

New Years new page backlog drive

Hello Justin15w, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Announcing the NPP New Year Backlog Drive!

We have done amazing work so far in December to reduce the New Pages Feed backlog by over 3000 articles! Now is the time to capitalise on our momentum and help eliminate the backlog!

The backlog drive will begin on January 1^st and run until January 29^th. Prize tiers and other info can be found HERE.

Awards will be given in tiers in two categories:

• The total number of reviews completed for the month.
• The minimum weekly total maintained for all four weeks of the backlog drive.

NOTE: It is extremely important that we focus on quality reviewing. Despite our goal of reducing the backlog as much as possible, please do not rush while reviewing.

General project update:

New Page Review Newsletter No.10

Hello Justin15w, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!

ACTRIAL:

• ACTRIAL's six month experiment restricting new page creation to (auto)confirmed users ended on 14 March. As expected, a greatly increased number of unsuitable articles and candidates for deletion are showing up in the feed again, and the backlog has since increased already by ~30%. Please consider reviewing a few extra articles each day.

Paid editing

• Now that ACTRIAL is inoperative pending discussion, please be sure to look for tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary.

Subject-specific notability guidelines

• The box at the right contains each of the subject-specific notability guidelines, please review any that are relevant BEFORE nominating an article for deletion.
• Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves with the new version of the notability guidelines for organisations and companies. A further discussion is currently taking place at: Can a subject specific guideline invalidate the General Notability Guideline?

Nominate competent users for Autopatrolled

• While patrolling articles, if you find an editor that is particularly competent at creating quality new articles, and that user has created more than 25 articles (rather than stubs), consider nominating them for the 'Autopatrolled' user right HERE.

News

• The next issue Wikipedia's newspaper The Signpost has now been published after a long delay. There are some articles in it, including ACTRIAL wrap-up that will be of special interest to New Page Reviewers. Don't hesitate to contribute to the comments sections. The Signpost is one of the best ways to stay up date with news and new developments - please consider subscribing to it. All editors of Wikipedia and associated projects are welcome to submit articles on any topic for consideration by the The Signpost's editorial team for the next issue.

Please participate to the talk pages consultation

Hello

Our team at the Wikimedia Foundation is working on a project to improve the ease-of-use and productivity of wiki talk pages. As a Teahouse host, I can imagine you’ve run into challenges explaining talk pages to first-time participants.

We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis – to ask questions, to resolve differences, to organize projects and to make decisions. Communication is essential for the depth and quality of our content, and the health of our communities. We're currently leading a global consultation on how to improve talk pages, and we're looking for people that can report on their experiences using (or helping other people to use) wiki talk pages. We'd like to invite you to participate in the consultation, and invite new users to join too.

We thank you in advance for your participation and your help.

Teahouse Hosts

Hello. Over at the Teahouse we're having a bit of a 'spring clean' by removing old entries from the list of Hosts that new users see. As you don't appear to have been very active there for some time, your 'host profile' has been removed from the list. But please don't let that put you off contributing again in the future - either by signing back up as a Host to assist on a regular basis, or just dropping in whenever you fancy helping out.

Thank you for all your past help and support for new users at the Teahouse. Nick Moyes (talk) 22:23, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
