New Page Reviewer newsletter February 2020Hello Sagotreespirit,
The first NPP source guide discussion is now underway. It covers a wide range of sources in Ghana with the goal of providing more guidance to reviewers about sources they might see when reviewing pages. Hopefully, new page reviewers will join others interested in reliable sources and those with expertise in these sources to make the discussion a success.
New to NPP? Looking to try something a little different? Consider patrolling some redirects. Redirects are relatively easy to review, can be found easily through the New Pages Feed. You can find more information about how to patrol redirects at WP:RPATROL.
Geographic regions, areas and places generally do not need general notability guideline type sourcing. When evaluating whether an article meets this notability guideline please also consider whether it might actually be a form of WP:SPAM for a development project (e.g. PR for a large luxury residential development) and not actually covered by the guideline.

I have collected some amount of information for the article draft of Sikkim Tea that you suggested some time ago. I already left a message few days earlier but you didn't reply. And then the the entire page was moved to the archive so I didn't know if you got my message. So here I am, Typing this message again. So,if you are free, I might want some suggestions.

I understand and fully support your edit to make Wikipedia's content more neutral. Thank you for that! Given that I had been looking at other articles about lawyers to understand how to write a new article about a newsworthy lawyer, I had seen that other articles do sometimes mention that an attorney has appeared in National Trial Lawyers ranking. Is this a problem in most cases, or was there something specific that damaged the article that I tried my hand at creating? - Buckaboob Bonsai (talk) 03:58, 2 March 2020 (UTC) My eye is especially caught with this section as being very probably no-good. But what about the numerous others? - Buckaboob Bonsai (talk) 04:00, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

Draft: InfoBeansCould you please take a moment to review the Draft: InfoBeans and suggest the specific changes required to make it notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. Everything in the article is sourced from news articles, official reports of the company. If there are particular statements you object to I would appreciate you letting me know and I can rephrase them. I am not getting a clear idea about how this article is not meeting the guideline as I can see the similar articles in the mainspace and are active. Reviewed the below articles and many more with the similar flow of content and third party references used: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistent_Systems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HCL_Technologies I'm willing to work with you to remove or rephrase the article to meet the notability guideline of Wikipedia. Please help me in editing the content. Thank you!1994vd (talk) 05:41, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
TayapI am the author of the recent grammar of Tayap and I have been working on the language for thirty years. I updated the page to represent the recently published grammar. The material in the article that I have removed is incorrect and it was for that reason I edited it. Please restore my edits (including my deletion of the comment "Taiap has been classified as a Torricelli language by Usher (2020)" because that is based on no knowledge of the language) and remove your re-instated edits. This is the first time I have edited anything on Wikipedia and I didn't realize that one ought to go through the procedure you alerted me to.Kwemsawir (talk) 19:37, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
Thank you. The problem with Foley's article is that his 2018 summary is based on my previous work -- some of which he misinterpreted (there are not two third person plural pronouns, for example. I have no idea where he got that from) -- and ALL of which has been superseded by my current grammar. Since Foley's description of Tayap is based solely on my earlier work, which has now been amended, I see no point in retaining his (outdated and incorrect) descriptions. This is the sort of thing that can only confuse an interested reader. It also implies that Foley's description of the language is based on his own data and analysis, which it is not -- as he himself explains in the article cited. The same with Usher. As far as I can tell, there is no basis for his classification -- certainly none is given in the reference. Once again, if the point of the article is to inform, rather than just collate a bunch of random (and incorrect) information about the language offered by people who have no real knowledge of it, then please amend the article back to what I posted a few weeks ago.Kwemsawir (talk) 16:26, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
Thank you. I tried to rewrite some of the info in the article (such as the table of pronouns) but as you undoubtedly can tell by now I am not terribly computer savvy and the codes, etc. are beyond me unfortunately. Given that, I thought it best to simply delete the incorrect information rather than leave it there. This is the first time I have attempted to do anything on Wikipedia and I apologize if I have offended anybody or appeared to be a vandal. I plead ignorance. I was only trying to correct an entry that I indeed am the expert on. I don't have a basic vocabulary list of Tayap, but the recently published grammar includes a full dictionary of the language, with translations in both Tok Pisin and English.Kwemsawir (talk) 08:46, 23 March 2020 (UTC) I just checked and I see that the entry is unchanged. Can I ask that you cede this page to me? I value the fact that you took the time and put in the effort to create the page. But it feels silly that I have to negotiate with you to revise the entry about a language that I am the only non-Gapun person who knows anything about. If you want to discuss this further please contact me through my university email, since obviously you know who I am, even though I don't know who you are. If you agree that I know more about this little language than you or anyone else, please re-instate the edits I made before you restored them. Alternatively, please correspond with me outide this platform to help me understand how I can add to the entry. Thank you! Kwemsawir (talk) 21:53, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

I went through and added many good citations and plan on adding even more. The Article was about a prominent IT company in Baltimore and there are many similar and lesser known companies like theirs that have wiki pages. I do not work for DP Solutions but I am working to help get some of these well known regional organizations a wiki page they deserve since they service companies nationwide.

As I was linking up the river articles you created, I came across a discrepancy here. Evans had Ngkontar and Ngkolmpu as distinct languages, but Glottolog defines Ngkontar as Ngkolmpu, and Usher doesn't list Ngkontar as a language. I removed it and left a bullet point, but if you have Evans handy, I thought you might want to check if Glotto made a mistake. — kwami (talk) 11:21, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
Thanks. I checked Evans, looks like it's just a line-wrapping issue. — kwami (talk) 17:34, 29 March 2020 (UTC) NG riversI removed "May River" as a synonym of Arai River, as it's in the wrong location to be the source of the name of the Left May languages. Please correct if I got that wrong. Also, now I don't know if those were named for the left bank of the May River, or if it's the Left May River because it's the "May" river on the left bank of the Sepik, as opposed perhaps to another May River on the right bank. — kwami (talk) 02:29, 30 March 2020 (UTC) Found some more Cebuano links for Wikipedia:WikiProject Papua New Guinea/Geography stubs, using the Malay words for 'river' etc. Some are on WP-sv too, and one w a decent map on WP-nl. There are probably more -- I think I've found 3 under spelling variants, but if we consider colonial vs post names, I'm sure there's others. So far I've only created Soari River myself. I'm sure I'll get around to others eventually, but it'll be slow going. — kwami (talk) 22:56, 30 March 2020 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for March 30An automated process has detected that you recently added links to disambiguation pages.

A test page is not the same as one that an author has blanked. If the author has blanked it, that is a G7. A test page is something that experiments with some parts of Wikipedia.

Adding local common namesHi Sagotreespirit, nice to meet you! I noticed you've been adding some local names to Wikipedia articles. Because there are so many languages spoken around the world, we can't possibly include all of them. If we include common names in some languages but others, that leads to questions about which common names get included or excluded and why. I don't think adding these local common names is a great fit for Wikipedia's goals--after all, it's not a dictionary or an indiscriminate collection of information. However, Wikispecies might be a good place to add this information. At the bottom of every Wikispecies page there is a section for vernacular names. If the language you want to add (Kwaza, for example) isn't an accepted part of the template, you can request that it be added here. Hope that helps. Enwebb (talk) 20:45, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference.
In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.
