25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi, KyleSirTalksAlot. Thanks for patrolling new pages. I've declined your deletion request for a page that you tagged for speedy deletion ↗, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to read the new tutorial for patrollers ↗, criteria for speedy deletion ↗, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria ↗. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion ↗ or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons ↗, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion ↗. Thanks! <!-- Template:uw-csd --> &#126;2025-31245-28 ↗ (talk) 03:14, 4 January 2026 (UTC)

Arthur Culombe ↗ Redirect?



Hey! I am the editor who wrote the vast majority of the Mad Dog killings ↗ page, which is the destination to which Arthur Culombe's page redirects. I just noticed you left a template on the Arthur Culombe redirect, but to be completely honest, I don't 100% know what it means. It looks like it's suggesting that Arthur Culombe have his own article rather than just a redirect (which I'm inferring based on this: "hence this redirect is a potential article that may be suitable for expansion"). Am I correct? Is that what it means? Thanks :) Afddiary (talk) 17:06, 13 January 2026 (UTC)

:That was just me categorizing it because it's from a person to an article related to the person, not necessarily saying that he should have its own article! Check out WP:RCATS ↗ and you'll see what I was doing KyleSirTalksAlot (talk) 17:44, 13 January 2026 (UTC)
::Ohhhh. I didn't fully understand that, and I was gonna say I'm not sure there's enough info on Arthur Culombe to justify an entire article for him lol. Thanks so much for the explanation! Afddiary (talk) 02:50, 15 January 2026 (UTC)

January–February 2026 NPP drive - Phase 2



thumb|right|270px|NPP unreviewed article statistics as of February 02, 2026 ↗
Welcome to Phase 2 of the January–February 2026 NPP drive ↗. During Phase 1, we reviewed 16,658 articles and 4,416 redirects, and there is currently a backlog of 16,475 articles and 23,782 redirects in the queue. Fantastic job! Completing 22,502 patrols in the first phase made a significant dent in the backlog. Let's keep our foot on the gas for Phase 2, and I hope we can achieve even more reviews than Phase 1. Best of luck!

Neanderthal extinction ↗



You removed the "lead too short" tag from this article. Please read WP:SUMMARY ↗. This explains what is desired in a lead. You may understand better why that tag was there, and if so, you should revert yourself. - UtherSRG (talk) ↗ 17:17, 14 May 2026 (UTC)

:Well I understand in terms of total words compared to the rest of the article it is short, but in my opinion, which is similar after reading WP:SUMMARY, it includes the most important points of the article, which are explained in more detail later. If you disagree, you can put it back, but that's just me. I don't personally see how it could be significantly extended. KyleSirTalksAlot (talk) 18:03, 14 May 2026 (UTC)

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

thumb|400px|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'''

74px|left ↗{{no ping|JTtheOG}} was selected as the NPP reviewer of the year for both 2024 and 2025, for reviewing the most articles amongst all reviewers.
{{no ping|Hey man im josh}} and {{no ping|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.

{{no ping|BoyTheKingCanDance}}, {{no ping|Rosiestep}}, {{no ping|SunDawn}}, and {{no ping|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 {{no ping|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.
