August 2023 Good Article Nominations Backlog Drive ↗ reminder
The August 2023 Good Article Nominations Backlog Drive ↗ is at the halfway mark, and has seen incredible progress, dropping the backlog from 638 to 359 unreviewed articles -- a '''43.7%''' reduction in only fifteen days! But we still have over two weeks to go, and there are plenty of articles left to review:
- We've gone from 14 nominations 270+ days old and 65 nominations 180+ days old to 2 and 0 respectively. No more articles will reach 270+ status during the drive, and only three more will reach 180+ if unreviewed, so this is your last chance to get the higher age bonuses!
- We still have plenty of articles in the 90+ range, but the list is shrinking fast.
- Some articles need new reviewers, either because they're officially on second opinion or because the original reviews were deleted or invalidated. You can help prevent these articles from waiting longer!
- While there are starting to be clear favourites for the Content Review Medal of Merit, the field is still '''very open'''. A late entrant can still pull an upset to get the most reviews in the drive!
And remember: if you've done reviews, you should log them at the backlog drive page for points, so they can be tracked towards your awards at the end.
Thanks for signing up for the drive, and I hope to see you reviewing! <b style="color:black">Vaticidal</b><b style="color:#66023C">prophet</b> 02:01, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
flag orbs
I am trying to make similar orbs as to the ones you put on commons, and I am encountering an issue wherein certain SVG elements are too large or otherwise proportioned incorrectly in the PNG preview, which makes topicons look strange. I was wondering if you had similar issues or might know how to address this, because I assume you are more experienced than I am. :File:Flag orb Perm Krai.svg ↗ <span style="color: maroon">Alexeyperlov</span> (<span style="color: maroon">Complain</span> ↗) 19:16, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
:{{ping|Alexeyperlov}} Thanks for reaching out :)
:I uploaded a new version, hopefully this one works. For the flag orb templates I created :File:Flag orb template.svg ↗, and all the other files are a derivative of that. I'm not sure to what extent I can offer advice, especially if you use a different program from the one I use (Illustrator). I could help you make the other orbs, if you'd like?

::This works, thank you very much. It may be a software issue (not paying for illustrator for a one time thing), or it may be a me issue with designing it; I don't know. A much better version nonetheless. <span style="color: maroon">Alexeyperlov</span> (<span style="color: maroon">Complain</span> ↗) 15:04, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
