Hello Narutolovehinata5,

Much has happened since the last newsletter over two months ago. The open letter finished with 444 signatures. The letter was sent to several dozen people at the WMF, and we have heard that it is being discussed but there has been no official reply. A related article appears in the current issue of The Signpost. If you haven't seen it, you should, including the readers' comment section.

Awards: Barnstars were given for the past several years (thanks to MPGuy2824), and we are now all caught up. The 2021 cup went to John B123 for leading with 26,525 article reviews during 2021. To encourage moderate activity, a new "Iron" level barnstar is awarded annually for reviewing 360 articles ("one-a-day"), and 100 reviews earns the "Standard" NPP barnstar. About 90 reviewers received barnstars for each of the years 2018 to 2021 (including the new awards that were given retroactively). All awards issued for every year are listed on the Awards page. Check out the new Hall of Fame also.

Software news: Novem Linguae and MPGuy2824 have connected with WMF developers who can review and approve patches, so they have been able to fix some bugs, and make other improvements to the Page Curation software. You can see everything that has been fixed recently here. The reviewer report has also been improved.

Suggestions:

• There is much enthusiasm over the low backlog, but remember that the "quality and depth of patrolling are more important than speed".
• Reminder: an article should not be tagged for any kind of deletion for a minimum of 15 minutes after creation and it is often appropriate to wait an hour or more. (from the NPP tutorial)
• Reviewers should focus their effort where it can do the most good, reviewing articles. Other clean-up tasks that don't require advanced permissions can be left to other editors that routinely improve articles in these ways (creating Talk Pages, specifying projects and ratings, adding categories, etc.) Let's rely on others when it makes the most sense. On the other hand, if you enjoy doing these tasks while reviewing and it keeps you engaged with NPP (or are guiding a newcomer), then by all means continue.

Backlog:

Saving the best for last: From a July low of 8,500, the backlog climbed back to 11,000 in August and then reversed in September dropping to below 6,000 and continued falling with the October backlog drive to under 1,000, a level not seen in over four years. Keep in mind that there are 2,000 new articles every week, so the number of reviews is far higher than the backlog reduction. To keep the backlog under a thousand, we have to keep reviewing at about half the recent rate!

You are receiving this message because you participated in the Wikipedia Asian Month 2022 as an organizer or editor.

Dear all,

The Wikipedia Asian Month 2023[1] is coming ! The campaign start within a flexible 30 days from November to December. Following with the changes of the rules made by last year, the wish to have more people get to know Asia and Asian related topic is the same! Click "Here" to Organize/Join a WAM Event.

1. Propose "Focus Theme" related to Asia !

If you are based somewhere in Asia, or have specific passion on an Asian topic, please propose your "Focus Theme" by October 25th. The WAM international team will select 5 themes. Please propose your focus theme through this link[2].

2. Enhancing existing articles can also count as part of campaign contribution.

Any edits, including creating new articles or adding new content to existing articles, over 3000 bytes in total would be able to get a reward. Last year, due to this change of rules, the Programs & Events Dashboard was suggested. However, according to community survey of 2022, Fountain Tool is still the best platform for tracking edit and points. You don’t need to create any Dashboard. For the tracking of editing existing article, the international team is currently designing a form. Will soon publish to the main page of WAM 2023.

3. More flexible campaign time

The contribution duration would remain 30days, but we extended the overall campaign timeline to 2 months. All organizers can decide when to start their WAM as long as the whole duration is within November 1st to December 31th. It means that you can participate in WAM based on the needs of your local community.

Timetable

• October 1st, 2023 : Publish International Campaign Page of the Year
• October 5th to 25th, 2023 : Call for focus themes of WAM 2023.
• Before 29 October, 2023: Complete Registration [3] of Each language Wikipedia.
• November 1st, UTC 00:00 to December 31th, UTC 00:00, 2023: Running the Campaign. (Find your local campaign for the actual event date.)
• January 1st to March 15th, 2024: Auditing of each language Wikipedia.
• March 30th, 2024: Deadline of reporting statistics and eligible editors to the International Team
• April 1st to May 15th, 2024: The international team distributes Barnstars and Certificates to eligible editors of each event.

For your information, the main page of Wikipedia Asian Month is currently undertaking a reconstruction for archiving purpose. For the 2023 event please bookmarked this page. We hope you will enjoy Wikipedia Asian Month! If you have any inquiry, feel free to contact us by info@asianmonth.wiki [4]. We look forward to your participation.

Cheers!!!

You may remember Maryvonne Le Dizès, my story today as on 28 August. Some September music was unusual: last compositions and eternal light, with Ligeti mentioned in story and music. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:11, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Today I remember an organist who was pictured on the Main page on his birthday ten years ago, and I found two recent organ concerts to match, - see top of my talk --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:07, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I made Leif Segerstam my big story today. That would be a good DYK if he was eligible. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:45, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My story today is a cantata 300 years old, based on a hymn 200 years old when the cantata was composed, based on a psalm some thousand years old, - so said the 2015 DYK hook. I had forgotten the discussion on the talk. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:38, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work with Kaguya's article but I recommend to focus on adding like third party sources from critics or other media in general to properly pass notability guidelines. Just use a basic example like I did with Kiruko and Maru from Heavenly Delusion who only had 12 episodes of anime yet there was commentary about them. Tintor2 (talk) 20:56, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Tintor2: I've actually been trying to find some commentary regarding Kaguya so I could beef up the reception section but I haven't been able to find much, at least in English. Do you have any ideas on where I can find them? If you can help out in expanding the article, that would be appreciated too since I'm planning to send it to GA eventually. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 05:52, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=21401 seems to have reviews of every Kaguya sama episode. Comicbookresources has this in quick search https://www.cbr.com/times-kaguya-sama-love-is-war-went-too-far/ and Polygon has various articles https://www.polygon.com/23207424/kaguya-sama-love-is-war-rom-com https://www.polygon.com/23599780/kaguya-sama-love-is-war-first-kiss-that-never-ends-review-anime https://www.ign.com/articles/kaguya-sama-love-is-war-season-2-premiere-review and then we have this book https://www.google.com.ar/books/edition/Anime_Parables/SZXrEAAAQBAJ?hl=es-419&gbpv=1&dq=kaguya+sama+shinomiya&pg=RA1-PA29&printsec=frontcover

Hope it helps. Tintor2 (talk) 13:20, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I've never written a full character reception section before however so any tips on how to include that information would be appreciated. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 14:10, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
