Please try to substitute warning templates

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When using certain templates on talk pages, as you did to User talk:99.162.106.96, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:uw-test1}} instead of {{uw-test1}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. Thank you. — Kralizec! (talk) 09:51, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Appin (company), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Boris Berezovsky. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Links to draft articles

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Lu & the Bally Bunch. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style.

Edit to WP:AFC/R

I saw that you removed several entries that were already answered on the redirect request page. That page is archived and the entries shouldn't be removed until they have been archived, which those entries were not. This is usually done by a bot but occasionally it needs to be done manually. Appreciate the assistance with responding to the requests, I just wanted to let you know that I reverted the removal. cyberdog958^Talk 05:01, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted

Hi Hmr, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the new page reviewer user right to your account. This means you now have access to the page curation tools and can start patrolling pages from the new pages feed. If you asked for this at requests for permissions, please check back there to see if your access is time-limited or if there are other comments.

This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:

• Add Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers to your watchlist to follow NPP-related discussions
• If you use Twinkle, configure it to log your CSDs and PRODs
• If you can read any languages other than English, add yourself to the list of reviewers with language proficiencies

You can find a list of other useful links and tools for patrollers at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Resources. If you are ever unsure what to do, ask your fellow patrollers or just leave the page for someone else to review – you're not alone! Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 10:30, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I saw that you moved this article, but I saw this mainspace was free before adding (song) to it, the previous deleted version with the name doesn’t match so I didn’t think to create this article under it because I don’t want the old deletion log, hope you get?

New pages patrol January–February 2026 Backlog drive

January–February 2026 Backlog Drive | New pages patrol
New Pages Patrol is hosting a one-time, two-month experimental backlog drive aimed at reducing the backlog. This will be a combo drive: both articles and redirects will earn points. The drive will run from 1 January to 28 February 2026. The drive is divided into two phases. Participants may take part in either phase or across both phases, depending on availability. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled during the drive. Two-month drive-exclusive barnstars will be awarded to eligible participants. Each article review earns 1 point, while each redirect review earns 0.2 points. Streak awards will be granted based on consistently meeting weekly point thresholds. Barnstars will also be awarded for re-reviewing articles previously reviewed by other patrollers during the drive. Interested in participating? Sign up here.

February 2026

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Haider Rafique. When removing a maintenance template, please either ensure that the problem that the template refers to has been resolved, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as this change has been reverted. Take a look at getting started to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Issues on the page remain, even with the addition of two new sources. If you believe the maintenance tag(s) should be removed, notwithstanding the article's current state, please discuss this in the article's talk page to gain a consensus from other editors. Thank you for adding extra information on the article! Nyxion³⁰³💬 Talk 23:46, 4 February 2026 (UTC)

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.

Reminders:

• You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Page Patrol Discord.
• Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
