Remove (July)

User:Paradise Chronicle

I was encouraged to review some of these articles in the past, but now I am not so much interested anymore. So in order not to feel obliged (I know it is voluntary) I'd prefer to be removed from the team. If I have the right, I feel obliged to at least try to accept some AfC's.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 10:27, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

I'd like permission to review draft articles, as I've come across several good quality drafts waiting in the long review queue, while I was doing other cleanup tasks. With over 13,000 edits since joining in January, I believe I have sufficient experience editing to offer help with the draft article backlog. Thanks, Storchy (talk) 21:23, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I am an NPR, and while I mostly review DABs and redirects, I also started doing articles, recently particularly after the drive started. I am also one of the actove reviewers at AFCRC, and you can see my reviews, as I have used the tool for them. As you can tell from my wikiactivity, I jump around a bit between what I do, and this is similar (but slightly different) to reviewing, and I've been looking for another region to stretch into. So if you would like to check my reviews and activity, I would like to apply for probation with AFC.

As for the requirements - 1&2   3-   I have read and understand (especially how it is different than NPR) 4- I believe that as an NPR this is  Good. 5- my logs are in my userspace - I will note ahead of time my this month on csd has a lot of blue links - one was a legitimate should not have been CSD'd one was ineligible, but I couldn't have known as I'm not an admin, one was a G12 that was dealth with through revdel and one was a G6 (move) so was actually deleted. 6-   .

My wikipedia account is over 90 days old and I have contributed over 500 undeleted edits. I have reviewed the instructions for reviewing articles for creation. I have a good understanding on notability guidelines and deletion policies. Last month I finished NPP School and have been been granted NPP privileges. Before I started NPP School I was a pending changes reviewer. I'm about to start Counter Vandalism training laster this month. I've worked hard to address problems I've found in articles with their respective authors. When I've made mistakes I've taken accountability for my actions and have reached out to the author to let them know of my error example 1, 2. When reviewing articles I take a proactive role in trying to improve them, it's important for our community to help editors make good articles. For example in a recent AfD for The Negro Sailor I worked to improve the article enough to keep it. If there are any questions or concerns please let me know.

A user does is not required to be an AFC reviewer to move pages out of the draft space, so if you want to move it go right ahead; you do not need AFCH access. Primefac (talk) 12:35, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Then why do you write "PLEASE NOTE: Editors whose usernames are not on the list are strongly cautioned not to review AfC submissions"? Alaexis_¿question? 16:06, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

"Strongly cautioned" does not mean "forbidden"; if you know what you're doing, and you know you won't waste an NPR's time by moving it to the article space, then there is no reason to wait for a formal review. Primefac (talk) 16:11, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

NeverTry4Me, do you understand that this page is for requesting permissions to review AfC submissions? You can still create articles through AfC if you are not a reviewer. 0xDeadbeef 14:03, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

0xDeadbeef yes I do. Whatever user rights I do have and shall have, I shall maintain as per rules. Moreover, creating pages through AfC is now a real fun for me. I am really enjoying AfC. And as per rule, I have created double numbers of required pages and learned how should a reviewer do while reviewing. I have now learned a lot from these experiences and studying all criteria of notability. I shall be careful with good faith if the access is provided to me. Rest, decisions are always on the staff. Whatever they decide, that will be accepted in good faith. _{- Signed by} NeverTry4Me ^Talk 14:13, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

@Primefac: I don't understand why my right changes log and XTools are not showing it. Is it a technical glitch? Regards _{- Signed by} NeverTry4Me ^Talk 02:13, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

@NeverTry4Me AFC reviewer isn't exactly a userright that will show up in Special:UserRights/NeverTry4Me and as such will not show up in xtools. Instead it is only a list that the software checks every time someone tries to access the helper script and will block access if the username isn't on the list. This is why if you have a rename you need to be re-added to the list, and I believe this is similar to the AutoWikiBrowser's system. Justiyaya 03:22, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

@Justiyaya:, thanking you for your reply, I wanted to say the other users' XTools are showing as this and this. One editor raised this concern while I declined his draft as the draft had no reliable citations. Regards- _{- Signed by} NeverTry4Me ^Talk 04:56, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

@NeverTry4Me I believe they both are new page reviewers, which is different than AFC. I don't have the flag so if you look at my xtools you can't see it. Justiyaya 05:30, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

@Justiyaya Thank you for your helpful assistance. I'm honoured to get your assistance. My curiosity is now cleared. :) _{- Signed by} NeverTry4Me ^Talk 05:33, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

I have seen that there is a backlog of articles waiting for review. I have been cleaning up so many articles for some time. Thats how I figured I could try and help to reduce the backlog.

@Primefac, you kindly added me to the list of Participants with this edit[1], but then removed me a couple hours later with this edit[2]. I'm pretty sure it was a mistake, however I am unable to use the AfC script because I was removed from the list. If it was not an inadvertent error, please let me know the reason why so I can improve whatever qualifications I may be lacking. Thank you in advance! Netherzone (talk) 14:32, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

I didn't even notice the membership expired until the script told me and I went looking for an error before realizing 6 months have passed since I reviewed a draft. Technically, I "reviewed" one recently and was about to report Draft:Aidas Arciakov again. I haven't had the time to do actual reviews, but I am often navigating around drafts, so it would be helpful to actually be able to use the script should I see something actionable. —  HELLKNOWZ ∣ TALK 12:52, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
