:@[[User:Weng1988|Weng1988]] If you have an account, somebody on the same IP as you can only edit as you if they have your password. You can still change your IP address by unplugging your router for a minute or two and then plugging it back in, which usually assigns you a new IP. <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 12px #00B140, -4px -4px 12px #00B140;">[[User:FatalFit|FatalFit]]&nbsp;&#124;&nbsp;[[User_talk:FatalFit|&#9993;&nbsp;]]&#124;&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/FatalFit|✓]]&nbsp;</span> 13:05, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

    New page reviewer granted

    Hi FatalFit. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at the permissions page in case your user right is time-limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page or ask via the NPP Discord. In addition, please remember:

    • Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
    • You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
    • If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
    • Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Steps such as checking for copyright violations using Earwig's copyright violation detector, checking for duplicate articles, and evaluating sources (both in the article, and if needed, via a Google search) for compliance with the general notability guideline are mandatory and will take a few minutes per article.
    • Please review some of our flowcharts (1, 2) to help ensure you don't forget any required steps.
    • Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

    The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 14:04, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Question from Brendanaw (00:44, 9 September 2023)

    Hi Dylan,

    How do I make suggested edits and create an official Wikipedia page for myself? --Brendanaw (talk) 00:44, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi, Brendanaw, thank you your interest in contributing to Wikipedia. You are strongly advised to not create a page about yourself, as that is a conflict of interest. Creating an article is hard, so I recommend trying these easier things to do. If you do want to go ahead with creating an article, I recommend trying the Article Wizard to move forward. Thanks, and if you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask! FatalFit | ✉ | ✓  01:45, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Concern regarding Draft:Waw al Kabir Airport

    Information icon Hello, FatalFit. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Waw al Kabir Airport, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

    If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

    Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 08:02, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    New pages patrol newsletter

    Hello FatalFit,

    New Page Review article queue, March to September 2023

    Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!

    October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here.

    PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon.

    Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.

    Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.

    Question from Davilami (20:14, 22 September 2023)

    How can I add to or edit a page? --Davilami (talk) 20:14, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi Davilami! At the top of any article you can click the "edit" button. You will also see an edit button to the right of every sections header. Just tap it and start editing! I recommend checking out this guide for more help when you get into the editor. Thank you and if you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask!

    Hey, is it possible to edit a Wikipedia page without all this coding stuff. It's confusing and I don't like it. --Wolfietheotherlink (talk) 22:02, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Sure @Wolfietheotherlink! At the top right of the editing box you should see a pencil icon, tap it then click "Visual editing". If you have any more questions you can ask them here or check out the tutorial. Have a good day! FatalFit | ✉ | ✓  22:06, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    CSD error

    Hi @FatalFit, a CSD message from you appeared on my talk page. I tried moving this page to the draftspace so I accidentally became the creator of that article, it's funny. Annh07 (talk) 16:05, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Question from Bilal1973 (06:42, 6 October 2023)

    Hi @Bilal1973, autoconfirmed is automatically given to users that are at least 4 days old and have made at least 10 edits. Have a good day! FatalFit | ✉ | ✓  12:16, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    I'm thinking of sending it to AfD, I can't find any mentions of this family whatsoever online or in the wikipedia library. The closest thing is a town in Innlandet but it seems completely unrelated. FatalFit | ✉ | ✓  01:43, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Question from TallWalker88 (18:24, 25 October 2023)

    Hi Dylan ! I'm trying to launch a page about myself - it mainly lists my professional work history in the music business. Can u plz advise what I need to do so my article will appear when the search term 'JD Daniel' is inputted ? --TallWalker88 (talk) 18:24, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi TallWalker88, you can't create a page about yourself as that is considered a conflict of interest on Wikipedia. However, you can create an article on something you're not related to, or you can check out these easier things to do. You may also request an article here. I apologize for the inconvenience, have a good day and if you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask! — FatalFit | ✉ | ✓  22:58, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Question from Stewartj0421 on Pilgermann (03:48, 16 November 2023)

    Hi! In a description of a fictional plot, is it allowable to describe assumed thoughts and feelings of a character? Does it depend on whether such things are explicitly indicated in the text, and if so, should it be noted that the text describes the feelings/emotions in such ways? For example, "Reluctantly, Pilgermann sets off." Or, "Pilgermann continues, keeping his cool with a mixture of detachment, compassion, and irony." Thanks again! --Stewartj0421 (talk) 03:48, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
