Users ending probation

The following users are ending their probation. If there are no issues they will be considered full AFC reviewers.

Random selection of reviews from each editor reviewed, no major issues. Fine by me to continue. Primefac (talk) 11:55, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Almy

I submitted an article after someone draftified it for not having a source. I saw that there was 3,817 drafts for review and that it could take 8 weeks, and since I have a good amount of Wikipedia experience I want to help cut down on that large number of drafts that need to be reviewed. I have new page reviewer and rollback permissions and I have an understanding of AfD and have read over the deletion policy and notability guidelines. Almy (talk) 00:30, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Almy. Thanks for applying. Your article creation experience is a step in the right direction as it would give you command over notability guidelines. Your sourcing skills are still developing and I'll recommend you spend a month more adding reliable sources to our articles. You have insignificant experience in deletion areas, and I would again recommend a month of experience in our deletion areas (see the reco at the top of this page). Lastly, I would encourage you to be positive while engaging with fellow AfC reviewers and to avoid statements like this that may feel snarky and also give an impression that this is a revenge application. I look forward to you re-applying in a month. Please reach out to me for any assistance in the meanwhile. Thanks, Lourdes 01:43, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would like trying to reduce the backlogs here, if I am permitted. Thank you AbhiMukh97(Speak)(Contribs) 11:25, 2 October 2019 (UTC) AbhiMukh97(Speak)(Contribs) 11:25, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Cassiopeia, your comments requested please. Thanks, Lourdes 02:09, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done - for now. You are already doing an excellent job tagging totally inappropriate drafts for deletion, but please continue your anti-vandalism work following the user right you were recently accorded. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 00:18, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Dee03

Recently came across Draft:2018 Asian Shotgun Championships which is obviously notable and has been lying in draftspace for more than three months. I have sufficient experience with article creation, notability guidelines and deletion processes, and would like to review sports-related AfC drafts from time to time. Dee03 20:26, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Done You could in the future consider running for adminship, with some additional experience in adminning related areas. Thanks for applying. Lourdes 02:53, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Muhandes

I've been around for some time, created some pages (up to GA) and had my share of XFDs, so I think I am quite familiar with the policies and the process. These days I usually help with templates and fight vandalism, but seeing the horrendous backlog I thought I'll try to help in this area as well.--Muhandes (talk) 16:17, 6 October 2019 (UTC) Muhandes (talk) 16:17, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have experience with Page Curation on the New Page Patrol and I would also like to help the backlog in this area of Wikipedia. I check my account pretty regularly and am more than willing to engage in discourse as to my decisions to publish/deny a submission.

User:Nsk92

I have been a WP editor for 12 years. I fairly regularly participate in AfDs, and do occasional CSD tagging and PRODding. I do NPP from time to time and I am somewhat interested in seeing from the inside how the AfC process works by comparison. And yes, I have read through the WP:AFCR page.

User:Andrew Base

I requested that my AFC reviewer rights be removed a week ago as many users told me that I wasn't able to use them properly and my rights were removed by Barkeep49, but I would like to request the rights back since I have read the WP:AFCR page and would like to reduce the AFC backlog. Andrew Base (talk) 07:58, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I am of mixed opinion which is why I told Andrew he could come here and have a different sysop make a decision. On the one hand, I'm glad he's now read what he's read. That's a real good start. On the other hand, it's only been a week. If he were doing this after a month it would be a clear decision for me. But right now it's hard for me to tell if he's truly learned something from the mistakes or is just trying to say the right things. I'd like him to take Wikipedia just a beat slower in general. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 13:48, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. Please give it at least a month of substantial editing so that we have something to evaluate. In the meantime, keep up the good anti-vandalism work.Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:30, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Meeanaya

Hello, I would like to have the reviewer rights to help with the backlog of pages to review. I can help in eliminating spam, a lot of times when I create articles it stays unreviewed for several weeks, so I would like to help out in this way for AFC. I have been helping Wikipedia to stay away from Spam and have deleted several spam pages. I have been working at New Pages Patrol without the rights and I have been active at AFD (successfully nominated and deleted over 50 pages), the right will help to clear the backlog. I feel with my experience I will be able to successfully and efficiently review new articles and pages.

I also have over 1400 total edits and 34 articles created, none of them are deleted. I have also learned what is WP:GNG and what are WP:RS and really to help Wikipedia to stay away from Spam. The right will be useful if I could patrol them as well as doing the manual of style tidy up and categorization. Meeanaya (talk) 07:04, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done. For the moment you still need to obtain a better understanding of notability. If you would like to help with maintenance, you could try your hand at reverting vandalism. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:57, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Zzu8586

Hello - I am a member since 2016 and would like to help out with the AfC review backlog. I believe I have meet the criteria, I have experience with CSD and Prod.

 Not done. You do not yet meet the basic requirement. Please complete three consecutive months of solid editing and ask again. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 00:01, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:GeneralPoxter

I have been through the AfC process numerous times and found it an extremely helpful and rewarding experience for new Wikipedians. I would like to repay the help I received, especially focusing on new articles that share the same subject as the Wikiprojects I am a member of.

User:TimBray

Hi, I recently submitted an AfC for Sarah Shmarsh and discovered the review backlog, which seems really large. I could volunteer to put in an hour here and an hour there reviewing. I'm not deep into WP culture but I've edited quite a bit over the years. Tim Bray (talk) 19:06, 27 October 2019 (UTC) Tim Bray (talk) 19:06, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Very little page creation, a declined draft, and almost no demonstration of deletion policy/notability (bullet points 4/5). Inclined to decline but I'll take a deeper look later just to see if there's something I'm missing. Will not be opposed to someone else commenting/reviewing in the meantime. Primefac (talk) 00:56, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done - for now, Tim. You have only made 30 mainspace edits in the last 12 months so a need for this right is not demonstrated. Please ask again when you have made 500 mainspace edits in three consecutive months. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 03:13, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Fin 22

Hi there! I normally do anti-vandalism, but would love to be a part of AfC and help out reviewing drafts and lift the backlog. I know my way around Wikipedia's Notability Guidelines well, and have spent some time in AfD, and have definitely developed my understanding of the policies. I totally welcome any directed evaluation of my contributions, or a point in the right direction so I can end up helping out here :) ƒin (talk) 00:24, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done for now. While you meet the minimum editing criteria, 85% of your article-space edits are fighting vandalism (totally fine) which doesn't leave much for demonstrating you know your way around creating or improving articles. If you're interested in helping out here I would suggest doing a little bit more work at AFD, as well as potentially checking out new pages to see if any require speedy deletion. Primefac (talk) 14:40, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Caker18

I am active on reverting vandalism through Twinkle, and I have experience in the CSD, RPP and ARV zones. I also have more than 500 edits and therefore exceed the requirements. I am interested in history subjects and I have a wide knowledge of premodern times - thus I can help with fact-checking pages related to these topics. I also have a quick eye and I am on the Copy-editing Guild, the RC Patrol, the Typo Team, amongst others, a full list of which could be found on my user page. I'm Caker18! I edit Wikipedia sparingly. (talk) 20:06, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
information Administrator note This AfD gives me pause. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 03:40, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I do realize that; I was kind of trying to ask for ideas and suggestions instead of actually deleting it - of course I also put it in AfD because if it does not per consensus meet notability guidelines there is already a forum for deciding that. I'm Caker18! I edit Wikipedia sparingly. (talk) 18:17, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done - for now. That AfD is extremely clear and AfD is not a deletion school. Not only do reviewers need to have an excellent knowledge of notability criteria, they should also know the exceptions such as WP:GEOLAND, and fully understand WP:DELETION. 500 edits is only the basic threshold. Keep up the good work reverting vandalism and apply here again in a couple of months when you have more experience. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:59, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Interstellarity

I am currently being trained by CASSIOPEIA to become an AFC reviewer. See my training page. I am almost done with training and feel I'm ready to take on this task. Please ping me when you answer this request. Interstellarity (talk) 16:48, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
information Administrator note Could CASSIOPEIA please weigh in here. Thanks. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 03:43, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Kudpung Greetings. @Interstellarity: has finished 6 out of the 9 Assignments in the NPPSCHOOL program and yet to start the "reviewing" assignment and "AfD" assignment has yet to be reviewed. So far Interstellarity is doing well in the program, however, more exercises needed on CSD G11 and G12 to demonstrate interstellarity of understanding how to apply them. I have advised Interstellarity to apply AfC after they have finished the "Final exam" of NPPSCHOOL program and I will create a sub page to discuss AfC as the process and criteria between the NPP and AfC are very different. . My advice is for Interstellarity to grant the AfC after the abovementioned is fulfilled. Best. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 04:52, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done - yet. @Interstellarity: Please see the recommendations by CASSIOPEIA and reapply when the course is completed. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:12, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
