Thank you today for the article, "about the 2021 version of the World Snooker Championship. Third times the charm!"! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:07, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
The article Neville Chamberlain (police officer) you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Neville Chamberlain (police officer) for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

This is a 20 year show with a huge fanbase. There are numerous issues with the changes you're making. There are *multiple* discussion threads on the survivor subreddit pointing out all of the issues with the changes you're making, but the community at large is especially attached to the color charts. I understand that people who are color blind need other indicators to get information, but there is no reason to remove the colors for everyone else.
The color tribe charts and voting charts are important to the show. They indicate at a glance how much control someone had over a vote and in multiple tribe switch seasons, they're especially helpful to track a contestant's journey through multiple tribes.
Additionally, there is survivor lore around tribe colors, including stats on which tribe colors are most popular and most cursed. Using the actual tribe colors on the wiki is important.
Additionally, it is inappropriate to make the main photo the DVD cover instead of the season logo. You are spoiling every season but 1 by doing so, and not giving people the opportunity to visit the page without being immediately spoiled by the photo alone.
Overall the changes you're making are bad. Bad for the fandom, and just largely harder to follow. Please stop. We beg you. 173.67.8.6 (talk) 21:53, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
Using the actual tribe colors on the wiki is important.- it simply isn't. There is incalculable amount of articles on teams that have a dedicated colour, but shouldn't just have that at every opportunity.
Hi,
I would just liked to add to the consensus that you are making the survivor pages difficult to read by removing colors. I get there is a MOS but I'm assuming there's some room for common sense there as well.
Also, the DVD cover you are using as main images usually only feature players that make it past the merge and the winner (so if they aren't on there you know they don't win). I think the season logo's were more than sufficient to represent here.

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days.

The second round of the 2022 WikiCup has now finished. It was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 115 points to advance to round 3. There were some very impressive efforts in round 2, with the top seven contestants all scoring more than 500 points. A large number of the points came from the 11 featured articles and the 79 good articles achieved in total by contestants.
Our top scorers in round 2 were:
The rules for featured and good article reviews require the review to be of sufficient length; brief quick fails and very short reviews will generally not be awarded points. Remember also that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met.
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

On 21 May 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Slosh (cue sport), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the game of slosh shares the name with a English batter and sausage dish? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Slosh (cue sport). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Slosh (cue sport)), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

The article Slosh (cue sport) you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Slosh (cue sport) for issues which need to be addressed.

Hello Lee Vilenski/Archives/2022,
At the time of the last newsletter (No.26, September 2021), the backlog was 'only' just over 6,000 articles. In the past six months, the backlog has reached nearly 16,000, a staggering level not seen in several years. A very small number of users had been doing the vast majority of the reviews. Due to "burn-out", we have recently lost most of this effort. Furthermore, several reviewers have been stripped of the user right for abuse of privilege and the articles they patrolled were put back in the queue.
Several discussions on the state of the process have taken place on the talk page, but there has been no action to make any changes. The project also lacks coordination since the "position" is vacant.
In the last 30 days, only 100 reviewers have made more than 8 patrols and only 50 have averaged one review a day. There are currently 815 New Page Reviewers, but about a third have not had any activity in the past month. All 847 administrators have this permission, but only about a dozen significantly contribute to NPP.
This means we have an active pool of about 450 to address the backlog. We cannot rely on a few to do most of the work as that inevitably leads to burnout. A fairly experienced reviewer can usually do a review in a few minutes. If every active reviewer would patrol just one article per day, the backlog would very quickly disappear.
If you have noticed a user with a good understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, do suggest they help the effort by placing {{subst:NPR invite}}
on their talk page.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process and its software.
To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Hi Lee, it is superfluous to cite each race win, and is never done on other horse race jockey articles, such as Willie Carson, Pat Eddery, Eddie Delahoussaye etc. If there is a dispute, then a reference can then be required, no problem. I don't believe there is any controversy regarding the winners so the tag (IMHO) should be removed. I have used the guidance on When to use (or not use) the "citation needed tag". Best wishes.
