Keep up the good work on the Georgia exit lists, but I need to suggest something. Please leave the old exit list column, and don't set the mileposts to the exit numbers. It's encyclopedic information to have the old numbers, and even if the article lacks the mileposts now, someone can easily add them in the future. Oh, and we have {{GAint}} now; I used it on Interstate 16. Imzadi 1979  01:05, 2 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

New deal for page patrollers

edit

Hi Calador109,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
