  Please do not introduce links in actual articles to user pages or sandboxes, as you did at Financial Review Rich List. Since these pages have not been accepted as articles, user pages, sandboxes and drafts are not suitable for linking in articles. and such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been deleted, please do not re-add any such links, thank you - Arjayay (talk) 10:13, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

@Arjayay: Thanks for your message. The creation of a sandbox was a temporary step until the article was completed.. which has now been done. I'm not too sure what you mean by ....these links have now been deleted... as I'm making an effort to redirect all links from the sandbox to the article, that has been moved from my sandbox to the Financial Review Rich List 2021. Have a great day! Cheers. Rangasyd (talk) 10:19, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

St Peter's College, Auckland

Thank you for your work on the complex references. It is good to have the narratives transferred to notes in the main body of the article. However, if you look at the references, there is a need for a bit of a tidy up with at least one red annotation and also some of them bracketed. Also the note relating to boxing looks a bit funny. I may correct these and other matters myself if you don't, but I don't immediately have the expert wikipedia editing knowledge that you obviously have. Also, the head masters all served complete years so that Fouhy, for example served 27 years and not 25-26 years as is stated in the new table. I aam assuming that you are responsible for that. However, it is great work that you have done. It seems a lot better. Maybe the article could be upgraded now!Emendment (talk) 04:40, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

New Page Patrol newsletter September 2021

 
 
New Page Review queue September 2021

Hello Rangasyd,

Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.

Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.

At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.

There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.

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 or its software.

 

Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here.
