User:CherryPie94

New page reviewer who has made over 90 articles including 1 good article and quite familiar with content guidelines, I may also as well not clutter the backlog for other reviewers. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 06:06, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

One thing that immediately jumped out at me is some biographical articles created (e.g. Kim Na and Son Se-bin) have unsourced biographical information, such as the date of birth. This information should be sourced to ensure compliance with WP:DOB. - Aoidh (talk) 03:07, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I've considered adding references directly next to DOB, which I did at my two most recent BLPs: Mike Kim and Lee Joon-ho. If birth information is not 100% verifiable, I play it safe (eg. Lee Seung-yoon). Per WP:DOB, links to websites maintained by the subject are generally permitted so I included Kim Na's personal website which states birth year as 1986 in the external links section. I created Son Se-bin over 5 years ago when I was much less experienced, so I don't quite recall which exact source I used for DOB (birth year seems to have been present in Star Today), so I've just amended that. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 04:22, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ah I've misinterpreted that personal website policy, though it does fall under WP:ABOUTSELF, I've now also directly sourced it. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 04:39, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Aoidh did you have any other comments on this request? Dr vulpes (Talk) 05:13, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Dr vulpes: I don't, no. I have no objection to this being approved or denied as appropriate. - Aoidh (talk) 10:21, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
 Done two month trial, feel free to ping me before hand and if there aren't any issues I'll grant it permanently. If any problems come up feel free to ping me on my talk page. Thanks for being chill about this taking so long. Dr vulpes (Talk) 03:25, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Kjansen86

I am autopatrolled and an NPP reviewer; I would actually like to nominate User:Kjansen86 to be autopatrolled. I just reviewed and cheerfully accepted almost a dozen perfectly-formulated articles on Zoroastrian texts, and they have made more than 25 overall. Looking at their talk page, this appears to be an experienced and effective editor. Checking their AfD stats, I find one (successful) AfD that they initiated, indicating an awareness of notability. We may as well take them out of the NPP backlog. (This is my first time nominating someone else so if I did it wrong, please let me know!) ~ L 🌸 (talk) 21:17, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Already done (automated response): This user already has the "autoreviewer" user right. — MusikBot talk 21:20, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@LEvalyn: I went ahead and adjusted the nomination so it reflects who's actually being discussed, hope you don't mind! For future reference, you can use the "add request" link at the top of this page and replace the {{subst:REVISIONUSER}} with whichever user you're nominating. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 21:42, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, I really appreciate your fix for this nomination and your tip for next time! ~ L 🌸 (talk) 23:01, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@LEvalyn: Thank you very much for the positive evaluation of my work on Wikipedia. I really appreciate it. Kjansen86 (talk) 08:22, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Hteiktinhein

Hello, I have created over 30 articles, none of which have been deleted. I am well-versed in Wikipedia's notability guidelines and currently assist new Burmese editors. I focus on creating articles related to Myanmar that need to be written, including those covering current events. Granting me autopatrolled rights would help reduce the backlog of articles awaiting review. Feel free to ping me if you have any questions. Thank you for your consideration. Hteiktinhein (talk) 14:43, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator comment) At the pace this editor is creating, I would expect granting the flag to help reduce the backlog. These are solid articles; talk pages are created, which helps as well. I am AGF'ing on the Burmese language sources but have no concerns. @Hteiktinhein, a couple nits: on Padein Prince rebellion, the section of "Members" with an unexplained bulleted list is a bit confusing, and on Thetpan Mibaya, the "see also" section should go above the references section per MOS:LAYOUT. But these are just small things to keep in mind for the future. Dclemens1971 (talk) 23:51, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Dclemens1971 Thank you very much for your kind comment on my contributions. I plan to continue creating more content related to Burmese history, especially topics that are still missing from the English Wikipedia.
Although access to Wikipedia has been banned in Myanmar across all language versions, I am able to contribute using the ipblock-exempt right.
Please don't worry about the Burmese-language sources — I have substantial knowledge of Burmese history, particularly the Konbaung era, and I have access to both online and offline versions of the Konbaung Chronicle and other historical texts. I appreciate your helpful notes regarding some minor issues in my articles, such as the structuring of See also sections and now fixed, and I'll certainly keep them in mind going forward. Best regards. Hteiktinhein (talk) 16:50, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, may I ask what the issue is? There doesn’t seem to be any problem on my side, and all the other users who applied at the same time have already been granted the rights. Why am I the only one delayed? Hteiktinhein (talk) 03:04, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Fade258

Hello Admin! I have been regularly creating articles and I'm also familiar with WP:AUTOPAT and Wikipedia policies. Thank you! Fade258 (talk) 15:05, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator comment) Hello fellow New Page Patroller @Fade258! One question I have is: are you going to boost your article creation? I see only one new actual article created since October 2023, so at that pace adding the AP flag wouldn't do much to reduce the backlog. You do seem more active in creating redirects, so once you get to 100 uncontroversial redirects created, you could apply for the pseudo-right at Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect autopatrol list, which I would endorse you for and which would autopatrol your redirects and reduce the backlog there. As for your one recent creation, a couple notes. On Saumya Saraswat, the article subject should be bolded at the beginning of the first sentence. Two of your sources are unbylined WP:NEWSORGINDIA sources ([1], [2]), which are of questionable reliability. Hope this helps! Dclemens1971 (talk) 23:41, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Dclemens1971, Thank you for reviewing my request and for the feedback! I appreciate your suggestions and I will aim to increase my article creation rate moving forward. Currently, I have some articles on my plate to create but due to my personal reason I am not doing that. In the meantime, I will also focus on creating uncontroversial redirects to reach the 100 mark and apply for the redirect autopatrol pseudo-right as advised. I will also take care to bold article titles properly and be more selective with sourcing and avoiding unbylined or questionable sources. In future , I will also select those references considering the NEWSORGINDIA. Thanks again for the helpful guidance and your offer to endorse! Fade258 (talk) 01:09, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
 Done six month trial period, ping me before this expires and if there aren't any serious issues I'll make it permanent. If you run into any problems feel free to leave a message on my talk page. Dr vulpes (Talk) 03:27, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:MerlinVtwelve

Hallo! I've created 46 articles, and have been editing Wikipedia since 2010. How time flies! merlinVtwelve (talk) 20:52, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator comment) Reviewed the last several articles, and while your grasp of notability is strong, I did find an instance of WP:CLOP on your most recent creation that is very close to the line of copyvio if not over it. See Copyvio Detector results. This article is otherwise very well done! Two other things to consider when creating articles: create talk pages (the WP:RATER tool is helpful here) and make sure at least one other page links to yours. If you were to be autopatrolled, orphaned pages would likely stay orphaned longer. Dclemens1971 (talk) 23:19, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Dclemens1971thanks for the review!. I'll revisit those sections and re-word them. Will keep an eye on WP:CLOP and linked pages in future. Will check out WP:RATER also. Cheers, merlinVtwelve (talk) 06:03, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Phantomdj

Hi, I have created 118 pages and would like to have autopatrol rights, please. Thanks. Phantomdj (talk) 01:46, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator comment) I reviewed @Phantomdj's last 10 article creations, and they are overall quite good. Well-formatted, clean copy. They all appear to be compliant with WP:NASTRO. It would be helpful if they could create talk pages for their creations (the WP:RATER tool is helpful for this) but otherwise I think the project would benefit from Phantomdj being autopatrolled.
