Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently editedChromakopia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation pageConductor. Such links areusually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles.(Read theFAQ • Join us at theDPL WikiProject.)

I noticed that you taggedOpisthorcis sinensis forspeedy deletion. I have removed the tag from the page because it does not meet the criterion or criteria specified. Please fully readWikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion before tagging pages for speedy deletion. Thank you.That is a former name for the animal. — rsjaffe 🗣️05:00, 29 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I believe the former name is actuallyOpisthorchis sinensis, including an h. The exclusion of the H is an unlikely error.KyleSirTalksAlot (talk)05:02, 29 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. Sorry. Missed the missing h. Will delete. — rsjaffe 🗣️05:20, 29 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

January–February 2026 Backlog Drive|New pages patrol
New Pages Patrol is hosting a one-time, two-month experimental backlog drive aimed at reducing the backlog. This will be a combo drive: both articles and redirects will earn points. The drive will run from 1 January to 28 February 2026. The drive is divided into two phases. Participants may take part in either phase or across both phases, depending on availability. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled during the drive. Two-month drive-exclusive barnstars will be awarded to eligible participants. Each article review earns 1 point, while each redirect review earns 0.2 points. Streak awards will be granted based on consistently meeting weekly point thresholds. Barnstars will also be awarded forre-reviewing articles previously reviewed by other patrollers during the drive. Interested in participating?Sign up here.

Hi, KyleSirTalksAlot. Thanks for patrolling new pages. I've declined your deletion request for a page that you tagged forspeedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to read the newtutorial for patrollers,criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section coveringnon-criteria. Such pages are best tagged withproposed deletion orproposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriatedeletion discussion. Thanks!~2025-31245-28 (talk)03:14, 4 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! I am the editor who wrote the vast majority of theMad Dog killings page, which is the destination to which Arthur Culombe's page redirects. I just noticed you left a template on the Arthur Culombe redirect, but to be completely honest, I don't 100% know what it means. It looks like it's suggesting that Arthur Culombe have his own article rather than just a redirect (which I'm inferring based on this: "hence this redirect is a potential article that may be suitable for expansion"). Am I correct? Is that what it means? Thanks :)Afddiary (talk)17:06, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

That was just me categorizing it because it's from a person to an article related to the person, not necessarily saying that he should have its own article! Check outWP:RCATS and you'll see what I was doingKyleSirTalksAlot (talk)17:44, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Ohhhh. I didn't fully understand that, and I was gonna say I'm not sure there's enough info on Arthur Culombe to justify an entire article for him lol. Thanks so much for the explanation!Afddiary (talk)02:50, 15 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Phase 2 of theJanuary–February 2026 NPP drive. DuringPhase 1, we reviewed 16,658 articles and 4,416 redirects, and there is currently a backlog of 16,475 articles and 23,782 redirects in the queue. Fantastic job! Completing 22,502 patrols in the first phase made a significant dent in the backlog. Let's keep our foot on the gas for Phase 2, and I hope we can achieve even more reviews than Phase 1. Best of luck!
