Yesterday wasa friend's birthday, with related music. - I'm on vacation - see places. --Gerda Arendt (talk)22:47, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
Super cool user page as well! You also beat me to reverting a vandal. I would give you a barnstar but if I touch your user page I fear it might explode :) 【💬】00:08, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for fighting vandalism in February. - The image, taken on a cemetery last year after the funeral of a distant but dear family member, commemorates today, with thanks for their achievements, four subjects mentioned on the Main page andVami_IV, a friend here. Listen tomusic by Tchaikovsky (an article whereone of the four is pictured),sung by today's subject (whose performance on stage I enjoyed two days ago). --Gerda Arendt (talk)18:06, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi Midori No Sora!
I'm in the process of creating an article aboutShigeichi Negishi, the inventor of karaoke, as I saw he recently passed away. To see if I can find more information about him, I want to look for Japanese-language sources but I am not familiar with the Japanese press and I am functionally illiterate in Japanese. I would also like help transliterating his name into Japanese characters too. If you aren't up for helping me, I would like to know who else has a good understanding of Japanese and would like to help me. Thanks!❤HistoryTheorist❤00:57, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
Hello Midori No Sora,

Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations toSchminnte, who led with over 2,300 points.
Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations toJTtheOG, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.
Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in theMay backlog drive planning discussion.
It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!
2023 Awards

Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar.Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see theAwards page and theHall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!
WMF work on PageTriage: TheWMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developersdeployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and thengave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work toSpecial:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, whowrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.
Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.
Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updatedNPP Browser tool.
Reminders:

| It's been a while! Two days from now (October 13th), one year ago, I gave you a barnstar. I gave one to you because I was spewing out awards to people who helped me out and feel welcome in Wikipedia. I like to think I've grown from the type of Wikipedian I was back then. I'd like to thank you, not with some meaningless barnstar, but with a simple cup of tea. From the bottom of my heart, thanks for helping me and countless other editors, Midori No Sora!Babysharkboss2!!(Trout me, pull the trigger.)13:00, 11 October 2024 (UTC) |

Thank you for improving articles on October! - Mystory today is a cantata 300 years old, based on a hymn 200 years old when the cantata was composed, based on a psalm some thousand years old, - so said the 2015 DYK hook. I had forgotten the discussion on the talk. --Gerda Arendt (talk)16:33, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello. You're invited to participate in The World Destubathon. We're aiming to destub a lot of articles and also improve longer stale articles. It will be held from Monday June 16 - Sunday July 13. There is over $3300 going into it, with $500 the top prize. If you are interested in winning something to save you money in buying books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for subjects which interest you, sign up on the page in the participants section if interested. Even if you can only manage a few articles they would be very much appreciated and help towards making the content produced as diverse and broad as possible!♦Dr. Blofeld14:10, 15 June 2025 (UTC)
