An editor has asked fora deletion review ofAlberger process. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄)09:12, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
NA1000, I really don't get it. You are going for something that's not there. There's nothing inherently more special about deep frying eggs, and, more importantly, your source didn't say the things you wanted it to say. This is really silly and I strongly urge you not to pursue this. And "Give me time to actually finish my work on the article, before reverting instantly"--come on now. That's nonsense and you know it.Drmies (talk)00:58, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi, NA1k - I finally got an opportunity to stop by, say hi, and ask for your input. I've been working some of the redirects in the NPP queue, and came across theFrench bread redirect, which got stuck in my craw. SeeItalian bread, and then look at13 Types of French Bread. In 2005, French bread was redirected tobread, became a redirect in 2008, then a dab in 2019 that was quickly reverted. I'm of the mind that it needs to be an article similar to Italian bread because the redirect is misinformation.List of breads (which is tagged) shows Baguette, but at the bottom of the page in the templated list we have both French Bread and Italian Bread. Your thoughts?Atsme💬📧11:24, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello Northamerica1000,
After the last newsletter (No.28, June 2022), the backlog declined another 1,000 to 13,000 in the last week of June. Then the July backlog drive began, during which 9,900 articles were reviewed and the backlog fell by 4,500 to just under 8,500 (these numbers illustrate how many new articles regularly flow into the queue). Thanks go to the coordinatorsBuidhe andZippybonzo, as well as all the nearly 100 participants. Congratulations toDr vulpes who led with 880 points. Seethis page for further details.
Unfortunately, most of the decline happened in the first half of the month, and the backlog has already risen to 9,600. Understandably, it seems many backlog drive participants are taking a break from reviewing and unfortunately, we are not even keeping up with the inflow let alone driving it lower. We need theother 600 reviewers to do more! Please try to do at leastone a day.
