Hello Triptothecottage, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!
Overall the June backlog drive was a success, reducing the last 3,000 or so to below 500. However, as expected, 90% of the patrolling was done by less than 10% of reviewers.
Since the drive closed, the backlog has begun to rise sharply again and is back up to nearly 1,400 already. Please help reduce this total and keep it from raising further by reviewing some articles each day.

Hello Triptothecottage, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!
The New Page Feed currently has 2700 unreviewed articles, up from just 500 at the start of July. For a while we were falling behind by an average of about 40 articles per day, but we have stabilised more recently. Please review some articles from the back of the queue if you can (Sort by: 'Oldest' at Special:NewPagesFeed), as we are very close to having articles older than one month.

Hello Triptothecottage. I am contacting you because you are a speaker of both English and French. I have created the page Draft:Pierre_Jovanovic nearly 2 months ago, and I am waiting for a review. Could you please consider having a look at it ? Please excuse me if my request is improper. I am learning the ropes. Best regards. Micha Jo ( talk) 08:30, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

Hello Triptothecottage,
This year's award for the Reviewer of the Year goes to Onel5969. Around on Wikipedia since 2011, their staggering number of 26,554 reviews over the past twelve months makes them, together with an additional total of 275,285 edits, one of Wikipedia's most prolific users.
See also the list of top 100 reviewers.
The backlog is now approaching 5,000, and still rising. There are around 640 holders of the NPR flag, most of whom appear to be inactive. The 10% of the reviewers who do 90% of the work could do with some support especially as some of them are now taking a well deserved break.
At #1 position, the Community Wishlist poll closed on 3 December with a resounding success for NPP, reminding the WMF and the volunteer communities just how critical NPP is to maintaining a clean encyclopedia and the need for improved tools to do it. A big 'thank you' to everyone who supported the NPP proposals. See the results.
Due to a number of changes having been made to the feed since this three-minute video was created, we have been asked by the WMF for feedback on the video with a view to getting it brought up to date to reflect the new features of the system. Please leave your comments here, particularly mentioning how helpful you find it for new reviewers.

The issue I have with the costings is the estimates around $100 billion are a reference towards for the RFI alternative proposal, which is not the SRL specifically.
The comments from the opposition are just unreliable, it's just to question how Labor can deliver the project. Remember how they came up with a 19 billion figure for their High Speed Rail project.
Daniel Bowen who is a well respected transport blogger / campaigner and spokesperson for PTUA. Gave a good idea of the estimate of the cost of the project.
"Here’s a back of the envelope costing: The Metro 1 tunnel now under construction is 9 kilometres of twin tunnels and 5 stations, costing about $10 billion. Let’s assume for a moment that each station costs $1 billion, and tunnels cost $0.5 billion per kilometre.
Metro 3 as initially envisaged is 90 kilometres and 12 stations (though I would strongly argue for at least a handful more stations). Based on that rule of thumb, we’d be looking at $45 + $12 = $57b. So about $50b or less might be close to the mark, assuming some economies of scale from the bigger project, and remember that some of the route won’t underground."
<Source: https://www.danielbowen.com/tag/metro-3/>
The $50 Billion figure is around the ball-park what the project may cost. The upper cost $100 billion is used to oppose the project not shown on paper how that figure is worked out. The government who proposed the idea, has worked on this in secrecy for 12 months before announcement, also they are working on a business case, which will probably show a more exact amount of the cost of the project. So their figure is more justified than the opposition, who doesn't have much to work on to show how they came up with their figure of $100 billion.

You've really done a fantastic job on this - nailing down the actual sourced proposals in that mess of OR must have been quite a job. Thanks! The Drover's Wife ( talk) 01:32, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
On 3 March 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 2003 Melbourne runaway train, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the 2003 Melbourne runaway train avoided a disastrous collision by less than a second? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/2003 Melbourne runaway train. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, 2003 Melbourne runaway train), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

hi - thank you for your message regarding Riverdance. No, we don't have a conflict of interest. When this article was first published in 2006 we were included as part of the article. Since then the attribution was removed. The video source clearly shows the presence of ANÚNA and the slightest effort to research the original performance of Riverdance would confirm our involvement. however, at some stage the attribution (not by us) was removed. Changing our username to conceal who we are seems rather disingenuous. But if thats what it takes to give the correct information then so be it. please advise and thank you for your speedy intervention. AnunaChoir ( talk) 20:49, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
