 Question: We're hoping that holders of this right will dig in and seriously help reduce the massive backlog. That was what this user right was specifically created for. Could you please confirm that you have read and fully underst0d the new tutorials at WP:NPP? Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:21, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Zakhx150

I've been involved in Wikipedia for several years, gradually getting more and more involved into its mysteries. Main focus is article creation and expansion, particularly in Archaeology and Natural Sciences topics (recently added as autopatrolled), but I have previously been involved in patrolling the New Page Feed. Having more time to do so, I'd like to be involved again with Reviewer rights as it's an honourable enterprise and is something that is easy to zip in and out of, which will suit my availability on WP allowing me to contribute positively. I've a good track record and am familiar with the New Pages guidelines. Having said that, I've just re-read the guidelines and will keep them close at hand if rights are granted so that I may remain above reproach. Zakhx150 (talk) 13:07, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Teblick

I have been editing on Wikipedia for more than three years. During that time, I have created more than 100 articles and made thousands of edits. I enjoy both creating new articles and editing existing articles in order to improve them, but after seeing references to increasing backlogs of articles awaiting approval, I thought I should try to contribute in this way, also.

User:J947

I would like to request NPR due to the fact that I often tag new pages. I confirm that I have read the tutorial. J947 18:40, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Please see this user's talk page. I don't think they have enough experience to be a new page reviewer. Beyond My Ken (talk) 01:14, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done No clear indication of experience curating pages (see log), come back in 90 days time. — Coffee // have a cup // beans // 11:00, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Coffee: Not to sound insubordinate or out of line or anything, but I've read WP:NPR's guidelines for granting, and it seems as if J947's qualifications are above and beyond those specifications. It also appears as if you've (recently) granted permissions to editors with relatively little curation experience. Might I ask what the problem with this particular editor's qualifications is? R. A. Simmons Talk 02:14, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Also, when I was reviewing back in November I didn't know how to review and was reviewing them because I thought they were good articles.. Also, thanks to rasimmons for being bold and standing up for me. Another note is that I first edited in November last year yet amassed over 3,000 edits. I would like it if you reconsidered your comment. J947 04:23, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Herostratus

Err, I've created well over 400 articles, am a 10 year editor, Senior Editor III, former admin, and so forth. I have patrolled pages off and on (mostly off) in my career here, with no complaints that I know of, but maybe not in the last year, so my rights have expired? Or something. At any rate it's not working for me now... Willing to occasionally patrol a couple-few new pages off the bottom of the stack between other tasks when the mood strikes me.

User:JacobiJonesJr

Hi, I'm seeking to be a new page reviewer- I did it a bunch before and enjoyed it but I guess the permission guidelines have changed. Thanks. JacobiJonesJr (talk) 23:51, 28 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Edit - I also notice that it is routinely asked that applicants have read the guidelines again and I have done so. JacobiJonesJr (talk) 01:37, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:KathrynLybarger

To patrol new pages. I work in stub sorting, and like categorizing and doing initial cleanup. I already use things like Lupin's anti-vandal tool. KathrynLybarger (talk) 21:03, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Rasimmons

Back when I guess anyone could use the page curation toolbar, I found it very useful when reviewing new pages. Apparently, I now need special permissions to access the toolbar. Being able to use the toolbar again would help me greatly in my patrolling of new pages. I'll admit that I was sometimes a bit quick to go for a speedy delete when there were better alternatives, but I understand the rules better and I'm much more cautious in my reviewing of pages now. Needless to say, I could review pages by adding tags manually, but without the curation tools, I'm liable to forget to notify users on their talk pages and so forth. I hope to be able to use these tools to improve Wikipedia again. Thank you. R. A. Simmons Talk 21:48, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I obviously misread my mainspace edit count. Oh well. I'll try again 200 edits later, even though I already had access to the tools at one point. R. A. Simmons Talk 22:01, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I want to improve Wikipedia and make it trustworthy and reliable. I hope you understand me and feel the same way. I will not misuse this right. IExistToHelp (talk) 01:54, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:FriyMan

I am requesting new pages patroller rights to help me filter out harmful pages and help improve other pages. I have graduated from CVUA and have done a lot of maintenance tagging. I almost have 90 days on wikipedia and I have made approximately 500 edits to mainspace . FriyMan talk 09:05, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
 Automated comment This user has had an account for 83 days and has 476 edits in the mainspace. — MusikBot talk 13:13, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
 Done Although you're just below the recommended granting guidelines I've opted to add this right to your account. Please take it slow and ask if you're unsure about something. When in doubt, don't mark the page patrolled and remember not to bite! -- Samtar talk · contribs 14:51, 2 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
