Hey, this is where you can ask me questions if you want. If you have questions about Wikipedia itself, your best bet might be the Teahouse, but otherwise, just click 'New Section', sign your name with those quadruple tildes ('~~~~'), and I'll get back to you when I can. It helps if you ping me. If you don't know how to do this, just copy and paste {{ping|TheTechnician27}}, {{re|TheTechnician27}}, or {{u|TheTechnician27}} before your message.
Your GA nomination of Socrates Nelson
The article Socrates Nelson you nominated as a good article has passed

New Page Patrol newsletter September 2021
Hello TheTechnician27,
Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.
Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.
At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.
There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software.
Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here.
To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here. Sent to 827 users. 04:33, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
Reply: COI editing at Ali Miraee
Hi dear TheTechnician27, the person covered on this page is an internationally recognized artist. Just do a Google search for him. Also, the large number of references in this article show that this article and its claims are completely valid. I have never found a page on Wikipedia that has so much reference to another cartoonist. You also accused me of receiving compensation for editing this page. Do you think a cartoonist makes a lot of money from his art that he pay money for his own Wikipedia page?! I'm sure your problem with this artist and me is not personal and biased. If you think this article could be better, please share your suggestions in detail.
- Hi, Aminloveis. You've never found a Wikipedia article that has so many references to a cartoonist because experienced editors broadly treat WP:BOMBARDMENT as a negative thing and try not to Gish gallop their subject to notability. Regarding undisclosed WP:PAID, that also applies to subjects who write autobiographies about themselves and stand to further their careers by doing so, as Wikipedia shows up at the top of every major web browser (in your case, I have every reason to believe you're the subject in question or somebody related closely thereto). You bizarrely accuse me of bias despite the fact that the only reason I even found this article is that I was looking for Facebook analytics parameters in URLs, i.e. fbclid. Your article just happens to stick out like a sore thumb to experienced editors for a wide array of reasons. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 19:48, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
Hi again dear TheTechnician27, Thanks for the suggestion about "citation overkill". I did not know about it. I will delete additional references at the first opportunity. I'll be happy to help me to edit this page so we can improve this page together. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aminloveis (talk • contribs) 20:07, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
