Hello CAPTAIN RAJU. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria.
You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not.
Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer.
Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator.
Administrator note You have been grandfathered to this group based on prior patrolling activity - the technical flag for the group will be added to your account after the next software update. You do not need to apply at WP:PERM. 20:56, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
Hi. You undid some edits I made to the page "Convention of Atlantic Baptist Churches". I made the edits to reflect recent changes as well as update information the reflect who we are. Previous info was out dated. As the Communications Manager for the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada (formerly Convention of Atlantic Baptist Churches) I am fully authorized to make these changes. You can view the new name on our website (http://baptist-atlantic.ca) and a complete story here: http://baptist-atlantic.ca/news/new-name-renewed-vision/. We are waiting on our legal name to change. That is in process. Please revert the changes back to my previous changes.

(talk page watcher) Captain, that seemed an inappropriate revert of good faith edits which are supported by the official website. I've reverted, moved the page, sorted stuff out. @Myers.cbac: Please note our rules about WP:COI. PamD 06:59, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
I've also added a few new incoming redirects, and disambiguation page entries at CBAC and CABC. PamD 07:08, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
Hello. Why did you send me a message telling me not to edit in Wiki English version? I didn't do any contribution before. Please make sure you are not mistaken before you send messages to other users. Thank you.從夏南 (talk) 09:19, 31 October 2016 (UTC)/Hanam

Welcome to Wikipedia Asian Month!
Hi there! Wikipedia Asian Month is about to start. Here is some information about participating in the event:
Please submit your articles via this tool. Click 'log in' at the top-right and OAuth will take care the rest. You can also change the interface language at the top-right.
Once you submit an article, the tool will add a template to the article and mark it as needing review by an organizer. You can check your progress using the tool, which includes how many accepted articles you have.
Participants who achieve 4 accepted articles will receive a Wikipedia Asian Month postcard. You will receive another special postcard if you achieve 15 accepted articles. The Wikipedian with the highest number of accepted articles on the English Wikipedia will be honored as a "Wikipedia Asian Ambassador", and will receive a signed certificate and additional postcard.
If you have any problems accessing or using the tool, you can submit your articles at this page next to your username.
If you have any question, you can take a look at our Q&A or post on the WAM talk page.

Good Article Review – MPJ-DK completed 61 GARs in R2.
Over the course of the 2016 WikiCup the following content was added to Wikipedia (only reporting on fixed value categories): 17 Featured Articles, 183 Good Articles, 8 Featured Lists, 87 Featured Pictures, 40 In The News, and 321 Good Article Reviews.

Eric Kripke
Hello Captain Raju,
I'm responding to an edit i've made on October 20 regarding Eric Kripke's past experience with Pi Kappa Alpha, which I've removed from the page. I've checked online and I found no source and proof showing his membership with the fraternity and the source attached to the sentence only associated him with USC, his alma mater. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.113.169.212 (talk) 01:23, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
We would like to announce the start of the 4th GA Cup, a competition that seeks to encourage the reviewing of Good article nominations! Thus far, there have been three GA Cups, which were successful in reaching our goals of significantly reducing the traditionally long queue at GAN, so we're doing it again. Currently, there are over 400 nominations listed. We hope that we can again make an impact this time.
The 4th GA Cup will begin on November 1, 2016. Four rounds are currently scheduled (which will bring the competition to a close on February 28, 2017), but this may change based on participant numbers. We may take a break in December for the holidays, depending on the results of a poll of our participants taken shortly after the competition begins. The sign-up and submissions process will remain the same, as will the scoring.
Sign-ups for the upcoming competition are currently open and will close on November 14, 2016. Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors, so sign-up now!
If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the judges.
To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletters, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants.

November 2016
Hello CAPTAIN RAJU. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know, however, that there is consensus that we shouldn't tag pages as lacking context (CSD A1) and/or content (CSD A3) moments after they are created, as you did at Speaking-Clock extension. It is also suggested that pages that might meet CSD A7 criteria not be tagged for deletion immediately after they are created. It's usually best to wait at least 10–15 minutes for more content to be added if the page is very short, and the articles should not be marked as patrolled. Tagging such pages in a very short space of time may drive away well-meaning contributors, which is not good for Wikipedia. Attack pages (G10), blatant nonsense (G1), copyright violations (G12) and pure vandalism/blatant hoaxes (G3) should of course be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks.

Patrolling articles with CSD and PROD tags
Hello, I noticed you adding categories and patrolling pages that have been flagged with CSD and PROD templates - these pages have already been "patrolled" and found to have issues beyond tagging, and by you later marking them as patrolled it is being marked as "accepted" - the exact opposite thing we want on such articles! Thanks, Garchy (talk) 22:02, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

Empty prod
Heads up that you added an empty prod template here, with no rationale for deletion. Please provide a reason for deletion. (In this case the article could simply have been speedied as a7.) --McGeddon (talk) 16:56, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi! I work for Sesame Workshop and we recently changed the name from Plaza Sesamo to Sesamo. We need to be able to update this page and add a blurb that speaks to this change.
How can I do that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by LATAMSesame (talk • contribs) 21:46, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
Underlinked? or Overtagged?
What else do you reckon should be linked in Manikala Rai? Country names like France, Nepal, Hong Kong, don't need to be linked. There is no article about the race, and a link to The North Face just because they sponsor it doesn't seem appropriate (the race is not mentioned in their article). There is no point in making links just for the sake of it. When this stub is developed I'm sure there will be more links to be made, but at this stage I'm genuinely curious as to why you added the tag. PamD 23:06, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
Dear collegue, I am at a loss of your placement of a banner that this article is an orphan. On what is this based? There are more than a dozen links in the text of the article. Andries Van den Abeele (talk) 23:53, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

What, exactly, was the "Unexplained removal of content" associated with this revert? Beyond the removal of the nag-tags which were no longer pertinent given the work Pawłowska had done on the article, I'm not seeing ANY content removed. So, please explain. --Tagishsimon(talk) 23:21, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
