== Speedy deletion declined: [[:Timeline of computing 2020–29]] ==

Hello Saff V.. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of [[:Timeline of computing 2020–29]], a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''I can't imagine how the context could be any clearer, and similar timelines are linked at the bottom of the page''' Thank you.

{{re|Winged Blades of Godric}} When Saff V. pointed out that the Xulon publication was self-published (which I didn't know when I included the source in the article), then I [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ruhollah_Khomeini&diff=922856887&oldid=922856439 removed] the source. As for the Adler & Adler publication, as far as I know, that's not a self-published source. Both sources were used to support the following statement:

{{talk quote|"One of Khomeini's first acts when he took power was to lower the age of marriage from eighteen to nine years old for girls, and down to fifteen years old for boys. Khomeini told the Muslim faithful that marrying a girl before she begins menstruation was a “divine blessing.” “Do your best to ensure that your daughters do not see their first blood in your house.” These new laws also encourage polygamy and prevented women from leaving abusive husbands."|}}

In addition to those two sources, I also included the following sources to support that statement (and, as far as I can see, they are not self-published):

* {{tq|"Under Khomeini, child marriage was allowed once more, with the age of marriage being reduced from 18 to nine for girls (revised, after protests, to 13) and 15 for boys. New laws encourage polygamy and prevented women from leaving abusive husbands. The husband’s right of unilateral divorce was reinstated. New policies encouraged temporary marriage as ‘morally sanctioned substitute for Western dating’, with trial ‘sigheh’ marriages recommended for high-school students, and sex workers being invited to enter short-term marriage contracts with returning war veterans."|}}[https://books.google.com/books?id=dBoj3c5VPAMC&pg=PA166&dq=khomeini+child+marriage&hl=es&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjT0I6u8q_lAhWx6uAKHeGcB70Q6AEIPDAC#v=onepage&q=khomeini%20child%20marriage&f=false I.B. Tauris ]

* {{tq|"Khomeini called marriage to a girl before her first menstrual period “a diving blessing,” and he advised the faithful: “Do your best to ensure that your daughters do not see their first blood in your house.” This practice continues to this day, despite the severe injuries girls often incur from early intercourse and childbirth.|}} [https://books.google.com/books?id=eanFm7hiM1cC&pg=PA48&lpg=PA48&dq=khomeini+children+bride&source=bl&ots=qesrR0VfWr&sig=ACfU3U1DBTomKEamRum9I1FhdujI-qcalg&hl=es&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjB48TJ76_lAhWSEBQKHSnXDXs4ChDoATAJegQICBAB#v=onepage&q=khomeini%20children%20bride&f=false Encounter Books]

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon.

;Getting the queue to 0

There are now {{NUMBERINGROUP:patroller}} holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action.<br>

Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If ''each'' reviewer soon does '''only 2 reviews a day''' over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by ''every'' reviewer doing '''only 1 review every 2 days''' - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.<br>

Want to join? Consider adding the [[Template:User NPP Pledge|'''NPP Pledge userbox''']].<br>

Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Coordination#Awards|'''really cool awards''']].

; Coordinator

Admin {{U|Barkeep49}} has been officially invested as [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/Coordination#New_Page_Review_Coordinators|NPP/NPR coordinator]] by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers.

;This month's refresher course

Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: [[WP:LTA/OM|This official Wikipedia article]] will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol#Conflict_of_Interest_(COI),_paid_editing|The Hallmarks]] to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources.

;Tools

*It is now possible to select new pages by date range. This was requested by reviewers who want to patrol from the middle of the list.

*It is now also possible for accredited reviewers to put any article back into the New Pages Feed for re-review. The link is under 'Tools' in the side bar.

;Reviewer Feedback

Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/School#New Reviewer Mentorship|New Reviewer mentorship]] will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional [[Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol/School#Peer review cohort|peer review cohort]] for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch ''November 13''.

;Second set of eyes

*Not only are ''New Page Reviewers'' the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work, especially while some routine tagging for deletion can still be carried out by non NPR holders and inexperienced users. Read about it at the [[WP:NPP#Monitoring the system|'''Monitoring the system''']] section in the tutorial. If you come across such editors doing ''good'' work, don't hesitate to encourage them to apply for NPR.

*Do be sure to have [[WT:NPR|'''our talk page ''']] on your watchlist. There are often items that require reviewers' special attention, such as to watch out for pages by known socks or disruptive editors, technical issues and new developments, and of course to provide advice for other reviewers.

;Arbitration Committee

The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights.

;Community Wish list

There is to be no [[:meta:wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2020|wish list]] for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.
