k request has been put there. User "Oreocooke" (speak of the sun and it shines) 15:24, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

Hi man I am editing a page of a books (manga) author. I wonder if it's ok to put the covers of her books on their works list

If it's ok, is there any guidelines for image uploading and referencing?, I would try to get the images from her Twitter or any official publication from the editorial --QuitoTactico (talk) 13:48, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

@QuitoTactico: Hey and sorry for a late response. Since Wikipedia is licensed under CC-BY-SA 4.0 it's very important to have material that can be licensed under such conditions (unlimited profit and copying of material with attribution of source and authorship), so most of the material is not usable (because it has full copyright(s)). To solve this issue we can upload photos of lesser quality under fair usage rationale, but the rationale needs to be well planned. What we're judging in such cases is usually the intent of illustration (or its informability): having manga books in her works list is illustrative, but unnecessary, while having a book cover in article about a manga work specifically is usually a good "excuse" to upload a copyrighted bookcover. I assume these covers are complex enough to be granted copyright (I suggest also reading on Treshold of originality over on Wikimedia Commons where a per country overview is given).

Another way is media donation, the overall policy on this is donating copyrighted materials policy, but those are somewhat rare in bookcover and art fields. Since your question is though to answer (and usually though for a beginner to understand as well) please do not hesitate to ask more if you've found my answer to lack.

After the January–February drive the article backlog was reduced to 15,179 articles and the redirect backlog to 19,053 respectively. Great job! However, both queues are growing rapidly and any additional reviews are highly appreciated.

2024 and 2025 NPP Awards

JTtheOG was selected as the NPP reviewer of the year for both 2024 and 2025, for reviewing the most articles amongst all reviewers.

Hey man im josh and MPGuy2824 won the Redirect Ninja Master Award for 2024 and 2025 respectively, for reviewing the most redirects.

January–February backlog drive

The experimental two-month long backlog drive concluded with 183 reviewers patrolling over 27,761 articles and 35,309 redirects, earning over 36,836 points. Congratulations to JTtheOG, who achieved first place with 6,484.6 points in this drive.

May backlog drive

An article-only backlog drive is currently underway. We are hoping to make a big dent in the backlog. You can read more about it or join at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/May 2026.

PageTriage

An attempt was made to get the New Pages Feed to sort by date marked as reviewed instead of date created. However we had to revert it due to bugs. We may try again in the future. You can subscribe to the Phabricator ticket if you're interested in following along.

Reminders:

• You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Page Patrol Discord.
• Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
