NPR is a complex process. It now needs two coordinators. Elections will periodically be held. Candidates must be holders of the 'Patroller' (New Page Reviewer) right. Voting is open to any confirmed registered user. Ideally at least one coordinator should be an administrator because it is often necessary to issue blocks and page protections, and/or view deleted material.
Candidates can be nominated by others or nominate themselves here.

New Page Reviewing now needs coordinating by a designated team. The New Page Reviewer coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining the internal structure and processes of New Page Review. They coordinate activities, maintain our pages, and organize drives and conferring of all awards other than the standard barnstar. They organise elections for coordinators.They have no authority over article content or editor conduct and have no special powers conferred by their coordinaror or patrolling/reviewng activities. In particular they:

• Watch over all the pages connected with New Page Patrolling and reviewing (see page-top nav bar)
• Monitor the page at Page Curation, to provide help with reporting bugs to Phab. Liaise with devs and/or WMF staff.
• Monitor the page at Page Curation/Suggested improvements
• Monitor (but do not clerk) the page at Requests for permissions/New page reviewer to ensure that the newly created reviewers have been notified, and that the Newsletter mailing list is maintained (sometimes the automated script is not used to add new names, sometimes blocked users need to be removed).
• Answer questions at any of the talk pages.
• Provide help to new patrollers, monitor and coordinate the NPP School, or co-opt additional users to serve this task
• Warn patrollers that they are getting things wrong.
• Report issues to ANI and/or report them directly to admins.
• Act as editorial board for a quarterly (or any other period) newsletter or co-opt additional users to serve this task.
• Maintain stats and/or coordinate with those who know how to quarry for them.
• Keep an eye on the development of ORES.
• Exchange feedback with other language Wikipedias.
• Attend meetups and Wikimania whenever possible, to discuss the project.
• Be prepared to conduct and participate on Skype conferences on the topic.

And if you think this is a lot of work, ask Kudpung who has been doing it practically single handed for nearly 6 years.

Elections

NOMINATIONS FOR THE 2017 ELECTION ARE NOW OPEN
Coordinators are elected by a simple approval vote of the membership, which will be held every twelve months or a period determined before each election. Any New Page Reviewer in good standing may nominate himself or herself, or may nominate another New Page Reviewer. Elected coordinators may serve as many times as they wish, subject to community approval. The candidate receiving the highest number of votes becomes the lead coordinator, who bears overall responsibility for coordinating the project. The other coordinator(s) advise(s) and assist the lead coordinator, and focus on any specific areas that require attention.
If the project has more work than the current coordinators can handle, and no election is imminent, the coordinators may co-opt additional users to serve as coordinators until the next election.

Occasionally, a motion to appoint a former lead coordinator as a coordinator emeritus is made for endorsement during an election. The objective is that the project may continue to benefit from their help and experience. The position has no special responsibilities and is held for as long as any coordinator emeritus wishes.

Remember that page tagging can still be carried out by any user. Although they don't have access to the features of New Pages Feed, even IP users can tag pages. Tagged pages remain listed in the feed until marked as 'patrolled' by a New Page Reviewers who is able to identify and isolate poor patrolling.

Generally, Stop #1 is friendly enough and the effort is to be supportive rather than assertive. In persistent cases however, it will be necessary to escalate through the warning levels. At Level 4, a block is usually appropriate at the very next tagging. Preferably notify an admin. Only post a case at ANI if no admin is available to stop a disruptive spree.

No.1 November 2016

Hello New pages patrol, Breaking the back of the backlog We now have 814 New Page Reviewers! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog. Now it's time for action. If each reviewer does only 10 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by each reviewer doing only 2 or 3 reviews a day - that's about 5 minutes work! Let's get that over and done with in time to relax for the holidays. 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. Read about it at the new Monitoring the system section in the tutorial. Getting the tools we need - 2016 WMF Wishlist Survey With some tweaks to their look, and some additional features, Page Curation and New Pages Feed could easily be the best tools for patrollers and reviewers. We've listed most of what what we need at the 2016 WMF Wishlist Survey. Voting starts on 28 November please turn out to make our bid the Foundation's top priority. Please help by improving or commenting on our entry at New pages Feed/Page Curation. Sent to all New Page Reviewers. Discuss this newsletter here.

No.2 February 2017

Hello New pages patrol, A HUGE backlog We now have 814 New Page Reviewers! Most of us requested the user right at PERM, expressing a wish to be able to do something about the huge backlog, but the chart on the right does not demonstrate any changes to the pre-user-right levels of October. The backlog is still steadily growing at a rate of 150 a day or 4,650 a month. Only 20 reviews a day by each reviewer over the next few days would bring the backlog down to a managable level and the daily input can then be processed by each reviewer doing only 2 or 3 reviews a day - that's about 5 minutes work! It didn't work in time to relax for the Xmas/New Year holidays. Let's see if we can achieve our goal before Easter, otherwise by Thanksgiving it will be closer to 70,000. Second set of eyes Remember that we are the only guardians of quality of new articles, we alone have to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged by non-Reviewer patrollers and that new authors are not being bitten. Abuse This is even more important and extra vigilance is required considering Orangemoody, and this very recent case of paid advertising by a Reviewer resulting in a community ban. this case in January of paid advertising by a Reviewer, also resulting in a community ban. This Reviewer is indefinitely blocked for sockpuppetry. Coordinator election Kudpung is stepping down after 6 years as unofficial coordinator of New Page Patrolling/Reviewing. There is enough work for two people and two coords are now required. Details are at NPR Coordinators; nominate someone or nominate yourself. Date for the actual suffrage will be published later.

No.3 February 2017

Hello New pages patrol, Voting for coordinators has now begun HERE and will continue through/to 23:59 UTC Monday 06 March. Please be sure to vote. Any registered, confirmed editor can vote. Still a MASSIVE backlog We now have 814 New Page Reviewers but despite numerous appeals for help, the backlog has NOT been significantly reduced. If you asked for the New Page Reviewer right, please consider invesing a bit of time - every little helps preventing spam and trash entering the mainspace and Google when the 'NO_INDEX' tags expire. Discuss this newsletter here. If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:06, 5 February 2017 (UTC) [reply]
