Question from Capriciouscapybara (16:50, 21 November 2025)

Hi Relativity!

I am an expert in ecology (primarily oceanography) and climate change accounting (especially related to the food sector). I've been trying to get started by making edits in that space, especially in updating outdated sources. I have a few etiquette questions: (1) Is it okay for a newbie to engage on a locked page (e.g., deforestation) through the discussion pages? Or should I hold off until I have more experience? (2) I would love to figure out which pages might be most helpful to edit with my expertise; any tips? I tried the "easy/moderate/hard" suggestion bot and also searching for topics and clicking on links, but wasn't having much luck! (3) I saw there was a place to make a user page. Is this something I should curate / put my real name on?

Thanks! I'm really excited to contribute! --Capriciouscapybara (talk) 16:50, 21 November 2025 (UTC)

A few years back I started editing a page here. Where can I find it in the last state that I left it? --I walk the earth (talk) 19:09, 21 November 2025 (UTC)

Articles for Creation backlog drive

Hello Relativity:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in December!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than half a month of outstanding reviews from the current 2+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 December 2025 through 31 December 2025.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 3000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:07, 23 November 2025 (UTC)
