Hi ProgrammingGeek. Your account has been added to the "<code>New page reviewers</code>" user group. Minor user rights can now be accorded on a time limited or probationary period, so do check back at [[WP:PERM/NPR]] in case this concerns your application. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as [[meta:Help:Patrolled edit|patrolled]], tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the [[Special:NewPagesFeed|'''New Pages Feed''']]. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encylopedia. If you have not already done so, you '''must''' read the tutorial at [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol|New Pages Review]], the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion policy]]. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''new page reviewer talk page''']]. In addition, please remember:
*[[Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers|Be nice to new editors]]. They are [[WP:AGF|usually]] not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance. so that they are aware.
*You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
*If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
*Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion.
