New Pages Patrol is hosting a one-time, two-month experimental backlog drive aimed at reducing the backlog. This will be a combo drive: both articles and redirects will earn points.

• The drive will run from 1 January to 28 February 2026.
• The drive is divided into two phases. Participants may take part in either phase or across both phases, depending on availability.
• Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled during the drive.
• Two-month drive-exclusive barnstars will be awarded to eligible participants.
• Each article review earns 1 point, while each redirect review earns 0.2 points.
• Streak awards will be granted based on consistently meeting weekly point thresholds.
• Barnstars will also be awarded for re-reviewing articles previously reviewed by other patrollers during the drive.
