Thread:Talk:New Page Patrol Zoom Interface/Don't encourage templating/reply (3)

In my experience some patrollers just tag and template, others do a lot of categorising typo fixing and so forth. I suspect that the system currently relies on those who tag and template to handle the sheer volume of newpages, and I wouldn't suggest simply withdrawing the templates because NPP as currently constituted would immediately get swamped. But as I read this proposal it is channeling patrollers into just tagging and templating articles - shifting the balance further towards templating and away from article improvement. I don't see that as healthy.
