Hi Novem, didn't see an open section for your GAN Review Tool script. Just tried it out. I've never atoped a GAN before, as sometimes there scope for a bit more conversation, but I understand the purpose if it can't be optional. Other than that, it seems to have worked well, except that the addition to the GA list was out of alpha order. I have a sneaking suspicion that it is being thrown off by the "É" special character.

Hello, I just made some significant changes to User:Terasail/Edit Request Tool. Since you have the tool active, I am informing you of this since it may affect you. To open the tool you will now have to click the "respond" button. The tool will load a similar interface as before. There is now a live preview of the response. These changes might have introduced some bugs so if you have any concerns / suggestions or run into problems please leave a note at User talk:Terasail/Edit Request Tool Thanks, Terasail [✉️] 15:20, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi. Do we have an update on what's happening? It was thrown out of Phab because someone decided it needed yet another (3rd) RfC although the pevious ones had clear consesus. Apparently one was started at the VP but I can't find it. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 06:57, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
Since we have no coordinator, my thought is to divide up the work into many smaller slices. We need someone to stay on top of the bug fixes and enhancement requests. Since you are sort-of doing that already, can we make it official and list you this person? I think someone has done this in the past, and made suggestions on behalf of NPP at the yearly wishlist or whatever that is called. But I don't see anything presently organized. The Suggestion page has a lot of links to Phab tasks, but I know that is not complete. The one discussed today about AFDs not working (238025) isn't there at all.
I would like to see a simple table of all the NPP requests, prioritized (from our perspective), like this:
Phab | Opened | Description | Bug | Priority | Status | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
310974 | 06-2022 | Extend No-index time | N | High | Open | |
238025 | 11-2019 | Opening AFDs | Y | Low | Open | Workaround - Twinkle |
You can probably get something similar out of Phabricator, but without our priority (I'm not really sure if they would all be categorized as NPP/Page Curation or maybe some are just tagged as Growth Team?) Regardless, it would be better to have a easily accessible list here. We can't really start arguing that NPP needs more developer support without having a good idea of what's been requested. Can you take this on? MB 04:11, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
Can you please confirm that T311347 is indeed carried out and operational? After all these years I still can't cut through the dev jargon at Phab. BTW, I'm very much in favour of weighing the AFD bug kind of high. I spent many hours on discussion and costly (my cost) face-to-face meetings on the development that went into PageTriage and its 2018 face-lift. I would like to leave NPP with the best set of tools ever and I don't relish the thought that my time was wasted. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 09:34, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
I'm full of admiration for people who do it. Self taught, I can just about get my head round some HTML and very basic Regex. I come from an era in which information technology as we know it today, was still pure science fiction and 'computer' meant ENIAC. Aklapper, despite his claims to the contrary, is indeed the sole voice of authority at Phab, and for him to assume that all contributors to Wikipedia are all competent programmers and scriptwriters is an insult to my intelligence and anyone else of my generation. I still contend most strongly that the WMF should provide the ongoing support and required upgrades for the applications they develop. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 02:44, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
Hey Novem Linguae, I've been keeping a half-eye on New pages patrol/Coordination#Phab list (and T310974) — I appreciate the effort in organising all of this. Is there anything I (solely in my volunteer capacity) can do to help? I agree with Kudpung above that phab can be a little jargon-heavy at times, so if there's anything I can do to help in that regard too, please don't hesitate to let me know — TNT ( talk • she/her) 21:52, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

Can you weigh in [ https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T310974 here}? You're not on the notifications list so until you post something you won;t know what's going on. There seems to some problem about wanting to NOINDEX all pages in all namespaces. They don't seem to understand that what we're asking for is mainspace only for indefinite NOINDEX until patrolled. Probably only going back no more than 6 months of the back end of the queue because with the backlog that will always exist there is no chance that the reviewers will be able to work through years of unpatrolled articles. Fortunately it's only (fairly) recently that the feed has mutated into a stream of junk from many non L1 English speaking regions. It's not, and never has been NPP's remit to patrol every one of the 54 mio non article pages. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 05:46, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello. Regarding the title, at the top of the Talk page is a banner saying: "This page is not a forum for general discussion about Anfal campaign. Any such comments may be removed or refactored. Please limit discussion to improvement of this article. You may wish to ask factual questions about Anfal campaign at the Reference desk."
A comment made that is irrelevant to the discussion, and is making personal attacks and framing a slanderous narrative by a user who has harassed me in the past (some people can't get over grudges when they get proven wrong) has absolutely no relevance to improving the article. If you reverted the edit because this is something should be reported to ANI, then I will do so. This user has a bit of a track record [2] and is often asked to stop attacking users like in this recent diff. [3]
Could you please explain why such a comment which the banner at the Talk page says to remove is expected to stay?
Thanks! Saucysalsa30 ( talk) 03:26, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
Saucysalsa30, removing information on the mass killings is really bad.I think that one was civil enough to stay. I also believe that there are other sub-par behaviors occurring on that page, from multiple parties, but that is all above my pay grade. I will stay out of it.

Please don't tell anyone :) but I use Twinkle for deletion nominations when reviewing (mostly out of habit I guess). I noticed yesterday that a CSD on a redirect caused it to be marked reviewed. I'm sure you can quickly identify why. MB 15:07, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
#REDIRECT [[abc]]
, and therefore the page no longer redirects. Hope that makes sense. –
Novem Linguae (
talk) 18:15, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
If the CSD is declined and the tag is removed, it flips back to an redirect which causes it show up as a new redirect, right?It remains marked as patrolled in this case. Only redirect to article causes an unpatrol (unless you are autopatrolled). Article to redirect does not cause an unpatrol. So allowing placing a CSD tag to autopatrol the resulting article is a security bug and is worth fixing. Thank you for reporting it. Imagine this scenario: user creates redirect, autopatrolled patroller CSDs it, user removes CSD. We now have a patrolled redirect that likely needs deleting but that may not receive any additional scrutiny.
Your secret is safe with me too MB, but yesterday I came across something odd regarding redirects/recreations that I asked someone else about rather than bothering you two. I'm basically concerned that users who 'appear' to be the creators take the credit for it in their page creation log, especially when providing content is the least of their interests. Please you and NL take a look, it's a surely a glitch that can be remedied and prevent poor quality pages escaping into Googleland, and the wrong editors getting the credit for the mass creation of them. But it's complicated... Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 01:20, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Here is something that seems inconsistent. When reviewing/patrolling redirects, I use the curation tool. If I want to add a Rcat (and its one Twinkle knows about), I click on the Tag/Twinkle tab. I add the Rcat and mark it reviewed at the same time by clicking those two choices, then hit "Submit Query" one time (done in four clicks). If the redirect is auto-created from a page move, it already has a Rcat (R from move). If I go to Twinkle to add a second Rcat, there is no choice to mark it reviewed, so I have to go back to the curation tool and review it there (two steps, five clicks total). Not a big deal, I can still move pretty fast. But still, why is the option to review these redirects missing? It seems to be related to the move. MB 03:33, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi! I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong because my NewPagesFeed doesn't look any different? Diff 1 Diff 2. I could be making just a silly mistake, so I figured I would ask someone who knows javascript because I don't. Happy Editing-- IAm Chaos 06:36, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I just made some significant changes to User:Terasail/Edit Request Tool. Since you have the tool active, I am informing you of this since it may affect you. To open the tool you will now have to click the "respond" button. The tool will load a similar interface as before. There is now a live preview of the response. These changes might have introduced some bugs so if you have any concerns / suggestions or run into problems please leave a note at User talk:Terasail/Edit Request Tool Thanks, Terasail [✉️] 15:20, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi. Do we have an update on what's happening? It was thrown out of Phab because someone decided it needed yet another (3rd) RfC although the pevious ones had clear consesus. Apparently one was started at the VP but I can't find it. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 06:57, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
Since we have no coordinator, my thought is to divide up the work into many smaller slices. We need someone to stay on top of the bug fixes and enhancement requests. Since you are sort-of doing that already, can we make it official and list you this person? I think someone has done this in the past, and made suggestions on behalf of NPP at the yearly wishlist or whatever that is called. But I don't see anything presently organized. The Suggestion page has a lot of links to Phab tasks, but I know that is not complete. The one discussed today about AFDs not working (238025) isn't there at all.
I would like to see a simple table of all the NPP requests, prioritized (from our perspective), like this:
Phab | Opened | Description | Bug | Priority | Status | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
310974 | 06-2022 | Extend No-index time | N | High | Open | |
238025 | 11-2019 | Opening AFDs | Y | Low | Open | Workaround - Twinkle |
You can probably get something similar out of Phabricator, but without our priority (I'm not really sure if they would all be categorized as NPP/Page Curation or maybe some are just tagged as Growth Team?) Regardless, it would be better to have a easily accessible list here. We can't really start arguing that NPP needs more developer support without having a good idea of what's been requested. Can you take this on? MB 04:11, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
Can you please confirm that T311347 is indeed carried out and operational? After all these years I still can't cut through the dev jargon at Phab. BTW, I'm very much in favour of weighing the AFD bug kind of high. I spent many hours on discussion and costly (my cost) face-to-face meetings on the development that went into PageTriage and its 2018 face-lift. I would like to leave NPP with the best set of tools ever and I don't relish the thought that my time was wasted. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 09:34, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
I'm full of admiration for people who do it. Self taught, I can just about get my head round some HTML and very basic Regex. I come from an era in which information technology as we know it today, was still pure science fiction and 'computer' meant ENIAC. Aklapper, despite his claims to the contrary, is indeed the sole voice of authority at Phab, and for him to assume that all contributors to Wikipedia are all competent programmers and scriptwriters is an insult to my intelligence and anyone else of my generation. I still contend most strongly that the WMF should provide the ongoing support and required upgrades for the applications they develop. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 02:44, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
Hey Novem Linguae, I've been keeping a half-eye on New pages patrol/Coordination#Phab list (and T310974) — I appreciate the effort in organising all of this. Is there anything I (solely in my volunteer capacity) can do to help? I agree with Kudpung above that phab can be a little jargon-heavy at times, so if there's anything I can do to help in that regard too, please don't hesitate to let me know — TNT ( talk • she/her) 21:52, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

Can you weigh in [ https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T310974 here}? You're not on the notifications list so until you post something you won;t know what's going on. There seems to some problem about wanting to NOINDEX all pages in all namespaces. They don't seem to understand that what we're asking for is mainspace only for indefinite NOINDEX until patrolled. Probably only going back no more than 6 months of the back end of the queue because with the backlog that will always exist there is no chance that the reviewers will be able to work through years of unpatrolled articles. Fortunately it's only (fairly) recently that the feed has mutated into a stream of junk from many non L1 English speaking regions. It's not, and never has been NPP's remit to patrol every one of the 54 mio non article pages. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 05:46, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

As a coord for NPP you might find this useful. I am no longer an admin so I can't give it to you but there are admins at WP:PERM who understand NPP. It would probably help to mention that you are a volunteer MediaWiki dev. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 21:38, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

The page curation tool hasn’t been showing up for a while now. I thought it would with time, but it hasn’t. It stopped working after it glitched when I used it to nominate an article for deletion (which didn't work right, btw). Any help? Any suggestions?

Hey Novem! I came across this discussion and was wondering if you would like to test this bot to promote Title (album) from GT to FT. Although I'm not sure if I should have approached Bryanrutherford0 first so I'll add a ping for him as well.-- N Ø 17:20, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
Hi, I'm Curbon7. I wanted to let you know that I saw the page you reviewed, Gloydius lateralis, and have marked it as unreviewed. If you have any questions, please ask them on my talk page. Thank you.

User:Lourdes/PageCuration.js located at User:Kudpung/vector.js is what does this. I don't think PageTriage adds any Special:NewPagesFeed links. sorry for undo, feel free to revert
, that's the script and it does what it says. Lourdes wrote it. I couldn't write a script to save my life 😉 , but you're the expert.

Hello. Regarding the title, at the top of the Talk page is a banner saying: "This page is not a forum for general discussion about Anfal campaign. Any such comments may be removed or refactored. Please limit discussion to improvement of this article. You may wish to ask factual questions about Anfal campaign at the Reference desk."
A comment made that is irrelevant to the discussion, and is making personal attacks and framing a slanderous narrative by a user who has harassed me in the past (some people can't get over grudges when they get proven wrong) has absolutely no relevance to improving the article. If you reverted the edit because this is something should be reported to ANI, then I will do so. This user has a bit of a track record [2] and is often asked to stop attacking users like in this recent diff. [3]
Could you please explain why such a comment which the banner at the Talk page says to remove is expected to stay?
Thanks! Saucysalsa30 ( talk) 03:26, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
Saucysalsa30, removing information on the mass killings is really bad.I think that one was civil enough to stay. I also believe that there are other sub-par behaviors occurring on that page, from multiple parties, but that is all above my pay grade. I will stay out of it.

Please don't tell anyone :) but I use Twinkle for deletion nominations when reviewing (mostly out of habit I guess). I noticed yesterday that a CSD on a redirect caused it to be marked reviewed. I'm sure you can quickly identify why. MB 15:07, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
#REDIRECT [[abc]]
, and therefore the page no longer redirects. Hope that makes sense. –
Novem Linguae (
talk) 18:15, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
If the CSD is declined and the tag is removed, it flips back to an redirect which causes it show up as a new redirect, right?It remains marked as patrolled in this case. Only redirect to article causes an unpatrol (unless you are autopatrolled). Article to redirect does not cause an unpatrol. So allowing placing a CSD tag to autopatrol the resulting article is a security bug and is worth fixing. Thank you for reporting it. Imagine this scenario: user creates redirect, autopatrolled patroller CSDs it, user removes CSD. We now have a patrolled redirect that likely needs deleting but that may not receive any additional scrutiny.
Your secret is safe with me too MB, but yesterday I came across something odd regarding redirects/recreations that I asked someone else about rather than bothering you two. I'm basically concerned that users who 'appear' to be the creators take the credit for it in their page creation log, especially when providing content is the least of their interests. Please you and NL take a look, it's a surely a glitch that can be remedied and prevent poor quality pages escaping into Googleland, and the wrong editors getting the credit for the mass creation of them. But it's complicated... Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 01:20, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Your NPP work is extraordinaire, |
Recently you rejected my submission for the PLM 020 7001-7005 article draft siting insufficient sources. Having taken your advice to search for extra references I’ve updated the article with extra data and accompanying sources and would like to now if the drafts current state is sufficient for it to be accepted? I am very new to creating articles so I don’t really now if this question is proper procedure or not.

Here is something that seems inconsistent. When reviewing/patrolling redirects, I use the curation tool. If I want to add a Rcat (and its one Twinkle knows about), I click on the Tag/Twinkle tab. I add the Rcat and mark it reviewed at the same time by clicking those two choices, then hit "Submit Query" one time (done in four clicks). If the redirect is auto-created from a page move, it already has a Rcat (R from move). If I go to Twinkle to add a second Rcat, there is no choice to mark it reviewed, so I have to go back to the curation tool and review it there (two steps, five clicks total). Not a big deal, I can still move pretty fast. But still, why is the option to review these redirects missing? It seems to be related to the move. MB 03:33, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
