Zoom Interface to help coordinate article improvement[edit]

The interface helps patrollers tag etc, and that's good. But looking at the NNU group of articles, what we needed was some sort of zoom interface that helps put articles through an assembly line. Not just tagging and preliminary checks like notability, etc.

I was thinking of a zoom thing with checkboxes to actually knock the article into shape, like cats, navboxes, cleanup, etc. The way it is now, the articles get tagged for, let's say "inline citations needed", and then it gets added to a list somewhere on the other side of Wikipedia. Editors there see the list and fix up those articles. That's right, isn't it? But I think more is needed for NNU-type projects, where a taskforce improves them in the assembly line method. Is this a dumb plan? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 03:51, 8 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. That's what I'm talking about when I said we need a project version. Could you put something together showing the limitations of what zoom can do and your proposed features for article improvement? I believe you might have a better idea as to what is needed than I do, since you can see it visually in your head. Viriditas (talk) 04:20, 8 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Can I paste this at NNU project talk and include links to zoom interface etc? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 04:42, 8 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Of course. Viriditas (talk) 04:51, 8 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
