Teahouse logo
Hello, SD0001! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:59, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
Hi, sorry, I rashly declined your sandbox before I realised it was yours. Were you testing something? Hope I didn't spoil your experiment! (Feel free to undo my decline, obvs.) Cheers, --DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:02, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
@DoubleGrazing No worries, I was checking how the page showed up in the db replicas - but they are lagged anyway so it wasn't showing up at all! – SD0001 (talk) 07:08, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Drafts subject to five year retention

Hi SD0001,

I understand that you maintain two tools, User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon and User:SDZeroBot/G13 eligible, used to identify drafts that are eligible to be deleted under G13. Following a recent RfC there is now a limited exception to G13; articles deleted under this process are not eligible for G13 until five years have passed since they were draftified.

These articles are denoted by a template, Template:Special draft, which includes a date parameters specifying the month and year they were moved to draft space. It is my intent to also create a monthly maintenance category, but Ambox doesn't seem cooperative of that for articles in draft space, so I am looking into that further.

Would it be possible for you to update these tools to accommodate this? If it would be easier to do this once the monthly maintenance category let me know and I will contact you again when it is.

For an example of an article subject to this, see Draft:Édouard Martin (wrestler).

BilledMammal (talk) 23:32, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

@BilledMammal A single category will be enough for the the bot to support this exception, as it can then use the cl_timestamp (time at which page entered the category) - assuming this will be roughly same as the time of draftification. – SD0001 (talk) 07:16, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
assuming this will be roughly same as the time of draftification It will be; this initial set might be slightly delayed while I learn how to use templates well enough to resolve the category issue, but a few weeks or even a month over the span of five years isn't significant.
Thank you; I'll let you know when I have the categories working. BilledMammal (talk) 08:01, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

New pages patrol needs your help!

New pages awaiting review as of June 30th, 2023.

Hello SD0001,

The New Page Patrol team is sending you this impromptu message to inform you of a steeply rising backlog of articles needing review. If you have any extra time to spare, please consider reviewing one or two articles each day to help lower the backlog. You can start reviewing by visiting Special:NewPagesFeed. Thank you very much for your help.

WP:RFPP/E form broken by CAPTCHA

Hi SD0001, there's an issue with the way MediaWiki:Request-page-protection-form.js currently works: WP:VPT § WP:RFPP/E broken whenever a CAPTCHA is required. Perhaps there's a way to fix this without investing hours of work to get the CAPTCHA transcluded somehow? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 00:10, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon

Hello, SD0001,

Sorry not to post on the bot talk page but I'm not sure how often you check that. Tonight's User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon report is really...odd. There are sometimes problems with formatting this page but I can make an edit and correct the page (it's usually an extra "||" somewhere) but tonight there is just a lot of missing information like dates and times for many of the drafts. Since we go by "last edit", not having this information visible is problematic. Any chance you could run this one again and hopefully get an entire report? Thanks! Liz Read! Talk! 00:55, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello, SD0001,
Well, tonight's page is fine but could you please rerun yesterday's report? It's going to be an enormous hassle for editors and admins to look at every draft's page history to determine the last edit time. I hope you can help us out here. Liz Read! Talk! 00:57, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
Well, you've been active but no response here yet. My last plea, please rerun this G13 Soon report for Feb. 1, 2023 to make Tuesday not an impossible day to handle expiring drafts. Liz Read! Talk! 00:29, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

New pages patrol newsletter

Hello SD0001,

New Page Review article queue, March to September 2023

Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!

October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here.

PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon.

Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.

Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.

Concern regarding User:SD0001/afc-sandbox

Information icon Hello, SD0001. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that User:SD0001/afc-sandbox, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

November Articles for creation backlog drive

Hello SD0001:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 2 months outstanding reviews from the current 4+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 November 2023 through 30 November 2023.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.

There is a backlog of over 2400 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:24, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

Query

Hello, SD0001,

I have a question about User:SDZeroBot. It produced two different reports for G13 soon for May 26th, this one and this report. I think one of them should actually be for May 27th G13 soon so I'm just checking to see if there was a mistake. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 16:58, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

@Liz See Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Olympics#Draftified_Olympian_microstubs. The second one was manually generated after a code update to exclude Olympian microstubs which aren't actually eligible for G13. Both reports are for 26 May but the later one is the correct one. – SD0001 (talk) 18:48, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
I don't understand. Look at the G13 list for Wednesday or Thursday's G13 list. All of those drafts are due to be deleted. Liz Read! Talk! 00:27, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon

Hey, SD0001,

It's been a while! I guess that's because problems so rarely pop up with your bot these days, fortunately.

But for some reason, the User:SDZeroBot/G13 eligible report was issued at the regular time but there is no User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon for December 22nd. But this seems to be the exception as SDZeroBot has been very active otherwise. Can you check and see what the problem is?

I hope, if you celebrate end of the year holidays, then you have a great last week of 2023! Thank you for all of your help this year. Liz Read! Talk! 02:12, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

Not sure why it didn't trigger automatically – could be because of platform congestion. Triggered it manually. Happy holidays to you too! – SD0001 (talk) 06:55, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

SDZeroBot

Hello, SD0001,

First, seasons greetings! I hope you are having a good "last week of 2023" and looking forward to the year ahead.

Secondly, do you know what happened with this report? So much information, including the time of last edit, is missing from this report. Is there any way you could "rerun" the report for July 1st where it would include all of the standard data? Otherwise we will be opening drafts, looking at page histories all day long, repeatedly.

Thanks for any help you can provide. Liz Read! Talk! 02:06, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

@Liz There was a bug – the bot tripped up on encountering the broken syntax in Draft:Typhoon_Usagi_(2007). Fixed. Have re-run it for 1 July 2023. Thanks for pointing it out. – SD0001 (talk) 08:08, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for reruning a few reports. However, since then, could you take a look at this one, in the middle of the page? I can't figure out what some of those entries are, there is no time, no page title, no link...I guess we just ignore them or they will show up later on the G13 eligible list? I've been using SDZeroBot's lists since Sept. 2020 and I've never seen this before! THnks and Happy New Years! Liz Read! Talk! 21:46, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
If you mean the rows after Draft:Adam Wardziński, that's just the medal record in the draft getting accidentally included within its excerpt, probably due to some malformed syntax in the draft. – SD0001 (talk) 05:25, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

Page mover granted

Hello, SD0001. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, move subpages when moving the parent page(s), and move category pages.

Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving a redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.

Useful links:

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! Extraordinary Writ (talk) 04:52, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
