Still have to manually tabulate? Strong disincentive for high-scoring reviewers to participate.

[edit]

I hate to be "that guy", but as mentioned during the last drive, if the next drive requires manual tabulation of score, I'm out. I tallied up over 700 reviews last Drive, which cost me quite a few hours that could've been better used actually reviewing more articles. I actually had around 1000 reviews or more, but since I was in firm 2d place and out of reach of 1st there was no incentive to tabulate more of them. I genuinely think the burden of hand-jamming the score takes a lot of the incentive to compete for the awards, so there's no way I'm reviewing another 1000+ articles this next drive unless we have some kind of 'bot or coding which can do the tabulation.

If I knew code I would do create a bot, but I don't. Maybe contact a user who has created bots in the past a ask if they would be interested in creating one for the drive(s).--Dom497 (talk) 15:23, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I answer this question more than Mojang answers the OptiFine cape question. It will eventually be implemented in the script, I just don't know when. --Nathan2055talk - contribs 19:56, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I just finished a script that does just this – check out the beta at User:The Anonymouse/January 2013 Backlog Elimination Drive data. The Anonymouse (talk • contribs) 09:23, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Totals

[edit]

Under the totals, do I need to show how many I have reviewed; like the last drive? –Jakob 23:15, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
