RFA2024 update: phase I concluded, phase II begins

edit

Hi there! Phase I of the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:

See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron (talk), via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

ProcBot: Main Page snapshots failure

edit

ProcBot's task "Main Page snapshots" failed to run per the configuration specified at Wikipedia:Bot activity monitor/Configurations. Detected only 0 edits in the last 1 day, whereas at least 1 was expected. If/when the issue is fixed, please change the section title (e.g. append " - Fixed") or remove this section completely. When that is done, this notice will be reposted if the bot task is still broken or is re-broken. If your bot is behaving as expected, then you may want to modify the task configuration instead. Or to unsubscribe from bot failure notifications, remove the |notify= parameter from the {{/task}} template. Thanks! – SDZeroBot (talk) 11:20, 22 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've manually created snapshots for yesterday and today. Voice of Clam (talk) 15:58, 23 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Telegraph close ?

edit

It's been a while since our paths crossed and it seems you've largely been away from Wikipedia for a while. Welcome back. Is there a reason you wrote about plural closers for the Telegraph RfC when it was closed by a single person (S Marshall)? Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 03:14, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hey Barkeep. Thanks! Things have been busy recently but I try to pop my head in when I can. No, that particular instance was a poorly placed apostrophe. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 03:39, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Normally I wouldn't ask but given the previous close for that discussion I was just curious if you were lumping Compassionate in with S Marshall. Glad that wasn't the case. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 04:01, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello ProcrastinatingReader, thank you for your close of the close review. It must have taken significant effort. Appreciate it! starship.paint (RUN) 10:38, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

same as the rest, thanks for closing such a contentious discussion, which had already eaten two other closers alive, in a way that seems to me completely unobjectionable!--Licks-rocks (talk) 11:39, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

User:ProcBot purge task

edit

Hey, can you reactive the purge task? I've added a category to the one off list at User:ProcBot/PurgeList. Gonnym (talk) 11:39, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Gonnym: Forgot to reply here, but this should be done. (Let me know if you think it didn't work properly?) In future, it should automatically respond to one-time category purge requests on that page. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 13:57, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, it finished. Gonnym (talk) 06:55, 2 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hey @ProcrastinatingReader, can the bot can purge modules and can it purge deleted modules? Gonnym (talk) 14:18, 24 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Deleted ones I don't think would work.
For non-deleted, let's see... I used to have old code which purged transclusions of templates. It's disabled (and I'd have written the code for it differently today), but I can re-enable it, and it might work mostly as-is for modules. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 20:02, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
I think it's not immediately going to work, so I've disabled template transclusion purges for now. I'll need to look into it a bit more, but not sure when I'll have time in the immediate future. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 14:13, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
OK, thanks for letting me know. Gonnym (talk) 14:21, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
