Request for information on WP1.0 web tool

Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.

We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

New article on "Quaker decision-making"

In the hopes that some people still watch this, despite the project being classed as inactive, I thought I should let people know that Quaker decision-making has been created (not by me), and I started a discussion on the talk page regarding the title. SamBC(talk) 11:52, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

User script to detect unreliable sources

Main page: User:Headbomb/unreliable

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like

• John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.)

and turns it into something like

• John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.

It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.

The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Proposed for deletion (PROD): Sweden Yearly Meeting

FYI, the article Sweden Yearly Meeting has been proposed for deletion (WP:PROD). The first sentences summarize the subject this way:

• "Sweden Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends, or simply Sweden Yearly Meeting or SYM, is the organizing body for Quaker groups and meetings in Sweden."

The nominator wrote this summary of their concerns:

• "No evidence of any notability (nor any claim to it as far as I can see), lacks independent indepth reliable sources."

If you agree or disagree with deletion, there are instructions on the deletion notice for what to do. Thanks, A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 00:25, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
