[WikiEN-l] More efficient process suggestions

Sat Nov 8 09:30:58 UTC 2003

Add [[random short pages]] and [[random pages with one editor]] to random pages options.

Add page quality 0-9 checkboxes and [[random tagged as needing attention]] 0-9 choices. Delete [[pages needing attention]]. Also part of the move to working out what 1.0 should include.

Same for cleanup.

Add automatic deletion of pages at quality 0.5 or below for 6 months and [[list of pages at quality 0.5 or lower, oldest to newest]].

Now delete VfD and use disputes over articles instead.

Add [[needs wikification]] and [[needs copyedit]] checkboxes with their searches.

Technical notes. All of the quality types need a score in the article and a table of aricle/ tagType/ rankGiven/ dateGiven values for each contributor. Article score is mean of adjusted scores which count. Scores count for three months only. Scores stored multiplied by 1000 to avoid floats if the database likes that better. Or not stored at all if select sum() where / select count() where is fast enough. Adjust as required for efficiency. Need to fctor in hit counts at some point, so well used pages get kept even if nobody ranks them.
