Dear RC patrollers and vandal hunters,
This is a desperate plea for help!
The few people who work at "Articles For Creation" are getting overworked.
They almost can't keep up with the new requests and a lot of dubious
submission are left
with no idea how to handle them. Even worse, occasionally
"Wikipedia:Articles for creation"
and "Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Today" get blanked by a newbie who
isn't reading the
instructions. Unfortunately, those blankings aren't always discovered in
time, and this way
a lot of good submissions are missed. Once they get archived, they're almost
never touched.
Why not set up a system where each article proposed for creation
exists as a separate page. And there could be a special page set up
which points to each of them. This special page could list the date
and time created, the name of the proposed page, the number of bytes
of the page, and the username or IP address of the proposer.
My Tasks extension handles requests for creation, with the date the task
was submitted, and the IP of the submitter. Tasks can be sorted by
creation date, and assigned to people. Each task can have its own
discussion page.
Besides, it could handle requests for deletion, stub notes
(automatically categorized), etc.
Currently, however, it is sitting unmaintained in the extensions module,
since noone gives a s**t. Business as usual.
