Speed of reviewing
[edit]Hey Blethering Scot. First of all, thank you for your efforts at reviewing at NPR. I am however concerned about your speed of reviewing, especially now that I see Wikipedia:Database reports/Top new article reviewers stating that you completed 2,023 reviews over the past 24 hours and you've apparently reviewed more than User:DannyS712 bot III over the last 30 days. 2,000 reviews in a day is not a reasonable rate and it's a rate that suggests proper caution and care may not have been given. So, could you slow it down and try to be a bit more thorough? Also, if you're reviewing that many redirects you should consider nominating users to have their redirects auto reviewed at WT:RAL. It's one of our best methods to help keep the backlog down and focus reviewer attention where it should be. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:53, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, first of all if you look deeper I very much review the easy ones, and have left any that require more thought, or deeper investigation. There is a huge amount that are creating a backlog for a backlog sake. Re RAL I was actually typing to find out yesterday if it was portable to nominate people, rather than apply themselves, but couldn’t find it. Whilst I do understand your concern about speed, and I’ll take that on board, but I’m not concerned about missing any. During September I was planning on looking at the more difficult ones.

- Even if you believe you're being careful and thorough, I don't think 2k in a day is a reasonable, and I think others would agree. Either way, as you said, you've heard my concern. Anyways, WT:RAL is the place to nominate others for redirect autopatrol. I did so I believe for 100+ people before I became an admin and started managing the list directly instead. The general criteria is 100+ problem free redirects. If they have redirects deleted at RfD they're less likely to be eligible, unless it was a one off or there's been a lot of good work creating redirects since then. I call CSD G6 (technical deletions), G7 (self request), and G8 (target was deleted) no-fault deletions, where we don't hold it against the person being nominated. R3 deletions (implausible typos or misnomers) are something we will consider as a point against their judgement when considering whether to have their redirects autopatrolled. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:08, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oh, and a good way to check how many redirects they've created is this link at XTools. Make sure to select the "only include redirects option"! Hey man im josh (talk) 13:12, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Redirect autopatrol list
[edit]- Hi both of you. I know it may be against protocol to specifically ask to be nominated, but both of you have reviewed/patrolled my own redirects at least dozens of times each in the past. Maybe one of you could nominate me for this? I did not know it was even available until @Hey man im josh just mentioned it above. If this is out of place, please let me know and ignore my request.

- You can self-request at Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect autopatrol list#Requests if you want :) –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:32, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
- You actually are already on the list @Iljhgtn, the bot is just down at the moment it seems. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:26, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- Would I get a notification from the bot if it reviews a redirect? I have never seen one before if so. Iljhgtn (talk) 15:14, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Iljhgtn: You will unless you turn notifications for reviews off in your preferences. I only added you yesterday or the day before I believe. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:16, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- I see. What is the name of this bot so I recognize it? Iljhgtn (talk) 15:17, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- User:DannyS712 bot III. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:19, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- That one only recognizes very select redirects I believe and not all of them created by someone on the list, correct? Iljhgtn (talk) 15:21, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- It does very select types of redirects for everyone, but it also does all of them created by someone on the list. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:22, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- I understand now. Thank you for clarifying. Iljhgtn (talk) 15:25, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
