This discussion is relevant to this task.

In short, this task should treat these as 'Nominated for deletion' now instead of 'redirects'. Because the newly fixed 'Nominated for deletion' section is separate from 'redirects' and we would prefer not to have them in the 'all others' category, they should instead be moved to the 'Nominated for deletion' type category.

@Insertcleverphrasehere @joeroe Can you confirm that the task description accurately reflects what the need is? Thank you.

Yes. That is correct.

Change 507913 had a related patch set uploaded (by Samwilson; owner: Samwilson):
[mediawiki/extensions/PageTriage@master] Treat RfD pages as AfDs instead of redirects

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/507913

This is ready to merge, but we've not done so yet because it needs to be QA'd before going out with the train. Will merge next week.

@Niharika @joeroe @Insertcleverphrasehere Just to check I have understood the problem and that you are happy with our solution:

After T157046#5155012:

1. Article is redirect.
2. Article gets marked RfD (either via the Curation Toolbar or by adding "{{subst:Rfd-NPF}}" to article).
3. Article no longer counts as a redirect; does not appear in NewPagesFeed when filtering for redirects (this was the case previously).
4. Article appears in NewPagesFeed only when filtering for "Nominated for deletion", with black Trash icon. On the article, the Curation Toolbar displays the Trash icon in black.

Would you also like the "Redirects" which appears next to "Showing" to be renamed "Redirects (not RfD)" as well?

Yes that sounds right.

@Niharika Is there a reason these entries appear with articles rather htan redirects when sorting the queue?

Can you clarify that a bit?

I could but it was a stupid comment. Please disregard.

@Barkeep49 Hey -- I'm Ilana, the new PM for the Community Tech team. It looks like this work was deployed to production. Can you verify that it works as expected? Thanks!

Yes it does. Pleasure to virtually meet you @ifried

@Barkeep49 Thank you (and nice to virtually meet you, too!).
