There's a new bot to evaluate articles
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Please provide the following information.

  • The WP1 bot that evaluates every single article on their talk page (Quality, Importance, etc.) has been entirely revamped.
  • Which topic type does the blog post fall under? ''Announcement of a change related to technology''
  • Audience: everyone who ever looked at a talk page, but mostly Wikipedians (editors)
  • Assistance: minor copyediting
  • Does your post need to be published by a certain date? No

@srodlund Should I post the content here, or the google doc we sent @srishakatux will be enough as a working document?

Event Timeline

Thank you for submitting! I have access to the google doc, so I will read it and leave suggestions for refinement or copyediting there.

@StephaneKiwix

I really like this post and learned a lot from reading it! Thanks for sharing it with us for the blog!

I'm done copyediting. I mostly made some changes to grammar and style, and added some additional breaks. I did change a few sentences for better readability. Feel free to accept or decline the changes/suggestions.

Do you have an image you have in mind for the feature image for this? You can learn more here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_technical_blog_editorial_guidelines#Images_used_in_your_post

If not, I can pick one.

@srodlund Thanks! I've accepted 99% of your suggestions. Illustration will come tomorrow (Friday) EoB.

@StephaneKiwix Great! The illustration looks good! I'm now going to move the draft over to the blog for final formatting and publication this week (likely tomorrow 3 Nov). Will let you know when it is posted.

I just published this: https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2020/11/03/this-bot-is-judging-you-heres-how-we-made-it-better-at-it/

Let me know if you see anything that needs to be changed. I'll also send out announcements to our Twitter channels @mediawiki and @Wikimediatech.
