Description

It is now possible for an article to be moved to draftspace without a redirect being created. What this means is that the article at the original location is deleted and the report is marked as resolved by the Community Tech bot and is removed from the queue, even though it still exists in draftspace. I have no way of knowing how many valid reports are slipping through unchecked in this manner. The issue was discovered by DanCherek, who described the event like this:

" [Small Farmers’ Agribusiness Consortium]] was flagged in CopyPatrol as a potential copyright violation, but was draftified before anyone dealt with it (now at [[Draft:Small Farmers’ Agribusiness Consortium]]). The cross-namespace redirect from mainspace was deleted, so the Community Tech bot marked the report as resolved [https://copypatrol.toolforge.org/en/?id=73796705]. However, the original text remains in draftspace and was not re-logged in CopyPatrol, presumably because there was no new text added, just a page move."

Is there a way we can ensure that articles moved to draftspace do get checked? Thanks.

I suppose Community Tech bot can check the move log to see if was moved to the draftspace, and if so, update the report accordingly to point to the new location, and refrain from marking it was reviewed.

It could also query using the revid to find the new title if it isn't deleted.

This issue should not be occurring since T333724. The functionality to auto close reports will be moved to the bot, which will update for moves.
