In PageTriage namespaces, pressing "Mark this page as patrolled" should generate a log entry in the "Page curation log"
Closed, ResolvedPublicFeature

Description

Why

  • get all review actions in one log (Page Curation log) instead of spread across two logs (Page Curation log and patrol log)
  • while it is unusual for enwiki new page reviewers to use the "Mark this page as patrolled" button instead of the Page Curation toolbar button, a high-volume reviewer on enwiki, JTtheOG, does, so there are use cases for this

What

  • in addition to its current behavior of generating a log entry in the "Patrol log", pressing "Mark this page as patrolled" should generate a log entry in the "Page curation log". This can be done with a patrol hook. There is already a patrol hook in use in PageTriage somewhere, since pressing "Mark this page as patrolled" makes the appropriate updates to the page's reviewed status in the pagetriage_page table
    • perhaps patrols originating from "Mark this page as patrolled" should be marked somehow in the log. maybe as a log subtype, or with a [[mw:Help:Tag]].
    • should only create this extra log entry in namespaces where PageTriage operates ($wgPageTriageNamespaces)
  • update the documentation at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol#Patrol_versus_review

Notes

  • this ticket assumes enwiki patrol settings:
wgUseRCPatrol: false
wgUseNPPatrol: true
wgUseFilePatrol: true
  • one difference between patrolling and reviewing is that you can only patrol an article once. if you patrol then unreview it, it will not go back to being unpatrolled (although it will be unreviewed). this probably won't affect this ticket, but is useful to know when testing
