Announce multilingual revert risk model for Automoderator at wikis already using Automoderator
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Per the parent task, we are just about ready to launch support for the multilingual revert risk in Automoderator. We need to communicate with the wikis supported by this model that already have Automoderator deployed to let them know it is available and worth trying out.

Hi - I want to let you know about an upcoming feature update to Automoderator ([LOCAL NAME]) which will cause it to stop working on your Wikimedia project until it is turned back on by an administrator. Please read on to find out what steps are required.

On Wednesday, November 19th we will be rolling out an update to Automoderator which will enable you to choose one of two machine learning models to power the software. Currently, Automoderator uses the [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Language-agnostic_revert_risk|Language-agnostic Revert Risk model]] on all Wikipedias. This update enables you to instead use the [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Multilingual_revert_risk|Multilingual Revert Risk model]] to determine which edits should be reverted. We believe that this model should perform better - it will revert more edits with a lower false positive rate.

For technical reasons, when this change is deployed, the configuration page for Automoderator will move from [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutoModerator]] to [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutomoderatorMultilingual]]. As a result, Automoderator will turn off, until the new configuration page is set up by an administrator. The old configuration can still be viewed at [[MediaWiki:AutoModeratorConfig.json]], so it can be used as a starting point for reconfiguring the software. This configuration page can be safely deleted when you no longer need it.

Because the Multilingual model performance varies more by language as compared to the language-agnostic model, the configuration is slightly different, if you choose to use it. Instead of selecting one of a few predefined thresholds, administrators can instead define the threshold precisely, as a number. This number can be any value between 0.85 and 1. We recommend that you start with a high value (for example 0.99), and reduce it over time as you evaluate the false positive rate. If you would like to access some data on past edits and their multilingual revert risk scores to help you define a threshold to use, please visit [[:mw:Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing|Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing on MediaWiki]].

If you would like to continue using the current configuration, that's not a problem - Automoderator still supports the same language-agnostic model that you've been using until now. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Event Timeline

@Samwalton9-WMF could you please keep me in the loop about timing for switching over to the other model? I don't think you need anything from us, but I just want to make sure we're available in case of issues

This message would be sent to the following wikis, whose language is supported by the multilingual model: tr, id, bn, az, zh, es.

uk.wiki needs custom communication because they turned Automoderator off after reviewing its false positive rate with the language-agnostic model.

af and vi wikis do not require communication as Automoderator will continue to function there as before.

@BAPerdana-WMF @Venuslui @Dogu @Superzerocool @Yahya @Nemoralis Hi all! We are ready to deploy an update to Automoderator that will enable you to optionally select a new (hopefully better) machine learning model to power its reverts. Unfortunately, this will cause Automoderator to turn off when the configuration is deployed, requiring you to reconfigure it. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Could you help me by translating the above text, ready to post on your wiki's relevant noticeboards, so that the community is aware? We haven't set the date in stone yet - I want to wait to hear back from you first, but I think ideally we would schedule this for next week or the week after. Please let me know if you have any questions.

In Spanish:

Hola, les quiero informar sobre una próxima actualización a Automoderador que provocará que deje de funcionar en este proyecto de Wikimedia hasta que sea reactivado por un administrador. A continuación se indican los pasos necesarios a seguir.

El día 19 de noviembre se implementará una actualización a Automoderador que permitirá elegir uno de los dos modelos de aprendizaje de máquina que hacen funcionar Automoderador. Actualmente, Automoderador utiliza el [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Language-agnostic_revert_risk|modelo agnóstico de idioma (Language-agnostic Revert Risk model)]] en todas las Wikipedias. Esta actualización les permitirá usar el [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Multilingual_revert_risk|modelo de múltiples idiomas (Multilingual Revert Risk model)]] para determinar cuáles ediciones deberán ser revertidas. Creemos que este modelo debería tener mejores resultados, lo que se traduce en más ediciones revertidas con una menor tasa de falsos positivos.

Por razones técnicas, cuando el cambio se implemente, la página de configuración de Automoderador se moverá desde [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutoModerator]] a [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutomoderatorMultilingual]]. Como resultado, Automoderador será apagado hasta que la nueva página de configuración sea establecida por un administrador. La página antigua se podrá consultar en [[MediaWiki:AutoModeratorConfig.json]], por lo que podrá ser utilizada como un punto inicial para reconfigurar el software. Esta página puede ser eliminada con seguridad una vez que ya no la necesiten.

Debido a que el desempeño del modelo de múltiples idiomas varía más entre idiomas, comparado con el modelo agnóstico al idioma, la configuración es ligeramente diferente si eligen usarlo. En lugar de seleccionar unas pocas sensibilidades predefinidas, los administradores pueden definir con precisión las sensibilidades, ya que deben ingresar un número. Este número puede ser cualquier valor entre 0,85 y 1. Recomendamos comenzar con un valor alto (por ejemplo, 0,99) y reducirlo a lo largo del tiempo para evaluar los falsos positivos. Si desean acceder a algunos datos de las ediciones del pasado y su puntaje evaluado por el modelo para ayudarles a establecer estos parámetros, pueden visitar [[:mw:Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing|Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing on MediaWiki]].

Si desean seguir usando la configuración actual, no hay problema; Automoderador aún soporta el mismo modelo agnóstico al idioma que se ha utilizado hasta ahora. Si poseen alguna pregunta o inquietud, no duden en hacérmelo saber.

Salam. Sizi məlumatlandırmaq istəyirik ki, Avtomoderatora yaxın zamanda ediləcək yeniləmə nəticəsində bu alət sizin Vikimedia layihənizdə inzibatçı tərəfindən yenidən aktivləşdirilənədək işləməyəcək. Lazımi addımlar barədə aşağıda məlumat verilib.

19 noyabr tarixində Avtomoderatora ediləcək yeniləmə nəticəsində proqram təminatını idarə etmək üçün iki maşın öyrənmə modelindən birini seçmək mümkün olacaq. Hal-hazırda Avtomoderator bütün Vikipediyalarda [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Language-agnostic_revert_risk|dildən asılı olmayan geri qaytarma riski modelindən]] istifadə edir. Yeni yeniləmə ilə siz bunun əvəzinə [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Multilingual_revert_risk|çoxdilli geri qaytarma riski modelindən]] istifadə edə biləcəksiniz. Biz hesab edirik ki, bu model daha yaxşı nəticə verəcək, yəni daha çox redaktəni daha az xəta ilə geri qaytaracaq.

Texniki səbəblərdən bu dəyişiklik tətbiq ediləndə Avtomoderatorun konfiqurasiya səhifəsi [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutoModerator]] ünvanından [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutomoderatorMultilingual]] ünvanına köçürüləcək. Bunun nəticəsində Avtomoderator söndürüləcək və yalnız yeni konfiqurasiya səhifəsi inzibatçı tərəfindən yaradıldıqdan sonra yenidən aktiv olacaq. Köhnə konfiqurasiya hələ də [[MediaWiki:AutoModeratorConfig.json]] səhifəsində mövcud olacaq, beləliklə onu yenidən tənzimləmək üçün başlanğıc nöqtəsi kimi istifadə etmək mümkündür. Artıq ehtiyac olmadıqda bu konfiqurasiya səhifəsini silmək olar.

Çoxdilli modelin performansı dildən asılı olaraq daha çox dəyişdiyi üçün onun konfiqurasiyası bir qədər fərqlidir. Əgər bu modeli seçsəniz, əvvəlki kimi bir neçə hazır həddən birini seçmək əvəzinə, həddi dəqiq şəkildə, ədədi dəyər kimi təyin edə bilərsiniz. Bu dəyər 0.85 ilə 1 arasında istənilən ədəd ola bilər. Başlanğıc üçün yüksək dəyər (məsələn, 0.99) seçməyi, daha sonra xəta göstəricisini qiymətləndirdikcə bu dəyəri tədricən azaltmağı tövsiyə edirik. Əgər keçmiş redaktələr və onların çoxdilli geri qaytarma risk göstəriciləri barədə məlumat əldə etmək istəyirsinizsə, [[:mw:Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing|MediaWiki-də Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing]] səhifəsini oxuyun.

Hazırkı konfiqurasiyadan istifadə etməyə davam etmək istəsəniz, bu da mümkündür – Avtomoderator indiyə qədər istifadə etdiyiniz dildən asılı olmayan modeli dəstəkləməkdə davam edir. Hər hansı sualınız və ya narahatlığınız olarsa, mənə bildirin.

In Indonesian:

Halo, rekan-rekan kontributor!

Berhubung fitur Automoderator di Wikipedia bahasa Indonesia akan diperbarui dalam waktu dekat, maka fitur tersebut akan dimatikan hingga diaktifkan secara manual oleh pengurus. Pada 19 November 2025, kami akan menerapkan dua opsi yang bisa Anda pilih terkait model pembelajaran mesin sebagai inti dari fitur Automoderator. Saat ini, Automoderator menggunakan [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Language-agnostic_revert_risk|model pendekatan pengembalian yang tidak terikat bahasa]] (penjelasan dalam bahasa Inggris) yang telah diaktifkan di seluruh proyek Wikipedia. Melalui pembaruan ini, kami menambahkan satu opsi lagi yaitu menggunakan [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Multilingual_revert_risk|model pendekatan pengembalian berbasis multibahasa]] (penjelasan dalam bahasa Inggris) yang menurut hemat kami jauh lebih baik daripada model sebelumnya.

Untuk alasan teknis, ketika perubahan ini diterapkan maka halaman konfigurasi Automoderator akan berpindah dari [[Istimewa:Pengaturan_komunitas/AutoModerator]] ke [[Istimewa:Pengaturan_komunitas/AutomoderatorMultilingual]]. Alhasil, Automoderator akan dinonaktifkan hingga halaman konfigurasi baru tersebut diaktifkan oleh pengurus. Data konfigurasi yang lama masih dapat dilihat di [[MediaWiki:AutoModeratorConfig.json]], ini dapat digunakan sebagai panduan dalam mengatur ulang fitur Automoderator oleh pengurus. Apabila sudah diterapkan, maka halaman konfigurasi tersebut bisa dihapus.

Selain itu, berhubung model terbaru ini menggunakan beragam bahasa secara sekaligus, sistem konfigurasi fiturnya akan sedikit berbeda. Alih-alih memilih batas ambang pemeriksaan yang telah ditentukan, pengurus dapat mengatur batas ambangnya secara akurat menggunakan angka (antara 0,85 hingga 1). Kami merekomendasikan untuk memulainya dari angka yang paling tinggi (misalnya 0,99) dan secara perlahan dikurangi jika kesalahan pemeriksannya juga kecil. Apabila Anda ingin mengakses data dari model pengembalian berbasis bahasa, silakan kunjungi halaman [[:mw:Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing|Moderator Tools/Automoderator/uji coba multibahasa untuk Automoderator di MediaWiki]].

Jika Anda tetap ingin menggunakan model atau konfigurasi yang lama, tidak masalah! Automoderator tetap mendukung model tersebut hingga saat ini. Apabila ada yang ingin ditanyakan maupun disampaikan, silakan hubungi kami.

Salam.

@Superzerocool @Nemoralis @BAPerdana-WMF Thank you so much! I've just updated my original message to replace [DATE] with Wednesday, November 19th, could you do the same for your messages? Much appreciated.

Here is the Chinese translation!

您好——我希望在此通知您,Automoderator 即將進行一項功能更新,更新後Automoderator將停止在您的維基媒體專案中運行,直至管理員重新啟用為止。請繼續閱讀以了解所需步驟。
11 月 19 日(星期三——,我們將推出 Automoderator 的更新,該更新將允許您選擇兩種機器學習模型之一來驅動軟體。目前,Automoderator 在所有維基百科上均可使用 [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Language-agnostic_revert_risk|語言無關的撤銷風險模型]]。此更新將允許您改用 [[:meta:Machine_learning_modelsMachine_learning_models/Production/Multilingual_revert_risk|多語種撤銷風險模型]] 來確定哪些編輯應該被撤銷。我們相信該模型性能更佳——這將撤銷更多編輯,同時降低誤報率。
由於技術原因,此變更部署後,Automoderator的設定頁面將從 [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutoModerator]] 遷移至 [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutomoderatorMultilingual]]。因此,Automoderator功能將暫時關閉,直到管理員設定新的設定頁面。您仍然可以在 [[MediaWiki:AutoModeratorConfig.json]] 查看舊配置,並將其作為重新配置軟體的起點。不再需要此設定頁面時,您可以安全地將其刪除。
由於多語種模型的表現與語言無關模型相比,會因語言而異,因此如果您選擇使用多語種模型,其配置方式略有不同。管理員無需選擇幾個預先定義的閾值之一,而是可以精確地定義閾值(以數字形式)。該數字可以是 0.85 到 1 之間的任何值。我們建議您從較高的值(例如 0.99)開始,並隨著時間的推移,根據誤報率的評估結果逐步降低閾值。如果您想查看過往編輯記錄及其多語言回滾風險評分的數據,以便設定閾值,請造訪 [[:mw:Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing|Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing on MediaWiki]]。
如果您想繼續使用目前配置,當然可以——Automoderator 仍然支援您之前使用的語言無關的撤銷風險模型。如有任何疑問或顧慮,請隨時與我聯繫。

Done in Spanish :)

Here is the Bangla (bn) translation:

হ্যালো, আমরা আপনাকে জানাতে চাই যে স্বয়ংক্রিয় টহলদারের একটি নতুন ফিচার আপডেট আসছে, যার ফলে আপনার উইকিমিডিয়া প্রকল্পে এটি সাময়িকভাবে বন্ধ থাকবে—এবং একজন প্রশাসককে এটি পুনরায় চালু করতে হবে। কী কী পদক্ষেপ নিতে হবে, তা নিচে বিস্তারিতভাবে উল্লেখ করা হলো।

বুধবার, ১৯ নভেম্বর, আমরা স্বয়ংক্রিয় টহলদারের একটি আপডেট চালু করব। এই আপডেটের মাধ্যমে আপনি সফটওয়্যারটি চালানোর জন্য দুটি মেশিন লার্নিং মডেলের যেকোনো একটি বেছে নিতে পারবেন। বর্তমানে স্বয়ংক্রিয় টহলদার সব উইকিপিডিয়ায় [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Language-agnostic_revert_risk|ভাষা-নিরপেক্ষ রিভার্ট রিস্ক মডেল]] ব্যবহার করছে। এই আপডেটের মাধ্যমে আপনি চাইলে [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Multilingual_revert_risk|বহুভাষিক রিভার্ট রিস্ক মডেল]] ব্যবহার করতে পারবেন, যা নির্ধারণ করবে কোন সম্পাদনা পুনর্বহাল করা উচিত। আমরা মনে করি নতুন এই মডেলটি আগের তুলনায় আরও কার্যকর হবে — এটি আরও বেশি অনাকাঙ্ক্ষিত সম্পাদনা শনাক্ত করতে পারবে এবং ভুলভাবে সম্পাদনা পুনর্বহাল করার সম্ভাবনা কমাবে।

প্রযুক্তিগত কারণে, আপডেট কার্যকর হলে স্বয়ংক্রিয় টহলদারের কনফিগারেশন পেজের অবস্থান পরিবর্তিত হবে। বর্তমান পেজটি [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutoModerator]] থেকে সরিয়ে [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutomoderatorMultilingual]]-এ নেওয়া হবে। এর ফলে আপডেট চালু হওয়ার সাথে সাথেই স্বয়ংক্রিয় টহলদার অচল হয়ে যাবে, যতক্ষণ না কোনো প্রশাসক নতুন কনফিগারেশন পেজ সেটআপ করেন। তারপরেও পুরনো কনফিগারেশন [[MediaWiki:AutoModeratorConfig.json]] পাতায় দেখা যাবে, যা নতুন কনফিগারেশন তৈরির জন্য রেফারেন্স হিসেবে ব্যবহার করা যেতে পারে। নতুন কনফিগারেশন তৈরি সম্পন্ন হলে, পুরনো ফাইলটি নিরাপদে মুছে ফেলা যাবে।

বহুভাষিক মডেলের কনফিগারেশন কিছুটা ভিন্ন, কারণ এই মডেলের কার্যকারিতা ভাষাভেদে পরিবর্তিত হয়। পূর্বের মতো কয়েকটি নির্দিষ্ট থ্রেশহোল্ড থেকে বেছে নেওয়ার পরিবর্তে, প্রশাসক এখন নিজে থেকে একটি মান নির্ধারণ করতে পারবেন — যা ০.৮৫ থেকে ১ এর মধ্যে যেকোনো মান হতে পারে। আমরা প্রাথমিকভাবে তুলনামূলকভাবে উচ্চ মান (যেমন ০.৯৯) দিয়ে শুরু করার পরামর্শ দিচ্ছি, এবং পরে ভুল রিভার্টের হার পর্যবেক্ষণ করে প্রয়োজনে ধীরে ধীরে মান কমানো যেতে পারে।

আপনি যদি অতীত সম্পাদনা এবং তাদের বহুভাষিক রিভার্ট রিস্ক স্কোর সম্পর্কিত তথ্য দেখতে চান, তাহলে [[:mw:Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing|Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing on MediaWiki]] পাতায় যেতে পারেন।

আপনি চাইলে বর্তমান ব্যবহৃত কনফিগারেশন চালিয়ে যেতে পারেন — স্বয়ংক্রিয় টহলদার আগের মতোই ভাষা-নিরপেক্ষ মডেল সমর্থন করবে।

এই পরিবর্তন নিয়ে আপনার যদি কোনো প্রশ্ন বা উদ্বেগ থাকে, অনুগ্রহ করে আমাকে জানান।

Merhaba. Automoderator (Otomoderatör) aracıyla alakalı bir özellik güncellemesi hakkında sizi bilgilendirmek isterim. Bu güncelleme, bir hizmetli tarafından geri açılana dek aracın Wikimedia projenizde çalışmasını durduracak. Lütfen gerekli adımları öğrenmek için okumaya devam edin.

19 Kasım Çarşamba günü Automoderator için yeni bir güncelleme yayınlayacağız. Bu güncelleme sayesinde yazılımı çalıştıracak iki makine öğrenme modelinden birini seçebilir hale geleceksiniz. Mevcut durumda Automoderator, bütün Vikipedilerde  [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Language-agnostic_revert_risk|Dilden bağımsız Geri Alma Riski modeli]]ni kullanıyor. Bu güncelleme ile hangi değişikliklerin geri alınması gerektiğini belirlemek için mevcut modelin yerine [[:meta:Machine_learning_models/Production/Multilingual_revert_risk|Çokdilli Geri Alma Riski modeli]]ni seçebileceksiniz. Bu modelin daha iyi performans göstereceğine ve daha az hatalı pozitif ile daha fazla değişikliği geri alacağına inanıyoruz.

Teknik nedenlerden dolayı bu değişiklik yayınlandığında, Automoderator yapılandırma sayfası [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutoModerator]] sayfasından [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/AutomoderatorMultilingual]] sayfasına taşınacak. Bunun bir sonucu olarak Automoderator, bir hizmetli yeni yapılandırmayı yapana kadar devre dışı kalacak. Eski yapılandırma, yeniden yapılandırma için referans olması adına hala [[MediaWiki:AutoModeratorConfig.json]] sayfasından görülebilir. Eski yapılandırma sayfası, ona ihtiyacınız kalmadığında güvenle silinebilir.

Çokdilli model, dilden bağımsız modele kısayla her dile göre farklı performans gösterdiği için yapılandırması biraz farklıdır. Önceden belirlenmiş eşik noktaları yerine hizmetliler, eşik noktalarını sayı olarak daha hassas ayarlayabilirler. Bu eşik 0.85 ila 1 arasında herhangi bir sayı olabilir. Yüksek bir eşik noktasıyla başlamanızı (örneğin 0.99) ve zamanla, hatalı pozitif oranını ele alarak, düşürmenizi öneriyoruz. Bir eşik belirlemek için geçmiş değişikliklerle alakalı verilere ve çokdilli geri alma risk skoruna erişmek isterseniz lütfen [[:mw:Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing|Moderator Tools/Automoderator/Multilingual testing on MediaWiki]] sayfasını ziyaret edin.

Mevcut yapılandırmayı kullanmaya devam etmek isteyebilirsiniz. Automoderator, bugüne kadar kullandığınız dilden bağımsız modeli desteklemeye devam ediyor. Eğer herhangi bir endişeniz veya sorunuz olursa, lütfen bana haber verin.

@Superzerocool Am I right in thinking that this user is looking for a clarification on the 19th November date?

@Superzerocool Am I right in thinking that this user is looking for a clarification on the 19th November date?

Yes, it was, but another user has remarked the date on the translated message, so it is fine. Another user told about "TAB", but it's internal bureaucracy.

@Superzerocool @TmY_e12 @Yahya @Venuslui @BAPerdana-WMF @Nemoralis Apologies but for unforeseen reasons we need to move this deployment to tomorrow, 20th November. I've left a comment (in English) at each discussion linked above, if you are able to translate it it would be much appreciated.

With apologies for the delay in communicating this to you, for technical reasons (see T400727#11401202) we had to pause this deployment. We need to do a little extra work and then we'll be ready to move forward with deployment again. I'll update when we have more clarity.

Hi all - another quick update from me. Because we're in December, when we have deployment freezes and a lot of WMF staff are off at various points, we think it's best to wait until January before moving forward with this. Expect a new date from me in the new year. Apologies for the delays on this.
