Pageswap bug[edit]

Hello,

Your pageswap script fails to run at Draft talk:Move/Talk:Doctor Who (series 2)/GA1, Draft talk:Move/Talk:Doctor Who (series 2)/GA2, and Draft talk:Move/Talk:Doctor Who (series 2)/GA3 when trying to move to Talk:Doctor Who series 2/GA1. It gives the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'allpages')
    at getSubpages (<anonymous>:406:25)
    at roundrobin (<anonymous>:772:17)
    at clickSwap (<anonymous>:1072:3)

@Eejit43 Thanks for the heads up. Please leave those orphaned pages in place for now so I can do some debugging, but I think trying to swap a talk page with subpages without moving the content page may be something my testcases missed. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 15:53, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Will do, thanks! :) ~ Eejit43 (talk) 16:01, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Eejit43 I can't seem to reproduce the error, at least not in my sandbox. When you used the swap tool, what pages did you enter as the old and new titles? --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 18:37, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I simply clicked the "Swap" toolbar link on Draft talk:Move/Talk:Doctor Who (series 2)/GA1, which automatically set the old title to "Draft talk" and "Move/Talk:Doctor Who (series 2)/GA1", and I changed the destination title to "Talk" and "Doctor Who series 2/GA1". ~ Eejit43 (talk) 19:59, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also semi-random side note, the "Move associated talk page" button being disabled makes sense, as you changed in the latest version, but it should probably also be unchecked as that confused me when I went to try it right then. ~ Eejit43 (talk) 20:01, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Eejit43 Ahh, got it. The test case that I was missing was trying to check talk pages in the "Draft talk:" namespace specifically (other namespaces would fail gracefully since the next namespace number exists, but Draft Talk is namespace 119 and there is no namespace 120). I've updated the script and successfully moved that page to Talk:Doctor Who series 2/GA1. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 21:11, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much! I'll complete the other moves :) ~ Eejit43 (talk) 21:25, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is it alright to either tag the following as G6 or would you tag them as G7? Thanks!

~ Eejit43 (talk) 01:03, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Eejit43 Thanks for the reminder. I took care of those 4 pages. --Ahecht (TALK

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024[edit]

Hello Ahecht,

Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to Schminnte, who led with over 2,300 points.

Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to JTtheOG, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.

It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!

2023 Awards

Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.

Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.

Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.

Reminders:

You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.

There is a mop reserved in your name[edit]

You are a remarkable editor in many ways. You would be a good administrator, in my opinion, and appear to be well qualified. You personify an administrator without tools and have gained my support already!

Maliner (talk) 20:56, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You're not an admin? Queen of ♡ | speak 21:08, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seconded. You have my support, (also I just remebered that I should work on afdstats, thank you for the work you do on maintaining it) Sohom (talk) 21:37, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can take very little credit for afdstats, my involvement was mostly just applying a few hacks to get it up and running on the new Kubernetes servers. --Ahecht (TALK

Yep, good work with those page moves yesterday. Mind numbingly tedious but the essence of necessary mop work. ——Serial Number 54129 17:29, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Maliner, Queen of Hearts, Sohom Datta, Serial Number 54129: Thanks all. I've been hesitant to devote the time and effort needed for a traditional RfA, as my personal life often interferes in unexpected ways, but I've been considering WP:AELECT if/when that happens. --Ahecht (TALK
