[edit]Data I'd like to see summarised in a list of articles to be checked:
- Date of article creation
- Date of most recent edit to the article
- Result of copyvio check
- Google search on page title
- Name of article creator
- Analysis of contributions of article creator (to detect SPAs and new editors)
- Article size
- Presence or absence of stub templates and/or article rating from talk page (if rating exists)
- Number of external links
- Use of reference tags
- Number of edits made since creation
- Crude analysis of rate (frequency) of editing and what sort of edits (reverts, minor, etc.)
- Diff comparing original and current article
- Amount of IP editing
- Amount of editing by redlinked accounts (no user page)
- Amount of editing by blocked accounts
- Detect any page blankings that took place
- Detect vandalism reverts made by anti-vandalbots
- Detect vandalism reverts made by editors (examine edit summaries)
- Report how many editors have the article watchlisted and how active those editors are
- Report talk page activity and list wikiproject tags
- Report number of incoming links from article space and list them
- Report incoming links that are redirects
- Report number of incoming links from other namespaces and list them
- Detect AfDs if they exist ({{la}} and its variants are useful)
- Detect additions of PROD or CSD tags in the article history
- Report any activity in the logs (e.g. previous deletions, page protections, page patrolling)
- Report any interwiki links
- Report result of search on other wikis
- Report date of page patrolling (or absence of such) and name of patrolling editor
- Report the number and types of categories (differentiate between normal and templated categories)
- Report the cleanup-type tags added and when added
That's 32 things listed so far. Any missing? How much of this is possible or already done by various tools? Carcharoth (talk) 13:45, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
