Article alerts [edit]

This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.

If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Some not correct! [edit]

Several of the articles listed in Category:Netherlands Antilles articles correct after Dissolution have simply changed the verb tense from "is" to "was" and changed other text to include the words "former Netherlands Antilles", without realising that by doing so information about Aruba needs to be added to the text. For example, "The NA consists of Bonaire, Curaçao, Saba, Sint Maarten, and Statia" would need to be corrected to "The NA consisted of Bonaire, Curaçao, Saba, Sint Maarten, and Statia, and until 1986 also included Aruba." I've corrected one or two of the articles in this regard, but you may need to go through the others to double-check them! Grutness...wha? 23:01, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
