Where is the template

I suppose the notification DPL bot drops in task #2 is a template somewhere. Where can it be found? Or is it part of the source code? Debresser (talk) 18:23, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's part of the source code. It's customized to give the right type of message depending on the number of articles to fix. --JaGatalk 02:56, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't remember why I started to be interested in this. Perhaps the template opens a new section without leaving a whiteline between sections. Debresser (talk) 20:07, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'd appreciate it if you could look into this. Debresser (talk) 09:56, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. Could you show me an example? --JaGatalk 14:10, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that was the reason. Here you have a diff. [1] Debresser (talk) 16:33, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Move Watch

I said so on AN, but I guess this is a better place for the discussion. I'm already active at WMF Tools Labs (or whatever the right incantation is) and I'm up for a bit of development, if you're looking for someone to help out with Move Watch, or to take it over. I'm not familiar with the original tool - I guess I'm thinking something along the lines of querying for the database for the n users with the most page moves in the past m days and plot them as points on a scatter chart, with one axis the number of moves and the other axis the time since account creation. Each point on the chart is then a link to the editor's user page. Sound about right? n and m default to something like 1000 and 60, and I'm guessing an option for logarithmic axes will be useful.

I'm going to have to review it myself - it's been a while since I bothered with it. If I remember correctly, I couldn't get the information I needed from the database, so I put together some crazy page content reading thing. I'm sure there's a much better way to do it, but for now I'm just going to see if I can get it working again. --JaGatalk 22:42, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Note that I've come up with my own tool, independently: See movestats. Is that the sort of thing that MoveWatch was intended to show, or was there more to it? GoldenRing (talk) 09:17, 4 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, that's really nice. That's it, but mine was more of a plain list format that gave grand totals for all pagemoves. I'll probably try to fire it up and show you the result. --JaGatalk 15:45, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I've got it working again. Here's the page. Not pretty, but aimed squarely at getting a quick idea of who's moving what. --JaGatalk 13:29, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I see. I might try to incorporate some of that information into my graphical display when I get a couple of hours (eg use colour to show rough edit count). GoldenRing (talk) 14:08, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[[Harry, Braun, Democratic Presidential Candidate

Dear (JaGa), Thank you for noticing the defective Wikipedia link to "Constitutional Conventions." I failed to include (United States) in the link, but have now corrected the problem, thanks to your careful observations. Thank you again.Harry W Braun III (talk) 12:36, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
