Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic

Programming language(s): Python

Source code available:

Function overview: Functional changes to Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/HasteurBot, Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/HasteurBot 2, and Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/HasteurBot 9 after community supported requests

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion#Sidebar proposal

Edit period(s): Continous (sort-of)

Estimated number of pages affected: Same as HasteurBot1/HasteurBot 2

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): No

Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: Changing the way HasteurBot (Task 1, Task 2/Task 9) works so that we start giving notices at the 5 months un-edited (instead of the 6 months previously) so that when the article does become eligible for CSD:G13 the author will (at that point) had a month to come back and make even a single edit to the page to derail the G13 eligibility. If the page is still un-edited after a month of the user being notified (i.e. 6 months) and the page is eligible, then go ahead an perform the G13 nomination.

Discussion

I intend to file for early Administrative closure once the underlying discussion has ran for ~7 days to give people an opportunity to object to my proposal. Once the closure takes, I will make the changes and have a diff of the code I intend to change up. Because this task will change the rules for how we calculate which pages to deliver notice and nominate on, I intend to flush my current set of "notified" records so that we can have a clean break. This means that pages that were already inside their 6 month window will recieve at least one additional month of reprieve (and annother notification) before we perform the CSD:G13 nomination.

I don't see any technical problems here with the way you have proposed the transition. So far consensus seems to be strong at the other discussion. This BRFA should prove uncontroversial. Thank you for this work. Gigs (talk) 23:46, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'll speedy approve this as soon as the on-going discussion is closed. -- Magioladitis (talk) 16:21, 28 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hasteur maybe it's time the main discussion closes? -- Magioladitis (talk) 06:26, 10 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
