I have decided to fix it. If leek doesn't want it, then that's fine by me. JuniperChill (talk) 21:57, 19 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

July thanks

Thank you for improving article quality in July! - Today's story is about a photographer who took iconic pictures, especially View from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, on Manhattan, 9/11, yesterday's was a great mezzo, and on Thursday we watched a sublime ballerina. If that's not enough my talk offers chamber music from two amazing concerts. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:03, 20 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Mixed relay hook

edit

I want to bring to your attention that although you said that you wanted to put an improved hook back in the same set (on 2 August, the day of the first round of the mixed relay in the Olympics [1]), you've placed it in another set. – Editør (talk) 11:36, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Editør: sorry about that! I put it in the August 3 set, which should be the mixed relay finals – queue verification is a much lengthier process than prep verification, and I already filled my queue and didn't want to have to shuffle it around again right before I go to sleep. Hence, putting it in the next prep for hopefully another admin to deal with. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 11:39, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Antwort
I see; with the new hook no longer being about the qualification, the day of the final seems suitable as well. – Editør (talk) 11:42, 31 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Retranscluding pulled nominations are being placed under the wrong date

edit

theleekycauldron, regrettably, PSHAW seems incapable of retranscluding nominations to their proper date; it's instead putting them into the oldest date on the Nominations page. It would be helpful if you took an extra 30 seconds or so to quickly look at the article history, and then place the retransclusions under the proper date (creation, move to mainspace, 5x expansion start, GA listing), as I've just done for the two you did today and did the other day for the ones you pulled then. Thank you very much for making sure that nominations that aren't ready for the main page are pulled back. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:22, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@BlueMoonset: that would be fairly easy for me, but incredibly time-consuming for a script. Could we just create a "Pulled nominations" temporary holding subheader? I think that's a good compromise. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 19:25, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Antwort
It might mess up DYKHousekeepingBot to have non-date sections. Manual pulls and retransclusions have been a thing for years; why not just manually put it under the correct date? Scripts generally haven't been used for this process, which is pretty specialized; the nomination needs to be written to manually to reopen the nom and supersede its tick. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:32, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Antwort
@BlueMoonset: sure, and manual promotions were also a thing for years, but it was a cumbersome process – that's why PSHAW is basically ubiquitous now, it's way more accessible. The bot might be able to handle a non-date header if it were made the same way the WP:SOHA is? In any case, I'd also add that while slotting nominations under the incorrect date is annoying on an aesthetic level, it makes sense on a practical one: pulled nominations should be given more attention so that they can be either failed or repromoted in a short timespan, and putting them higher up accomplishes that, so I wouldn't want to put them back under the creation/expansion date. Lemme pore through WugBot's code, see if there's a way to add a new header. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 19:38, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Antwort
Please be sure to check with User:Shubinator about how this might affect DYKHousekeepingBot; just because WugBot could add a new non-date header, doesn't mean it won't break things if it does. I seem to recall that an adjustment had to be made to Housekeeping to handle SOHA when it moved from the bottom to near the top of the Approved page; I suspect whatever the new section is would need to have a new third-level header, since each nom is its own fourth-level header. I'm sure it can be worked out if it's determined that this is the way to go with pulled nominations. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:21, 1 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
