Old requests

This page is for requesting access to the redirect autopatrol pseudoright. If you wish to discuss this list, its requirements, or NPP in general, please do so at the NPP discussion page.

The criteria for this pseudoright is an established track record creating uncontroversial redirects.

For a request to be considered successful it must have been open for at least 24 hours with the consensus of at least 3 editors who possess the new page reviewer permission (which includes all administrators). After two weeks, if a request does not have the individual consensus of 3 reviewers the request will be automatically closed. Alternatively an administrator may close a request as successful or unsuccessful at any time as part of standard individual administrative discretion for the granting of user rights.

Closed requests will be archived to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect autopatrol list/Old requests after a minimum of three calendar days^[a] following the close of the discussion.

514 admins

Based on there being no push back at Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers#Add administrators to the redirect autopatrol list, I'd like to propose that we add the 514 admins that are not autopatrolled (via redirect autopatrol list or autopatrolled perm) to the list.

I don't believe that members of the NPP team need to manually review redirects created by administrators. I believe their time is better spent elsewhere. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:19, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

DannyS712, Hey man im josh, I don't suppose you have any bright ideas of how to efficiently merge this list into the existing list? My first thought is to write a Python script to merge the lists and then copy the resulting text into the target page, but it may be a bit until I can find time to do that, as I don't have Python set up on this computer. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 15:21, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I can make a list up and place it in my sandbox @Rosguill. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:23, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

How's this @Rosguill? Hey man im josh (talk) 15:35, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please change:

<!-- DannyS712 bot III: whitelist start -->

to:

<!-- DannyS712 bot III: autopatrol list start -->

and:

<!-- DannyS712 bot III: whitelist end -->

to:

<!-- DannyS712 bot III: autopatrol list end -->

Per the closure of the requested move above, to match up with the new terminology. A pull request was opened to updated the code; pinging DannyS712. 🐶 EpicPupper ^{(he/him | talk)} 19:40, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please do NOT do this edit request (not marking as declined because I'm not an admin so I can't really respond to it) - this should be done at the same time that the bot is updated to change the code and I might not be around for it. Its also unrelated to the requested move above. When I know I'm going to be around, we can figure out how to change this without breaking the bot in the process. DannyS712 (talk) 22:00, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, this should be coordinated carefully with bot code changes. 🐶 EpicPupper ^{(he/him | talk)} 22:26, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

 On hold deactivated as the immediate edit is not ready, pending when DannS712 can schedule changes - at which time this can be done. — xaosflux ^Talk 22:31, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We recently added all admins that didn't have autopatrol to the the list in this diff. For me, it is making the page load slow, adds a little bit of clutter, and may also end up being a chore to maintain as the list gets out of sync with new admins and former admins. I wonder if it might be better to just add a check to the bot (the bot can grab a list of all sysops via SQL) instead of manually adding admins to this list. Thoughts? cc DannyS712.
