ProcBot: Move editnotices following underlying page move failure

ProcBot's task "Move editnotices following underlying page move" failed to run per the configuration specified at Wikipedia:Bot activity monitor/Configurations. Detected only 0 "move" actions in the last 14 days, whereas at least 1 was expected. If/when the issue is fixed, please change the section title (e.g. append " - Fixed") or remove this section completely. When that is done, this notice will be reposted if the bot task is still broken or is re-broken. If your bot is behaving as expected, then you may want to modify the task configuration instead. Or to unsubscribe from bot failure notifications, remove the |notify= parameter from the {{/task}} template. Thanks! – SDZeroBot (talk) 13:53, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

RFBA inactive?

The proposal at Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/BsoykaBot 3 has been open for nearly 4 weeks, and has been calling for a the attention of a BAG member for over 2 weeks, but so far has no comment from a BAG member. Can you take a look, or advise? Dicklyon (talk) 15:12, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Filter 1163

1163 (hist · log)

Hey proc, hope all is well. Any chance you remember why you wrote [^\s|] in filter 1163 instead of \S? This effectively prevents detecting repeats that contain a | character. I'm guessing this has something to do with preventing $O(n^{2})$ run-times, so I'm hesitant to remove it. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 22:01, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey. I think it was a broad attempt to reduce FPs, by better supporting tables. \S would match against |, whereas [^\s|] does not. There is probably a better way to deal with tables, to be fair. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 02:22, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

RFA2024 update: phase I concluded, phase II begins

Hi there! Phase I of the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:

Proposals 2 and 9b (phase II discussion): Add a reminder of civility norms at RfA and Require links for claims of specific policy violations
Proposal 3b (in trial): Make the first two days discussion-only
Proposal 13 (in trial): Admin elections
Proposal 14 (implemented): Suffrage requirements
Proposals 16 and 16c (phase II discussion): Allow the community to initiate recall RfAs and Community recall process based on dewiki
Proposal 17 (phase II discussion): Have named Admins/crats to monitor infractions
Proposal 24 (phase II discussion): Provide better mentoring for becoming an admin and the RfA process
Proposal 25 (implemented): Require nominees to be extended confirmed

See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron (talk), via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Telegraph close ?

It's been a while since our paths crossed and it seems you've largely been away from Wikipedia for a while. Welcome back. Is there a reason you wrote about plural closers for the Telegraph RfC when it was closed by a single person (S Marshall)? Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 03:14, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Barkeep. Thanks! Things have been busy recently but I try to pop my head in when I can. No, that particular instance was a poorly placed apostrophe. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 03:39, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Normally I wouldn't ask but given the previous close for that discussion I was just curious if you were lumping Compassionate in with S Marshall. Glad that wasn't the case. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 04:01, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello ProcrastinatingReader, thank you for your close of the close review. It must have taken significant effort. Appreciate it! starship .paint (RUN) 10:38, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

same as the rest, thanks for closing such a contentious discussion, which had already eaten two other closers alive, in a way that seems to me completely unobjectionable!--Licks-rocks (talk) 11:39, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
