swapping columns 4 & 5 for mouse move ergonomics
[edit]- User:Wbm1058, I still love this table, thank you for it. I think it would be improved, by swapping columns 4 & 5, putting the "talk link" column in the middle, and the "Current title > New Title" on the right. This is mainly for ergonomics, with the column of "discuss"s narrow, and the title sprawling and variable in length, I wouldn't have to keep moving my mouse so much when opening both links. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:22, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
Done by bot version 6.60, which writes to Wikipedia:Requested moves/Current discussions (table) as requested above. wbm1058 (talk) 18:21, 6 July 2018 (UTC)

Days open
[edit]To editor wbm1058: hello my friend! Just a small point to consider... it appears that all the numbers in the "Days open" column are actually one day too many. At present, the very first entry shows being opened at 20:17 on 2018-09-25, and it already appears as being open for "1" day. All ensuing entries are then shown as one more day open than they actually are – 23 days open is actually 22 days open, and so on. Can't the bot begin this table with 0 days open so that all ensuing entries are correctly depicted? Paine Ellsworth put'r there 23:10, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
Perhaps begin with ">0" days open? or "> 0"? (with space between symbols) OSLT? Maybe use the greater than symbol (>) in the column header, as in "Days open (>)"? Paine Ellsworth put'r there 10:50, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
- @Paine Ellsworth: "< 1" is probably better. Avoids the concept of "0-day" ;) wbm1058 (talk) 15:45, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
Done – bot version 6.64 – wbm1058 (talk) 21:55, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you very much, wbm1058! That's much more precise. Paine Ellsworth put'r there 23:58, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
Edit request
[edit]@Wbm1058:, I made a redirect to this page at WP:RMTABLE, it would be better to add the shortcut template. For the discussion that have not been relisted, I suggest to change the date in "Current list date" to em dash since the date is same with "Original list date. Hddty. (talk) 10:57, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Hddty.: Sorry, I don't recall getting the ping and I don't check in on this page very often.
Done – {{shortcut|WP:RMTABLE}} added in bot version 6.70
- To clarify, you're asking me to change the format of the date from 2019-01-25 11:48 to 2019–01–25 11:48? Can you explain why you want that change? I don't follow the point of it, and hyphens are the standard characters used for this date format. wbm1058 (talk) 15:06, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
- @Wbm1058: Thanks for the reply, what I mean is currently it has format like this:
Original list date | Days open |
Current list date | Talk link |
Current title → New title |
---|---|---|---|---|
2019-01-25 22:27 | < 1 | 2019-01-25 22:27 | Discuss | x → x |
- Since the date under "Original list date" and "Current list date" has the same value, it would be better to simplify it like this:
Original list date | Days open |
Current list date | Talk link |
Current title → New title |
---|---|---|---|---|
2019-01-25 22:27 | < 1 | — |
Discuss | x → x |

- But those columns are sortable, and all the en dashes would sort to the same thing. I suppose I could specify the date as a sort key while displaying the en dash though. wbm1058 (talk) 00:30, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
Stale?
