MediaWiki talk:NotabilityMove/code.js/Archive 1

Feedback (or: why I don't use this otherwise amazing tool yet)

 * There is no keyboard shortcut to use the notability move tool, while there is (" m ") to move pages and to (" d ") delete them (see " . " and " ? "). g then n would be unlikely to conflict with other keyboard shortcuts Wikia might add. (We can add them through  and   which are used in the source code of  .)
 * NCU is an acronym that needs to be explained to users, it might be best to either link to Help:Jargon or expand the acronym. But then there is the issue that the acronym only seems to apply to users (though we do use it as "NCU group," "NCU place," etc.) and that celebrity isn't the only way we determine whether someone is notable.
 * Why use the NCU shortcut to link to Project:Policies and guidelines if the summary is generated automatically anyway? Shortcuts are usually meant for use on talk pages or places where they are typed manually, there's no point if it's done automatically. On the other hand, it may be useful if we ever decide to change the name of the section.
 * "Does not meet notability guidelines" might be best changed to "Does not meet notability policy," since the notability rules are a policy. --Mark Otaris (talk) 00:37, August 29, 2016 (UTC)


 * Huh, didn't think of that. Out of those, I only knew of the editing keyboard shortcut. Although, I do avidly use " g r " to get to RC. I will try implementing this; however, this is more of a patchwork of code snippets that I found than it is original code. I am not very competent at using the MediaWiki JS APIs, or JS really. (So feel free to add this yourself, if your willing. :P)
 * "NCU" is only used internally in this program and to the users who can access this tool (the content mods and ourselves– unless you meant the content mods?). I suppose a link to Help:Jargon would suffice though.
 * Mostly due to the reason that you mentioned– to act as a "permalink" to that section of the policy. ...Admittedly though, it was partially to keep that line o' code short.
 * tru. I was mostly hung up on making sure it said "does not meet notability" as opposed to "is not notable". Will change it.
