Bugs and feature requests

edit

Your feedback is essential. Please report all bugs and feature requests on the talk page.

This user script keeps a log that I monitor. I silently catch and fix a lot of bugs by looking at diffs in the log. I no longer check every diff, but if the script shows you a red "error" message, I will get a ping and I will investigate.

To-do list

edit

How to use

edit

Visit a GAN review page. Page title must be in the format "Talk:Page/GA##". There must be no {{atop}} template currently on the GAN review page. Associated talk page must have the {{GA nominee}} template. If these conditions are met, the script will display.

You choose whether it passes or fails, then click submit.

Algorithm

edit

Displaying the user script uses the following algorithm:

  • Page must end in /GA#
  • No {{Atop}} (in other words, not already closed)
  • Talk page must have {{GA nominee}}

Passes use the following algorithm:

Fails use the following algorithm:

http errors

edit

If you get an "http" error while submitting, it means there was a problem with the internet connection during the multi-step submission process, and some of the steps did not get completed. In this situation, you should double check GANReviewTool's work, and fix any missing steps.

If you don't do this, the folks over at Wikipedia:Good articles/mismatches will probably catch and fix it in about a week. But it's good to not create a mess.

How to use

edit

Visit a GAR reassessment page. GANReviewTool needs the following to detect the page as a valid GAR and to show the GARCloser panel:

  • GAR reassessment page title must be in the format "Talk:Page/GA##" or "Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/ABC".
  • There must be no {{atop}} template currently on the GAR reassessment page.
  • Individual reassessments (not community reassessments) must contain ==GA Reassessment==
  • Article talk page must have the {{GAR/link}} template.

If these conditions are met, the script will display the GARCloser panel. If you can't get GARCloser to run on the page, please make sure all the above criteria are met.

For "Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/ABC" style pages, you must visit the subpage. The GARCloser panel does not appear on the index page Wikipedia:Good article reassessment.
