Control by lists edit

(Web tool with assisted editing)

Keep track from a web tool of the way in which the elements of a list are included in the project, and correct the accessibility problems detected from the tool itself, in an assisted way.

This proposal is on hold because of lack of support in phase A. Anyway, you can leave useful comments for a future rethinking of the idea.

  • I support this proposal as it will reduce the time volunteers have to devote to merely technical matters. Many time can be saved and use to more productive matters by using automatic or semiautomatic processes. B25es (talk) 18:31, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
