00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,036
OK, so I'm User:Mike.lifeguard, and I do a lot of work on the spam blacklist
2
00:00:09,037 --> 00:00:13,575
So, one of our problems is we don't have a lot of people
3
00:00:13,576 --> 00:00:21,152
So I'm going to make a series of screencasts that should hopefully help new users who want to contribute to this area
4
00:00:21,153 --> 00:00:28,224
I'm really sick right now (I actually lost my voice entirely earlier today), so if I sound kinda funny, sorry for that.
5
00:00:29,749 --> 00:00:33,069
So this is the main talk page, Talk:Spam blacklist
6
00:00:33,069 --> 00:00:39,003
And there's instructions at the top for people who want to file
7
00:00:41,143 --> 00:00:43,210
reports for proposed additions, there's proposed removals as well
8
00:00:43,210 --> 00:00:54,405
(those are usually longer-running, because it does require a lot more attention and investigation)
9
00:00:54,405 --> 00:00:57,905
and there's some other sections down here that we'll cover later
10
00:00:57,905 --> 00:01:01,243
But today I want to cover the bot-reported proposed additions
11
00:01:01,243 --> 00:01:06,095
We used to have 2 bots, now we only have COIBot
12
00:01:09,859 --> 00:01:16,410
the page is actually transcluded, so I'm just going to load up the actual page
13
00:01:17,776 --> 00:01:20,138
So you can see that this is a sortable table
14
00:01:22,146 --> 00:01:24,387
So you can sort by name (which is already is)
15
00:01:24,387 --> 00:01:30,397
You can sort by who last updated it (the last update's here, and then by who)
16
00:01:30,397 --> 00:01:34,933
So you can see here that Beetstra (he's actually the botop for COIBot)
17
00:01:34,933 --> 00:01:39,274
was the last person who updated that report
18
00:01:39,274 --> 00:01:41,047
so he must have left some kind of comment.
19
00:01:41,047 --> 00:01:47,191
And the nice thing about this is that you can transclude using AJAX
20
00:01:47,191 --> 00:01:52,822
So, you just hit [show], and it shows you the report...
21
00:01:52,822 --> 00:01:59,614
and you can go down here and see that Beetstra just linked this report to another one.
22
00:02:00,512 --> 00:02:01,056
And then we can hide that again.
23
00:02:03,047 --> 00:02:07,244
One of the more useful things to sort by is the number of links
24
00:02:07,244 --> 00:02:14,714
You can see here, 59 is pretty high, so let's go into that report...
25
00:02:16,794 --> 00:02:22,425
And there's a lot of information here, as you can see
26
00:02:22,425 --> 00:02:29,903
this is a fairly standard size for reports
27
00:02:29,903 --> 00:02:36,450
There's a few sections: Links, Users, the rules (we won't cover that yet)
28
00:02:36,450 --> 00:02:48,895
additions (we will definitely be looking at that - that's actually the data of every edit where this link was placed in one of our wikis
29
00:02:50,471 --> 00:02:54,671
the entry we won't worry about yet, and then discussion is where you can leave comments
