Wikipedia:New Pages Patrol - Tools

Tools

• Twinkle is a user script that contains quick reverting, deletion, warning, and reporting features. It can be used to tag articles for speedy deletion, and it automatically marks pages as patrolled when applying tags. The script includes all of the most commonly used article tags, and makes sure that article creators are automatically notified of CSD, PROD, BLPPROD, and AfD tags.
• New Page Patroller shows a box in the sidebar that loads a live feed updated every 5 seconds of the 10 newest articles.
• Recent Moves shows pages that have been recently moved into article space from other namespaces, using a similar interface to Special:NewPages.
• NPWatcher is a new-page monitoring and reporting tool for Windows. It also provides extensive deletion processing tools for admins.
• Kissle is a program similar to NPWatcher for Windows.
• RC patrol script permits rapid tagging of new pages with the relevant criteria for speedy deletion (ie: for articles that don't indicate the subject's significance, use "A7"). This tool isn't useful for new page patrol unless you have some of the CSDs committed to memory. However, it also gives non-admins tools for revert, filter, and popup, while using the (default) monobook skin.
• Edit Filter 342, which catches cases where redirects are changed into articles.
• The WikiProject Check Wikipedia script scans new pages on a daily basis, and passes them through a series of Wiki syntax checks. The result is listed as a series of reports of pages to fix.
• WikiAlerter (beta) is a Windows program designed to aid users in tagging pages for deletion and patrolling new pages.
• Special:Log Set the type of action to "Patrol" (default is "all logs") and add a user's name to see which pages the person has marked as patrolled.
• Subject area patrol filter: Add importScript("User:Fred Gandt/getUnpatrolledOfAlexNewArtBotResultsPages.js"); to your account's common.js file, and then you can use the subject-specific lists at User:AlexNewArtBot to focus on one content area.
