Re 261 eaters down in Former PH 1st lady's 90th birthdayEdit

Hi Gryllida,

I have updated the article. I am trying to reach the hospitals but sadly "no latest news about affected peoples' condition" as DOH released a statement the incident is in light of suspected mass food poisoning.

--Dehgel (talk) 04:39, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

Whose quote is that? Is that the response from the hospitals? Gryllida (talk) 10:18, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

--Gryllida (talk) 20:20, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

I updated the article. It was the statement of Department of Health (DOH) on July 4 this year, which monitoring all hospitals where affected people have admitted. Many of the patients were discharged from hospital. Dehgel (talk) 20:20, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
@Dehgel: Unfortunately, that information still comes from last Thursday. In order to refresh the article, there would need to be some new information that came to light within the past day or two. Or some further development (even an announcement), with two sources, for a refocus. --Pi zero (talk) 13:34, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi Gryllida

I'm refining my choices and also I don't seem to be getting notifs on my talk page.

You're right, this is a bug. (This api query needs a cmlimit, otherwise it only retrieves the first 10 members of the category.) Sorry about that!...
This has now been fixed, and I expect the notifications to appear shortly.
(Just as a reminder, please check the user script detailed at this section or that one: you don't have it enabled here, and without it, your talk page might become difficult to read.) Gryllida (talk) 01:33, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

Trigonidiida reportsEdit

I noticed I got reports when Pi zero added/changed categories for very old stories, but I didn't get any for the last two stories submitted for review. Cheers, --SVTCobra 00:35, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

Hi SVTCobra. Sorry, my laptop seems offline the last 2-3 hours, I'll check the log files and get it back online tonight when I am home. Regards, Gryllida (talk) 03:20, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

SpamEdit

Hi Gryllida,

Any chance you can write a self-learning spam-blocker in five minutes? Today was a nightmare. I can't continue. Cheers, --SVTCobra 01:10, 27 August 2019 (UTC)

Hi SVTCobra.
I'd be concerned about fully automatic spam deletion.
Would a one-click 'delete this page as spam and block this user [and do one more click for mass delete]' button help?
Regards, Gryllida (talk) 01:16, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
I was half-joking. But I am fried right now. --SVTCobra 01:21, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
This is one of the things I have in mind to build an assistant for. That wouldn't happening in the next five minutes, though. --Pi zero (talk) 01:25, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
I was thinking a bit bigger. An artificially intelligent program that populates the blacklist or whatever is supposed to stop spam from being posted in the first place. When something slips by, it looks at what the human admins blocked as spam and learns. This is a fantasy as far as I can tell. At least without a googoplex of $. And the downfall would probably be the system learns the best way to block spam is to block all contributions. Good night, folks. --SVTCobra 01:41, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
"Artificial intelligence" is a misnomer. --Pi zero (talk) 01:48, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
Can we enable mw:Extension:ORES here? I think it learns spam patterns and offers them for human review. I could build a nice UI for it. Gryllida (talk) 02:02, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
No thanks. --Pi zero (talk) 02:51, 27 August 2019 (UTC)

GryllidaEdit

Gryllida is an interesting page you created a couple of days ago. Would you like me to redirect it to your user page or develop it into a full news article? Cheers, --SVTCobra 01:40, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

I'm using it for testing my 'welcome a bit' software as I am rewriting it to "listen" for page categorizations in recent changes instead of querying DPL lists for new category additions. If its precence in the main namespace is causing any difficulties I do not mind experimenting in my user space instead. Please let me know if this is the case and then I'll move it over. Gryllida (talk) 02:00, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
No worries. I am disappointed I don't get to write another article, though. ... No, it's fine, I just didn't know what it was about. As long as you are using it and tracking it, it's more than fine. --SVTCobra 02:07, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
Thanks SVTCobra. Clearly "check rss feed for new entries for all Svetlana's subscriptions, then for all SVTCobra's subscriptions, and so on" has performance issues. I'm just rewriting the logic now to make it more sensible.
Once that's done I'll get back to you about how to make deleting spam easier, I think at the very least this is too many clicks at the moment. Gryllida (talk) 02:10, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

Practical disadvantageEdit

Although setting Trigonidiida's bot bit keeps the notifications themselves out of RC, I'm finding if I'm watching a talk page that gets such notices, it's really difficult to sort out non-bot remarks there. Such as on this page — I saw SVTCobra had said something here, and wondered what it was... and then had to wrestle with the page revision history. I'm not sure what to suggest, but it seems worth thinking about. --Pi zero (talk) 02:15, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for sharing this. I think that I will need to delegate the archival task to the separate bot account also. I will let you know when this happens. Gryllida (talk) 02:18, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
That 'Pi zero' character is quite the stalker. --SVTCobra 02:31, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
I reckon that this character has an engine somewhere, even if there is no 'this is a car' label on the tin. :) Gryllida (talk) 03:04, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
Having the bot remove sections as well as adding them... hmm. Would want to avoid doing so if anyone else has commented in the section, I guess? Could have some drawbacks; it'd imply less involvement by the subscriber, after all. I've pretty mixed feelings about that; and of course it wouldn't help with sorting out the revision history of the talk page... afaik. --Pi zero (talk) 13:01, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi DannyS712. Thank you for offering your help. This tool is in Perl. The current version [1] checks for all feeds of each user every 10 minutes; for instance, it checks all news in 'Australia' because I am signed up for it, then all news in 'Africa' because someone else is. This is redundant; instead it should look for all new pages, and sort them by topics and users afterwards. The new version is available at [2] in the 'Draft version' section. Would you please be able to complete it? --Gryllida (talk) 22:45, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
I didn't realize its for the welcome a bit project. I'll take a look, but I'm not familiar with perl --DannyS712 (talk) 23:13, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
I'm available at the live chat, or audio chat using GNU Jami, particularly at 6am-7am sydney time (7pm-8pm UTC?). Is this time convenient for you? --Gryllida (talk) 23:23, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
Until after January 1 I don't have the time to add new projects, but after that if you're still interested it should be a good time to talk. Until then, my contributions will be in bursts and splutters, sorry --DannyS712 (talk) 23:24, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
