Request for information on WP1.0 web tool
Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.
We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:25, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Peer review page update
Hi all, I've boldly updated your project's peer review page (Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Vancouver/Peer review) by updating the instructions and archiving old reviews.
The new instructions use Misplaced Pages's general peer review process (WP:PR) to list peer reviews. Your project's reviews are still able to be listed on your local page too.
The benefits of this change is that review requests will get seen by a wider audience and are likely to be attended to in a more timely way (many WikiProject peer reviews remain unanswered after years). The Misplaced Pages peer review process is also more maintained than most WikiProjects, and this may help save time for your active members.
I've done this boldly as it seems your peer review page is pretty inactive and I am working through around 90 such similar peer review pages. Please feel free to discuss below - please ping me ({{u|Tom (LT)}}) in your response.
Cheers and hope you are well, Tom (LT) (talk) 23:48, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
- Tom (LT), Thanks. What does peer review entail? And, are GA reviews a subset of peer reviews? If there is appetite for a GA review -- I would like to request one for John Turner. Ktin (talk) 02:23, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ping. Anyone can request a peer review of any article at any time and you can go to WP:PR to learn more about that. A GA review is like a "step" in the development of an article where it has to meet certain criteria to get to that point. To learn more about that process, the criteria and how to nominate your article, see WP:GA. --Tom (LT) (talk) 02:27, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
User script to detect unreliable sources
Main page: User:Headbomb/unreliableI have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Misplaced Pages. The idea is that it takes something like
- John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (
John Smith "" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.)
and turns it into something like
- John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.
It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

New land acknowledgement userbox
Hi, I created the userbox below and thought some project members might be interested in using it. Cheers, Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 00:48, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
