從差異中過濾掉Citation bot、InternetArchiveBot和OAbot編輯的方法 Open

編輯願望 討論此願望

描述

這些機器人所做的變更可能會使差異變得雜亂無章,並花費維基百科編輯者的大量時間,來處理更長、更雜亂的差異。

當這些機器人編輯頁面後,希望能啟用一個選項,從差異中排除這些機器人變更。有一個工具可以在監視清單顯示「自上次瀏覽之後」的差異,我希望這些差異能排除機器人變更。
(如果不使用這樣的工具,編輯者可能要花額外的時間,手動進入每個頁面的修訂記錄頁面,然後尋找沒有標示「updated since your last visit」的最舊項目,點選該修訂,然後點選「Compare selected revisions」。 我不知道編輯者為什麼要忍受這個,而不是預設有一個「自上次瀏覽之後的差異」連結。)

If one has many articles on the Watchlist and wants to check all of them or as many as possible, this takes a lot of time. It also takes more effort to see the semantic changes done by human editors when diffs are very long and cluttered with such bot changes. This filter could save a lot of valuable editors' time which they can use for other things.

These bots are very useful and when their changes are filtered out from a diff there could be a note at the top such as "1 edit by Citation bot is hidden, visit the revision history to check its change". The diff url could have a parameter such as ?filtereb=1 set but that isn't required.

See for example this diff. Note: with this bot filtering in this case there would be "(No difference)" and as a second step I'd also propose that items that are not changing a page can also be hidden or are displayed differently on the Watchlist. More often, the actual change becomes much clearer and easy to see when common established-bot edits are excluded (example). The latter could be improved further if diffs better understood when text segments have only been moved around.

It would reduce the time and effort needed to scan through diffs because diffs are not cluttered by cosmetic and minor changes to citation parameters and so on.

There may be a couple additional bots one may consider adding to the list of bots whose changes can be excluded like GreenC bot, WikiCleanerBot, and maybe ClueBot.

This proposal is quite important because it could save a lot of time which Wikimedians could use for anything else people may consider important – I generally personally prioritize proposals that save significant contributor's time or make them more productive because that seems like an efficient way to get the projects forward as they could use that time for anything else (from writing articles to implementing wishes in code or working on making the sites better known and more successful).

註:下面的phabricator工單有MediaWiki-Watchlist標籤,該工單因為監視清單已有隱藏所有機器人編輯的功能而被關閉,不過這個願望是關於差異的問題,也許應該針對差異建立一個新工單。
