This looks great! Would it be possible to make a modified version that lists description edits in a particular language (instead of sitelink edits for a particular project)? This should be very useful for targeted patrolling too; it came up as a suggestion in the Wikidata project chat last week.Technically, it should be a relatively simple change, querying for "wbsetdescription" instead of "wbsetsitelink-remove".(More generally, there is https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T141866 "Provide a way to filter Wikidata's recent changes for language-dependent content in specific languages", but that looks like a larger project.)On Tue, Apr 25, 2017 at 8:30 PM, Amir Ladsgroup <ladsgroup@gmail.com> wrote:Hey,
One common form of vandalism in Wikidata is removing sitelinks (we already
have an abuse filter flagging them).
One of my friends in Persian Wikipedia (who is not a wikidata editor and
only cares about Persian Wikipedia) asked me to write a tool that lists all
Persian Wikipedia sitelink removals. So I wrote something small and fast
but it's usable for any wiki. For example English Wikipedia:
http://tools.wmflabs.org/dexbot/tools/deleted_sitelinks.php?wiki=enwiki
It's slow due to nature of the database query but once it responds, you
might find good things to revert.
Since this is the most useful for Wikipedia editors who don't want to
patrol Wikidata (in that case, this query
is
the most useful) I'm reaching to wider audiences. Sorry for spamming.
