Aaron,

Not sure if the mail I got this morning means FlaggedRevs is enabled on en.Wikinews, but I want to check up on a few little details and make sure we’re ready to go with it.

In the mess of nested templates that make up our front page, we have the following code to keep the latest news at the top of the main page…

{{Wikinews:{{#time:Y/F/j|+1 days}}}}

{{Wikinews:{{#time:Y/F/j}}}}

In the page that causes today’s stories to be listed, we have the following:

<DynamicPageList>

category=Published

category=August 5, 2008

notcategory=Disputed

notcategory=No publish

suppresserrors=true

</DynamicPageList>

This is bot generated (I could grumble about how it didn’t used to be – but will count my blessings instead).

Google tells me http://semeb.com/dpldemo/DPL:Manual is the DPL manual, but I see no mention of the FlaggedRevs indication there.

What I expect is that the DPL that CalendarBot creates will need an extra parameter, something like “flag=Quality”. Since I’ll need to chase up getting this mod done, can you tell me what the revised DPL would look like?

Also, the request I submitted was for sighted plus quality. The idea is quality on the main page and sighted on the less-trafficked Portals (Eg http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Portal:Science_and_technology).

The DPL there is as follows,

<DynamicPageList>

category=published

category=Science and technology

count=10

suppresserrors=true

addfirstcategorydate=true

</DynamicPageList>

How would this change to only show sighted revisions?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer this, and – again - thanks for being so fast to update DPL.
