Issue with (and partial fix for) Nominations Viewer
Updates to the wikimedia html have broken your nominations viewer script a bit; see Wikipedia talk:Featured article review. The issue seems to be that h2 tags are now wrapped in divs. I've provided a fix in that thread for stopping it from swallowing the headers into the previous collapsed nomination, though the issue also removes the collapse all/expand all links as they can't find an h2 to attach to. -- Pres N  18:42, 24 January 2023 (UTC)


 * The script at WP:NOMV is fixed now. Gary (talk) 23:10, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

Temu flag fixes
Hi, There is a flag on the article for Temu (company), the most downloaded iPhone app in the United States the last few months. I work there so I have a COI. I have posted Talk:Temu (company) to deal with the last few issues in cleaning this article up so the flag can be removed. Since you are a member of the WikiProject for Internet, I thought you might possibly be interested in the topic. Thanks in advance for your consideration!

Orphaned non-free image File:Samus at the end of Metroid.png
Thanks for uploading File:Samus at the end of Metroid.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 04:41, 2 June 2023 (UTC)

Nominations viewer
Hi Gary, I don't think we've ever 'met' before, so hello! I have, however, seen your work in action with the nominations viewer. I've been mulling over its output and was wondering if a possible improvement is technically possible.

At the moment the output at FAC is as follows:
 * (nomination · 3 weeks old · Active today · 1 nominator · 6 participants · 2 supports)

Is there a way it can pick up and report when a source and image review has been passed or failed?


 * (nomination · 3 weeks old · Active today · 1 nominator · 6 participants · 2 supports · Pass source · Fail media)

The fields can remain empty until those technical reviews are undertaken, which will make it more clear which still need to be done. I'd need to run this through FAC talk to get buy-in from the wider community, but thought I'd see it it's technically viable before floating the idea more widely. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 09:35, 16 November 2023 (UTC)


 * If someone wants to build this feature, then go for it, but I don't have the time to do so. Most importantly, whoever is performing these reviews must follow a standard convention, so that it's easy for the script to pick up on it. Gary (talk) 17:40, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
