In the meantime, I think having the orphan label is useful for judging the likelihood that an article is needed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36606 --- Comment #3 from Ryan Kaldari rkald...@wikimedia.org 2012-07-24 22:04:09 UTC --- The purpose of the orphan label isn't really to indicate a problem with the article itself, rather it lets the reviewer know that there is a high probability that the article is not on a notable subject (as none of the 4 million other articles on Wikipedia have tried to link to that topic). If you look at the NewPagesFeed on en.wiki, you'll see that only about 1 in every 4 or 5 new articles is an orphan. Making this information completely accurate, however, is difficult, as you would have to constantly monitor every edit to all 4 million articles to see if any of them had added a link to any new articles. This would be an extra quarter million queries per day with little benefit. The way it's working currently is to look for incoming links every time the new article is saved and to update the metadata then if necessary. This is probably good enough for most purposes, but won't always be up to date. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36606 --- Comment #1 from bs...@wikimedia.org 2012-05-08 18:42:21 UTC --- If an article X is not referenced in any other wiki articles, then it's considered to be an Orphan article, Adding link to the body of article X won't remove the 'Orphan' status, I think this is how we define Orphan: incoming links other than outgoing links To get up-to-date accurate data, we would need to compile all the articles referenced in an article during a save. In this case, we would need to compile all the articles referenced in Rue_(The_Hunger_Games), this is bad if there are thousands of articles referenced in here. I am also wondering if 'Orphan' is useful here, new articles would mostly likely be 'Orphan' since no one would really reference them, -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36606 --- Comment #2 from Fabrice Florin fflo...@wikimedia.org 2012-05-08 20:58:45 UTC --- Thanks, Benny, you make a good point that most articles will be orphaned by default, at least initially (unless they were created as a result of clicking on a red link). Note that I was able to confirm on prototype and testing that if I add a link in article X to to article Y, both article X and Y remain labeled as orphans. You are correct that article X should remain an orphan, but I would have expected article Y to lose its orphan label. As of yesterday, this was not happening. If this is really hard to do, we should probably postpone this feature -- and remove the word 'orphan' from the user interface until we can properly back it up. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
