Summary: Cron script to check enWikipedia pages and alert staff on certain phrases Product: Wikimedia Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: Normal Component: General/Unknown AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: jalexan...@wikimedia.org CC: pbeaude...@wikimedia.org Writing at Philippe's request in the hope that someone at the Hack-a-ton this weekend can work on it. Because of the severity of threats of harm we want to try and create a way for staff members to be notified when one could require action. To do this we would like to create a script (perhaps on cron) to help. It would want to: * Search specific pages (At first English Wikipedia's Administrator Noticeboard (Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard) and the Incidents subpage (Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents) * Fetch the current copy of the page and look for specific phrases or words (example: 'bomb threat', 'suicide', 'threat of harm') * When a flagged word or phrase is found email specified people telling them a. That a flagged word had been found b. The word that was found (and if possible the name of the section where it was found) c. A link to the page (and if possible the section) where the word was found. * Not trigger another email if it sees the same phrase, in the same location, within the next x hours (2?) * Repeat the search every 5 minutes Obviously an interface wouldn't really be necessary (or a good use of time) but making it relatively easy for someone with the access to change would be great as well. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
