So, in http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=pagetriage-curation&user=&page=&year=&month=-1&tagfilter=&hide_patrol_log=1&hide_review_log=1 for example - "db-g12 tag" gives you the template name but not what it actually is. It would be good if we could have the "english" names for what the tag does, with a link through to their CSD entry or whatnot. This would expand to edit summaries when adding the tags as well - I'm happy to add a new column to the spreadsheet we've got :).
We initially wanted to show the english names, but it made the log items really long, and Benny got a request from internationalization that we stick to the current tags for now. One possible solution would be to provide a short link in every log item ('learn more' or 'what does this mean?') to a short conversion table that shows what the tag means, using the same labels we now use in the curation toolbar. Note that we should probably also put the '(db-g12)' tags at the end of the gray text description for each tag in the curation toolbar, for clarity.
It would be a fair bit of work to use descriptions rather than the template names, especially for them to be localized.
As discussed in our weekly meeting, we plan to implement a compromise on this, which is to create redirects with readable names (e.g.: 'Speedy deletion - notability'). The goal is that Oliver will propose a set of readable names overnight, so that Kaldari or Benny can implement on Tuesday.
I would be nice to keep them relatively concise, as these will also be used in the edit summaries. For example: Nominated page for deletion using Page Curation (csd-notability, csd-hoax)
Grand :). For proposed deletion and AfD, is there any way we could include the deletion rationale, up to N characters? 150 or whatnot.
Now added; see the spreadsheet.
Thanks, Oliver. Can you clarify which spreadsheet you added this info in and where? I cannot find it in this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/a/wikimedia.org/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiGAdIp7VYlbdFhVWE0tcTlfZXdNSTNIZ21EdllpV0E#gid=2
That would be the "tag" column.
Cool, thanks. I widened that Column C to make it more visible in the Articles worksheet. Also, note that there were some text changes in columns B and D that were not made to the final product, so perhaps we could make those changes at the same time? (I highlighted the ones I know about in green, there may be more).
