Guideline and policy news

• A request for comment found consensus that incubation as an alternative to deletion should generally only be recommended when draftification is appropriate, namely 1) if the result of a deletion discussion is to draftify; or 2) if the article is newly created.

Technical news

• The filter log now provides links to view diffs of deleted revisions (phab:T261630).

Arbitration

• The 2020 CheckUser and Oversight appointment process has begun. The community consultation period will take place from September 27th to October 7th.
• Following a request for comment, sitting Committee members may not serve on either the Ombuds Commission or the WMF Case Review Committee. The Arbitration Committee passed a motion implementing those results into their procedures.

Miscellaneous

• The Universal Code of Conduct draft is open for community review and comment until October 6th, 2020.
• Office actions may now be appealed to the Interim Trust & Safety Case Review Committee.

Protected edit request on 5 October 2020

I noticed that the link to your paper is dead. Here is a Wayback link to rescue it. Thanks for writing the paper, by the way. I found it very useful. Sam at Megaputer (talk) 16:59, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

 Not done if Cobi want's to change his userpage he is certainly welcome to of course, but we don't need patrolling admins to deal with this. — xaosflux ^Talk 20:01, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

I probably shouldn't have used an edit request to present my suggestion. Sorry. I do hope he makes the change, though. This kind of stuff can be quite useful. Sam at Megaputer (talk) 18:04, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

• Colbi: First I would like to congratulation you on Cluebot NG. It is an incredibly impressive feat of engineering, and I'm not surprised that it's been the top anti-vandalism bot for ten years. However, at ten years old it has aged quite a bit and I think it is time for an upgrade. I am trying to produce that upgrade, and right now I'm in search of data. I have located two good datasets (here and here) that may help, but I would really like to have access to the dataset that Clubot NG trained on. My search has led me to believe that it's on a MySQL file somewhere, but I'm having some difficulty accessing it. Any help you could send my way would be much appreciated.
