Wikipedia talk:Revision deletion/Statistics

Confusing terminology

The terminology related to "RevDelete" is confusing; making a report that quantifies actions related to "RevDelete" is naturally also confusing. From the script that's used to generate this report:

    {'name': 'Revision deletions',        'short_name': 'RD', 'type': 'delete',     'action': 'revision'},
    {'name': 'Event deletions',           'short_name': 'ED', 'type': 'delete',     'action': 'event'},
    {'name': 'Deletion suppressions',     'short_name': 'DS', 'type': 'suppress',   'action': 'delete'},
    {'name': 'Revision suppressions',     'short_name': 'RS', 'type': 'suppress',   'action': 'revision'},
    {'name': 'Event suppressions',        'short_name': 'ES', 'type': 'suppress',   'action': 'event'},
    {'name': 'Username suppressions',     'short_name': 'US', 'type': 'suppress',   'action': 'reblock'},

I don't really know (or remember) what some of these actions actually correspond to in the interface. Someone else probably does, though. --MZMcBride (talk) 04:12, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think this clarifies the first two items in the list of six above:

That seems to add a bit of clarity. --MZMcBride (talk) 04:22, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tag oversighters

Could we get oversighters signified somehow? (Presumably their actions require less scrutiny) –xeno^talk 12:53, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done. --MZMcBride (talk) 21:51, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
