Wishlists[edit]

These are the offical WDM wishlists - this effectively summarises the information in the feature request page, and separates it into requests for specific parts of the software. Generally, WDM mods will add to this list what they read on the feature request page.


AfD Wishlist[edit]

  • A feature to nominate articles for deletion, and carry out the appropriate steps
  • Automatically check that the author has been notified, and the link in the article is correct
  • Notify author and add message on article talk page
  • Scientific journal listings search on subject
  • Alexa search
  • List of all URLs within the article
  • List of all books referenced
  • List of all scientific papers referenced
  • Articles linking to this one list
  • Choice to not watch the AfD after you have "voted".
  • Automatically close AfD's (feature will require approval by one of the moderators).

CfD Wishlist[edit]

Categories for Discussion is the next process to be supported in WDM - of course it is inherentley different from AfD - mainly in that there are comparitively few entries per day and also that the results are far less frequently "delete" - more often being something like "merge" or "rename". As there are fewer entries per day, it should be easier to look for bad namings in the WDM list, and comment on them in the discussion itself.

  • Number of articles in category to be displayed
  • Number of links to the category to be displayed
  • Number of edits to the category to be displayed
  • Number of categories of which the category is a member
  • Number of sub-categories in the category
  • Perhaps a web search to discover notability (?) (depends of course on subject matter of category)
  • Perhaps a spelling check on the title (however, may be unnessecary baggage for something which can be done just bye reading! - perhaps use retf (by Mboverload (I think)).

Program appearance and generic functions[edit]

  • Analytics (how influential is a given voter?)
  • Clear search engine results list when another AfD page loaded
  • Sort the list
    • Chronologically
    • by column values
  • Specific and dynamic tab names
  • Save display preferences across sessions
    • Remeber last XfD participated in, and open to that
    • Remember custom input into the "Stance" combo box
  • Back (navigation) button
  • Remove whitespace from the end of submissions
