::Perhaps. Should I remove the comment to you, then? I simply wanted to convey that we’ve been arguing about stuff-that-is-not-what-I-said, and it’s waste of everybody’s time that isn’t fixing anything. I cced you on the regex discussion; fixing “a eu” -> “an eu” would at least be some progress. I expect a phone call at any minute so I can’t do a deep dive this second. I actually don’t object to accurate automation; somebody seems to be running a tool that fixes <nowiki><ref></ref>.</nowiki>, otherwise an annoying and tedious task. I will get back to you on the regex thing, thanks. [[User:Elinruby|Elinruby]] ([[User talk:Elinruby#top|talk]]) 20:37, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

::aha, the comment you are talking about was in the section I just deleted as irrelevant , right? If you feel there is something else I should do to be fair, please do let me know.

    questions about NPP bot

    @MB: Quck question. Is there a specific dedicated piece of software that is used for NPP? It sounds like you watch the feed. What I am trying to establish right now is whether NPPers use an attended interface like Twinkle, or whether it's more akin to a spider doing batch processing, in which case the check I have proposed will not work. Thanks. Elinruby (talk) 14:24, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    NPPers watch the feed. Some reviewers look at the oldest unreviewed articles first, some look at newest, some start in the middle, some look as specific article types or subject area. Yes, there is a tool we use filter the feed and help with other reviewer actions. MB 14:47, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for that answer, and I apologize for the delay in answering you; I had a connectivity issue. I think it would be best if I took a look at the feed interface before asking further questions, and am putting that on my list of things to do. Elinruby (talk) 19:58, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It's at Special:NewPagesFeed and it's accompanied by a full set of excellent sophisticated tools that have been in use since 2012 and which I also helped to develop. You can see them here but you do not have the access right to use them. There are around 750 accredited New Page Reviewers, more if you count around 1,100 admins who automatically have access. None of them are expected to be polyglot. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:59, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Kudpung: please do not post any further to my user page, as I find you insulting, and apparently it’s mutual. I will ask my questions elsewhere. Elinruby (talk) 19:54, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    (edit conflict) (ec note: The following comment was originally composed in response to this post at section § Jublains archeological site; adding it here instead)
    Without taking a position on the merits, it's unfair to make a comment like that that about another editor, while simultaneously disinviting him from posting on your Talk page (next sectionabove) as it gives him no opportunity to defend himself. As this is your Talk page, I'm sure Kudpung would have the grace to give you the last word, even if he didn't agree with you (in fact, he has done so above previously, in his statement about disengaging, which imho you misread as a desire not to answer, but which I read as a desire not to fight with you). Imho, it's fine to ask someone not to post on your page, but in that case, decency and fairness requires you to no longer post potentially negative comments about them, which makes the post above a cheap shot. I hope that as long as Kudpung is disinvited from your page, you'll never mention his name again; that would be the decent thing. As far as regex questions, fire away!
