Significant 100+ edits wiped out from WP:AN
Surprised to show up this morning to find two of my edits deleted from WP:AN, and then found that over 100 edits for multiple editors (including admins) were deleted spanning a block of 16 hours and multiple sections. Seem's like either an oversized-mop was used, or an accident occurred here. TiggerJay (talk) 16:04, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Tiggerjay: That link is not so useful I'm afraid :) SerialNumber54129 16:47, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Agreed, although I'm not sure a better way, since it was literally every page history entry for a 16 hour period, and the date filter would almost be useless since it spanned into today. TiggerJay (talk) 19:41, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Tiggerjay as per the section above #Edit summaries wiped out, Someone on the oversight team has suppressed a number of revisions. If it was something that had been there for some time then that will have required a lot of revisions to be covered in the suppression. Nthep (talk) 16:55, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- I wish we could rebase edits so we didn't have to do this, but nobody seems to agree with me. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:37, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Destined to fail on two counts I'm afraid: a) it involves actual change, and b) it's a good idea. SerialNumber54129 17:47, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Third count: for huge pages like ANI it's not technically possible with the software as it currently stands. It is technically possible, albeit a total pain, for smaller pages. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:58, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

- I saw that one from a few days ago (and other similar instances) but that spanned a several minutes and less than a dozen edits, this was many hours and over a hundred different edits. It was just astonishing to see so much blown away that it must have been a mistake, but I guess that is the only choice when something egregious isn't suppressed right away. Given that way most ANI discussions occur its unfortunate that a more selective revdel cannot be used since individual edits don't frequently span other conversations.

Editable archives
It seems that the ANI archive pages (e.g. Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1173) have section edit links. This is not normal on archive pages: is it something special to ANI, or a mistake somewhere? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:00, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe {{Administrators' noticeboard navbox all}} can be taught to emit the flag to inhibit that, iff transcluded onto a "subpage" (or "a subpage containing the string 'archive'")? DMacks (talk) 20:43, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- That wasn't too hard. Which means I probably broke something as a side-effect. Trouts of various sizes welcome as appropriate. DMacks (talk) 16:01, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
- Well, it's suppressed the edit links, so
Thank you for that. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:05, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

Broken code in blue "Administrators' Noticeboard/Incidents" box
At the bottom of it:
Closed discussions are usually not archived for at least 24 hours. Routine matters might be archived more quickly; complex or controversial matters should remain longer. Sections inactive for 72 hours are archived automatically by Lowercase sigmabot III. Editors unable to edit here are sent to the /Non-autoconfirmed posts subpage.

Pretty sure the "|- | class= " etc. bit isn't supposed to be there. -The Bushranger One ping only 04:51, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
- @The Bushranger: I think I fixed it. Jip Orlando (talk) 17:20, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
