User:Aymatth2/SvG clean-up/Guidelines gives gives guidelines for the clean-up of 16,104 articles about living people started by User:Sander.v.Ginkel (SvG) and debated at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive941#User:Fram. This process was closed on 24 April 2017 and all remaining draft articles were deleted. Following that, an audit of results will be undertaken to check that articles moved back to mainspace were in fact checked and corrected where needed.
This approach was challenged on 25 April 2017 and was confirmed at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive288#SvG articles – mass deletion.
The original definition of the audit approach was:
It was pointed out in subsequent discussions that one or two busy but careless editors would cause the careful work of many other editors to be lost. To address this issue,
Counts by editor | Add your name to entries you plan to audit, and add results after completed |
High volume (50+ moves) editor lists, with audit notes. The purpose of the audit is not so much to detect serious errors as to find failures to check articles against the sources. For example, an article may say Jane Doe was born on 3 March 1954 and is a former weightlifter, but the source says she was born on 7 March 1954 and does not say she has retired. The error in the birthdate is minor and given her age she probably has retired, but that is a guess. If the article had been checked these errors would have been found and fixed.
