In progress
Description
Especially newly created articles often have some minor problems like:
- missing categories
- missing connection to wikidata object
- missing authority control
- missing infoboxes
- links to disambiguation pages
- link to not existing or invalid commonscat
- missing reference tag
- headings without content
- spelling errors
- ...
Possible solution:
- Display warning massages to the users / creator of the article per default for all users when
- creating a new article
- saving an existing article
- moving a article from the user- or draft namespace to the article namespace
- activate various existing tools and gadgets like
- AutosuggestSitelink
- d:Help:Infobox export gadget
- en:Wikipedia:Disambiguation_detector (existing in various langugages)
