Update to redirect helper

I’d like to request an update to redirect-helper so that it recognizes new module-based categorization options for {{R from incorrect disambiguation}}. I recently created Module:Redirect template printability to centralize and standardize the logic behind redirect categorization. Currently, many redirect categorization templates have hardcoded their printworthiness status, which can lead to contradictory classifications when multiple rcats are applied to the same redirect. This module, in turn, provides a consistent logic decision tree and supports editor-specified overrides via |printworthy= and |unprintworthy= parameters.

Updating the gadget in this way would allow editors to toggle categorization directly from the helper’s dropdown menu, consistent with other rcats like {{R from miscapitalisation}}, while promoting the broader adoption of the module across Wikipedia’s redirect categorization landscape.

Current config (line ~2035 of redirect-helper.json)

"R from incorrect disambiguation": {
  "parameters": {},
  "aliases": [
    "R from incorrect disambig",
    "R id",
    "R incorrect disambiguation",
    "R wd",
    "R wrongdab",
    "Redirect from incorrect disambiguation",
    "Redirect id",
    "Redirect wd"
  ]
},

Proposed updated config

"R from incorrect disambiguation": {
  "parameters": {
    "printworthy": {
      "values": ["yes"],
      "label": "Force Printworthy"
    },
    "unprintworthy": {
      "values": ["yes"],
      "label": "Force Unprintworthy"
    }
  },
  "aliases": [
    "R from incorrect disambig",
    "R id",
    "R incorrect disambiguation",
    "R wd",
    "R wrongdab",
    "Redirect from incorrect disambiguation",
    "Redirect id",
    "Redirect wd"
  ]
},

Thanks for considering! Red Shogun412 (talk • contribs) 21:34, 22 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

redirect-helper pulls from templates' TemplateData normally found on their corresponding documentation subpages. I've added this to the template in this diff, and have re-run the function to update stored data in the JSON, seen in this diff. In the future, feel free to add/update TemplateData as I tend to update the data file weekly which will catch your changes (or you are welcome to ask me at any time). ~ Eejit43 (talk) 18:13, 23 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary account IP viewer granted

Hello, Eejit43. Per your request, your account has been granted temporary-account-viewer rights. You are now able to reveal the IP addresses of individuals using temporary accounts that are not visible to the general public. This is very sensitive information that is only to be used to aid in anti-abuse workflows. Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer for more information on this user right. It is important to remember:

• You must not share IP address data with someone who does not have the same access permissions unless disclosure is permissible as per guidelines listed at Foundation:Policy:Wikimedia Access to Temporary Account IP Addresses Policy.
• Access must not be used for political control, to apply pressure on editors, or as a threat against another editor in a content dispute. There must be a valid reason to investigate a temporary user. Note that using multiple temporary accounts is not forbidden, so long as they are not used in violation of policies (for example, block or ban evasion).

It is also important to note that the following actions are logged for others to see:

• When a user accepts the preference that enables or disables IP reveal for their account.
• Revealing an IP address of a temporary account.
• Listing the temporary accounts that are associated with one or more IP addresses (using the CIDR notation format).

Remember, even if a user is violating policy, avoid revealing personal information if possible. Use temporary account usernames rather than disclosing IP addresses directly, or give information such as same network/not same network or similar. If you do not want the user right anymore then please ask me or another administrator and it will be removed for you. You may also voluntarily give up access at any time by visiting Special:Preferences. Happy editing! Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:15, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
