[07:04:06] on the subject, would any WR mind taking a gander at [[User:Crystalite13/reviews]]? [07:04:06] [18:41:56] Sounds good, one of our currently serving volunteers may also be up for nominating you if things go well. [18:43:19] Doesn't guarantee success, but an early vote of confidence from an existing volunteer never hurts [20:26:49] Sorry for the disorganisation of this page, I was wondering if somebody could give me feedback on Requests 7, 10, and 11. Thanks in advance. [[User:Amanda_Uranium-Explosion/Practice_Wiki_Requests]] [20:26:50] [22:40:59] I'm kind of wonderng if I should do some and then see how I measure up to the baseline [22:42:11] the problem with me is I kind of approach from the reverse model of what are palpable risks the request suggests and is there a reason to not approve outright [22:42:51] and the final bit, if I do ask questions, what value will I receive from them and what is the most direct path to useful information [22:46:40] it was nicer in my time doing reviews when I could join servers to do the upfront vibe check but that shouldn't be obligatory for reviewers and discord has made that harder [23:31:43] Feedback given [23:31:58] Heh, me reviewing your reviews would be a very odd exercise. [23:36:28] certainly might be interesting [23:37:44] We both lean lighter on questions, especially when it comes to well-known categories of wikis where we intuitively know there's low risk of policy violations [23:38:11] If it won't meaningfully impact my ability to reach a decision on how a project fits inside policy, it doesn't need to be ask. [23:38:54] (No dig against the reviewers that are more question-heavy, caution is always good especially when you haven't developed a strong feel for which projects tend to be enforcement problems) [23:41:39] thanks you [23:41:42] a lot of the time my substitute is me straight up looking up the content and if I find and have a grasp of what they're on about, and the rest seems adequate, the odds greatly improve for me [23:41:52] but if that cannot be established that is where I am more prone to inquiry [23:41:52] Oh 100% [23:42:08] If I can do a quick google and see they're on the level, that goes a long way. [23:42:12] I used to browse discord servers where applicable as a vibe check but discord has enjoyed making that less trivial now [23:42:31] It also makes for an interesting search history - based recommendation set for the AI overlords. 😄 [23:42:55] oh that is typically given the sanitized glove treatment [23:43:11] Getting it to stop recommending that 'physical anthropology' crap was a whole exercise. [23:43:12] volunteers not wishing to dig into funny links are welcome to pass it to me for that reason [23:43:34] give it the straight up qubes dispvm treatment [23:43:34] Yeah, I wouldn't wish the odder twists of my search history on any volunteer that doesn't know what they're signing up for. [23:43:48] I've since started employing better filtering/handling [23:44:09] yeah there is probably room for an opsec guide in particular for detached research purposes [23:44:16] and a lot is possible without going to my degree [23:50:12] Absolutely
