I like the idea of offering users significant projects in which to participate, like this one, which do not require a time commitment, and which give the participant a fun experience, and which gets immediate interaction from other users as a result of the participants' actions. WikiProject Deletion Sorting undoubtedly has a huge effect on all users' experience of Wikipedia and the results the project delivers do a lot to increase the community consent and review in the deletion process.

- Thanks for another great article. I am curious about this statement: "As the sheer number of AfDs continues to grow" I wonder if it is supported by statistics available somewhere (so that I am not told I am full of it next time I bring it up in discussion :-) Ottawahitech (talk) 03:44, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure if there are regularly updated statistics kept on this sort of thing, but the project's page claims that "Articles for deletion has grown far beyond human scale, with a throughput now approaching 1,000 pages per week and rising quickly." It shouldn't be difficult to find out, since there are daily logs you could sift through like this one for November 30. –Mabeenot (talk) 06:57, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Most active project "ranked by changes made to articles" is very misleading and irrelevant. It is not articles but projectspace logs that are being changed. Is there any work being done by this project or the WMF devs to make the delsort tools/gadgets work well in all browsers with the full list of projects? The tab tool works ok but it's annoying having to preload the projects into your .js file. Has anyone ever tried to get delsort incorporated into the WP:TW afd creation tool? There is no reason why it has to be a separate step. The-Pope (talk) 00:25, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
