Tracking recent changesSome of the best pages to track are trackable via your favorite RSS or atom reader. See Wikipedia:Syndication. User script to detect unreliable sourcesI have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
and turns it into something like
It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}. The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed. Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable.

They appear to have enough references to pass WP:NBASIC, but I could use some help researching them and fleshing out the draft articles.

Guerillero Parlez Moi 13:17, 18 October 2022 (UTC) A duty to inform constituents - NY 3rd DistrictFollowing the 2020 census New York State experienced a protracted and deeply partisan legal battle over redistricting to the point that officials had to push back the state primaries. According to the state Board of Elections, "Following the completion of the 2020 census, New York State has redrawn legislative districts for State Assembly, State Senate, and Congressional offices. New lines will take effect in January 2023. New York State voters will elect representatives for these new districts during the 2022 general election." (New York State Board of Elections, October 22, 2022). Wikipedia's legitimacy as a source may exceed that of political or governmental entities. This is why I believe that a note should be made to the main heading. A well informed constituency ensures a healthy democracy, therefore, Wikipedia needs to provide accurate and up to date information as it will affect the 3rd districts constituents for the next 2-5 years.

McHugh#Requested move 19 November 2022 Please have a look at the request for comment on the contents of lists of officeholders. I hope to discuss whether list articles should contain separate tables pointing out various distinctions (still alive, oldest ever, shortest term, highest number of votes, etc).
