The whole batch from January to May 2005 was small enough that it didn't warrant writing extra code, so I was going to do an AWB run to normalize it to the 2005-2009 style, but I figured as long as I was firing up JWB I might as well bring it all the way into the future, so those hundred-and-change now use the modern style (with Signpost-article-header-v2).

I am currently working through a massive JWB run to amend all back issues with the modern header template that formats titles and author metadata in a sensible fashion, among other things (and while I'm at it, I am updating [[User:JPxG/The Illuminated Signpost]]). Anyway, everything through mid-2006 is done now.
 
== Validation ==
To find weird edge-cases and messed up pages, I have written a new script, validator.py, which outputs to the following page:
* [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Technical/Index validation]]
This displays all of the entries in year indices that are missing fields -- a summary table is at the top, and then it lists all the individual articles with errors. You can ignore the gigantic numbers for 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 (I am still reformatting them to have parseable titles and authors): from 2010 to present the missing fields are actual errors. Most of them are just articles without tags, for which some help would be appreciated. I have noticed some strange behavior, though. {{ping|Mr. Stradivarius}} Is there a reason that the SignpostTagger isn't showing a "manage tags" box for old articles, like [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia ignpost/2005-12-12/Welcome RSS readers]]? I looked through the .js and I didn't see anything that looked like it was excluding articles by year. '''[[User:JPxG|jp]]'''×'''[[User talk:JPxG|g]]''' 22:36, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
