There is a function of the AFC Helper Script that cleans or cleans up a submission. What exactly is the effect of this and when should it be done? [[User:Robert McClenon|Robert McClenon]] ([[User talk:Robert McClenon|talk]]) 06:32, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

:It "normalizes" the format of the page. If there's a pending template at the bottom of the draft, it moves it to the top; it also removes extra whitespace, does some formatting fixes, removes some HTML comments, and removes inapplicable templates like {{tl|User sandbox}}. You can see the full code [https://github.com/WPAFC/afch-rewrite/blob/master/src/modules/submissions.js#L490 here].

== Wording of Decline Template ==

== [[Draft: Dixien LLC]] ==

Something is wrong with [[Draft:Dixien LLC]]. I don't mean that the draft is promotional and contains peacock language and is badly formatted. All of those are true. What I mean is that if I try to clean the draft, to comment on the draft, or to decline the draft for any of those reasons, nothing happens. There may be something wrong with the AFC script notations in the draft. Can someone please look at it?

:It's not just that one; I'm having trouble reviweing other drafts too. An error with the script? [[User:Wikiisawesome|<span style="color:#600">/wia</span>]]🎄[[User talk:Wikiisawesome|<span style="color:#600"><small>/tlk</small></span>]] 20:11, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

::I'm having nothing happen when I try to review other drafts also. So there is something wrong with [[Draft:Dixien LLC]], but those are just issues that can be dealt with by declining, and there is also apparently a problem with the script. [[User:Robert McClenon|Robert McClenon]] ([[User talk:Robert McClenon|talk]]) 22:11, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

:::My problem with [[Dixien LLC]] has been solved. It was speedy-deleted. However, I still am having problems with the script. [[User:Robert McClenon|Robert McClenon]] ([[User talk:Robert McClenon|talk]]) 22:12, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

::::AFCH totally not working for me. Was working up to about 3-4 hours ago. Meaning work on AfC pretty much at a standstill. I'm making edits, but can't review. Will check back here for hoped-for solution. [[User:LaMona|LaMona]] ([[User talk:LaMona|talk]]) 22:22, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

{{ping|Robert McClenon|Wikiisawesome|LaMona}} Please try [[WP:Bypassing your cache|clearing your caches]] and reloading the script. A temporary fix has been put in place that should solve the issue for now. Sorry for the inconvience; it looks like there was an underlying MediaWiki change that the AFCH devs were not notified of...

== Multiple Decline Reasons? ==

Can the AFCH script be given a feature to allow the reviewer to select multiple decline reasons (as is the case, for instance, with speedy-deletion for multiple reasons)? Very often a draft is a BLP that does not have in-line citations and so does not establish [[WP:BIO|biographical notability]], or reads like an advertisement because it fails to establish [[WP:CORP|corporate notability]]. I think that, as a result, some submitters correct the one identified issue and think that is all that they needed to do. Can the script be modified to allow the reviewer to select two or more reasons? [[User:Robert McClenon|Robert McClenon]] ([[User talk:Robert McClenon|talk]]) 01:59, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

:{{tl|AfC submission}} needs to be changed first to support multiple decline parameters, which shouldn't take that long. Once we get that done it's definitely feasible, though [https://github.com/WPAFC/afch-rewrite/blob/master/src/modules/submissions.js#L1968 the code that actually declines the draft] might take some effort to change. Anyway, it's a great idea. [[User:APerson|APerson]]&nbsp;([[User talk:APerson|talk!]]) 17:04, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
