- In August 2022 ArbCom directed the community to conduct a Request for comment regarding article deletions at scale.
- Initial community input indicated an RfC regarding article creations at scale would be a helpful precursor, and ArbCom confirmed this was within scope.
- Discussion of structure and scope of the workshopping phase to develop this first RfC happened here.
- The workshopping began August 31 and ended September 10 at Wikipedia talk:Arbitration Committee/Requests for comment/Article creation at scale.
- RfC on article creation at scale began October 3, 2022 and was closed by the panel November 4 at WP:Arbitration Committee/Requests for comment/Article creation at scale/Closing statement. Closers requested a 7-day runoff to gain consensus for a multi-part question; that runoff began Nov 5 and was closed at Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee/Requests_for_comment/Article_creation_at_scale/Closing_statement#Update_after_the_run-off.
- The RfC on article creations at scale was announced at the articles for deletion talk page, the Arbitration Noticeboard, the administrators' noticeboard, the Bot policy talk page, Village pump (policy), Wikipedia talk:Notability, Centralized discussion, Notability (academics), Did you know, List of Wikipedians by article count and the wikiprojects Women in Red, Historic sites, Architecture, UK geography, Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers and Cheshire.
- The workshopping for the RfC on article deletions at scale is being held here; timeline for that RfC TBA.
- A discussion of how to define article creation at scale in anticipation of running an RfC started Nov 5 at idea lab.
