Help:New filters for edit review/Highlighting function/ja

“New filters for edit review”には、色を使って、特に興味がある編集を強調するための、ハイライトツールが含まれています. 正しくハイライト機能と以下で示しているテクニックを使えば、探している編集をより早く、簡単に見つけ出すことができるでしょう.

ハイライトの割当と解除
フィルターメニュー上部の「」ボタンをクリックします. すると、ペンアイコンのハイライトメニューが、すべてのフィルター項目に現れますので、強調したい項目のハイライトメニューを開いて、色を選択します. 選んだフィルター項目に合致するすべての編集は、選んだ色ですぐさまハイライトされます. 同時に、有効になっているフィルターを表示している領域では、強調しているフィルター項目に選択された色の丸点が表示されます.

ハイライトを終了するには、フィルタータグのXをクリックするか、ハイライトメニューを開いて、白丸を選択します.

Multiple highlights, blended colors
You can apply highlighting to as many properties as you like. You can use the same color on multiple properties or use different colors to distinguish the properties from one another. When a given edit is highlighted by more than one color (because it possesses more than one highlighted property), the system highlights that edit with a blend of the relevant highlight colors. For example, yellow and blue highlights will blend to make green.

In addition to applying a colored background to the edit results themselves, the system also displays colored dots next to all highlighted edits. One dot is shown for each color applied to that edit. These dots will help you to understand what colors make up a color blend.

When experimenting with highlight colors, you may want to take a moment to think about your color scheme. For example, if some of the the properties you’re highlighting are related, pick colors for them that are near one another on the color spectrum, such as orange and red or blue and green. If it’s likely that the highlights you’re assigning will result in color blends, pick colors that mix in a pleasing way. Doing so will make your results more meaningful and easier to understand.

Using highlights without filtering
You can filter for a property and highlight it at the same time, or you can use highlighting independently of the associated filter. To use highlighting independently, simply select a highlight color as above, but don’t check the box for the associated filter. This technique can be quite useful, enabling you to keep your search broad while, at the same time, helping you to pick out specific properties of interest.

Example: A new page patroller might wish to know whether new pages were created by registered or unregistered users. She could set filters for both ' and ', but then she’d see only edits that meet both of those conditions. Alternatively, she could:
 * 1) filter for 
 * 2) but simply highlight 

This allows her to easily spot the pages by unregistered users but to review  pages by registered users at the same time. (The Quality and Intent Filters page provides more guidance on using this technique.)

Highlighting in ‘Group changes by page’ mode
The “” preference does just what that name suggests: it displays all the changes to a single page (on a single day) in a group. When multiple changes for a page exist, only a “summary line” for the whole group is shown. To see all the changes, users click a small, right-facing arrow next to the summary line, which expands the list of changes.

Highlighting works a little differently in “group by page” mode. When all items in a group have a consistent highlight color—as in the green group at right—the summary line for the whole group gets that same, consistent color. When items within a group are not consistent, however—as in the blue and yellow group at right—the summary line is gray. Users looking for a particular color of highlight can still tell that the color they seek is in a particular group by looking at the colored dots to the left of the summary line. In the example, these are blue and yellow—one dot for each color represented in the group.

About colors
The highlighting function provides five color options (blue, green, yellow, orange and red). Considering that highlight is an extra layer of information on top of the filtered results, you probably don't need to use more than two colors at a time. However, the five options provided (with common and distinct associated meanings) allows you to clarify the intent of your specific case. For example, it may be more intuitive to highlight vandalism in red and edits by newcomers in blue than the other way around.

The specific shades of each color are based on the Wikimedia color palette, where accessibility considerations have been taken into account when selecting the colors. This results on a reduced palette with enough contrast among colors, which allows them to be blended into new colors and still provides color-blind users a reasonable set of distinct enough colors to choose from.
