Summary information for editors
|
This page serves to document and centralize some issues related to the conduct and evaluation of the trial. The trial will last for two months and then a community discussion will decide the future of the implementation, the default being deactivation.
(updated 2010-11-15) - We are currently planning to roll out a new version of the FlaggedRevs/Pending Changes wikis to all wikis on Tuesday, November 23 sometime shortly after 3:15pm PST (23:15 UTC). This will have the new reject button, some new Javascript to help complicated diff pages load faster, and many under-the-hood code improvements.
We're currently tracking the list of items we intend to complete in Bugzilla. You can see the latest list in Bugzilla, and get more detailed information on the WMF development project page for Pending Changes.
We are initially applying the trial configuration of Flagged Protection to, at most, 2000 articles (though the precise figure could be adjusted as the trial proceeds). This is because:
If performance takes a hit, the ops team may roll back Flagged Protection to fewer articles (mechanism TBD), rather than shutting off the feature altogether. If things are going well on both the performance and community norm fronts, the operations team may increase the limit during the trial. There are not currently plans for a limit after the trial period. However, there may need to be some mechanism in place to prevent drastic increases in the number of articles placed under Flagged Protection to safeguard site performance.
