Bleh. Well, at least it's *something*. I did a headcount the other week of all the OTRS simple vandalism and "uncomplicated" BLP tickets I handled - ie, all the ones not needing digging and arguing with people and so on. 80-90% of them would have been avoided by flagged revisions. This leaves lots of BLP stuff (the systematic POV problems, etc) that it wouldn't address, certainly, but I reckon at a stroke it would pre-empt a good *third* of our email load. It'd probably prevent even more by proportion if we turned on a "report this" function, since that'd heavily be skewed towards vandalism. Enabling both, together, would be excellent. But I think making it something for after we get the thrice-blesséd FlaggedRevs might be the most efficient approach. -- - Andrew Gray andrew.g...@dunelm.org.uk _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
