Highly viewed articles, especially those on the main page, receive a high
amount of traffic everyday, which results in a lot of edit conflicts.
Maybe.
This
issue is one of the main things which needs to be considered about
enWiki:
Definitely not.
TAFI,
which will be going to the Main Page soon.
[[Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement]]?
It's not on the main page, so there isn't any proof this is really a problem.
If there was a way to track just the number of edit conflicts (and maybe the
percentage of those conflicts which were resolved - Resolved implying
another
edit by the same user within 10 minutes.),
Your definition of resolved is weird: a resolved edit conflict is one which
gets automatically merged or suppressed by MediaWiki, or one where the user
manually merges the edits, in short any edit conflict resulting in a saved
edit.
Perhaps you're talking of edit conflicts where the user just saves the own
version killing the last edit, only to recover it later?
it would be really helpful in
tracking down the efficiency of handling them, and to figure out how to deal
with them.
What about telling users to write edit conflict in their edit summary when
they do something as unkind as what above?
Or maybe, if you better defined what sort of occasions you're talking about, we
could find a way to automatically detect them and file another bug about adding
a tag ([[mw:Manual:Tags]]) to such edits, but it seems unlikely.
It's not clear what the stated problem actually is and the suggested solution
(cluttering who knows what place with some obscure information of little or n
interest for most people) is not acceptable, so I'm marking this rejected to
save your time.
Feel free to reopen if you can clarify the rationale, or to adopt the tagging
proposal above and file a new bug.
