Bug #: 36775
Summary: Article Feedback - Throttling
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: ArticleFeedbackv5
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
To prevent spam, we will throttle all feedback posts to only allow 10 posts per
user per hour per article. If a user exceeds that limit, their post will be
disallowed and a message will be shown, saying: "Your post has been rejected
because you have recently posted more feedback than recommended in Wikipedia's
feedback guidelines. Please do not post feedback repeatedly or excessively."
This feature may be implemented using a cookie, to keep track of when users
posts feedback. For example, we may look at the timestamps of the last 10 posts
from that user, and reject the post if the first timestamp is less than an hour
ago.
Let's see if we can adapt the code from Moodbar to make this happen.
To be fleshed out here, as soon as we have a bit more feasibility study:
