--- Comment #16 from [email protected] 2009-05-26 17:27:32 UTC --- Many deletions are automatic, and the vast majority of them are not checked. We generally trust our sysops, but we should still consider potential mistake and abuse when implementing a new functionality. The fact this topic has been surrounded by controversy makes it even more needed. Yet, this is not the primary reason justifying a separate log, but simply because those actions are not of the same type, and sufficiently different technically and in use. One will generally want to check 'page deletions' and not 'revision deletions', or vice-versa. Not having the differentiation would be more time consuming due to the volume of operations. Incidentally, I don't see what negative effects this could have. We have four quasi-unused log types on enwiki (merge, import, global rights and global account), and this is not seen as a big problem. But this one would be much more used. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
