--- Comment #5 from James Forrester <[email protected]> 2012-11-23 21:09:07 UTC --- Max, The reason for knowing which edits come from which source is so where the bugs are likely to be (and has the bonus of being possible to do statistical analysis). Longer-term, as we make editing through the API easier, we'd like to move every user of the API to be labelled as the source (this is the approach taken by Twitter, for example). And of course, for the edit box to go through the API too, though that's more for sanity and security model than for tracking down bugs given how stable that code is. It's entirely possible that Tags aren't the best venue for this data, but it's what we have for now, and we can move to a better one later. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
