Krinkle <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from Krinkle <[email protected]> --- There's five different things at play here: * Enable wgUseRCPatrol: This activates the system that shows [mark as patrolled] links to users who have the "patrol" user right (only sysops at the moment[1]). * Grant autoconfirmed the "patrol" and "autopatrolled" right: This will allow users with a 4-day old account to patrol edits. I highly recommend against this as this would allow a patient vandal to patrol bad edits, and since edits can't be unpatrolled and only 1 patrol action is required, it would basically allow the vandal to bypass patrol completely. However including the following, this is less insane. * Set wgAutoConfirmAge to 30 days: This isn't explicitly mentioned here, but is implied and fundamental. The default on foundation wikis is 4 days. The project page[3] says "30 day old accounts". Right now this is not the case. In summary, to do right now: * Enable wgUseRCPatrol Later: * Either: ** Set wgAutoConfirmAge to 30 days, and: ** Grant autoconfirmed the "patrol" and "autopatrolled" right * Or: ** Create a "patroller" user group, grant it "patrol" and "autopatrolled". ** Add "patroller" to list of groups sysops can grant ** Wikivoyage admins can now give non-sysops the ability to help in patrol. * Or: ** Create a "patroller" user group, grant it "patrol" and "autopatrolled". ** Create a new AutoPromote instance (besides "autoconfirmed") that is, unlike autoconfirmed, set to 30 days.
