            Bug ID: 44840
           Summary: Automatically mark as patrolled an 'undo'-edit
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Patrolling

If someone (on nl:wiki) undoes an edit by clicking on 'undo', that edit (NOT
the undo-edit self) should be marked as patrolled automatically. Even if it's
undone by an anonymous user. Reason: if an edit is undone, that edit IS
checked, either by a logged in user or anonymous user. And if it stays
unpatrolled, that edit (even though it's reverted already) will appear at our
anonymous-edits-checking. It means that double work is needed for something
that is NOT needed. It has benefits for two usergroups: the one that reverts
the edit by 'undo' doesn't need to go back and mark that edit as patrolled, ánd
the edit doesn't appear anymore for the anonymous-edits-checking.
I know that this option is more or less incorporated in the 'rollback'-function
(i am a rollbacker myself), but you must be a logged-in user for that, need to
sign up for that, and not every user wants to do those things. Plus, this must
be installed also for anonymous users. 
Recap: every edit that is undone by the 'undo'-button should be marked
automatically, NOT the 'undo'-edit itself.
