Happy-melon <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED CC| |[email protected] Resolution| |WONTFIX --- Comment #5 from Happy-melon <[email protected]> 2010-04-13 12:20:05 UTC --- Technology is not a replacement for common sense, nor a guard against human stupidity. The AbuseFilter is not an internal guardian, it is for protecting against *external* vandalism. Giving people extended permissions implies a trust that they will use those permissions appropriately. If they are being used inappropriately, they should be removed. If they are being used inappropriately but local policy doesn't condone removal, you need to review the definition of "inappropriate" on your wiki. You're saying that you don't have a policy which prohibits edit warring, but you want to use technological means to prevent edit warring. That's totally backwards. Rollback is a feature which allows trusted users to rapidly revert vandalism. If your users are using rollback for other purposes, you have a problem with your users, not with the AbuseFilter.
