Summary: Change conflict issues on highly active pages
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: Page editing
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
* Highly active pages (talk pages in particular) have issues with edit
conflicts - issues that could be resolved by a careful time-limited (and
high-activity only) application of a lock-out feature. Such lock outs would be
short, perhaps of only 1 or 2 minutes, but would give continuing/interrupting
editors notice, and possibly cue submitted talk comments as diff patches - all
in an ordered sequence that minimizes change conflicts.
* When an change "edit" conflict occurs, the presented fields both contain full
article text, which negates the editing (and databasing) benefits/functionality
of section editing, and compounds the difficulty in re-collecting added
comments from the bottom field, finding the exact section and place where it
belongs, and re-adding it.
