Summary: Show wpReviewEdit checkbox when saving a sighted page
and you have review rights but not autoreview
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: FlaggedRevs
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
On the english Wikinews flagged revs set up, the editor groups does not have
the 'autoreview' right. (The idea is that some edits should be reviewed by
another person before being sighted).
If the article has not been reviewed, you are presented with a 'Accept changes
for this revision' checkbox (wpReviewEdit). If the article is sighted and you
are editing it, you are not presented with such a checkbox, because the edit
would normally be auto-sighted. However if you do not have 'autoreview' rights,
this does not happen. If the user has the right to review stuff, but not the
autoreview right, it makes logical sense in my opinion to present them with the
wpReviewEdit checkbox on the edit page, as its a similar case to if the
previous revision was not reviewed.
(Note: I'm filing this after someone asked me to make a javascript gadget that
did this ([[n:MediaWiki:Gadget-butMommyILoveItMyAutosight.js]]), because I
figure its something that should probably be done on the php side. There's also
some marginally-related discussion at
