Jesús Martínez Novo <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #35 from Jesús Martínez Novo <[email protected]> 2011-04-21 18:53:24 UTC --- I felt also interested on it, but thinking on the day-by-day edits on a Wiki, I think that a blame/annotate SVN/CVS-like feature is not feasible in a MediaWiki installation, specially in a public one where vandalism is common. The annotation feature makes sense on a controlled development system where changes are not very huge. But here at Wikimedia (and other public wikis) where we deal with vandalism, it's common for vandals to blank pages or large sections of a page. That defeats the whole annotation system, since all lines would be marked as changed. Instead, the idea of Steve Bennett at Comment 26 (posted on Bug 9455) would be more useful here, which only needs a text or pattern search of every revision text. That could also be implemented using JavaScript, retrieving every revision text trough the API and doing the search. Bug 9455 was closed as resolved duplicated of this one, but I think it's worth to reopen it and probably think of implementing it if this one wouldn't be implemented. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
