Lydia said that, for new visitors who have never edit before, the situation of editing several data entries on the item at once should be quite uncommon; Arthur also pointed out that we can always add disabling other edit buttons later if we want. So we decided that: - For normal edits (mainly statements), just redirect away after the API request. (Option 1A above.) In practice, it should be quite rare for this to result in data loss. - If we get enough complaints, or otherwise see the need, we can later disable edit buttons for anonymous users after they start their first edit (Option 3 above). We also discovered that DiscussionTools does this even for logged-in users and regardless of IP Masking status – but we know that our power users would object if we did it for everyone. - For the legacy termbox, which makes a bunch of edits in rapid succession after clicking a single “save” button, redirect away after all those edits are done. (This is basically option 2 above, but with the difference that we’re not waiting for an indefinite amount of time until the user is done – we just wait until we’re done making all our API requests.) - The new mobile termbox (aka Termbox v2 and other names) makes a single edit, so we can redirect away just like for normal edits. - Option 4, not redirecting at all, is rejected, at least for code we’re responsible for. (WikibaseMediaInfo currently chooses this path, but should probably use one of the other options.)
