Hm. Keep in mind that the need for such functionality is to automate part of what administrators already do. Someone will still have to "approve" certain edits, and thus the issue of administrator quality of service is not addressed, the technolog-ese solution represents just an obfuscation. This is to say little of the behind-the article issue of collaboration and consensus.

Jimbo: "..while gently asking those who want to cause trouble to please go somewhere else.." would be better said as: "..while offering suggestions to difficult people of various kinds on how to improve their editing and along with their thinking and expression skills." It is of course great to see Jimbo expressing himself in a more general forum, where he can get out his insights into collaboration that are not limited to just Wikipedia or online documentation interfaces. -Stevertigo _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
