There's an ongoing poll at en.wiki[1] regarding a FlaggedRevs-type proposal.[2]
It combines 'flagged protection' with patrolled revisions as a compromise measure between full flagging and no flagging. The proposal is for a two-month trial. Just posting here mostly as a heads-up, but also in case anybody at the staff or Foundation level wishes to veto this preemptively or state any possible objections. It's uncertain whether this proposal will pass, however I really don't want to get into a situation where the proposal has on-wiki consensus but there are (previously unknown) objections at a higher level. Frustration levels are quite high regarding the quality of some of our content (notably biographies of living persons) and FlaggedRevs has been a long time coming. CC'ing Erik on this e-mail as he seems to be the point person regarding this.
