Hi everyone, I'm preparing a patch against FlaggedRevs which includes changes that Howie and I worked on in preparation for the launch of its deployment onto en.wikipedia.org . We started first by creating a style guide describing how the names should be presented in the UI: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Flagged_protection_and_patrolled_revisions/Terminology
Then we sat down and did the string substitution. I've got some double checking left to do, but it's pretty much ready for deployment. I've put the patch here for now: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23623 The original plan that Aaron and I hatched up was that I would check in the changes into trunk, and then he would fix. However, seeing the"FlaggedRevs - Do you forget about other projects? " thread on foundation-l gave me pause: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2010-May/thread.html#58577 We fully recognize that the strings we plan to use on en.wikipedia.orgprobably don't make sense in a lot of different contexts, even English language wikis. We really want to get this release out the door, but we don't want to leave a huge mess in the process. Is there an expedient but correct-enough approach to solving this problem?
