Treat the concurrent session as a single revision and the combined work product of all participating editors.

There's a concurrent editing interface? Where is it (intended to be) used? It would never work for Wikipedia. The lack of a clear revision history and identifiable authors would be a big problem. It would also interfere with collaboration between people that aren't online at the same time (imagine three people are active on an article, two of which are online at the same time and so use the concurrent interface, how does the third person get involved?). _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
