A code review system requiring approval of changes to more dangerous pages would probably have to allow local sysops to approve (for communities to accept it), but I don't see a code review system being useful unless the reviewers are chosen for technical skill and knowledge of Wikimedia coding conventions. And even if the large wikis were happy to have such a criteria, it's relatively easy for us to talk about that in English and German, but I think a lot of wikis in more obscure languages won't have enough people fitting that criteria. > _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
