Difference between revisions of "PeerReview"

Proposal

To maintain this site's quality, we give people the tools to do so, after all, a small group of staff can't do it alone.

• Anonymous editor

• Login, can move (rename) pages, upload images, watch pages, be emailed from the site - Why create an account?

• AutoPatrolled, a permissions group which has auto patrols edits, meaning that the persons edits are automatically deemed constructive and not needing review of each one.

• SiteReviewers - gives auto patrolled folks an extra tools to help with maintaining site quality, i.e to deem an edit constructive
  • peerrev - is removed (superceded by SiteReviewers)

• InterWiki - people who are interested in linking the wiki world in AboutUs by maintianing the InterWiki table

• System Administrator (sysop), can make AutoPatrolled and SiteReviewers, and delete and NoBot pages

• Bureaucrats - ability to create bureaucrats and sysops, and rename people

Discussion

Currently this is called RecentChanges patrol - there is some movement to get away from the patrolling "bad" edits ideology and to review peer edits.

pros/cons for deletion ability

pros

• category pages
• junk pages
• request for deletion
• adult images
• deletion log can be a way to monitor this as well as recent changes and would be auto patrolled.

cons

• it's concerning when a non trafficked page can be deleted with virtually no oversight
• by needing to check deletion log and recent changes it is creating more work.
• it is an action that doesn't show up on a watched list.
• deletion is not a fundamental issue for the site currently
