How about giving admins the ability to throw up a
"Please read this"
message.
Something like this:
* User submits an edit
* Wikipedia accepts the edit, and...
* Sends user to a "You have an urgent administrative message" page.
User can then:
* Click on the "Read message" button, or
* Just ignore it
A good idea, but it would need to have at least a message queue to handle
multiple messages, so you arrive at an internal messaging system.
Unfortunately, this would have to be a bit of a hack, as IPs expire rather quickly. With
cookies it could be done more reliably but not in all cases. Anyway, I think
there's little opposition to more advanced messaging/ban/revert features, they
just haven't been coded so far.
Regards,
Erik
