Hi! I've added to MediaWiki a feature which could
be an alternative to page
protection: the verify feature. I've added to the sysops' bar a
'verify'/'unverify' button: 'verify' sets the current revision
as
'verified'. When there is a 'verified' revision, users can still edit
the
page, but new revisions are not shown until a sysops verifies it again (of
course, even new revisions can be accessed though the history, and the
verified one, if any, is in bold).
'Unverify', of course, removes the protection.
I think this would be a very good alternative to page protection against
vandals.
I would like to heard what do you think of it.
Sounds good :) The first place where it should be applied is to images -
for copyright reasons more than anything else.
