Hi everyone,

We are currently planning to roll out a new version of the FlaggedRevs
extension to all wikis on Tuesday, November 23 starting roughly 3:15pm
PST (23:15 UTC). This is used for Pending Changes on en.wikipedia.org
and Flagged Revisions on many other wikis (such as de.wikipedia.org
and pl.wikipedia.org). The update sports a new reject button[1], some
diff page load optimizations to help complicated diff pages load
faster by displaying the diff prior to displaying the old revision[2],
and many under-the-hood code improvements.

We have several test environments in place with FlaggedRevs/Pending
Changes configured:

1.16wmf4 core + trunk FlaggedRevs extension (this is the closest to
what we plan for our production environment):
* en.wikipedia.org: http://prototype.wikimedia.org/flaggedrevs/
* de.wikipedia.org: http://prototype.wikimedia.org/flaggedrevsde/
trunk core + trunk FlaggedRevs extension (this contains several
changes that won’t be deployed for a while, in addition to the updated
FlaggedRevs extension):
*  de.wikipedia.org: http://prototype.wikimedia.org/de.wikipedia.org/
*  pl.wikipedia.org: http://prototype.wikimedia.org/pl.wikipedia.org/

Please let us know if you have any problems with this.

Rob
