Interesting indeed. Point 5 is promising - a content-flagging system. Do you know what's planned for this? It seems like it might be more broadly usable...
I think that would only be part of the toolserver interface, sorry. :)
IIRC Magnus started to put together something like a 'copyright flagging' interface. It would be very good to have that. (and as distinct from a quality rating property.)
I did? Really? Good to know ;-)
Well, I started a rating system, as described in your wikitech-l wishlist, to allow any logged-in user to assign a rating 1-5 to any image. This would not include a big red "evil" button, though one could tick an image as "1" to express dismay...
I *did* develop a "tasks" extension a long time ago. It would allow for a "bad content" flagging system, with sidebar/page top message. However: * after all the time it lay and rusted in the extensions directory, I'm not sure if/how well it would work on the current MediaWiki * it would be overkill to employ it as a simple flagging system. It can do so much more.
Cheers, Magnus
