Hi folks around the world,
there was a debate in Huwiki about cosmetic changes which have a very limited popularity. One of the problems is that we have Flagged Revs, and when a bot edits an unpatrolled page, it will be hard to overview changes and difficult to patrol it after cosmetic changes. Patrollers complain about this a lot. Here is an example: *difflink before cchttp://hu.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Az_Amerikai_Egyes%C3%BClt_%C3%81llamok_L%C3%A9giereje&action=historysubmit&diff=8487748&oldid=8020171 *difflink after cchttp://hu.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Az_Amerikai_Egyes%C3%BClt_%C3%81llamok_L%C3%A9giereje&action=historysubmit&diff=8601149&oldid=8020171
Is it possible to distuinguish patrolled and unpatrolled versions? I think the ideal solution this way: *If the wiki has Flagged Revs, cosmetic changes won't work on unpatrolled pages as default behaviour *A new parameter could be introduced to force cc on these pages *For patrolled pages and for wikis without Flagged Revs the process won't change Could somebody please implement this solution? Otherwise cc may easily be prohibited in Huwiki.
Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!
Hi,
I don't know much about the extension, but AFAIK, Flagged Revs works on diffs. Wouldn't it be enough if you marked the particular change you make as patrolled? The Site class has a function patrol which receives a revision ID as parameter. Obviously, the downside is you have to have patrol rights on the bot account.

You can't mark a change without marking the preceding changes. You may mark versions, not changes.

I found these edits depends on sighted versions. Any (bot) edit on unsighted versions keeps unsighted until it is explicit marked as sighted.

Yes, and this is the problem, because the patrollers complain on being the
sighting more complicated because of cosmetic changes (see the two difflinks in my first mail). So we would like bots to make cosmetic changes only on sighted pages even if cc is on. Otherwise cc may easily be prohibited in huwiki soon.
