Strangely enough, the flaggedrevisions feature seems to provide a lot of what we need:
- People don't have to watch changes as they happen, they can stumble on
them when they go to save a new change 2) Changes are marked as patrolled, so far more efficient than 10 people all noticing the same change on their watchlist and deciding no action needs to be taken.
I do not think we are planning to implement that sort of flagged revisions on enwiki any time soon. The plan is just to enable flagged revisions on problematic articles, as a sort of "semiprotection-light".
I agree that it would be helpful to know which edits have already been reviewed, to save myself the effort of reviewing them again. But this leads to all sorts of problems, such as whether I really trust the other reviewers enough not to look at the diffs myself.
