I think this doesn't really address the core issues that surround this hotly debated topic of paid editing. No further comment.

I do mind 5 and 6, since their submissions would be deleted aggressively. I feel that you may introduce a marker if you want, but not a separate queue.

hi,
could wmf please extend the mediawiki software in the following way:
- it should knows "groups"
- allow users to store an arbitrary number of groups with their
profile
- allow to select one of the "group"s joined to an edit when saving
- add a checkbox "COI" to an edit, meaning "potential conflict of
interest"
- display and filter edits marked with COI in a different color in
history
views 6. display and filter edits done for a group in a different color in history views 7. allow members of a group to receive notifications done on the group
page,
or when a group is mentioned in an edit/comment/talk page.
reason: currently it is quite cumbersome to participate as an organisation. it
is
quite cumbersome for people as well to detect COI edits. the most
prominent
examples are employees of the wikimedia foundation, and GLAMs. users
tend
to create multiple accounts, and try to create "company accounts". the
main
reason for this behaviour are (examples, but of course valid general):
- have a feedback page / notification page for the swiss federal
archive
for other users
- make clear that an edit is done private or as wmf employee
this then would allow the community to create new policies, e.g. the
german
community might cease using company accounts, and switch over to this system. this proposal is purely technical. current policies can still
be
applied if people do not need something else, e.g. wmf employees may continue to use "sue gardner (wmf)" accounts.
what you think?
best regards, rupert
