Allow me to quote the whole policy: "If a rule
prevents you from
improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it." That implies, in my view
correctly, that the person editing is presumed to set out with the
intention of making the encyclopedia better.
I think that fits in nicely with James Alexander's view: we can and
should assume that most editors have already checked their work. Not
against the minutiae of our rules, but against their own intent, and
their understanding of what constitutes an improvement to Wikipedia.
But we aren't checking to ensure that the edits were performed in good
faith (as even a gross BLP violation can be). We're checking to
ensure that they're appropriate.
And again, the main problem is ambiguity. "Double Check" can easily
be interpreted to mean that two separate post-submission checks are
occurring. It also is a chess term (and could be mistaken for a a
reference to that concept).
What is your opinion of the proposed name "Revision Review"?
