Purely as a point of fact it is simply inaccurate that the 20 implementations of flagged revs and patrolled edits across the other wikies than English Wikipedia are monolithically identical. I know this firsthand.
Sorry if I gave that impression. Indeed, I have direct evidence otherwise. When I run low on things to worry about, I pull up the spreadsheet I built showing the wide config variations in uses of FlaggedRevs. Not that it's worrying on its own; it's nice to see people using it and adapting it locally. It just means that potential bugs are harder to spot.
All I was trying to say is that the requested approach for the English Wikipedia, called Flagged Protection, differs from the existing uses.
For those unfamiliar, Flagged Protection is described here:
