Hi James,
I think it'd be good to have a conversation on this talk page about the
subject of where to roll this out to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Flagged_protection_and_patrolle…
There's already been a little bit of discussion there, and should probably
be more.
Note that this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Flagged_protection_and_patrolled_rev…
...has a section titled "Initial article count limits". We're planning on
putting an upper bound of 2000 articles, so putting all semi-protected
articles under the new regime is probably off the table. Just speaking for
myself as a community member, it seems smart to limit this to pages that
would qualify for semi-protection. It would be very appropriate to add a
policy sec
Speaking as a member of WMF, we think it's really important that the
community has policies ready when this rolls out, so thank you for
(re)starting the conversation.
