Radio 5 Live just called, they want to do a piece on the "flagged revisions" media buzz on today's drivetime show. I'll be on by phone around 6:50pm BST (17:50 UTC).
Anita whatsit's intro was "Wikipedia is locking down o noez, editors up in arms" - I hopefully corrected it, said we were doing it with great caution after occasional long waits for approval on de:wp, that it was only for BLPs, and that editors were concerned about taking away the instant editing thing and long bottlenecks. And that it was in testing at the moment, probably live within the next coupla months.
Were you on earlier than expected? I tuned it at around 6:45pm and apparently missed you.
