Brion is continuing to review the FlaggedRevs extension for security and scalabilty. (He's already made several fixes.) Meanwhile, I've set up a small demo of the extension in the configuration which I propose we should use for the English Wikipedia. Please don't hit the server too hard or I'll have to take it down. :-)
(This is courteously hosted by the University of Bamberg in collaboration with Open Progress.)
The page should pretty much be self-explanatory.
Thanks once again to the two main developers of the extension, Aaron Schulz and Jörg Baach.
Hello Erik and everyone reading this,
I might be speaking ahead of the flock here. But I am pretty sure the Dutch wikipedia would be interested in this as well as we have had a lot of discussions about this for a long time already.

No worries, the plan is that any wiki that wants to can get it. See: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikiquality#Revision_tagging
From what I can tell, it should tie nicely into nl.wikipedia
workflows, since it also hooks into the recent changes patrolling mechanism (which can be made more efficient by exempting trusted users from the review process).
Sorry for my ignorance, but will this extension affect every page? or just pages that have been previously rubber stamped as 'good'?
I can't find any very general discussion of this idea, and the more technical discussion is a bit confusing.
One further question, will 'reviewers' contributions be automatically rubber stamped, or will another reviewer need to review the contribution?
Sorry for my ignorance!
Dan.

Before a revision has been sighted, nothing happens.
Once a revision has been sighted, the default view for unregistered users can be set on a per-page level. Registered users always see the latest version.
One further question, will 'reviewers' contributions be automatically rubber stamped, or will another reviewer need to review the contribution?
The former.

I understand this previously couldn't be undone. I hope it can now - people are imperfect, and everything on the wiki needs to be reversible.
- d.
Every wiki in the foundation will have to set their own rules on how to apply it. So start thinking :)

Just a brief wording change on the 'qa' special page, for clarity's sake (I had to re-read the current wording several times in order to figure out exactly what it meant).
WAS: The latest quality revision; if not present, then the latest sighted one The stable revision; if not present, then the current one
BETTER: The latest quality revision if present, otherwise the latest sighted one The stable revision if present, otherwise the current one
Other than that, it's looking pretty cool!
