Hi Andrew
I'm sorry for replying so late, thank you very much for your offer, I'm sure that I (we) will contact you, when we convert the next old projects. But at the moment were are pushing hard to reduce the unvalidated pages especially on projects which stay here for a long time without any progress - we call them Altlasten (inherited burdens).
ThomasV,
I'm quite happy, that we found an agreement for the IP's and proofread.
greetings joergens.mi

ok, I just commited a configuration option that will allow anons to modify pagequality levels.
In the future, I plan to automate semi-protection of pages when they reach q4 ; this task is currently being done by robots at de.ws. Note that this option might cause problems when semi-protection is enabled, because an anonymous user who sets a page to q4 will be locked out from editing again. We can restrict IPs to q3 in users in order to avoid that.

ThomasV a écrit :
I recently had an interesting IRC discussion with two users of the German Wikisource (PDD and Paulis). It turned out that what they request is not a complete disabling of the extension's identity check, as I thought previously. They want IPs to be allowed to modify quality levels, but they also agree with the extension forbidding to the same user to set both q3 and q4, or to set q4 directly.
I think that I can accept such a solution, because it would not strongly damage the semantics of q3 and q4. It remains to be seen if this solution can be accepted by the rest of the de.ws community. They both seemed confident about that.
