- I think this ML top-posts. Not sure. - Suspect that the Flow extension would allow for more flexibility, including attaching multiple discussion threads to a specific edit or paragraph.

On Wed Nov 12 01:05:26 UTC 2014 I asked this list if the technical team could help the patrollers of recent changes to Wikipedia's medical articles “...tag the log entry of revisions ... as having been reviewed for policy/guideline compliance by a trusted editor.” [1]

I am quite technically illiterate and may have misunderstood, but judging by Yusuke Matsubara's description, the extension he mentions above seems like it might fit our needs. Will it enable patrollers to add a comment to the edit summary? Does anyone know if it works on en.Wikipedia?
