Hello everyone,
I am happy to announce the (hopefully) final release candidate for MediaWiki 1.24.0. Download links are given at the end of this email.
== Changes since 1.24.0-rc.1 == * Setting $wgAllowSiteCSSOnRestrictedPages to true is necessary if you want to use on-wiki CSS modifications (e.g MediaWiki:Common.css) on Special:UserLogin or Special:Preferences.

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?

Ignore my last post - I appended it to the wrong thread.
