Hi,
Is there something like an oversight function for log entrees?
The automatic summary after you delete a article can give away personal information if this was in the first line of the deleted article. If you forget to rewrite the summary these personal data is accesable through te logs.
Is there a way to delete a log entree?
(me hopes this is the right list to ask).
Kind regards Peter van Londen/Londenp

At present, not without annoying someone with database access.
User:VoiceOfAll has rewritten this stuff extensively, and I think his rewritten version addresses this - no idea when this is scheduled to land in the code, however.

Note that behind the need for the time for brion/tim to review it (they are oft busy), the log deletion aspects also depend on a tricky schema change that may be very hard to do for the sysadmins...-Aaron Schulz> Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2007 10:56:31 +0000> From: dgerard@gmail.com> To: wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org> Subject: Re: [Wikitech-l] Oversight for logs> > On 20/11/2007, Peter van Londen londenp@gmail.com wrote:> > > Is there something like an oversight function for log entrees?> > The automatic summary after you delete a article can give away personal> > information if this was in the first line of the deleted article.
