Hoi,
With 93.68% of the messages for FlaggedRevs localised, I do argue that the implementation of FlaggedRevs should be done when feasible for the Hebrew Wikisource. The Hebrew community at Betawiki deserve to see the fruits of their labout reflected in an implementation.

Thanks,
       GerardM

Hi, we've entered December. Has my worry has come true, namely that interim discussion of localization would send the request to never-never land? It would be great if he.wikisource could be implemented :-)



In general, for those who are interested in the topic, information on the implementation of Flagged Reviews may be found at this page:



http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/FlaggedRevs



In my opinion, priority should be given to custom implementation at as many wikis as possible. Only in this way can its long-term effectiveness be tested. Great resources were rightfully invested in creating this extension, which is (in my opinion) an essential part of the functionality of a wiki environment. It is also, on a cultural level, a necessary tool for improving public attitudes about the reliability of wiki projects.




(The latter reason is, especially, the reason we want it on he.wikisource. Only with a function like this can we convince certain organizations to make their texts open-content, by guaranteeing that an authoritative version will appear on the wiki website, not subject at all to vandalism or to well-meaning deprecation.)




So let's get it implemented as widely as possible and track its effectiveness!
