New feature: Recent Changes Patrol. All edits and new pages are now highlighted on Special:Recentchanges and Special:Newpages until someone "marks" them as "patrolled" using a special link. For new pages, this link appears at the bottom of the article if the link in Recent Changes or New Pages is followed. For all other edits, this link appears only in the diff and only if the diff link is followed from Recent Changes. (Might need to add this functionality to Watchlist too; haven't done that yet.)
Neat! But who gets to mark an edit as "patrolled"? Letting an anon or new user do that would tend to defeat the purpose. Also, depending on a single person's judgment may be problematic as well. Ideally an article would need to be viewed by 3 non-newbies/anons to get the "patrolled" tag.
But this at least is a good start. I thank you for coding this feature. :)
