[WikiEN-l] Community ready for Pending Changes (nee Flagged Protection)?

[Cenarium sysop]

We could also implement as scheduled, but refrain from using pending changes
in mainspace until we're ready. This way, reviewers could start testing in
Wikipedia namespace before it's rolled out on articles. The issue of using
level 2 PC-protection is not resolved yet, so we may request a configuration
change if there's consensus for not using it.
