[WikiEN-l] flagged revisions - autoreviewer even of minor edits

[Emily Monroe]

Are you guys talking about the right to not have your page patrolled  
by New Page Patrol? Because, even though I probably have it all wrong,  
I don't think I've seen the word "autoreviewer" tossed about in any  
other context. I was under the impression that autoreviewer status was  
something where you can either nominate yourself or another person,  
after said nominee has written an unusual high amount of policy- 
complying articles in a row, therefore clogging up New Page Patrol--it  
doesn't come to you automatically.
