Perhaps this is a misunderstanding by the OP.
There would be additional overhead, if the edits by the named
"article-communities" have to be flagged - but this wouldn't be the case
in 99,9% of the time, because it's highly likely that these persons
accomplish the requirements of flag articles as sighted by themselves.
But the edits by authors who are allowed to flag articles as sighted are
flagged as sighted automatically. So there would be no additional work
and no delay.
Bye, Tim.
