User:Mediator/user interface requirements
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
What changes to the mediawiki user interface would make it easier to mediate edit disputes?
This is wide open to anyone's input. Add yours here:
If you don't want these to be lost amongst all the other wikipedia:ignored feature requests, then list them at SourceForge. You can find the relevant link at wikipedia:bug reports. Thank you. Martin 23:27, 10 Oct 2003 (UTC)
My first impression is that this would require very little software change. I would suggest a "mediator" namespace to keep these personnae separate from user names. I'll elaborate my ideas on this elsewhere, but this is the only technical aspect that comes immediately to mind. User:Eclecticology
- Thanks.
To answer User:Wik's concern about User:Mediator/spam, answered in User_talk:Mediator/mediator, a very useful feature would be one-click deletion of personal subpages. That makes it easy for anyone to send a transitory message to several other users, for which there is no support right now. It's hard to draw a number of people's attention to something at the same time without doing a lot of complex edits. Of course any use of spam must be minimal.
