Hi
At the moment if an admin (also reviewer) edits a page, it is automatic marked as sighted. In the case of a small edit, like a spelling error or a missing image etc, it might occur we don't check all the links in an article. It would be a whole bunch more work if we have to do this every edit, especially when fixing links of transferred articles. (Which more or less consists of search Special:WhatLinksHere, open, edit, use find option in browser, fix internal links found, save and open next in list.)
I would like to disable the automatic sighting for myself, but I can not find the settings. Maybe it is wise to disable this. (maybe for all admins) and make sighting/reviewing a different part of the job. So when we go out reviewing, we actually really are reviewing and checking the external links etc.
My request is to disable this function at least for me, because I don't like to have an article marked for something I did not do. Maybe the automatic function is nice when all creazyness from transferring and recovery from the move is over. For now it's just plain inconvenient.
[...] I think a bureaucrat might create a new user-group (like: "administrators without automatic") without the automatic sight in the definitions of the group (and of the groups members rights/previleges). Then you could put Tim in that new group and out of the others to fulfill his wishes. mediawiki: Manual:User rights http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_rights http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilfe:Gruppenrechte Greetings pistazienfresser -- - openSUSE profile: https://users.opensuse.org/show/pistazienfresser -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org
