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 am sure that I can disable it in the de.wikipedia - at least afterwards as I did now for an example on: http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=OpenSUSE&action=historysubmit&diff=76875589&oldid=76825754 http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=OpenSUSE&action=history And if I remember right if I edit an article that has already hanging a not 'gesichtet' edit - the resulting version is not maked as 'gesichtet' (sighted?) after that automatically - I have to do it for myself. But an workaround could be a second account without any special privileges - like I do not surf in the web as root ;-) And maybe you can also modify something with sighted/patrolled/quality - de.wikipedia has to my knowledge only the lowest level - officially only against (obvious?) vandalism.
