Forum:Flagged revisions?

Are there any plans to implement the flagged revisions extension? (which is currently on trial at http://en.wikipedia.org/) - this seems to be a more open, and encouraging way to protect pages. I understand that it'd serve little to no benifit to smaller wikis, but I'd like to know if wikia are considering it. Random Time  00:47, June 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * If integrating the extension is not too much work, you could request it be enabled on a particular wiki via Special:Contact. If you decide to ask for it to be enabled, I'd be curious to get Wikia's reply.
 * On the idea that this extension would be of no benefit to smaller wikis, I completely disagree. A smaller wiki is more likely to have the proper ratio of patrollers to keep track of page changes. A larger wiki might get overwhelmed and feel "frozen," if not enough patrollers were available. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 6:39 PM PST 17 Jun 2010
 * Perhaps you're thinking about a different use for flagged revisions, I was more thinking about it being a replacement for the protected pages feature, and not to have the entire wiki locked down and be "frozen". Random Time  12:35, June 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * I didn't mean locked down, but if a wiki requires all revisions to be patrolled or the last patrolled revision will be shown (if I understand how this extension works), a large wiki may not have enough patrollers to make sure new good revisions are accepted and thus fresh. What I meant when I said "frozen" was that if you have lets say less than half of all good new revisions accepted, then there is a better than 50% chance a person may see an old revision for no good reason.
 * On a side note, I wonder how this feature operates. Does an editor only see their changes in preview? Do new changes get piled on top of each other until patrolled? -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 11:22 AM PST 18 Jun 2010
 * Wikia told me it is not ready for them to implement yet, though it is high on their list of "would-be-cool" extensions to implement. -- 18:35, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
