Dirk Frederickx commented on JSPWIKI-435:
-----------------------------------------
Indeed, the term 'minor edit' might be confusing. This term is sometimes
referred to as a 'qualification' of a version indicating that is was only a
minor edit. A minor-edit flag will be shown in the version-history of the page.
However, the suggestion here is to overwrite the last version of the page, when
'minor-editing' is turned on. (nothing will be visible in the version-history
of the page.
JSPWIki should only allow to turn on (of by default turn on) 'minor-editin'g'
when a number of conditions are true, in order to avoid abuse. (i.e.
overwriting stuff without a trail in the version history of the wiki)
Additional remark:
The change-note of that page-version should be preserved during minor-edit, but
the user should be allowed to make an update to it.

>
> Minor editing allows to save a page without creating a new version. This
> avoids excessive creating of many page versions with no added value.
> Minor-editing will be allowed (defaulted) when :
> 1) the same authenticated users is editing the page multiple times
> 2) the editing occurs within 30min (settable through jspwiki.properties)
> A user should be allowed to 'un-check' the minor-editing flag and save the
> changes as a new version.
