https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20337 --- Comment #19 from Church of emacs 2009-09-08 21:36:56 UTC --- @Cary: Oversights can't only hide edits, but also edit summaries, log entries and users. I agree that "Oversight" is not a perfectly intuitive name, but imho another name should be discussed on a broader basis, therefor I created a page on the Strategy wiki: http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Change_usergroup_name_%22Oversight%22 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20337 --- Comment #17 from Cary Bass 2009-09-08 20:21:18 UTC --- Frankly, I'm not sure why the user group is even called "oversight" on simple wiki when "edit-hiders" would probably make more sense. I'm still working out what the best course is but I should have this list created under whatever name by end of day. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20337 Church of emacs changed: What|Removed |Added CC||church.of.emacs...@gmail.com --- Comment #16 from Church of emacs 2009-09-06 11:59:06 UTC --- Cary, the new software feature is called "RevisionDelete". Imho it makes no sense to change the name of mailing lists and keep the old name for the user group. If "oversight" must be renamed, it should be renamed globally, not just on the mailing list name. I don't really understand why it is so difficult to get a mailing list in this case. There are six oversights (dewiki has a mailing list with only five oversights) and they don't have an OTRS queue (if they don't want one, it should be fine. It's their choice). How are users supposed to request OS? Not everyone has IRC and private mails to individual oversights suck, because they spam the inbox of oversights (if all OS are contacted) or they have a potentially long response time (if only one of six OS is contacted). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20337 --- Comment #15 from EVula 2009-09-05 05:23:56 UTC --- Total agreement; I'm less concerned with what the mailing list name exactly is (especially if this is coming just as you're considering a new naming scheme), versus just having in at all.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20337 --- Comment #13 from Cary Bass 2009-09-04 20:37:17 UTC --- Actually, oversight is the old tool. Revision suppression is the new one and the one used. There is no 'manual of style' regarding mailing list names, and in all likelihood, some of these old names will be changed to new ones (for instance, oversight-l only covers the English Wikipedia, anyway). I'm initiating discussion because I'm trying to come up with consensus on a new name rather than just making it that way. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

There are others, they're just hiding. ;-) We have: oversight-l (should be specified to enwp, but it's old), oversight-wp-de, and oversight-es. There may be more, but google translate is blocked on the computer I'm on... apparently it's a "Domain with Translation/Redirect Contents!" He's right that it's really best to have mailing lists for oversight... that way requests are archived and others can comment on them, also speeds up the oversight process. > simple.wikipedia is a relatively small wiki; > none of the big wikis have their own oversight-l list Depends what you qualify as "the big wikis". enwiki (oversight-l), dewiki (oversight-wp-de), and eswiki (oversight-es) all have them. ja/pl/it/pt/nl don't have oversights, but frwp has select stewards as their oversights -- this is why these ones don't have lists.
