What exactly is RC Patrolling?
It is a mechanism to check for vandalism. See RC patrolling
In MediaWiki 1.4 and above, a feature exists allowing specific users to mark items in recent changes as having been "patrolled" or "approved". This is useful when reviewing recent changes for undesirable edits, link spam and vandalism.

[edit] Default ?
Is it correct, that the default-value is true? --Nyks 12:11, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately yes. I personally find RC patrolling to be very annoying, but it's set to true by default in DefaultSettings.php. --Sayuri 12:18, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
