Thread:Project:Support desk/Get undone edits automatically marked as patrolled/reply (2)

There are two things to distinguish: flagged revision (Help:FlaggedRevs) and patrolled revision (Help:Patrolling). None of these work as yet in en.wikipedia. In pt.wikipedia patrolling works for every autoconfirmed user, but in other wikis works only for administrators. Flagging is working in pl.wikipedia and ru.wikipedia, but not in pt.wikipedia. What I mean is patrolling, not flagging. In patrolling each revision has a mark "patrolled" or "not patrolled". By default, whenever an edit is made, that revision is marked "not patrolled" (unless the user is autopatrol, or a bot). That's independent of which revision is the newest or which revision is shown when you load the page. You can have a revision 2 years old marked as "not patrolled". So, I mean patrolling. Patrolling is about taking the list of revisions marked as "not patrolled", checking one, if it's non-problematic, you change its mark to "patrolled", if it's problematic (vandalism, for instance), you solve the problem, and then change its mark to "patrolled". Then you go back to the list and that revision is not there anymore, so you take another one, and so on. Every revision should end as "patrolled", once it has been dealt with. See commons:COM:ANON, for a good example. Often, though not always, the solving of the problem is simple: you undo the problematic edit with the undo button. In some cases you have to make manual undoing of a bad part in order to keep some good part - in theses cases you don't use the undo button. What I say is, if you use the undo button, then the revision you're undoing should be marked automatically as "patrolled". As it is now, after undoing, one has to go back to that revision and change the mark manually. And bots, when undoing some revision, should also mark it as "patrolled". I don't know whether bots really click the undo button, but the idea is the same.
