Extension:FlaggedRevs

Article validation allows for a reviewer class of users to rate article's accuracy/depth/style and set those revisions as the default revision to show upon normal page view (".../wiki/pagename").

These revisions will remain the same even if included templates are changed or images are overwritten. Images that were deleted will not however.

Status
The extension is still in heavy early development, but enough code is there to play arround with it. Everything can and will change though ;-)

There is an instance running on, and notes about your finding can be left on the FlaggedRevsNotes page.

Setup
Add the include_once line of FlaggedRevs.php into localsettings.php.

Run the FlaggedRevs.sql query, substituting in your wiki's table prefix.

Use
First, make sure there is a bureaucrat or steward account (Stewards can set any arbitrary rights). Bureaucrat accounts, by default, can promote users to reviewer status or remove it.

Users with reviewer status will have a small rating form on page view and diffs that lets them review revisions (actually they lead to the comfirmation interface).

Logging
A log of promotion/demotion of reviewers and why is kept at Special:Log.

A log of the approval/unapproval of revisions is kept at Special:Log.
