Wikinews:Reviewing

From Wikinews, the free news source you can write!
(Redirected from Wikinews:EDITOR)

Users who are members of the group Reviewer have the ability to:

  • Delete single revision redirects (delete-redirect)
  • Edit protected pages (semi protected) (editsemiprotected)
  • Mark revisions as being "checked" (review)
  • Not be affected by IP-based rate limits (autoconfirmed)
  • Not create redirects from source pages when moving pages (suppressredirect)
  • Quickly rollback the edits of the last user who edited a particular page (rollback)
  • View the list of unreviewed pages (unreviewedpages)

Bots

[edit]

Some bots have been given reviewer status. This is solely for their edits to be auto-sighted. No bot should perform the initial sighting of an article.

Requests for review status

[edit]

All requests to be given reviewer status should be made at WN:FR/RFP.

All editors reviewing an article are strongly encouraged to use one of the two review assistance gadgets: the legacy Easy Peer Review or the newer EzPR 2025. Both perform various technical tasks that would otherwise be time-consuming.

Historical note

[edit]

Previously, a different right was referred to as reviewer. This right (which is not used) is now called Super-reviewer. Most external documentation will call what we call the Reviewer group 'editors'.
