http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Pen...or_Comment_2012:
QUOTE [...] Pending Changes will become live on 1 December, 2012. To allow developers enough preparation time, we recommend that community discussion about changes to the draft Pending Changes policy be concluded no later than 1 November, 2012. If the community has not, at that time, reached a consensus about how to change the draft policy, Pending Changes will be implemented according to the terms of the Draft Policy until the community can find a consensus. Wikipedia will be using Pending Changes by December 2012. Below is a hyperlink to the "default" Pending Changes policy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Pen...visional_policy What's surprising here is that the Provisional policy (Position #2) only had 61% of the !voters supporting it. That percentage is lower than the usual threshold for consensus. |

One thing I have never understood, maybe others do. How is English Wikipedia so different from other WMF sites that have implemented pending changes with apparently few problems? OK, no doubt English Wikipedia is the busiest site with the most changes. But by the other side of the same coin, it has far more recent change patrollers than other WMF sites.
