Test Wiki:Borrado de Revisiones

Esta es una página informativa que documenta alguna práctica, plataforma u otro aspecto de Test Wiki. No constituye una política, ya que no ha sido aprobada formalmente por la comunidad y su cumplimiento no es obligatorio.

Revision deletion is a feature of the MediaWiki software allowing administrators to hide a revision from non-administrators, and place it behind an interstitial for any administrators who wish to check the revision. Bureaucrats can also do the same for entries in the log.

Revision deletion can hide content, summaries, and usernames of edits and log entries. On Test Wiki, it is used for tests or non-test reasons.

In addition, suppressors can use revision deletion in suppression mode to hide certain types of material from even administrators.

Use

Revision deletion is used for many purposes, including, but not limited to:

• For testing
• To hide copyright infringements, where there is a clean revision to restore to
• To hide grossly insulting, degrading, or offensive material
• To hide purely disruptive material, with little or no testing or project value (such as phishing, scams, spam, etc.)
• To hide suppressible material prior to suppression (use a discreet edit summary for this. If there is another reason you can use, like purely disruptive material, use that.)
• To make uncontroversial redactions that don't fit in the other categories
• In some logs, like the chat log, to hide the content or edit summary where they take up too much screen space (for instance, text with diacritical marks that stretch off the log entry)

In general, please only redact the part(s) of material that fit a non-test reason. If you are testing, redact as much as you want, and then revert. This page is CC-BY-SA licensed.
