UDWiki:Administration/Discussion
This page is used for sysop-to-sysop communication. For example, if System Operator A wanted to get the attention of all other system operators, discuss a policy issue, request assistance from a number of other system operators, etc., he or she could do so by posting under the appropriate section on this page instead of having to write on several different talk pages. Additionally, since this page is intended for system operators use only, it is locked so that non-sysops cannot edit it. The talk page, however, is to be kept unlocked so that other users of the wiki can comment as well if necessary.

Patrolled Edits
How strictly to the team currently use Patrolled Edits to vet suspicious edits, or even those that might seem worthy of looking at via Recent Changes? THE CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER 16:48, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
- I don't use Patrolled Edits. I manually look through nearly every edit (other than my own) in Recent Changes. (I don't want to list the exceptions publicly in case somebody then uses that to sneak stuff by, but am happy to PM you about it.) Bob Moncrief EBD•W! 23:33, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
- I basically ignore the patrolled status of edits (and I more or less don’t use Recent Changes, since I have around 1000 pages on my watchlist), though I will sometimes mark edits as patrolled if we’re in the middle of drama, that way it’s easier to focus on potentially problematic ones for any sysops that actually do use the patrolled status. —Aichon— 07:26, 19 August 2018 (UTC)

Example (User)
I didn't realize nobody had ever registered the user account at User:Example. Someone now has, so I pointed all the links there over to User:Example User instead, and copied the contents onto User talk:Example User. Just wanted to post here for our records and in case anyone wants to double-check me/has comments. Bob Moncrief EBD•W! 12:29, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
