Position #1: my !vote
Line 156:
#'''Endorse''' position 1. It would overly bureaucratizes the system - it would protect from outright vandalism, but would alienate editors because editors ´would have to review all pending edits before their own edit becomes visible. Worse, it would likely alienate careful editors more than others: sometimes it can be tricky to perform a correct and thorough review (for example if the last edit has an inline reference which is not available online), therefore editors who really want to push a further edit into the article may tend review and accept overly generously, whereas more conscientious editors would be discouraged from editing if they feel unable to appropriately review the previous edit. So it could deter especially the careful editors from improving an unreviewed article. And it would not protect at all from purposely introduced bias or other abuse of Wikipedia. --[[User:Chris Howard|Chris Howard]] ([[User talk:Chris Howard|talk]]) 18:49, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
#'''Endorse''' pos. 1 - This will add unnecessary complexity and discourage new editors. [[User:MadGeographer|<font style="color:darkgreen">mge</font><font style="color:blue">'''o'''</font>]] <small>[[User talk:MadGeographer|talk]]</small> 21:00, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
