MediaWiki talk:Pendingchanges

Question

{{editprotected}} Shouldn't it be "Pages with unreviewed pending changes" instead of "Pages wih pending changes" as that encompass every page with PC enabled? —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 11:50am • 00:50, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

I don't know. Where does this message appear? The page Special:Oldreviewedpages contains MediaWiki:Pendingchanges-list which says "This page lists reviewed pages having one or more edits awaiting review." which seems to be correct? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:33, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

It still says Pages with Pending Changes on Special:PendingChanges. —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 10:09am • 23:09, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Ah I see you are talking about the title of that page not the text in it. Well, Pages with pending changes could mean pages with changes which are pending, i.e. changes which are waiting to be made. But we could change it if you think it is unclear. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:49, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

"Pending changes" could refer to the whole system or literally "pending" edits. To avoid confusion, the title should be "Pages with edits awaiting review". — Train2104 (talk • contribs • count) 02:47, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Okay. As this only applies to articles, I've used "articles" rather than "pages". — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:00, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Martin! Regards, —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 4:39pm • 05:39, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

Please change "Articles" to "Pages" because pending changes can also be applied (and are applied) to the wikipedia namespace. Pinging MSGJ given the discussion above. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 21:43, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

This is really only used for articles, with rare exceptions - but just to be consistent I think "pages" is better (e.g. look at Special:PendingChanges - it says pages everywhere else). — xaosflux ^Talk 17:53, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

Indeed. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 18:05, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
