Deferred changes is a way to defer for review edits by users that aren't autoconfirmed when they match certain edit filters, are picked up by a bot (e.g. User:ClueBot NG) as warranting attention, or are considered damaging by ORES. The revision displayed to readers can be chosen to be either the latest revision as usual ('passive' defer) or the revision prior to the user edits ('active' defer). Deferred edits appear at Special:PendingChanges. Should we request implementation of deferred changes ? Specifically, should we allow it for the edit filter, bots and ORES, both passively and actively ? Cenarium (talk) 17:54, 12 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Edit filter

Should we allow bots to defer edits for review, passively, actively, or both ? Use would be governed by the edit filter guideline.

ORES

Should we allow bots to defer edits for review, passively, actively, or both ? Thresholds would be determined by consensus initially, and administrators may set higher thresholds in case of excessive backlogs.
