Patrolled Edits is a feature on mediawiki that allows marking edits as
"known good" (i.e. ham, as opposed to spam). This can be used to
list edits that have not been assessed, which makes spam easier to
identify and deal with.
Automatic patrolling is where this happens without human intervention.
In our version of mediawiki, there is the ability to have defined users
whose edits are automatically marked as 'patrolled'.
This patch makes a new group, so that bureaucrats of the wiki can
assign "known good" users to this group. The group is given the permission
of 'autopatrol', which means users added to this group will have their
edits automatically marked as 'patrolled'.
Further information about this feature and how to verify the syntax for
this patch is available at:
