Help:Patrolling

{{img)) Zelda Wiki.org prides itself in having every single edit marked and patrolled. The Patrollers, Admins, and Bureaucrats, all share the task of reviewing new changes at Zelda Wiki.org.

How-To
In the Recent Changes, you'll notice a red exclamation point beside Pagenames in the list. This indicates unpatrolled edits.

Clicking on "(diff)" opens a view highlighting exactly what has been changed between the newest edit the preceding one. Simply review the changes. From this point two options are available: Mark as Patrolled- more or less approves the article changes. Before opening an edit view to make any corrections or additions that come to mind, scan to see if later changes have been made to the article. Rollback- This is actually a risky function, though it can be undone. The Rollback function reverts all edits made by a single editor to a version made by another editor.

Tips
Choosing the option "Hide patrolled edits" repopulates the Recent Changes to only show unmarked edits. Working from the bottom of the list may be easier to keep track of multiple changes to certain pages. This feature can also be set as a semipermanent function in the my preferences tab; useful for patrolling sessions.
