yes! well. on further reflection I realized it might have just been easier to push to the wiki so the edits would appear on recent view if not the most ideal destination.
Yes, exactly. The main reason for the choice of using the wiki for this was "ease of implemenation."
edits & deletions do factor in more than a few over long forum posts!
not to mention, being on the wiki they might also be edited and further confused by edits within a few minutes being condensed.
Well, this is also by design. If someone (the same user) is doing a lot of edits to a forum post in a short period, it's probably better to condense the edits in the rss/recent changes. If a person really wants to see the entire history, it's as easy as visiting the lastest saved edit on the wiki and then visiting the history link.
but, it could be confusing for someone working on the wiki,
they should probably be removed from the wiki's recent changes page if they are duplicated there.
This is a good idea. I'll work on getting this to happen.
eventually 3 and 4d monitors will make such things orders of magnitude easier to view and understand.
I've love to have a 4d monitor. As an aside, will it be able to do time-travel too?
