Meta:Oversvømmelsesflag
 | The following page is a translation of Meta-Wiki guideline into Danish language. It is a generally accepted standard that users should follow, though it should be treated with common sense and the occasional exception. Please note that in the event of any differences in meaning or interpretation between the original English version of this guideline and a translation, the original English version takes precedence. |
Hvornår oversvømmelsesflaget skal anvendes
Administrators should use the flood flag to avoid flushing other edits and actions from the RecentChanges (RC) feed when making repetitive changes. Such actions must never be controversial, as using the flood flag decreases the amount of oversight they may receive. Abuse of the flood flag is treated as abuse of any other administrator tool would be. Examples of acceptable use would be deleting many spambot pages, deleting a large number of pages after consensus has been achieved at Meta:Requests for deletion, or blocking many open proxies. Unacceptable uses include attempting to circumvent legitimate oversight of any controversial action, whether or not it is an administrator task.
Users may also wish to raise the flood flag when performing log actions on large numbers of usernames that are offensive or libellous (i.e. stewards locking/hiding global accounts, administrators performing local blocks and so on).
In some cases, a bureaucrat may remove the flood flag to force an administrator's edits to appear in RC. This should be done in cases where the administrator has forgotten to remove it, or when the changes should be seen by default in RC.
Oversvømmelsesflaget gives og fjernes ved at bruge Special:UserRights.
Granting the flood flag is logged, and shown in recent changes. Administrators who abuse their admin rights (now including the flood flag) should be sanctioned.
Oversvømmelsesflag eller botflag?
This is intended to replace requesting temporary bot flags from bureaucrats. Administrators who would otherwise request a temp bot flag may simply flag themselves using the flood right.
Cases where a permanent bot flag should be given remain the same—the administrator should create a secondary account and request a bot flag as normal. Only temporary bot flags are replaced with this flood flag.
