Bot Notification: Changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 22:52, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

Comment 56 on Bugzilla 24313
Hiya,

For the record, I am one of the people on en-Wiki who had minordefault enabled.

Thank you very much for just putting this in $wgHiddenPrefs for en-Wiki, It is not a "useless preferences" in MediaWiki.

Yep.

I do not consider that I was invited to the battle. Perhaps if there had been a Bot notification to the set of 33,625 users that had minordefault enabled, advertising an open discussion on Help talk:Minor Edit about  removing the feature they were using, the debate would have been larger and less one sided.

The Village Pump Proposals one line ad did not attract many of that set, while Village Pump Technical discussion seems to be still trying figure out how to replace the now hidden simple check box with script that works.

Since I had no intent of ever changing my minordefault,  it is the change from Bugzilla Comment 55 that most directly affected me. --- Perhaps Ashar would consider another Update Where 'LantzR' setting me back to enabled. ;^)

Cheers,

Lantz
