#45961 [NEW]: post admin permissions

From: bastard dot internets at gmail dot com Operating system: n/a PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Website problem Bug description: post admin permissions Description: ------------ Regarding notes posts: http://news.php.net/php.notes/143060 http://news.php.net/php.notes/143301 http://news.php.net/php.notes/143304 Requesting website feature change - do not allow editing of user added notes to manual pages by any user other than the original author under any circumstances except if vital to the functioning of the php.net website or as required by law. Instead, allow only complete deletion of user added notes by authorized website moderators for the sole purpose of website moderation. Reason for this request is to prevent either obscuring the intention of the code example of the original author, or stealing credit away from the original author (either bad credit or good). My notes addition - http://news.php.net/php.notes/143060 - was overwritten by action http://news.php.net/php.notes/143304. Subsequently, the user of that overwrite action created post http://news.php.net/php.notes/143301 which, either intentionally or not, claimed responsibility for my original post and obscured the original intent of the code. I don't believe user felipe@php.net meant harm nor to steal credit in this case, and user's actions are still clearly tracked and public, but it's clear that this editing ability may be abused easily or cause confusion about the post origination and intention.
