This patch to includes/Article.php and languages/Language.php (HEAD) removes the confirmation checkbox from deletion, protection and unprotection pages, this reduces the steps an admin needs to take to three steps from the previous four. Before the patch the deletion process is the following: 1) follow the "delete" 2) fill in a reason for the deletion 3) check the deletion confirmation checkbox ("Yes, I really want to delete this page") 4) submit the request via the "delete" button. This patch removes step 3 as shown above, the change has previously been discussed on the wikitech-l mailing list in this thread: http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2004-August/024521.html
Created attachment 339 [details] The patch against includes/Article.php Removes the relevant HTML as well as the wfMsg's.
Created attachment 340 [details] The patch against languages/Language.php Removes the relevant messages from Language.php.
Created attachment 341 [details] The patch against languages/Language.php A new patch which only removes the 'confirmcheck' message since the 'confirmprotect' and 'confirmunprotect' messages are used elsewhere on the same page (which is a bug in itself..)
Committed to HEAD.
