Description Bruno Medeiros CLA 2016-03-11 08:04:07 EST
I was logged in to the wiki and tried to do some changes to https://wiki.eclipse.org/Languages_Tools_Factorization

After submitting I get a message on top:

"Success: your edit has been sent to moderation.
You can continue editing your version of this page"

According to Mickael Istria this is a bug and I should have had permissions to edit the wiki straight away. Also, after re-opening the browser page, I can't even see my suggested wiki change anywhere either.

Due to some incidents of wiki spam around the new year, we've enabled moderation on all new edits.  Once you have enough approved edits you will be able to bypass moderation.

Resolving as invalid as this is the intended behaviour.

Ok, but is it possible to see one's submissions while they await moderation?
Comment 3 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2016-03-11 11:17:49 EST
I don't think so.  I suspect if you continued to edit the page the moderation system would simply 'merge' all of your changes into a single moderation request.
