Discussions over specific topics may need to take place from time to time. PetroWiki offers moderators a convenient place for asynchronous communication through the moderation task page. Starting or joining a discussion is easy when you follow a few short steps.
Edit requirements
Discussions can only be started if a page has been edited by someone. If a page has not been edited but moderators would like to discuss a page then a simple edit can be generated on the topic page in order to create a discussion link.
Minor edit
Do not use "Minor edit' when creating a simple edit. Minor edits do not go through moderation.
Who can contribute
Only the moderators assigned to the topic page can contribute to the discussion.
Daily email alerts
Task alerts
When an edit is made to start a discussion a daily email alert of pending moderation tasks will still be generated until the edit is resolved as accepted or rejected.
Discussion alerts
Alerts are not generated on the discussion forum. Moderators will need to log in and check the discussion area for responses.
