I would like to propose that we make filling out
the summary field
mandatory on ever edit. Reasons:
* it makes the job of vandals and vandal bots harder, since they have
to come up with a meaningful summary each time.
* it makes the history page of an article vastly more useful; now I
often find myself employing the bisection method to find out when a
particular bit of information was inserted.
Filling in the summary field is in general a good thing to do, but
sometimes I find it stupid because the work it put in writing the notice
for the summary field is more work than the change of the article.
A pulldown menu whit some default comments seems a good way.
I use the auto-completion of my browser for
this task ...
So please allow the default comments to be
configured by the user, if you inclue them.
