I can only agree with your position WRT hypothetical requests, but this task is a UI bug in my mind, not a hypothetical request. There's no reason for a non-admin user to see admin apps at all, which they cannot do anything with anyway: it's just setting the user up for failure.

I wasn't trying to revert, I was just trying to copy-paste some of the markup of an old version of a wiki doc. Since I was copying from a previously deleted section, I understand why the result was empty: it was copying from the right side of the diff which was empty. That said, that was very non-intuitive.

From your point of view as an instance administrator, do you think this is valuable enough to spend 2-3 days building instead of other features?

swisspol added a comment to T8881: Ask 2nd confirmation when disabling instance on Phacility.

To add more context for when I say I didn't do by accident, it's because I didn't read the fine print, so ultimately it is my fault. BUT I didn't read it because I would expect only 1 important thing in there: the name of the instance to suspend. And since I had only 1 instance, it was pointless to read. It turns out there are 2 critical pieces of information in this dialog: the target instance AND the fact you cannot re-enable it on your own even though the UI hints otherwise.

Jul 19 2015, 6:54 PM · Phacility
swisspol added a comment to T8879: Prompt user to enter instance name when disabling instance on Phacility.

The other problem with the current dialog is that the default action is the destructive one, so just pressing Return will accept the dialog, which you can easily do by mistake. Forcing the user to enter the instance would also address this problem.

+1 to get this to happen. Easily and "officially" connect a Phab project and a wiki page is very useful, especially for new users when needing to navigate around. You can certainly make a convention but then it needs to be enforced and this never works 100%.

  • I don't see how this is inconsistent with existing actions: the menu does not contain only "Add" actions today: Change Status, Change Priority... so you can have "Change Projects"
  • How is this different from race conditions if 2 people edit the task at the same time (using the main form)?
  • A comment field to Edit Task might be a good thing in itself, but that's separate from this issue which is to make a common UI action (removing / replacing project) as efficient as adding projects

This is surprising to me, since Facebook had people whose responsibility this was (from pretty early on, I think). I do most of it in this project. We don't have a huge volume of tasks (about a dozen a day) but triage takes very little of my time.

I'm fine with having support for this in Herald vs truly built-in. What matters to me is having the automated ability to ensure every task is going to be looked at by someone. There's never going to be a 100% full-proof solution, but requiring neither project or assignee increases the probability of lost tasks which I have seen in practice. Having a designated task janitor to regularly look for tasks without projects and redirect them is not practical nor reliable IMO.
