ok, some background information :)
nl.wp uses the mark as patrolled system, wich worked quite well till
Vandalfigher came around. The main problem is that people who use vandal fighter
are unable to mark an edit as patrolled, causing other people to check that edit
at a later time. When they see the edit already taken care off and this
happening time and time again they get upset, to the point of people giving up
on checking edits for vandalism completely.

The easiest solution in my eyes is to support the mark as patrolled system by
ensuring that links postend to the irc contained the rcid. I introduced a config
variable for giving people the choice to either work with the mark as patrolled
system or not, and I changed the url's transmitted to the irc program by adding
the rcid to them.

In my opinion, it is not yet enough, but still necessary, to output
the rcid to the irc output. CryptoDerk's Vandalfighter has
subsequently to take this value as well and append the &rcid=<value>
to the url by which an article is called up in the browser. I'll draw
Cryptoderks attention to this "bug".

Could you supply us with a copy of this question so that people watching this
bug actually have an idea why it has been reassigned?

[23:27] <Obarskyr> CE jap nu fix dan ook die bug als je hem assigned hebt ;)
[23:28] <CE> ja obarskyr, daar ben ik ook bang voor
[23:28] <CE> ik dacht dat het systeem heel anders werkte
[23:29] <CE> ik meende dat er eerste een aantal gebruikers accoord moet gaan met
de melding voordat ie wordt opgenomen (ASSIGNED)
[23:34] <CE> kan ik de status weer terugzetten op NEW zodat iemand anders ze kan
oppakken
[23:34] <kim_register> CE, lijkt me wijs
[23:34] <kim_register> want die zou het wel eens kunnen
[23:34] <CE> kim, lijkt mij ook wijs, maar ik weet niet hoe dat te doen
[23:37] <Obarskyr> CE fixed , niets doen
[23:37] <CE> ok, heb jij het opgelost obarskyr?
[23:37] <Obarskyr> ik denk het

This is a part of the IRC log in question. I am not allowed to publish the whole
log, so this are only bits and pieces of the communication. I hope this will be
enough as 'proof' of my action. Basically it was a mistake of CE to assign it.

This was my first experience with bugzilla. It was my mistake to change NEW into ASSIGNED. On IRC I asked
for help to get the status NEW again. Sorry for the inconvenience. I will try to be more careful in the
future. Chris (CE)
