Moderation notification
- An edit is made to a page you moderate.
- PetroWiki generates an email notification.
- The email is held in queue until that evening.
- This insures one email for multiple edits.
- At approximately 23:00 (GMT-6) the notification is sent to all page champions that moderate the edited page.
- One email notification will be sent every evening.
- The email notification will stop if one of the following actions occur:
- You approve or reject the edit.
- The edit has been approved or rejected by at least two other page champions
