Description Fernando M. Muniz 2025-02-18 21:51:35 UTC
I though that this meant workflow efficiency until now, so I'm requesting a bit more detail for this keyword.

I agree in general with using more accurate words to describe things so that is less confusion, but where are you seeing this?

Not sure I follow?
I was using that keyword for bug reports regarding efficiency, until that dev's comment in the link clarified that it's not related to workflow efficiency.
How are users supposed to know that from just the word "Efficiency"?

Somehow you're the first person to run into this. :) The keywords aren't really advertised; where did you find this one?

I found it here.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2025-02-19 20:29:09 UTC
Interesting! Ok, I guess in that case it's more public than I thought. I'll see if it's possible to rename it without spamming the universe.
Comment 6 Fernando M. Muniz 2025-02-19 20:31:06 UTC
If that's the case, there are a couple of other things non-dev users can do that they aren't supposed to.
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2025-02-19 20:31:28 UTC
Done; renamed it to "efficiency-and-performance" which should make the usage clear.

Thanks!

What do you mean by this?
Comment 9 Fernando M. Muniz 2025-02-19 20:31:58 UTC
For example, I can change confirmed issues into something else, or confirm a issue myself :)
Comment 10 Nate Graham 2025-02-19 20:33:22 UTC
But why would we want to restrict that?

If you don't mind people being able to do that, then you wouldn't want to restrict, I guess.
However I can change this post from "RESOLVED - FIXED" into "REPORTED", which doesn't make sense, since the correct option would be "REOPENED"
Comment 12 Nate Graham 2025-02-19 20:38:56 UTC
That doesn't really matter. :)
Comment 13 Fernando M. Muniz 2025-02-19 20:41:48 UTC
Changing the target milestone matters? Apparently I can change it on some bugs, but not in others.
Comment 14 Nate Graham 2025-02-19 20:44:12 UTC
I mean, in general you should follow a policy of "if I don't know what this does, I shouldn't touch it." Otherwise you're just making work for other people to fix and annoying them. But we also want to empower people who are contentious and know what they're doing or can learn what they're doing to be helpful without a bunch of bureaucracy and formal authorization.
