Should all members have access to History on a public story?

[severenz]

Currently I believe only story owners can see the "history" page of a story. Since contributors is open I don't see any reason why history shouldn't be. What you all think?

Personally, I don't see why we have that feature in the FIRST place, but...

I wouldn't like the thought of people being able to see it. It's a bit personal to see how many edits and re-edits go into a work, not to mention outright deletions. I can't think of an actual reason why this is bad, though. I just enjoy withholding info- it's not like anyone else needs to know.

I agree. I want people to see the finished product of my story, not all the messy stuff that came before. When a book is published, you don't include five rough drafts full of red marker and angry notes from the editor. So why do it here?

[End Master]

Yeah, only the story owner should be able to see the history page of a story, nobody else really needs to see what's been edited and such.

What they said.

It's all about the finished product. Not the trial & error.

I concur.
