To avoid a situation where critical BIP reviews may go unnoticed during this period, reviewers may, at their option, still cross-post their review on the comments page, provided they plan to review any new versions and remove or revise their comments as applicable. Such revisions should be made by editing the previous review and updating the timestamp. Reviews made prior to the complete version may be removed if they are no longer applicable and have not been updated in a timely manner (eg, within one month). Pages must be named after the full BIP number (eg, "BIP 0001") and placed in the "BIP Comments" namespace. For example, the link for BIP 1 will be https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_Comments:BIP_0001 . |
