Patrolling and Amdocs Review

 * Did you see anything while patrolling this past week that would be interesting to discuss with the team?

Too many changes are being submitted without summaries. Is it possible to put into the template at the bottom of the page (near the blue lettering "Please note" a reference to why we need a Summary, OR... would it be better to set the preferences for any user to the field requiring a Summary. Those of us familiar with Wiki editing can change our preference as desired.  Robin will go over this with Lee.


 * 1) See what is being touched.
 * 2) Catch potenial attacks
