I am starting to use parts of Drupal in a wiki-like manner. I would like for Drupal to allow me to require the Log Message field to contain comments. If I am dealing with multiple revisions of a node, it can be nice to see Log Messages explaining changes.

To add, it seems this would be an appropriate option to select when you alter the content type.

Version: 5.1 » 6.x-dev

You can do this in a contributed module...simply implement a hook_form_alter that sets the log #required property to TRUE.

If we want to add this as a feature of the core revision system (which I think might be a nice idea), then we need to move the version to 6.x-dev as new features only go into the dev version.

Yes, I think it needs to be in core. Thanks for bumping to 6.x.
