According to MediaWiki you still have these rights: isAllowed('edit') returns true. However, executing certain actions requires more than just having the right rights, some require you not to be blocked or read-only mode to be off. In other words, having a certain right and being able to execute a certain action are not the same things. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
