Bug #: 35283
Summary: Duplication of defaults in wgAddGroups/wgRemoveGroups
Product: Wikimedia
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Site requests
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Just after wgAddGroups in InitialiseSettings.php there is a good advice from
Werdna:
"The '+' in front of the DB name means 'add to the default'. It saves us
duplicating changes to the default across all overrides"
Unfortunately it is not followed as there are lots of duplicating entries. A
clean-up is evidently needed.
Could all duplications be removed? Namely 'sysop', 'bureaucrat' and 'bot'
should be removed from bureaucrat's entries and 'ipblock-exempt' from sysop's
ones in wgAddGroups and also 'bot' should be removed from bureaucrat's and
'ipblock-exempt' from sysop's in wgRemoveGroups.
In its current form the configuration file is confusing, which may lead to
copy-paste errors while updating configuration.
Thank you in advance.
