            Bug ID: 44205
           Summary: rename userrights to usergroups
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General/Unknown
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Several variables and strings should be changed to clarify that bureaucrats
(and other users with the so-called userrights permission) can only change user
*groups*, not user rights individually.

- the "userrights" permission should be renamed to "usergroups"
- the description of that permission in Special:ListGroupRights
  should be changed from "Edit all user rights" to "Edit user groups"
- Special:UserRights should be changed to Special:UserGroups
  or even better, Special:ManageUserGroups (with aliases in place
  for backward compatibility)
- Special:UserRights should mention that user groups can be created or edited
  by changing the definitions in LocalSettings.php, and provide a link to
  [[mw:Manual:User rights]] for instructions on how to do so.
