We need a new user group created. The users in this group should not be able to
create new pages in article namespace but they should be able to do every other
edit a regular user can do.

Some users keep adding new articles without responding to community's messages
and manual of style. This is especially a problem when large number of users
taking part in a non-wiki project do this as a group of users. Such behavior
results in needless workload for the community and reduces the quality of our
Wikipedia. So, we want to create a new user group as mentioned above which may
help in forcing them to improve their existing articles before adding new
articles in bulk.

We ran a poll to this effect and community has consensus in creating this user
group.
