--- Comment #2 from [email protected] 2011-09-19 17:00:56 UTC --- Since sysops can make sysops, we want to have a way for bureaucrats to enforce a desysopping so a random sysop can't come and undo it. The idea was to use wgRevokePermissions to create a revoke group, so a bureaucrat could add someone to that group and then it wouldn't matter if the user was a sysop or not, they still wouldn't have the actual rights. Thanks to wgRevokePermissions this works for everything but access to Special:Userrights. The UserrightsChangeableGroups hook would be an alternative solution, but it was removed in 1.16 because it was unused. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
