I was thinking, after the talk about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Vandal_fighters which doesn't terribly look like it's going anywhere, why don't we possibly "bundle" a few of the other userrights into one, such as my proposal below:
User right: "Superuser" Rights included: rollback, autopatrolled, reviewer, accountcreator As far as who would grant/revoke such a right, I would personally want bureaucrats to do that job, as that is their natural-given right as bureaucrats (to grant/revoke userrights). Some pros and cons that I forsee: Pros: Consolidating userrights, increasing transparency for those are not wiki-experts, less stuff for sysops to do, less confusion Cons: Abuse of one of the tools like rollback (as with sysops), trend seems to be for "unbundling" rights instead of "bundling", updating those users who aren't around anymore, dispute on procedures to grant this (i.e. simple request, "requests for adminship"-type voting, etc.) I'm throwing this out here to see what people would think. Any thoughts? -MuZemike _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
