Please create an "autopatrolled" usergroup at metawiki
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Per above discussion I request the creation of the "autopatrolled" user group at meta.wikimedia.org. The group will have the following rights attached to it:

  • Have one's own edits automatically marked as patrolled (autopatrol)

Administrators should be allowed to grant and revoke this right from any user.

Thank you,

  • DF

DF: Might be worth wile suggesting to the community to see if they would object to the right being added to the "Autoconfirmed" group.

DF: Might be worth wile suggesting to the community to see if they would object
to the right being added to the "Autoconfirmed" group.

Was suggested and that idea got opposed. I think that the consensus of that thread is to create a separate usergroup rather than adding more rights to an existing usergroup. Can be re-discussed, of course, but I do not think bugzilla is the right place to do that ;)

Regards.
DF.
