Hi, Due to less active admins in our projects we have decided to introduce a
new user group "eliminator"

Just pointing out the glaringly obvious...why don't you just promote more admins who will be active?

Actually an admin have many rights like blocking user, protecting page and other lots of right are there.just for Deleting vandalised pages and copyrighted pages it will not suitable to make a active person as admins, but giving him opportunity to become a eliminator, editprotected and editinterface will improve his qualities and skills then after one year he may be promoted to admin.Thats why ptwiki requested on bug 24623 and their request was fullfilled.An admin have to do lots of work and every user have some his kind of interest like controlling vandalism, editing main page , protected pages to improve quality etc.

Making eliminator flag will not only stop addition of copyrighted material but also will remove vandalised pages.

Thank you and regards

Will any body resolve this bug

I still don't think this is needed...not at all. It promotes flag whoring and in most cases, its just easier to make new sysops. There's no reason to break it down, you either trust someone to use the tools responsibly or you don't. End of story.

No, I just do not agree, sorry. They can be an admin and do all those things, just because they have this right or that right doesn't mean they'll need to use it...but its there just in case.

Giving admin right will not better in my opinion for only deleting pages, just we have rollbacker to roll back edit, in your opinion we should give admin right to rollback edits instead of rollback right only.

I completely defer from your opinion, just only for rollback, delete pages we cann't give the most powerful tool right to users.

Done.
