I hope I did this right. Sorry if I screwed anything up. Thanks to X!, Bryan,
TimStarling, and werdna for all the help. I've been looking forward to this for
a while.

FYI, this group should only be given movefile. If it were to somehow get
reupload-shared... well the consensus seems to be... horror.

Can we please do the same for testwiki to allow testwiki to better reflect the current state of enwiki, and to allow testing on testwiki before admins on enwiki start granting the right?
