User groups/hy

This article is about user groups and rights on MediaWiki. For offline groups of Wikimedia users, see Wikimedia User Groups.

The following is a list of user groups in the Wikimedia Foundation projects. It is organized in approximate descending order of permissions. Note that the order is not directly correlated to power in the proper sense of the word, but rather refers to technical access in the MediaWiki software. Be aware that, though the technical abilities are the same on all Foundation projects, certain groups' definitions and roles differ from wiki to wiki.

Global user groups

See also Global permissions and Global groups .

Global bot

Global bots have bot access on all wikis where global bots are enabled (this must be explicitly permitted by local policy; see a list of allowing wikis). Global bots are subject to the standard bot policy , which limits these bots to specific tasks.

Global rollback

Users with global rollback can revert a series of edits by one user with one click on any wiki, primarily intended for vandalism and nonsense. Users must be demonstrably active in crosswiki counter-vandalism for access.

Global sysop

Global sysops are users with sysop access on multiple small wikis, mainly for the purpose of fighting vandalism in the absence of local administrators. They are appointed after a lengthy discussion on SRGP.

Staff
