If no one objects, I'm going to change the cell color that represents (auto)confirmed users and the rollback permission from gray (denied) to yellow (depends), because some non-admin users have rollback permission. --- cymru lass(hit me up)⁄(background check) 01:09, 28 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Heh, never mind, just realized that it's covered by the "other groups" column. Please excuse the tired girl. --- cymru lass(hit me up)⁄(background check) 01:15, 28 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There has been a flurry of edits recently about adding a column for the Extended Confirmed access level. I personally disagree with this addition. Because this right only modifies one row of the table, it makes more sense to add it to the "other groups" column than to give it its own column, similar to groups like Researcher and Oversight. Please acquire consensus for the change here before adding the column back into this table. Mamyles (talk) 15:07, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have a spreadsheet with the columns Group, Right, Code, and Location (e.g. "Bots", "Not be affected by IP-based rate limits", "autoconfirmed", and "both" (UGR and UAL). I don't know what format you would like it, or how best to get it to you. Tagus (talk) 19:21, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Tagus: If there are errors with the template, you can just be bold and fix the template yourself --DannyS712 (talk) 23:34, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Why have two different statuses and colors for Denied and Revoked? They seem to act the same. Tagus (talk) 21:10, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It looks like "denied" is really "not granted" - revoked is about blocked users, which is an additional user flag different from a user's groups and associated permissions. The blocked flag overrides and revokes the permission they would otherwise have had. — xaosfluxTalk 14:07, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Special:ListGroupRights doesn't list the bigdelete, edittalk, oversight, and renameuser Permissions. I don't know if they are in Global or if they're deprecated now, so I left them in. Tagus (talk) 13:46, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Tagus: 'oversight' items are called 'suppress' , 'edittalk' is just part of 'edit'. The global permissions are viewable in Special:GlobalGroupPermissions. Almost entirely, renames don't use the local renameuser permission, as our projects are part of Wikipedia:Unified login and renames are handled at meta-wiki. — xaosfluxTalk 14:04, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Xaosflux:, thank you for the answers. I just updated the template without knowing much about the subject. Hoping "Bold" covers me. :-) Tagus (talk) 14:39, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The "Blocked users (sitewide)" has been removed from that recent overhaul, is it possible that anyone could bring that back? I appreciate it. 192.12.147.117 (talk) 13:23, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I removed it because (a) "blocked" isn't a user type, and (b) when updating the original version I found a lot of mismatches between what was in the table and what was in Special:ListGroupRights - with no way to "verify" the old "revoked" entries I don't really want to add them back in. Primefac (talk) 13:37, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That being said, of course, if someone does have an idea of how to do it, I'm all ears. Primefac (talk) 01:48, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Wugapodes, I hate to say I stopped watching the discussion on the newest PGM perm when it became obvious it was going to pass - is it bundled in with the Admin tools as well, or is it really just for pagemovers? Primefac (talk) 22:48, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That's what I figured, just couldn't remember (and don't feel like looking it up, yes I'm feeling lazy!). Primefac (talk) 23:26, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: Not Moved - It's been a week and no-body else showed up to cancel the mild oppose to this, which does not appear unreasonable. (non-admin closure) FOARP (talk) 21:57, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am mildly opposed to this, if only because they are transcluded elsewhere and have some measure of "inertia" being where they are. If someone else actually shows up to the discussion and is fine with moving it, though, I won't stand in the way. Primefac (talk) 20:47, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
