Users with bureaucrat rights can manage user permissions. They can add or remove rights from user accounts. Typically, bureaucrats are sysops additionally, because the first step to promote a user is to give him sysop rights. Bureaucrats are basically the top-tier level of users on a wiki – all other UserGroups are subordinate to bureaucrats, and as such, actual numbers of bureaucrats will be generally quite limited.
If you, as a bureaucrat, want to edit user rights, go to the page "User rights management" (over Special pages)

- left: the groups the user is member of
- right: the available groups to the user
