User talk:Zhuyifei1999: Difference between revisions

I think no upgrade is needed, see [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:RevisionDelete#Enabling Enabeling 'hideuser'] because Extension Oversighter is integrated since 1.6 but disabled by default. What I'm not sure is, if one has to become oversighter in order to get that right, or if the bureaucrat can assign it to just any user??

: Bureaucrat can change a user's user groups, but not [[Special:ListGroupRights|user group rights]]. They are stored in LocalSettings.php, a configuration file in the backend. To change the file requires "upgrade" (a way of saying backend changes). Oversighter is a wikimedia user group that hides information, but its name doesn't have to be "oversighter". Which groups can hideuser only depends on the configuration. --[[YiFei]] | <small>[[User talk:Zhuyifei1999|talk]]</small> 07:49, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
