The update to version 6.5 implemented a different scheme of user privileges I have listed the default values below. We don't want to give any special privileges to regular users because those could be used by spammers. I propose that we create a new user group "Editors" for people who we trust and who work on the wiki content, we can then create a set of "Sysop Like" permissions that would allow things like patroling. The last section in this list is my suggestions for permissions for the "Editors" group.

Can't we just give users the patrol ability? Patrol can't be used maliciously, can it? The only thing it could do would be to hide spam a bit, but that's a lot better than turning off the patrol function. I use the patrol function and really like it. Plus, I'd like others to be able to use it as well (like Sean). [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 13:30, 5 July 2006 (EDT) | Can't we just give users the patrol ability?
