Let mr.wiki bureaucrats add/remove account creator flag

Description

Hello,

I am an admin and a 'crat on w:mr. Recently, I was asked to grant temporary Account Creator access to two users on w:mr for a large workshop they're coordinating.
I do not have enough bits to do this so I requested Stewards about it (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Steward_requests/Permissions#Account_Creator_grant-right_for_अभय_नातू@Marathi_wikipedia ). I was pointed to this place by one of them.

Can you please grant me the bits on w:mr so I can temporarily grant/revoke Account Creator access to w:mr users?

Let me know if more details are needed.

Thank you!

@abhaynatu Something has remained unclear. Here we don't grant right Individuals. Please Start the Discussion on local wiki Village Pump or any other Major place in favor of that crat can be able to grant/revoke Account Creator access to w:mr users. If consensus made on the local wiki then we will set grant/revoke Account Creator access to crat.

Unclear what is wanted. Does your community want for crats/sysops to be able to grant/revoke account creator rights? Or does your community want somebody to grant specific group to specific users? The first thing is done here on Phabricator, the second one is done by the stewards. For both things a formal vote/discussion is required. If your request is urgent, you want to ask for one-time granting by the stewards. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

I think what he wants is bureaucrats to be able to add/remove the account creator permission locally. In that case https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requesting_wiki_configuration_changes is the path to follow.

abhaynatu added a comment.Jan 10 2018, 5:48 AM

Marco understood it.
I have started a discussion at w:mr village pump to pursue a request to add this right to 'crats (as against a single user).
Thank you all for your time and attention.

The local bureaucrat had started the voting procedure on local Wikipedia. The results for the same are as follows

Support 10
Oppose 0

Therefore asking for Account Creator's right to be add and remove access be given to the local bureaucrat on Marathi Wikipedia

Thanking

@Tiven2240 and @abhaynatu I think You should create local policy first.

@Jayprakash12345 there is one created. The link can be found https://mr.wikipedia.org/wiki/विकिपीडिया:अकाउंट_क्रिएटर .
