New user groups on skwiki and RCPatrol on skwiki
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The skwiki community approved the addition of new user groups:

  • autopatrolled (Hlasovanie o autopatrolled below)
  • patroller/new page reviewer (Hlasovanie o new page reviewer below)

Simultaneously, the patrolling of individual edits (RCPatrol) was approved. (Hlasovanie o preverovaní editácií below)

Community voting >>> https://sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Hlasovania/Autopatrolled

In the discussion, the community was slightly leaning towards the fact that rights should be assigned by administrators. The specific local politics for allocation these user-rights will be resolved at the skwiki community level subsequently.

As of now, this is not really actionable. From the description and the voting, there is clear consensus on introducing autopatrolled and patroller user groups at skwiki, which can be done. However, it is NOT clear who is supposed to be granting and revoking those groups (by default, it is stewards only, which is likely not intended) .

The description says the community is "slightly leaning" towards admin granting. This signalizes it is not part of the community consensus yet. At https://sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Hlasovania/Autopatrolled, I can see bureaucrat-granting mentioned. Unfortunately, the voting misses a "summary" section, which would clearly say what the community actually agreed on.

The specific local politics for allocation these user-rights will be resolved at the skwiki community level subsequently.

Without having at least the technical aspect ready (which user group is responsible for granting those two new groups), it is not really possible to add the two new groups (or more precisely, it is possible, but only stewards would be able to grant them, which is not really useful). As such, I'm marking this as Stalled until this can be clarified.

Per https://sk.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikip%C3%A9dia%3AKaviare%C5%88%2FWikipolitika&diff=7766935&oldid=7765390 skwiki prefer that rights be assigned by administrators. I thought admins couldn't assign the flag technically - but is more efficient for skwiki if has the more administrators rather than fewer 'crats ability to assign user-rights.
