Add 'abusefilter-modify-global' to stewards at Meta-Wiki instead of having it through global group
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Currently the permission is handled through Special:GlobalGroupPermissions, although if you try to create a global filter outside Meta it won't let you do it. It makes sense that this be part of the local steward group at Meta-Wiki unless of course there are technical restrictions to do so.
