Which projects should be lifted? Enwiki I guess?

How many participants do you expect?

Change 406820 had a related patch set uploaded (by Urbanecm; owner: Urbanecm):
[operations/mediawiki-config@master] New throttle rule, clean obsolete rules

Sorry, should have specified. En.Wikipedia. The room has 30 computers so that would likely be the maximum number of accounts.

Thanks. In the future, please always request at least a week in advance. Our teams that are an absolute requirement for safe deployment are offsite and I cannot guarantee this request will be fulfilled. Please prepare a backup solution in case this won't work. Thank you for understanding.

Apologies, this is my first request of this nature. Thank you.

No SWAT are planned until next week. We will not be able to deploy this change at time.

I've requested the account creator right for User:Gamaliel on enwiki.

I added accountcreator to Gamaliel on enwiki, I don't expect this will DO anything, as this editor is already +sysop.

This is resolved and if patch is not merged with giving accountcreator right to user which requested this.
