Give editors in plwikisource the suppressredirect right
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The plwikisource community decided in this discussion:
https://pl.wikisource.org/w/index.php?oldid=2145868#Zwi%C4%99kszenie_uprawnie%C5%84_redaktor%C3%B3w
that we wish grant the right to rename pages without leaving a redirect (the suppressredirect right; 8 users supported, one commented only, nobody opposed) to the editotors user group.
Editors are relatively advanced wiki users who have appropriate knowledge about project rules and wiki technology. And most pages renamed by them are simple typos or mistakes, when no redirect is needed.
