Description

Consensus seems to exist to give admins on en.wiki the ability to grant and revoke the "Uploader" user right. No objections as of this submission. I'm told this is a simple addition to the $wgAddGroups and $wgRemoveGroups arrays.

Consensus is also building to add "Edit semi-protected pages" to the Uploader user right. No objections as of this submission, however please check state of discussion before doing this. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VPR#add_edit-semi_as_a_feature_to_.22Uploader.22.3F )

Correction: Userright is currently known as "Uploaders" (plural). If it is expanded per #2, a rename may be in order if it won't cause too much trouble.
