Add `centralauth-rename` to the `wmf-officeit` group
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

All members of the wmf-officeit group were also added to the global renamer group so they can rename staff accounts if there's a need for it. I am proposing that the centralauth-rename permission be granted to the wmf-officeit group instead. I guess this'll need Trust and Safety and/or WMF-OIT approval, for which I'll contact the relevant groups.
