Hello @Malikxan. Which rights should this group have? I see that you already have the rollbacker group with only the rb flag. Thanks!

Hello @Superpes15. Thank you for your message. The patroller group should have the right to patrol new pages. Additionally, the pages created by patrollers should be autopatrolled by default.

Additionally, the pages created by patrollers should be autopatrolled by default.

Do you mean the edits? So the patrollers usergroup should have 2 flags:

  1. Autopatrol: Have one's own edits automatically marked as patrolled
  2. Patrol: Mark others' edits as patrolled

Please let me know if I understood wrongly. Thanks!

@Superpes15: Yes, you understood correctly. The patroller group should have the autopatrol and patrol flags.
