Given that the program page is up for 2025, this extension would be beneficial for ad-hoc and side events.

Hi @Chinmayee_Mishra @Robertsky, we'll get this done asap (next week), I would only ask you to please confirm that the default configuration is fine:

• It would use the same global event list as all production wikis
• Invitation lists would be enabled by default; I guess it'd be useless for wikimaniawiki, so we can also explicitly disable them if you'd like
• The various user rights for the extension features would be given to a new event-organizer user group
• By default, event registration is allowed in the Wikimania and Event namespaces. You can change this after deployment via Community Configuration

@Daimona: Would it be possible to enable this user right for users with the autoconfirmed or confirmed user group, or have the event-organizer right on any other wiki?

This would reduce the bottleneck of having to request this permission on Wikimania wiki. This small adjustment would greatly support the workflow of many organizers who are organising side events and meetups during the time of Wikimania.

We can assign those rights to any local group, whatever y'all think would make the most sense. For example, on enwiki these rights are assigned to the eventcoordinator group (and there's no event-organizer group), and frwiki assigns them to autopatrolled alongside event organizers. But, we cannot check user groups cross-wiki.

So, we can assign these to (auto)confirmed users if that sounds good.

Yes @Daimona, understood. Please go ahead and assign the rights to the autoconfirmed/confirmed user group; that would be great. :)
