To maintain this site's quality, we give people the tools to do so, after all, a small group of staff can't do it alone.

* [[Login]], can move (rename) pages, upload images, watch pages, be emailed from the site - [[Why create an account?]]
 
 
 
* [[AutoPatrolled]], a permissions group which has auto patrols edits, meaning that the persons edits are automatically deemed constructive and not needing review of each one.
 
 
 
* [[SiteReviewers]] - gives auto patrolled folks an extra tools to help with maintaining site quality, i.e to deem an edit constructive
 
** peerrev - is removed (superceded by SiteReviewers)
 
 
 
* [[InterWiki]] - people who are interested in linking the wiki world in [[AboutUs]] by maintianing the [[InterWiki]] table
 
 
 
* [[System Administrator]] ([[sysop]]), can make [[AutoPatrolled]] and [[SiteReviewers]], and [[delete]] and [[NoBot]] pages
 
 
 
* [[Bureaucrats]] - ability to create bureaucrats and sysops, and rename people
 
 
 
== Discussion ==
 
Currently this is called [[RecentChanges patrol]] - there is some movement to get away from the patrolling "bad" edits ideology and to review peer edits.
 
 
 
=== Is is good idea for peerrev folks to have deletion ability? ===
 
One conclusion is that the cons here outweigh the pros as explained with the of the "baby steps" text above.
 
==== pros ====
 
* category pages
 
* junk pages
 
* request for deletion
 
* adult images
 
* deletion log can be a way to monitor this as well as [[recent changes]] and would be auto patrolled.
 
==== cons ====
 
* it's concerning when a non trafficked page can be deleted with virtually no oversight
 
* by needing to check deletion log and [[recent changes]] it is creating more work.
 
* it is an action that doesn't show up on a watched list.
 
* deletion is not a fundamental issue for the site currently
