FAMEPedia:Global rights policy

The implementation of global user rights on Miraheze projects extends to FAMEPedia. This policy defines their use on this wiki.

Stewards
Stewards may use their global rollback permission on FAMEPedia, and may use Special:Undelete to view deleted revisions in the course of their duties as stewards. They are also permitted to use the oversight tool to suppress abusive usernames. According to m:Stewards, stewards will not use their technical access when there are local users who can use that access, except in emergencies. In emergency situations where local users are unable or unavailable to act, stewards are asked to use their global rights to protect the best interests of FAMEPedia.

In their global role, stewards grant CheckUser and Oversight permissions to all projects (per Arbitration Committee or Board decision), and can remove all permissions (in an emergency situation, in response to a user's self-request, per Arbitration Committee or Board decisions). These actions can affect FAMEPedia, but are done at Steward requests/Permissions and logged at meta:Special:Log/rights.

Sysadmins
Miraheze system administrators are people who do systems administration work on the Miraheze servers. They can change the Miraheze site's live copy of MediaWiki, read server logs, etc. Those with server access can also carry out various non-development tasks.

The Miraheze Limited legally controls the servers, so the Miraheze Board are ultimately responsible for determining who has sysadmin access. However, they generally delegate this responsibility. On a day-to-day basis, various sysadmins with root access manage the server accounts.

System administrators may use their global rights in whatever manner they deem necessary to manage the Miraheze Limited's assets.

Global sysops
The global sysop group is not activated on FAMEPedia as community consensus to opt in was not attained. By default, the proposal applies only to wikis with fewer than 10 sysops and/or fewer than 3 active sysops.

Removal of rights
A user who abuses their global rights by knowingly or recklessly using their global rights on FAMEPedia in contravention of this policy should be reported to Stewards' noticeboard or #Miraheze-stewards immediately, where the stewards will determine whether an emergency removal of tools is required. An indefinite block may also be placed on the account locally during this period if necessary to prevent further abuse (see the above section).

Additional global groups and flags
In addition to the above there are additional global groups not defined in this policy. They are: API high limit requestors, Abuse filter maintainers, Abuse filter helpers, Recursive export group, New wikis importers, Global deleter, Miraheze Researcher, Founder, CAPTCHA exemptions, Global IP block exemptions, Two-factor authentication testers, WMF ops monitoring and Global Flow creators. Two global account flags are Locked global accounts and Unified login accounts.

Also, some Meta-Wiki local groups have global effects. These are Meta Administrators, Meta Interface Administrators,Meta Central notice administrators, Meta Global renamers and Meta MassMessage senders. Additionally, WMF staff in Miraheze Office IT and the Meta Miraheze Support and Safety group meta groups have global effects.
