Description Jake Wartenberg 2010-01-18 22:24:48 UTC
Right now, there is a single 'tboverride' right given to the 'accountcreator' group on enwiki.  This allows those users who work on the account creation team to bypass the title blacklist when creating accounts, but it also lets them edit pages that only sysops are supposed to be able to edit.  Creating a 'tboverride-acc' right that only allows the user to bypass the TBL for account creation would remedy this, if it was assigned to that group instead.
Comment 1 Brad Jorsch 2010-10-10 14:27:46 UTC
Note that discussion on enwiki would need to occur regarding what to do for those users currently granted "accountcreator" for tboverride unconnected to account creation before the enwiki configuration of accountcreator were to be changed to grant tboverride-acc instead.
Comment 2 Victor Vasiliev 2010-11-08 21:56:03 UTC
Should be fixed as of r76344.
