We frequently have to make a lot of repetitive edits to foundationwiki and need to assign the "bot" flag to users. It would probably be a lot easier if admins didn't have to wait for a bureaucrat to add and remove the +bot, so Philippe and I thought it would be a good idea for us to get the "flood flag" enabled on Foundationwiki. Can you help? :-)
Casey didn't respond to my ping on IRC so I'll put this here: could you confirm sysops should be able to add/remove the flood flag?

That looks correct to me. Sysops should be able to flag themselves as a bot (flood) and be able to de-bot themselves.
Done.
