Hi, I've been thinking about asking staff to let bureaucrats add the "moderator" usergroup. As the BTSM, a well known spam fighting, group have been helping this wiki for around 8 months, only have a couple rights to help, rollback, chatmod, and patroller, the moderator group gives limited sysop rights, so instead of waiting for a sysop to see the report made by BTSM, they can manually do it themselves. BTSM are trusted users, of course. Moderators can: Tell me your thoughts, and thanks. :)
