Wikitech:Stewards
On Wikitech, a steward is an editor who has the extra ability to:
- Delete pages with large histories (
bigdelete) - Edit all user rights (
userrights) - Not be affected by rate limits (
noratelimit)
This local group should not be confused with the Wikimedia global Stewards group. The commonality is largely the
userrights right.Appointment
Requests for steward permissions are handled in Phabricator using this task template.
