On Irony Wiki, user accounts may belong to one or more '''user groups''' that give them additional permissions. Think of them like roles on Discord. This page serves to provide a basic overview of common user groups. A more technical list is available at [[Special:ListGroupRights]].

== User groups ==
=== Autoconfirmed ===
'''Autoconfirmed users''' can edit semi-protected pages and bypass CAPTCHAs. This is the easiest user group to obtain; it is automatically granted to all user accounts that are at least one day old and have made at least five edits.
 
=== Administrators ===
'''Administrators''' have many extra permissions relating to the moderation of the wiki. Their abilities include:
* Blocking (and unblocking) users from making edits
* Protecting pages to limit who can edit them
* Editing pages that are fully protected so that only administrators can edit them
* Deleting and un-deleting pages
* Marking pages for translation
* Checking the IP address of temporary accounts (used by editors who are not logged in)
There are currently '''[[Special:ListUsers/sysop|{{NUMBEROFADMINS}}]]''' administrators.
 
=== Bureaucrats ===
'''Bureaucrats''' can change the user groups of any user. They can also rename users.
 
There are currently '''[[Special:ListUsers/bureaucrat|{{NUMBERINGROUP:bureaucrat}}]]''' bureaucrats.
 
=== Interface administrators ===
'''Interface administrators''' can edit the wiki's user interface, including JavaScript and CSS.
 
There are currently '''[[Special:ListUsers/interface-admin|{{NUMBERINGROUP:interface-admin}}]]''' interface administrators.
 
=== Check users ===
'''Check users''' can use the [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:CheckUser|CheckUser]] tool to check the IP addresses used by any user. They must have a good reason for doing so (such as to investigate spam or abusive accounts), in accordance with the [[Irony Wiki:Privacy policy|privacy policy]].
 
There are currently '''[[Special:ListUsers/checkuser|{{NUMBERINGROUP:checkuser}}]]''' check users.
 
=== Suppressors ===
'''Suppressors''' can [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:RevisionDelete|hide aspects]] of any edit (such as the username, edit content, or edit summary) from public view, as well as see edits that have already been hidden. This is usually used in response to privacy concerns or upon a [[Irony Wiki:Request revision deletion|valid request]].
 
There are currently '''[[Special:ListUsers/suppress|{{NUMBERINGROUP:suppress}}]]''' suppressors.
 
=== Rollbackers ===
'''Rollbackers''' can revert the latest edit to a page with a single click. Administrators also have this ability.
 
There are currently '''[[Special:ListUsers/rollbacker|{{NUMBERINGROUP:rollbacker}}]]''' rollbackers, and '''{{#expr: {{NUMBERINGROUP:rollbacker}} + {{NUMBEROFADMINS}} }}''' total users with rollbacking ability.
 
=== Widget editors ===
'''Widget editors''' can edit pages in the [[Special:AllPages/Widget:|Widget namespace]]. These pages are restricted for security reasons since they allow raw HTML. Interface administrators also have this ability.
 
There are currently '''[[Special:ListUsers/widgeteditor|{{NUMBERINGROUP:widgeteditor}}]]''' widget editors, and '''{{#expr: {{NUMBERINGROUP:widgeteditor}} + {{NUMBERINGROUP:interface-admin}} }}''' total users with widget editing ability.
