Summary: Special:Userrights/u...@wiki presents the wrong list of
user groups for changing
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Keywords: crosswiki
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: Special pages
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: mike.lifegu...@gmail.com
CC: skizz...@gmail.com
The userrights-interwiki right allows stewards to change any and all user
groups available on a given wiki. However, the form is built as though you're
chainging user group membership for the local wiki, not the remote one. Thus,
when changing someone's usergroups on enwiki you have the option to change
'flood' (which isn't a group that exists for enwiki) and you do not have the
option to change 'rollback' (which is a right that exists for enwiki, but not
meta).
The form needs to be built properly, using the user groups from the target
wiki, not the one you're changing rights from.
