'''Interface administrators''' are users (typically [[TestWiki:Administrators|administrators]]) who can edit the interface (pages in MediaWiki namespace). Any [[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]] or [[TestWiki:Consuls|consul]] can assign this user right to any trusted user (usually an [[TestWiki:Administrators|administrator]]), including themselves,sitewide andCSS/JavaScript the right can be revoked for misuse or where the user [[w:Dunning—Kruger effect|overestimates their level of competence]]pages and makes repeated errorsother inusers' thisCSS/JavaScript areapages.
 
== Criteria for granting ==
For security reasons, it is granted ''only'' by [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consuls]], preferably on the user talk page of any [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] or, failing that, at [[TestWiki:Request permissions]] to:
* [[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|Bureaucrats]] who are:
*# Established;
*# Highly trusted; and
*# Very active (as measured within the past thirty (30) calendar days).
 
In addition, the requesting <code>[[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]]</code> '''must''' have a clearly articulated ''need'' for requesting the bit.
 
== Criteria for revocation ==
The bit may be removed by either a [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] or the Consul-operated [[TestWiki:Rightsbot|Rightsbot]], as applicable, in either of the following cases:
# The user loses their <code>[[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]]</code> bit for ''any'' reason, including for [[TestWiki:Inactivity|inactivity]];
# The user has misused the bit or is no longer sufficiently trusted; or
# The user is largely inactive but otherwise meets the looser [[TestWiki:Inactivity|inactivity]] policy.
 
== Specific user rights ==
Its full list of user group rights is as follows:
