Interface administrators are users (typically administrators on most wikis; bureaucrats on this wiki) who can edit the interface (pages in MediaWiki namespace), including sitewide CSS/JavaScript pages and other users' CSS/JavaScript pages.

Criteria for granting

For security reasons, it is granted only by Consuls, preferably on the user talk page of any Consul or, failing that, at TestWiki:Request permissions to:

  • Bureaucrats who are:
    1. Established;
    2. Highly trusted; and
    3. Very active (as measured within the past thirty (30) calendar days).

In addition, the requesting bureaucrat must have a clearly articulated need for requesting the bit.

Criteria for revocation

The bit may be removed by either a Consul or the Consul-operated Rightsbot, as applicable, in either of the following cases:

  1. The user loses their bureaucrat bit for any reason, including for inactivity;
  2. The user has misused the bit or is no longer sufficiently trusted; or
  3. The user is largely inactive but otherwise meets the looser inactivity policy.

Specific user rights

Its full list of user group rights is as follows:

  • Edit other users' CSS files (editusercss)
  • Edit other users' JSON files (edituserjson)
  • Edit other users' JavaScript files (edituserjs)
  • Edit sitewide CSS (editsitecss)
  • Edit sitewide JSON (editsitejson)
  • Edit sitewide JavaScript (editsitejs)
  • Edit the user interface (editinterface)
