'''Rightsbot''' is a special type of [[TestWiki:Bots|bot]] user group that shares ''most'' (see the [[TestWiki:Rightsbot#Exceptions|exceptions]] below for a list of the <code>bot</code> rights that [[TestWiki:Rightsbot|Rightsbot]] does ''not'' have) of the same user group rights as [[TestWiki:Bots|the bot user group]], but with one important addition: it has the ability to remove all user groups, except [[TestWiki:Consuls|the Consul user group]], in the course of performing the monthly [[TestWiki:Inactivity|Inactivity]] notifications and rights removals of inactive [[TestWiki:Administrators|administrators]] on '''Public Test Wiki'''.

=== Exceptions ===
As noted above, '''Rightsbot''' does ''not'' possess three user rights normally afforded to all approved [[TestWiki:Bots|bot accounts]] on '''Public Test Wiki'''. They are as follows:
* Not create redirects from source pages when moving pages <code>(suppressredirect)</code>
* Not have minor edits to discussion pages trigger the new messages prompt <code>(nominornewtalk)</code>
* Quickly rollback the edits of the last user who edited a particular page <code>(rollback)</code>

'''''Note:''''' Although it is technically possible for there to be more than one [[TestWiki:Rightsbot|rightsbot bot account]], because it has the ability to remove the [[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]] bit from any user, the bot operator, or proposed bot operator, should be a current [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]].
