:::{{re|Dmehus}} Help me please remove the bureaucrat flag from this account [[User:Shakil4578|Shakil4578]]. This is my second account.— [[User:MdsShakil|MdsShakil]] ([[User talk:MdsShakil|talk]]) 06:11, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
::::{{ping|MdsShakil}} {{Done|[[Special:Redirect/logid/14036|Done]]}}. Yes, that's because [[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureacrats]] can only ''add'' the <code>bureaucrat</code> bit. [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consuls]] can ''remove'' the <code>bureaucrat</code> bit, though you ''could'' also log in to [[User:Shakil4578|Shakil4578]], if you preferred, and then remove the bit from that user's own account. You can see which groups you can add and remove at [[Special:ListGroupRights#bureaucrat|this special page]]. Additionally, likewise, only [[meta:Stewards|Stewards]] can remove the <code>consul</code> bit on TestWiki and the <code>bureaucrat</code> bit on other wikis. Hope that helps.

== Test blocks and permissions changes ==
Hi MdsShakil,
I've observed you performing a few test blocks and permissions changes on other users. Though it's not necessarily official policy, it is indeed a best practice to perform test blocks on [[User:Example]] or, even, really, any other globally locked spam only account would be just fine, or your ''own'' account or other alternate accounts you may have. With regard to permissions changes, though, again, it is established convention, which should be respected absent extraordinary, compelling reasons ''not'' to, to ''only'' grant <code>[[TestWiki:Administrators|sysop]]</code> (or above) ''upon request''. Please kindly take care to do this going forward.
To be clear, you're doing a {{Done|great job}} with respect to reverting your test edits and log actions; I just wanted to provide you this important guidance. Thanks.
Cheers,
<br />[[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 02:50, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
