Administrator instructions for Requests for permissions:
Administrators are permitted to grant account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, file mover, mass message sender, pending changes reviewer, rollback and template editor flags to any user who meets the criteria outlined at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions#Permissions and can be trusted not to abuse the tool(s).
The prerequisites that candidates should meet for a given permission represent consensus but may be discounted at the discretion of the responding administrator. A brief outline of expectations can be found at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions#Permissions, but you may wish to review the corresponding documentation page for that permission for more information.
Note if a request was recently declined for a given user/permission, a bot will comment with a link to that discussion. You may wish to ping the administrator who declined the previous request asking for their input before responding to the new request.
To grant the permission:
To respond to the request:
((User:MusikBot/archivenow))Helper script: The above process can be expedited using the script User:MusikAnimal/userRightsManager.js. Once installed, click "assign permissions" on any PERM page, enter optional closing remarks in the popup dialog, and the script will grant the right with a permalink to the discussion, and issue the corresponding talk page template.
To override where the bot archives, use ((User:MusikBot/override|d)) for approved, or ((User:MusikBot/override|nd)) for denied. This will override any other ((done)) or ((not done)) templates, and make the bot ignore the user's rights.
To re-open a request, deactivate the resolution template using the code ((tl|template name)), as with ((done)) or ((not done)). Strikethroughs like <s>((done))</s> or other means to suppress the original resolution template will still be registered as resolved by the bot. Only deactivating or removing the template will work.
All requests are archived at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Archive as approved or denied. This is done as a historical reference, namely so that admins can review previously declined requests.
N hours after the last comment was made on a request (as specified by the bot's config), the discussion is removed from that page and an entry containing a PermaLink to the discussion is added to the archives, noting the user and the permission. This archiving process is fully automated and should not be attempted manually.
For convenience, the requests for permissions pages are clerked by MusikBot. See User:MusikBot/PermClerk for more information on the tasks and how to configure them.
