Icon for the abuse filter administrators.
The abuse filter (or edit filter) is a tool that allows trusted users to enable controls on some types of unconstructive or disruptive changes. The current filters can be found on Special:AbuseFilter. Abuse filters can cause huge disruption if they are incorrectly configured or if even a small mistake happens.
User rights
Users blocked from the abuse filter (abusefilter-restricted
)
Users that are blocked from the abuse filter may not view filters, modify them, or view the abuse log. This group is grantable and removable by stewards at their discretion or upon a community partial ban from the abuse filter.
Abuse filter administrators (abusefilter-admin
)
Abuse filter administrators only have the ability to modify abuse filters with restricted actions (i.e. blocking). Stewards do not need to assign this right to themselves, as it is automatically granted as part of the stewards' tool package.
Granting and removal of the user groups
Because the abuse filter administrator user right could potentially cause huge disruption from filters that are configured incorrectly (i.e., set to block or revoke autoconfirmed status), it would be assigned via a user request and following a vote on the community portal and/or at least two stewards supporting it.
If a user misuses the rights granted within these groups, the steward responsible for oversight shall promptly remove the rights and, if deemed appropriate, may enact further disciplinary measures, including user blocking.
Furthermore, in adherence to inactivity policy, if a user does not utilize the permissions associated with the abuse filter administrator group for a maximum period of three months, their access may be subject to revocation.
