When Teh promoted you to moderator you had 5 total ranks: Chat mod, Thread mod, Content mod, Moderator, and Rollback, just seemed a little silly to me to have so many different ranks all for the same thing (moderation of the wiki). The new ranks might work on wikis that previously didn't already have a moderator rank but we've had this rank since I started and it has been an integral part of our command chain.

In regards to actual changes that would happen, you'd lost some things that don't really see much use (moving message wall posts, editing others wall posts, marking other users' edits as patrolled) and potentially undelete (not that it sees much use as is since you can always recreate a page, only reason to undelete something is to keep revision history and if you want that you can contact an admin).

Oh, so I was the reason? Not that I feel special, but it shows that the community head has their head on the ball. Nice to know.

Otherwise, I don't mind losing some of the privileges, as those were not the ones I intended on getting when becoming a mod. You do say they would go unused anyways, so no complaints from me about this change. As Will says though, it may be a good idea for non-mods to be the ones discussing this.
