Board Thread:Wiki discussions and announcements/@comment-3308937-20170117041558

So, some of you may be aware that there are currently 3 "moderator" ranks. These are Content Moderator, Thread Moderator, and our own custom Moderator rank. Content mod and Thread mod are fairly recent additions by Wikia that are pretty similar to our own existing rank with some slight differences. You can view the full specifics of each rank by looking at Special:ListGroupRights but basically:

Content Moderator:
 * Delete pages
 * Protect pages
 * Undelete pages
 * Rollback
 * Move files

Thread Moderator:
 * Delete/Edit/Move comments
 * Chatmod
 * Forum admin

Moderator:
 * Block users
 * Delete pages
 * Move files
 * Rollback
 * Delete/Edit/Move comments
 * Blog edit/move
 * Roundabout chat moderation by being able to add/remove banned from chat to user permissions

My proposed change is to go back to just using our own moderator rank but to add to its permissions chatmod, forum admin, and page protection. The only iffy right is undelete and I think that one should stick with admins+ due to the sheer amount of destruction that it combined with other commands can cause (ask User:TehAnonymous why no comments from before July 2011 exist on Vayne's page).

So, uh, leave your opinions on the matter below and whether or not you support my proposal.
