For anyone that may be interested in seeing which WMF employees have
what advanced permissions, there is now a wikitable on meta
automatically generated from the Google spreadsheet that the WMF
maintains.
The table is at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WMF_Advanced_Permissions
I don't want to encourage folks to start relying on Google
spreadsheets(!), however keeping spreadsheets like this in-sync with
on-wiki tables is not a new issue. Anyone interested in how I did it
can find a copy of the Python script at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Faebot/code/advanced_permissions
I have also asked for a meta bot flag, as I'm planning for Faebot to
check/update the table once a week:
