Hi.
Is there some reason why the autoreview group (aka autochecked users) is
implicit? It can neither be given to nor taken away from a user by a
sysop/bureaucrat unlike the editor privilege.
Handling the autopromotion to an autochecked user in the same way as to
an editor would IMHO give the project administration more control over
it. For example, someone makes more harm than good - take autoreview
away from them. Someone has been blocked once but their edits are OK -
give it to them. And so on.
And actually I can't see any drawbacks of it but I don't know much about
technical details. Are there some any?
I'm talking with regard to a discussion on Polish wiki, which I have
begun, on enabling autoreview group. The implicitness of it has become
an obstacle.
