[Mediawiki-l] Sysop rights

Tue Sep 16 15:13:33 UTC 2008

Here's what I see in your user's list:

Henny (Sysop , bureaucrat )

Note the extra space after "Sysop" for Henny.  I suspect that has
something to do with Henny not being able to perform Sysop functions.
How did Henny get to be a Sysop?  And what happened to WikiSysop, the
user created by default when installing Mediawiki?  There is another
user in the list with Sysop priviledges that look normal.  Can you login
as that user?

When I installed it, I created only one account. The other two are
users.

I am willing to grant anyone who is willing to dive into it, all the
necessary information to get into the system and solve the problem.
