Summary: no possible deletion with delete user right

Initial Comment:
my bot (Crochet.david.bot) had a Test-administrator group statut (so not the sysop group statut), but this statut have the delete rights (as the sysop group statut) in the incubator wikimedia project.

So, as you can see with the terminal output (attach file)
the bot can't delete.

I'm told by david that wgUserGroups reads 
var wgUserGroups = ["bot", "test-sysop", "*", "user", "autoconfirmed"];
on the incubator, meaning that site._rights[1] will be ["bot",
"test-sysop", "user", "autoconfirmed"]

Then, when isAllowed('delete', True), boolean checks " 'delete' in
site._rights[1] ", it returns False, and it raises a LockedPage exception.

David also tells me that his admin user rights (on wikiversity-fr) are
"var wgUserGroups = ["sysop", "*", "user", "autoconfirmed"];". This means
that even with "normal" sysop rights, "delete" is *_never_* in var
wgUserGroups.

I don't have sysop rights on any projects, so I can't really diagnose much
more on this problem, but are we sure that we are still able to delete
pages here ? Isn't somewhat broken ??
