Hi! Since you seem to be the most interactive Staff member, and one of the few (if not only :P) who responds to message wall messages in a timely manner, I've got a few curiosities about Wikia which you might know.

What are the intentions and uses behind the,  , and   groups? I've seen these around, and used quite often, and I'm curious as to why they're needed and what they do.

Something else I'm wondering is what risk the  and   pages have. I can understand JavaScript restrictions and other potential pages, but why the simple MediaWiki interface pages?

Lastly (I think lol), what criteria do Staff generally look for when considering granting local Check User rights? That's something which has never been completely clear.

Thanks for any information you can give!
