 * Non-wikia staff may only add Crats, Sysop and Rollback. Only wikia staff can turn on more user rights or asign Wikia Staff. Lcawte1.png – Talk - My Wikia's list - New Wiki Watchlist 18:37, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * On most Wikia wikis, bureaucrats can make other bureaucrats, sysops, and rollback. I also thought founders are bureacrats by default. However, it isn't wise to assign rights to users without understanding how they work and what they are for. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 3:51 PM PST 21 Apr 2010

Your pagename talks of permissions, which would indicate you mean rights, but your examples seem like groups
 * "Wiki Staff" seems like something that would be easily confused with Wikia Staff, and also seems be what "administrators" are.
 * "Account Creator" is not needed at Wikia. We have open account creation, and accounts are global to Wikia, not to any 1 wiki.
 * "Stuff" isnt very specific

What new rights did you have in mind? Rights are only useful if there is code to use them. We can make adjustments to permissions and groups on wiki, but you need to show that you have an actual need for having them customized. Once you have worked out what you actually need, please send a request to us at Special:Contact. Be sure to let us know the wiki if you are sending it from here. --Uberfuzzy 18:58, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
