User blog comment:Tariqmudallal/Suggestion: New usergroup "Admin-global"/@comment-1929113-20131119035902/@comment-3247345-20131119054019

It's almost a copy-paste. Whatever there is to be said about a global rollback group a global admin group is a terrible idea. We have VSTF that are basically global admins with a few extra tools to track down spammers, vandals, and sock puppets of those spammers and vandals. We have staff to handle everything else like social issues. Both exist to act when local admins don't. This proposal would have to supplant local admins to have any real meaning and and all the global rights groups specifically disavow any mandate to do that (except for staff in certain cases). I don't think any wiki would want someone they don't know being able to perform admins functions for purposes besides what we have VSTF and staff for.
