So, this is another discussion we sort of left open with no consensus one way or the other, at least in regards to the Content Moderator talk. You can read for yourselves all of the access options Here, but the main powers we'd be giving out are the following:


 * Rollback
 * Delete/Undelete pages
 * Move files
 * Overwrite existing files
 * Protect/unprotect pages (this also allows them to edit protected mainspace pages, but will keep them from accessing infrastructure pages that are protected to only users with certain user right groups)

I don't know for sure, but I do not believe that they receive the powers to delete files, or move pages, as those are listed separately for other user groups like Administrators.

Additionally, we weren't too concerned about the Discussion Moderator group, but if we were to grant the rights to a user, they'd receive, among other unimportant things:
 * Chat Moderator powers (kick/ban from the live chat module)
 * Forum Admin (not sure what this entails, but I think it deals with moving/policing threads)
 * Ability to delete comments on blogs and forum threads.

Essentially, if we were to give out both of these power groups to a single user, they would have most of the powers we do, outside of the following:


 * Block/Ban users
 * Work with (or bypass) abuse filters and IP/Proxie bans
 * Infrastructure access

We have five people recommended up there, and if no one objects, I'd like to see us promote them, which should be easy as we don't need a B-Crat to grant those user groups to other people. I also would be open to arguements about making some of them full administrators if we feel they'd be deserving of it.
