::The bot is being run by Justa. And I can configure it to check if the IA made changes in mw namespace, or made changes to css/js.

::I'm not sure why it needs to be administered by a steward. The bot only has permission to remove the group, not assign it. As for the technical reasons, I believe the concern was about the potential damage an interface admin could cause — but in this case, the bot doesn’t assign the group; it only has the right to remove it.

:::If Justarandomamerican is running the bot, then I have no concerns with this proposal, though would note Inactivity Policy doesn't apply to <code>chatmod</code> and <code>reviewer</code>, so not sure why this would be removing those groups. |

:::As for why it needs to be a steward, yes, I get that this bot would only be ''removing'' the permission, but the administration of the Interface Administrator user group isn't subject to community decision-making. It's strictly a steward-administered user group. I suppose stewards could delegate a non-steward to run the bot on a case-by-case basis, sure, but that would be stewards deciding to do it. It isn't something the community is able to decide. [[User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 17:50, 19 April 2025 (UTC) |
