The '''suppressor''' user right allows users to perform an enhanced version of revision deletion, called suppression. They can do this by ticking "Apply restrictions to administrators" which hides the revision from sysops, as well as other users. This also produces a message in the private suppression log, instead of the public deletion log, which only other suppressors and [[Special:MyLanguage/Test Wiki:Stewards|stewards]] can see. This is one of the six default MediaWiki user groups, see [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:User rights and groups|Help:User rights and groups]]. | The '''suppressor''' user right allows users to perform an enhanced version of [[Special: MyLanguage/Test Wiki: Revision deletion|revision deletion]], called suppression.
