The '''suppressor''' user right allows users to perform an enhanced version of [[$1|revision deletion]], called suppression.‎

Edit

They can do this by ticking ''Apply restrictions to administrators'' which hides the revision from sysops, as well as other users.‎

Edit

This also produces a message in the private suppression log, instead of the public deletion log, which only other suppressors and [[$2|stewards]] can see.‎

Edit

This is one of the six default MediaWiki user groups, see [[$3|User rights and groups]].‎

Edit

Additionally, suppression can be used to hide a username that is grossly inappropriate from the [[$4|username list]] at the same time as indefinitely blocking them.‎

Edit

This feature will also suppress the username from most logs and edits, although the username may still be visible in some places, such as rollback edit summaries.‎

Edit

Suppressors can also perform an advanced form of page deletion, which hides the contents of the deleted page from administrators as well as other users.‎

Edit

This right is automatically granted to stewards and system administrators, who can assign it to themselves. As of April 2025, non-steward suppressors (NSS) are no longer being appointed. The community reached a clear consensus to abolish the NSS role going forward. One existing NSS, [[User:X|X]], will retain suppression rights until resignation or promotion to steward. Afterward, only stewards and system administrators will have access to suppression.‎

Edit

Here is an incomplete list of things that can, and will be suppressed:‎

Edit

Personal information: IP addresses of registered users, doxxing, location, phone number, etc.‎

Edit

Copyright infringement and other illegal activities, though regular administrative measures like page or revision deletion may be used to hide the infringement if the infringement is relatively minor‎

Edit

Serious personal attacks: that serve little or no administrative value where hiding protects the community‎

Edit

Other grossly insulting material that needs to be hidden to protect the community: Grossly inappropriate or pornographic images, moving pages to grossly inappropriate names, etc.‎

Edit

Any other material that the suppression team deems unfit for public view‎
