Manual talk:Establishing a hierarchy of bureaucrats

From mediawiki.org

Question: Why not name the highest suggested group bureaucrat? That would save some lines of code :) --MF-Warburg (talk) 02:01, 18 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Good point. Another fix I want to make is having the other groups grey out after you check one of them. Leucosticte (talk) 09:41, 23 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Should 'sysop' be included in $wgHierarchyGroups and the permission set loop?[edit]

In looking at the logic of the foreach loop, it seems that the function of the loop is to find all permissions that are currently assigned to the 'sysop' group, and then assign those permissions to the groups listed in $wgHierarchyGroups. Since, by definition, all of the permissions assigned to 'sysop' are already assigned to 'sysop', do we really need to include 'sysop' in the $wgHierarchyGroups list? Seems like a no-op to me.
