Hey, would it be possible for this log to say it is also stewards, I know that this log also lists action from Special:userrights which is used by stewards. Matt/TheFearow (Talk) (Contribs) (Bot) 23:37, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Yes check.svg|20px]] Done. Cheers. --MZMcBride 02:10, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I've reverted. Steward actions show up on the Meta log (m:Special:Log/rights, which is already linked from the message), not here on Wikipedia, so here it really is a log of 'crat actions and nothing else. --ais523 15:41, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Dash
Please replace the three spaced hyphens ( - ) with spaced en-dashes ( – ), per the Manual of Style. For consistency...

Also, why is that date blue? It looks like some sort of substitute for the appearance of date-linking; personally, I consider it redundant. Waltham, The Duke of 20:59, 14 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes check.svg Done For consistency and not because of the Manual of Style.  I don't really think the MoS matters outside of content namespaces. - Rjd0060 (talk) 22:10, 14 September 2009 (UTC)


 * They are two sides of the same coin really; Wikipedia has a house style, so it makes sense to display and promote it through the system announcements and warnings. I know the MoS technically only applies to the mainspace, but if the official pages do not follow it, who will? Waltham, The Duke of 22:20, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Adding event coordinators
Due to the addition of the event coordinator user right in accordance with this RfC, please change: This is a log of changes made by bureaucrats, administrators, and course coordinators to user rights. to: This is a log of changes made by bureaucrats, administrators, course coordinators, and event coordinators to user rights.

 * Yes check.svg Done Nice catch. I put EVC before course coordinators as that group is deprecated and won't be adding any more entries. ~  Amory  (u • t • c) 20:01, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I trimmed it a LOT more, see edit summary. — xaosflux  Talk 20:14, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I think the intent of the material there was to be clear that only locally-initiated changes to user rights could be found in the log – do you think there's a more concise way of saying that? Kevin ( aka L235 ·&#32; t ·&#32; c) 04:03, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * how is it now? — xaosflux  Talk 10:23, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Looks good to me! Kevin ( aka L235 ·&#32; t ·&#32; c) 12:57, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

This would serve to explain the "type of right change" option at the bottom of Special:log/rights.

Please change the entire message to This is a log of changes to user rights performed locally by users ("manual" changes) or by system rules ("automatic" changes). You may enter either or both of:
 * Performer – the name of the user who changed the rights (just their name)
 * Target – the name of the user whose rights were changed (written with the prefix User: )

The list of user groups and their associated permissions is on Special:ListGroupRights.

The log does not show:
 * Changes of rights by stewards (such as checkuser and oversight user rights) – see the meta global rights log (Enter usernames like this: User:Doe@enwiki )
 * Local rights changes made prior to 24 December 2004 – see Bureaucrat log.
