Requests for Comment/CU and OS local policy

Make a policy regarding local use of CU and OS tools
Something that MatthewPW, Amanda and myself have stood up for since day 1 is the ability for wiki founders to be able to use CheckUser and Oversight without needing to be a full-out steward. Now that Miraheze has an offical privacy policy, I think that the time has come to draft a policy regarding the local use of these rights. I have drafted a couple of proposals to get things started, but users are welcome to add more.

Proposal 1
The CheckUser and Oversight tools will remain only assignable by stewards and sysadmins, but wiki founders can request access to these tools at any time. These requests will be granted unless there is an unforeseen reason why they should not be handed out.

Personally, I would go for proposal 2, but this would work as well. --- DeltaQuad  (talk contribs email), 22:27, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Proposal 2
Defaulting to the bureaucrat group, but being restricted to the "founder" group if it exists, the technical permission will be granted to allow the appropriate users to assign themselves to the checkuser and oversight groups. This would basically be the "userrights" permission, just disallowing self-granting of steward rights.

Comments
This would be the ideal scenario. --- DeltaQuad  (talk contribs email), 22:27, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Proposal 3
The bureaucrat group (by default) on local wikis would have implicit access to these rights included in their other permissions.

This could cause some security issues if a bureaucrat account was ever to be compromised. --- DeltaQuad  (talk contribs email), 22:27, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
