This wiki has been closed since its contents were shifted to an external host. Unlike other closed wikis the admins and crats were not removed, and it is desirable that the rights are removed for these rightsholders.
Oh, the discussion and request from WMUK can be found at [[m:Special:PermanentLink/9331985]]
This is a steward thing, not an actual site request.
For other closed wikis it has been undertaken as part of the closure of the wiki, not separately. Plus as the discussion states, there is a longer list, and without ready reference to double check, it seemed more authoritative to do this as a data management issue.
hmm, or not removed systematically.
As this wiki isn't even accessible we decided it would be easier to remove all right holders server side. mysql> DELETE FROM user_groups; Query OK, 64 rows affected (0.00 sec)
