 * Discussion from user's talk page that lead to promotion (with minor formatting changes):

I decided to see what your user rights were, and was shocked with what I found!!!
You now have full user privileges. I have NO idea why you didn't before, you are the top editor. I left bot unchecked, and you may check it when you use a bot. Otherwise it confuses your edits as bot edits and they get hidden from most users in Special:RecentChanges. I would personally like to thank you for your MANY contributions!

uh ok. time to time i wondered why i couldn't do un-delete article and such. maybe this was the reason. i am still not 100% sure what each user group does, and DDO wiki:Administration guideline and linked pages arent completed yet... but thank you. yoko5000 12:42, March 15, 2012 (EDT) Undelete was broken until recently and I have been working with Xevo trying to figure out the details of each user group.

 * Special:ActiveUsers has been there, I think that you just didn't have access until I promoted you. I intend on attempting to put together a solid "Standard Operating Procedure" for user group promotions and detail privileges and responsibilities today. I've also noticed a lot of the "Special:" pages need some help, as in appropriate filters and such.  An example might be Special:ActiveUsers could use a filter so I can see 7, 14, 30, 90, 180, or 365 days activity.. ShoeMaker 09:28, March 16, 2012 (EDT)
