An '''account specialist''' is able to create accounts for users and edit accounts so as to assist with account recovery. Account creation is done through [[Special:CreateAccount]] and editing is done through [[Special:EditAccount]]. The latter interface does not permit editing of account permissions, which is reserved to bureaucrats. All permissions available to account specialists are bundled into the bureaucrat permission. This permission is particularly easy to ask for due to it's limited scope. | An '''account specialist''' is able to create accounts for users and edit accounts so as to assist with account recovery.
