*'''Local wiki champs''' (local-champs group):
**Deleting pages
**Protecting pages
**Mark pages for [[Help:How to use the Translation tool|translation]]
**Restoring deleted pages
*'''Waze Staff''' (Sysop/interface administrator group)
**'''Editing interface messages''' - changing interface wording, stylesheets and scripts.
**'''Manage user right''' - grant user rights to other users.
 
Note that local wikis' permissions can be adjusted by request of the local community members.
 
==Global wiki permissions==
The Global wiki is restricted for editing by all except for the users assigned to the '''Champs''' permission group and '''Waze stuff'''.
