Maintenance
Updates to the Editor Rank dataset is done directly in the {{Rank}} template. That one location feeds all sources of that information, so Wiki editors don't need to update multiple locations. This ensures synchronization.
Public table view
The list of parameters is useful for Wiki editors, but mostly useless for end users. For that reason, the public view of these parameters is better presented as categories with the descriptions including the value of the parameter. For those reasons, a second table was created for use on Editing restrictions#Rank table. Expand the table below to see the public view.
