-==where is the total bloody beginner tutorial?==
-'''pretty experienced with userforums but really lost here'''
-I looked up the "help" section
-I looked up the FaQ
-I joined discord
-'''Still I am lost !'''
-non of these pages gave me any information how to proceed.
-The creator of this website - at least to me - seem to suffer what I call the experts blindness for beginner difficulties.
-I am not a website creator or a wiki creator. Still I would like to contribute to this website.
-But I have '''NO''' Clue how to do that. As I can '''NOT''' not even can post messages on discord
-I have chosen this way to send you a message by misusing the "create a page"-function for writing to you
-I am '''NOT''' familiar with
-- discord
-- creating wikipages
-I do not understand Your concept in which order to read on this website to get started. You assume wayyyy too much knowledge.
-And my main goal is to post an idea in a classical userforum. Something similar to the arduino-userforum.
-Now I am curoius of somebody well see this page and react to it. [[User:StefanL38|StefanL38]] ([[User talk:StefanL38|talk]]) 16:20, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
-:This would be better suited for the moderator noticeboard as this is not a system bug or security issue. Please ask for assistance in the [[Consumer Rights Wiki talk:Moderators' noticeboard]]. - [[User:Atsumari|Atsumari]] ([[User talk:Atsumari|talk]]) 16:31, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

 ::What you need to do is click on the 'Tools' button on the right above the article if you have it, and from there even if you don't have it on the right a 'move' button should appear.

+==New users have the editcontentmodel user right==
+The editcontentmodel user right (see [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:ChangeContentModel]) is currently bestowed (I believe mistakenly) to new users, which you can check via [[Special:ListGroupRights]]. This allows any logged-in user to change the content model of any page on the wiki between CSS, Javascript, JSON, plaintext, sanitized CSS, and wikitext, using [[Special:ChangeContentModel]]. On the English Wikipedia, this is a user right only granted to administrators and other such trusted user groups, I expect because it can massively reformat an entire page, and because I'm not sure if it checks for permission to edit the target page.
+I'm not a security expert, but maybe there's a chance there's a security problem as well involving placing malicious code in any namespace? Though, I don't think there would be a way to run the code. I'm more worried about potential vandalism.
+There's only been three uses of this tool (one use being a test by myself) on this wiki, so I'm sure you guys aren't going to be missing out on much by restricting usage of this tool to only trusted users. [[User:MEN KISSING|MEN KISSING]] ([[User talk:MEN KISSING|talk]]) 09:27, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
+:This is enabled by default in MediaWiki, presumably because wikis are intended to be permissive and collaborative by nature. Thanks for noticing though! I will be pushing an update shortly to restrict it appropriately. [[User:JakeL|JakeL]] ([[User talk:JakeL|talk]]) 18:52, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
+::I see the permission is now limited to admins and interface admins, good work!
+::Can I request that [[User:MEN KISSING/Sandbox|my sandbox]], where I tested the ChangeContentModel tool, be changed from plaintext back to wikitext? I'm not able to do it myself anymore. [[User:MEN KISSING|MEN KISSING]] ([[User talk:MEN KISSING|talk]]) 19:46, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
