Hello šŸ™‚ We are using the MathJax plugin but there are still users that do not know how to write with it. So there are a lot of posts that contain bad formulas like a+5=9. We are trying to create a special group of users that are allowed to edit and fix those posts (this is the only privilege this group gets). How can I create a new group of users that can edit and fix other userā€™s posts per one category? Thank you šŸ™‚ ---

If itā€™s the original post, you can enable `Make new topics wikis by default` for the category, but that works only for the original post and anyone will be able to edit it. ---

> [@pfaffman](#): > > anyone will be able to edit it. Isnā€™t it anyone who has the minimum trust level to edit wiki posts? From memory that setting defaults to trust level 3 (TL3). P.S. @verilog15, you can allow a group of users to have some moderator powers in a specific category: > [@Category Group Review/Moderation](https://meta.discourse.org/t/category-group-review-moderation/116478): > > mega There have been many changes to this feature since first released.

Small update to this one - thereā€™s some discussion of the potential for a group-enabled setting which may cover this use-case: > [@Separate 'trusted users can edit others' setting for trust levels 3 & 4](https://meta.discourse.org/t/separate-trusted-users-can-edit-others-setting-for-trust-levels-3-4/257312/2): > > I am generally warm to adding this fidelity though I would prefer to just ā€œde-trust levelā€ these settings if we do a split and change them so they are group based. edit\_all\_topic\_groups (default: trust\_level\_3) edit\_all\_post\_groups (default: trust\_level\_4) This also automatically add a bunch of extra flexibility and I feel the name of the settings are fairly clear. @mcwumbly thoughts. Not sure when we can slot this, it may be a candidate for #pr-welcome. ---
