Translations:MassMessage/8/en

The additional user right is called "$1" and is only assigned to local administrators (sysops) by default. Previously, anyone on an on-wiki access list (including non-administrators) could easily send out mass messages. Your local community should consider its options: adding a viral user group (i.e., anyone in the user group can add others to the same user group), allowing administrators to assign the user right in a specific user group, or setting up a "requests" page queue for administrators to process. Please be cognizant of the fact that MassMessage, at its core, does little more than automate what any user could do with browser tabs without even logging in.
