Description Woi 2017-09-01 14:15:18 UTC
Description of problem:

I now and then miss necessary permissions for bug reports or updates. For example I'm not allowed to change the version field or add keywords.
In addition I was unable to find any documentation about the default permissions of users, of Fedoras Bugzilla nor on how to proceed with issues like this. (See Bug #1487287 for my first attempt to get support with this)  


How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login to RH bugzilla as me ^^ (Maybe just create a new user and login)
2a. Try to add "CommonBugs" to the keywords of Bug #1441920
2b. Try to change version field of Bug #1259549 to 26
3. Notice the missing permissions to do so.

Actual results:
There is no way to change certain fields of bug reports for me (and assumable for default users)

Expected results:
At least the keyword field can be edited as suggested here:

Another example is Bug #1374051 where users are not allowed to reopen after auto close

I'm closing this bug as part of a Bugzilla cleanup effort. The most likely reason is that the bug has been opened either against a component we no longer publish, or against Release Notes for an EOL release.
