Advocacy Website Roles
There are 3 website roles in the Advocacy community: Leader, Affiliate, and Participant. Leaders have XWiki edit/admin privileges, and Affiliates have XWiki edit privileges. The roles in User Groups are the same as the Advocacy space, whereas Projects are slightly different. Website roles are explained in detail in the Roles & Collectives document.
