Organizer Account: Talk permissions in Team settings are unclear #1271

Description

@hpdang

When creating a new team under an Organizer Account, the Talk Permissions section currently provides two options:

- Can work with and change proposals
- Is a reviewer

The first option is misleading. Its label suggests a limited ability to edit proposals, but it actually provides significantly broader management permissions than a basic reviewer, including:

  • Editing all proposal details
  • Changing proposal states (accept/reject/waitlist)
  • Managing submission metadata
  • Overseeing key parts of the review workflow
  • Performing actions well beyond standard reviewing

Suggested Improvement

  1. Reviewer — can only review submissions
  2. Reviewer Manager — can edit and manage submissions, change states, and oversee the review workflow (replaces “Can work with and change proposals”)
