Add people to a group

குழுவில் ஆட்களைச் சேர்

Two questions. Which group — a new one or one that already exists. Then who — from a list, or by choosing from members. Four combinations and one screen to learn, and the same preview at the end whichever way you came, because the preview is where splitting, the people WhatsApp will not let us add, and the people who asked to stop are all reported.

What kind of group is itஎந்த வகைக் குழு

Asked once, here

Only one kind has a lifetime. Choosing a Mandala cohort adds a start date and shows when it dissolves — everything else on this screen stays the same, so there is no second flow for the one group type that ends.

A group of its ownதனிக் குழுMembership is a selection somebody makes, person by person. A coordinators' group, a teachers' group, a group of the people who came to one event. This is the only kind that can sit above a centre.
A Mandala cohortமண்டல அணிOne cohort, about forty-eight days, and then it dissolves and everybody moves into their own centre's main group in one step. The only group here with a lifetime.
Volunteersதன்னார்வலர்The volunteers at this place. Volunteering is a flag and never a stage, so everybody here is also in their own stage group.
A stage groupநிலைக் குழுEveryone at this place who is currently at one stage. Who is in it follows from each person's record rather than from anybody putting them there.
The main groupமுதன்மைக் குழுEveryone at this place, whatever their stage. One per centre, and it already exists at every centre here.

Where it attachesஎந்த இடத்தில்

Any level of the tree

A group belongs to a place in the organisation — a centre, a district, a region or the state — and nothing special-cases a centre. What the place decides is who may administer the group and who may see it. It never decides who is in it: membership is explicit, always, or a state-level group would mean tens of thousands of people and a WhatsApp group holds 1,024.

Attaching to Pollachi (centre). Look at it

What it is calledபெயர்

Left alone, it is called Pollachi — new group. Coordinators say the name of the group out loud to each other, so it is built from the place and the purpose rather than from an id.

What would be createdஎன்ன உருவாகும்

Pollachi — new group

பொள்ளாச்சி — Above a centre

Kind: Above a centre
Attached to: Pollachi · Centre
Holds: 1,024 people, then a second part opens

Nothing is created by this screen

Not the group, not one person, not one message. The group is created at the end of the flow, in the same step that adds the people — because a group nobody is in is a thing somebody has to remember to finish.

Next — who goes in it →Or take over a WhatsApp group that already exists

Why taking over a group is not one of the two answers

Adopting a WhatsApp group from its invite link is creation by a third route — the people are already in a room and we are joining it — rather than a way of choosing who goes into a group we control. Folding it in here would make one of these two questions mean two different things. It has its own screen.
