# MSC2175: Remove the `creator` field from `m.room.create` events
|
|
|
|
[`m.room.create`](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.5.0#m-room-create)
|
|
events have a mandatory `creator` property giving the ID of the user who
|
|
created the room. This field is redundant as it is always identical to the
|
|
`sender` of the create event.
|
|
|
|
This MSC proposes that, in a future room version, this field should be removed
|
|
and that the `sender` field be used instead.
|
|
|
|
Note that `creator` is mentioned in the [auth
|
|
rules](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/rooms/v1#authorization-rules). It can
|
|
safely be removed.
|
|
|
|
`creator` is also mentioned as a key to be preserved during [Event
|
|
redaction](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.5.0#redactions). It
|
|
should be removed from that list.
