On this page users can formally request for special user rights. For more information, please take a look at the administrator page.
General Information[]
Functions/Positions[]
- Administrator/System Operator (sysop): has general rights, inclusive of rights of all other user groups except bureaucrat (handling articles and files: deleting and undeleting, locking or protecting, editing protected and important MediaWiki pages, blocking users, changing the themes and format, etc.) and can also grant moderator rights.
- Bureaucrat: has the ability to give positions to other users as well as all general admin rights, inclusive of rights of all other user groups.
- Chat Moderator: moderates the wiki's chat room.
- Content Moderator: has some of the administrator rights on mainspace articles and files (deleting, moving or renaming, undeleting, protecting and unprotecting, editing protected pages, rollback, patrol, etc.)
- Discussions Moderator: manages the Forum, blog posts, comments, message walls/replies, and chat, etc.
- Rollback: can easily revert edits.
Requirements[]
For a user to gain rights, several things must be considered, including:
- The user's history of contributions in the wiki, quality being weighed more importantly than quantity.
- Consistency as a mainspace editor (at least three months to be considered).
- Familiarity with wiki policies, templates, wikitext, and general style or format of the wiki.
- The user should have no history of serious blocks due to vandalism or the like in this as well as other wikia communities.
Procedure[]
Users may simply list themselves for a request for rights on this page, on the section below. To do so, please list your username, include a brief statement on your dedication to the wiki and sign it with four tildes ~~~~ (or click the signature button in Visual Mode).
Selection Process[]
- Please give the admins at least three to four weeks discuss and decide.
- Once approved, your edits will be evaluated and depending on your strengths, your position will be decided (e.g. if your edits are mainly correcting bad-faith edits and vandalisms, you might become a rollback. If your edits consist of several, great contributions to the articles, while you also try to communicate with the other admins and users, you might become an admin.)
- Other users may speak with other admins to vote in support or against a user requesting for the position.
- Only admins and bureaucrats may delete requests early at their discretion if the applicant is obviously unsuitable with no chance of succeeding. Other users may also request this by approaching other admins.
Current Requests[]
