"This is a quote example." - Author

This page documents a rule.
This is a standard that editors should follow for purposes of improving the quality of content on the wiki.

Insert footer description or information here.


In this wiki, there are different users who have access to different functions of the site. While anyone can do most things on the site, including reading and editing, administrators and bureaucrats can access a few additional functions.

Administrator Abilities

These additional functions include:

  • Deleting and undeleting pages, page histories, and uploaded files.
  • Locking (protecting) a page so it cannot be edited or renamed by users without admin rights or autoconfirmed status.
  • Blocking IP addresses or user names from editing; and very quick "rollback" of undesirable edits.
  • Editing the interface by changing system messages and skins.

Bureaucrat Abilities

A bureaucrat can make other users into bureaucrats or administrators on their own wiki.

Bureaucrats can also give users the ability to "rollback" edits not made in good faith.

FANDOM Staff

FANDOM Staff members have full access to all Wikia. They will be shown in Special:Listusers/staff on any wiki. If there are any problems, please use Special:Contact to contact Wikia staff.

Who is the wiki's crew?

The "founder" of a wiki, the person who first requested the wiki to be made, is given administrator access automatically. Founders are also given bureaucrat access so they can make any other user on their wiki an administrator or bureaucrat. For a complete list of users with administrator access, see Special:Listusers/sysop.

You may also wish to list them on this page by editing the template below.

NOTE: Admins/Bureaucrats (or sysops) have their name tags to be colored mint green and bold. Content Mods have their name tags to be colored olive and bold, Chat Mods have their name tags to be colored dark red and bold.

How do I use Administrator powers?

See Help:Administrators' how-to guide for a guide on using admin functions.

Becoming an Administrator

For you to become an administrator, someone with bureaucrat access must make you one. You can request adminship by asking an active bureaucrat via discussions, blogs, or ask a bureaucrat directly on their message wall page.

However, not anyone can be an administrator. Users who are trusted here and have had the most experience editing here may request adminship if there aren't many active staff members.

If there are no active bureaucrats and you wish to become an administrator or adopt the wiki, please contact the community staff. If there are other active editors but no active bureaucrats/admins, you should first discuss with them on who should become an admin, whether it be one of you, or all of you.

For more information, see also the Community Portal.

What Administrators should not do?

Administrators should not use their administrator powers to settle editing disputes; for example, to lock a page on a version he or she prefers in an editing dispute that isn't vandalism.

Administrator powers should be used to help keep the wiki clear of vandalism, spam, and users who make malicious edits, but not for simple disagreements between users acting in good faith. Ideally, an admin shouldn't be considered "in charge". The ideal admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wiki community.
