Wiki 24:Administrators

From Wiki 24

Wiki 24 administrators are users with sysop rights. They are empowered to perform maintenance and security tasks but are in no way superior to other users, and their opinions do not necessarily carry more weight. They are bound to policy, just as any other user, and differ only in their access to certain abilities in order to more effectively enforce the policy.

Administrators are elected by the community on the nomination page.

[edit] Administrator responsibilities

Administrators at Wiki 24 have the following responsibilities and access privileges:

Active patrolling of the wiki. Admins above all ensure that both the project and community of Wiki 24 run smoothly. They welcome new contributors, participate in and foster community efforts (such as the Featured article vote), frequently check the recent changes page to swiftly delete obvious vandalism and address issues as they arise, offer advice and information to users requiring help, and meet legitimate user requests for assistance that require admin access.
Deletion and undeletion. Admins can view deleted material, and can delete and undelete whole or version-specific pages and images from Wiki 24. This is done generally to carry out the consensus of the community regarding articles for deletion, and also to remove spam and vandalism.
Protecting pages. Admins can protect and semi-protect pages from further changes in cases of vandalism or content disputes. This should happen only in certain rare circumstances.
User block and unblock. Admins can ban users from contributing to Wiki 24, either for a specific amount of time, or indefinitely, for any of the following policy violations:
- Sock puppetry (the abuse of multiple accounts)
- Spamming (such as advertising to external sites or repeat postings)
- Trolling (unacceptable user harassment, hostility, or intimidation)
- Vandalism (such as posting nonsense and gibberish, making offensive remarks in articles, page blanking, legitimate content removal, insertion of false information, etc.: Wiki 24 has a zero tolerance policy on vandalism)
- Unacceptable usernames
MediaWiki namespace. Admins (and Wikia employees) may edit the protected pages in the MediaWiki namespace. These pages are used to define the text and style of the user interface.
