D.Gray-man Encyclopedia:Administrators

Administrators are trusted users around each wikia that can help editors or advice them whenever they obtain questions or task that they must do to make the wiki that they are representing in good shape. Administrators are chosen by other administrators and by the community, if they put their requests and the reason why they want to become a administrator. Another top one is the Bureaucrat, a very hard position around each wiki which is only granted to administrators if they really believe that they can achieve something from the wiki's that they are representing. A bureaucrat is actually almost the same as administrator, the only thing that they can do is to grant other editors who want to become administrator those rights. Here is a short outline what a administrator can do:


 * Administrators got automatically rollback rights, which they can undo vandalism, spoilers, advertisements or false information to the last one who have edited, evenly if the same user edited 5 times in a row.
 * Administrators can protect various kind of pages, but it is only used if there is coming a edit war, or preventing it, perfecting a page to avoid edit conflict, a very delicate template or page or their own user pages to prevent vandalism on their own user pages.
 * Administrators also can delete different kind of images, templates, pages or anything else, only if it is necessary.
 * They can also block users who are causing uproar by vandalising, attacking each other pages, arguing or neglecting administrators dealings thinking what they feel what's best but isn't.
 * They can also edit MediaWiki pages, but they must only editing it if they have knowledge about how they can use them.
 * They can edit the wikia's skin, adding a new logo or favicon for the wiki.
 * Can rename pages, templates or images.

Actually not a big deal what a administrator must do. Anyway becoming a administrator is a serious task. If you want to become a administrator than prove your loyalty.

 * Two months since joining the Wiki. Ever since joining, at least one month of moderate contribution have been made. Exceptions may be made.*
 * English is at an acceptable level, with very minor grammatical errors. (Knowing a certain amount of Japanese, and/or possibly a bit of Chinese, is a bonus depending on what you know.)*
 * Have respect for other editors, as well as the rules.
 * Good amount of knowledge about the subject of this wiki, D.Gray-man. We admins will evaluate this by looking at what knowledge you contribute to this wiki.*
 * A majority of the community must support you in a nomination. (A clear advantage is required to pass).
 * Depending on the applicant, there could also be one or two more requirements that will be explained.

The "*" means "the more, the better". For example, the more edits you have to your name, the better chance of becoming an admin. Even so, make sure to also have the other requirements filled in.

Inactive administrators or bureaucrat
