The Audiovisual Identity Database is led by a team of '''administrators''', whose job is to maintain the wiki's activity and ensure protection from unwanted edits.
Different users have access to different functions of the site. While anyone can do most things on the site, including reading and editing, '''administrators''' can access a few additional functions.


Here is a list of administrators on AVID:

== Administrator abilities ==
== Scope ==
Administrators should use their powers to combat vandalism/spam, and keep the wiki running in an orderly manner. Administrators have access to many additional functions which include:
These additional functions include:
* Manage pages and files on the wiki, such as deleting and protecting
* Deleting and undeleting pages, page histories, and uploaded files.
* Change visibility of undesirable revisions of pages
* Locking ([[{{ns:project}}:Protected page|protecting]]) a page so it cannot be edited or renamed by users without admin rights or autoconfirmed status.
* Respond to [[AVID:User Reports|user reports]] by warning or reminding users
* Blocking IP addresses or user names from editing; and very quick "rollback" of undesirable edits.
* Block users from editing pages; admins also have the option to "roll back" a number of edits from that user on a certain page
* Editing the interface by changing system messages and skins.
* Modify system messages via [[Special:AllMessages]]

* Close [[AVID:Requests for Comment|Requests for Comment]] prematurely given criteria listed in the landing page is met
== 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 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Assume_good_faith good faith].

== Who are this wiki's administrators? ==
This wiki's administrators are listed above. If an administrator's username is linked in a page, it will appear green (unless the username has special characters in it).

To see who moderates the CLG Wiki chat, see [[CLG Wiki:Chat moderators]]. These users do not have the rights listed above, yet possess special rights for the chat. The administrators listed above also carry the same abilities as chat moderators.


== Appointment and revocation ==
== How do I use administrator powers? ==
=== Eligibility ===
See [[Help:Administrators' how-to guide]] for a guide on using admin functions.
While there is no codified eligibility requirements, bureaucrats have guidelines set at [[AVID:Requests for Permissions]] on who is generally determined as eligible for Permissions.


=== Election ===
== Becoming an administrator ==
To request to become an administrator or bureaucrat, please go to [[CLG Wiki:Requests for adminship]].
To request to become an administrator, please go to [[AVID:Requests for Permissions]].


Once a vote is open, it must remain open for a minimum of 1 month and achieve a 70% support ratio in order for it to be called as successful.
If you are an administrator who would like bureaucracy, contact a bureaucrat from the list above.


=== Revocation ===
== What can administrators not do? ==
By precedent and convention, administrators may have their rights revoked by a simple majority vote which takes place in the [[AVID:Requests for Permissions#Requests for Revocation|Requests for Revocation]] section of the Requests for Permissions page.
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 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Assume_good_faith 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 community.
