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:

Manage pages and files on the wiki, such as deleting and protecting
Change visibility of undesirable revisions of pages
Respond to user reports by warning or reminding users
Block users from editing pages; admins also have the option to "roll back" a number of edits from that user on a certain page
Modify system messages via Special:AllMessages
Close Requests for Comment prematurely given criteria listed in the landing page is met

Appointment and revocation

Eligibility

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

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.

Revocation

By precedent and convention, administrators may have their rights revoked by a simple majority vote which takes place in the Requests for Revocation section of the Requests for Permissions page.

-* 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

-== Who are this wiki's administrators? ==
-This wiki's administrators are listed above.
-== How do I use administrator powers? ==
-See [[Help:Administrators' how-to guide]] for a guide on using admin functions.
-== What can administrators not do? ==
-Administrators should not use their administrator powers to settle editing disputes; for example, to lock a page on a version they prefer 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.
