== Administrator abilities ==
==Administrators==
Administrators are Chrono Wiki users who have sysop rights. While they do not own the Wiki and are equal to other users in terms of editorial responsibility, they are entrusted with several performance and security features to help ensure the smooth-running of the Wiki. Users may seek them out to perform maintenance to the CWiki, and for advice and information.

===Bureaucrat abilities ===


A '''bureaucrat''' can make other users into bureaucrats or administrators on their own wiki. However, they are not currently able to remove admin access from any user; please contact one of the [[w:Community Team|community team]] if you need that done.
A '''bureaucrat''' can make other users into bureaucrats, administrators, or rollbackers on their own wiki.  


Bureaucrats can also give users the ability to "rollback" edits not made in [[w:Assume good faith|good faith]].  
You are not initially a bureaucrat when you become an administrator.


== Staff and Janitors ==
==== How do I use administrator powers? ====


Some Wikia staff members have full access to all Wikia. They will be shown in [[Special:Listusers/staff]] on any wiki. [[Wikia:Janitor policy and guidelines|Wikia janitors]] have limited administrator access to all Wikia for cleanup purposes. These users will be shown on [[Special:Listusers/janitor]] on any Wikia. Please see the Central Wikia [[Wikia:Contact us|contact page]] for details on how to contact Wikia staff.
See the [[Help:Administrators' how-to guide|administrators' how-to guide]] for a guide on using admin functions.


== Who are this wiki's administrators? ==
==== What can administrators not do? ====


The "founder" of a wiki, the person who first requested it, 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]].
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 {{w|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 Chrono Wiki community.


You may also wish to list them on this page.
==Rollbackers==
Rollbackers are users who have been granted additional rights by [[Special:Listusers/bureaucrat|bureaucrats]]. While they are equal to other users in terms of editorial responsibility, they are especially trusted to keep articles safe from vandalism and bad-faith edits. These abilities are [[Help:Rollback|Rollback]], the ability to move a number of articles without being halted by spam restrictions, the ability to move files, and the ability to suppress redirects. The only they aren't able to do is to block users, delete duplicate article or vandalized articles. Simply add any one of the varies [[:Category:Maintenance templates|Maintenance templates]] and forward it up to the higher chain. Once trusted and proven yourself you will be asked to accept an additional promotion.

==Moderators==
 
Moderators are users who are equal to other users in terms of editorial responsibility, and a step below the Rollbackers. Moderators can be any one who report vandalism to Rollbackers, Sysop or Bureaucrats. This is usually the initial starting point to those who want to progress in ranks. You can also moderate [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] to the Chrono Wiki or even browsing [[Special:Random|random pages]] and editing those you see in need. So find what you want to moderate, insert your template to your page and begin! Eventually you may be promoted once you have proven yourself.

== Becoming an administrator ==
== Becoming an administrator ==
 
For you to become an administrator, someone with bureaucrat access must make you one. There are certain criteria that must be accomplish before you can be promoted in the ranks of an admin:
For you to become an administrator, someone with bureaucrat access must make you one. On larger Wikia, there will usually be a community page for requests, with a page name such as "[[{{ns:project}}:Requests for adminship]]". On a smaller wiki, you may simply ask on the community portal or [[Forum:Index|Forum]], or ask a bureaucrat directly on his or her talk page.
*You must submit a request in our project page: [[Chrono Wiki:Requests for adminship]]
 
*You must submitted consideration amount of worthy contribution
If there are no active bureaucrats and you wish to become an administrator or adopt the wiki, please contact the [[Wikia:Community Team|community staff on the Central Wikia.]]. 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.
**Some examples include: Adding new articles, fixing multiple Stub Articles, categorizing, creating worthy templates or many more examples
 
*Most important is that you {{w|Assume good faith|assume good faith}} throughout the wiki.
== What can administrators not do? ==
*In most cases, you will start out as a Moderator or a Rollback before you can progress further in ranks.

The request may take some time to reconsider, so be patience. You may also be require to submit a reminder in the current admin's talk page due to how they may not check very often. Chrono Wiki is always looking for help, but until then you can assume other roles below. I'm sure after a while in those lower roles you could join the ranks as a Admin.
