Admin
hi this is summer how do u be a admin thing Summer hat 23:43, January 7, 2012 (UTC)summer


 * On Community Central, admins are chosen at the discretion of staff and there's no formal nomination or request process. There are still many ways you can help out though. :) The 888th Avatar   (talk)  23:48, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

My apologises but I may need your help
I'm trying to make my user table collapsible or smaller, Any help please???--
 * Thank you!!--
 * Bah, sorry to disturb you but it not collapsing on my other user pages such as the TARDIS Index File (I'm a little worried in case it takes up too much space!!!).--


 * I've just checked your user page on Tardis and it's collapsing there. If you clear your browser cache it should collapse for you as well. The 888th Avatar   (talk)  02:55, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Mods
I have a question. I am a contributer to dragonvale wiki. I wanted to ask why wiki doesn't have a moderating system? I believe it would be pretty useful to have a mod system on the wiki and a couple of others agree.

 * Hi. :) I'm not sure what you mean by a moderating system. Do you mean on a wiki's chat or are you referring to user rights? Elaboration would be helpful! The 888th Avatar   (talk)  02:55, January 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Edit; I was refering to user rights, like a mod would have only some of the admins powers such as the ability to ban, edit others comments, and whatever else is needed to act sorta like a police of the wiki.


 * Btw, I am a chat mod for dragonvale wiki and it is somewhat useless to be a chat mod. The only thing it does is kickban people as far as I know. Also can you please respond on my talkpage so it notices me that I have a message.

 * MediaWiki wikis by default don't have groups other than the standard ones (bureaucrat, administrator, rollback etc.), but it is possible to configure new groups and assign specific rights to those groups. For example, on Avatar Wiki, we have fanon administrators who have some, but not all administrator abilities. If there is widespread agreement in your community that there is a need for a custom user rights group, such as a "mod", you can request one through Special:Contact. However, whether one is actually created is up to the discretion of staff, based on their judgement of whether a wiki actually needs a custom user rights group (usually, wikis don't actually need one).

 * So it is pretty much up to the Wiki staff? I will get to work on this, ASAP. Thanks for the help :D

 * Yes. Any time. :) The 888th Avatar   (talk)  03:33, January 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well myself and a couple of other friends have made a forum about it, check it out:Moderators
 * Kululu12 04:22, January 9, 2012 (UTC)kululu12


 * Nice, I hope your community can come to an agreement on the proposal. The 888th Avatar   (talk)  04:35, January 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well so far it is all support so it is going well, for now. Did you check it out? What still kinda sucks is that it is all up to the Staff. Btw, I have seen all the avatar episodes and even the movie, lol.
 * Kululu12 05:06, January 9, 2012 (UTC)kululu12

Yes, I did check it out. Hope you enjoyed the movie. ;) The 888th Avatar   (talk)  05:11, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Inquiry
Not really sure who to ask about this, staff or admin, whatever ):

We have a uh... problem user on our wiki. Generally rude, impedes progress, utterly unpleasant, acts superior to everyone else, etc. We never did anything to her though because she never did nor said anything that warranted a ban, as much as I, and over time, others disliked her. She fought with me constantly, and even when I gave her alternative choices for things, she would blatantly refuse them, because they were not what SHE wanted. Finally after trying to take credit for a few recent happenings and being shown that she was in fact not responsible for them, she lashed out in return, saying she "had enough of this bullshit," and had her account disabled. Now, just a mere two days later, she is back with a new account, similar name.

I don't want to ban her just because I dislike her, because obviously this would not be a good use of my powers. Considering all of the drama she has put us through the last week, would I be just in banning her to prevent the same issues from popping up again? I mean, she comes back after two days after essentially ragequitting, and a person does not change in only two days, so I have no doubts she will cause trouble in the future again.
