Community Central:Admins

If you can answer yes to the following questions, please ask to be an administrator in the requests and nominations for adminship section below.


 * 1) You would like to help keep the Central Wikia free from vandalism and other bad edits,
 * 2) you are an admin on at least one other Wikia,
 * 3) you understand how to use admin powers (see user access levels and the administrators' how-to guide), and
 * 4) you feel you're trusted by the Wikia community.

Users who feel that someone else fits most of the above criteria may nominate that person in the same section below.

For a list of current administrators, please see Special:Listadmins (Staff also have admin rights on all wikis). Users who are no longer active will have their adminship removed (this can be re-applied for at any time). If you feel an admin is no longer suitable, please raise that issue in the Requests and nominations for de-adminship section below.

Admins of the Central Wikia can be contacted via the off-site status page when Wikia is down since they have contact details of various people who might be able to fix the site.

Requests and nominations for adminship

 * If you nominate someone else for adminship, please let them know that they should leave a message here stating whether or not they accept the nomination. Users will be made admins after one week if there are no objections.

I would like to become an administrator to help with the Wikia community by reverting vandalism and improving the system messages. I will also delete pages which I feel should be deleted and protecting pages which have been vandalised a lot. I am currently an administrator on three Wikia wikis and can often be found coding JavaScript and CSS. I feel that the wiki could benefit from a little bit of improvement and I would like to make those changes. I will use my powers only when necessary but also be bold when using them. -- 23:25, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Leon would also make a great administrator! --Phillip (talk) 23:26, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Full support and more! Leon, the coding guru, would certainly be a great admin. Leon's often here, so he could easily spot vandalism. :) --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 23:29, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) Support here too. G .He (Talk!) 04:40, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Sorry, I don't like the idea of collectively requesting for adminiship, then supporting each other, as you've done with JackPhoenix, I don't like your user page adverts. Both reminds me Wikipedia's dark side of having community that thinks that adminship (and requesting it) is a great fun or getting god's position around the project. Especially on Central Wikia - it's not. I always find Central as a really essential wiki, but I realized that two days ago when I saw these requests, much diffrent from what I seen here earlier.

 * I understand your concern about these 'adverts'. When I placed them on my user page, I couldn't think of any reason not to.  However, you have given a reason, and I thank you for that.  I have now removed both notices from my user pages and will leave it to other users to remove notices from theirs.  I hope you understand what I'm trying to say and that you will assume good faith.  Feel free to ask me any questions about this (until Thursday when I will be away for a fortnight).  -- 21:16, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Comments and questions
What pages do you think need protecting? Have you read the policy about protection? Angela talk 01:24, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I would protect pages that are heavily vandalised pages. I would usually semi-protect pages if it is usually users who haven't logged in that vandalise the pages.  If the pages are being moved by page move vandals, I'd set it to stop people from moving the page.  I try not to protect pages but I will if the page is being abused.  Of course, there are some other reasons to protect a page which are given at Protection.  -- 19:10, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Can you give any examples please? I'm concerned that you want to be an admin just so you can lock the wiki down, which is not the right way to approach vandalism. The advantage of adding more admins is that you don't need to protect pages since there are plenty of people around to revert any vandalism. Angela talk 02:27, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
