Community Central is kind of an exception to the rule. On most wikis, you can become an administrator by being promoted by an existing administrator-bureaucrat of the wiki. Or, if the wiki doesn't have any active bureaucrats, you can possibly adopt it, see Help:Adoption. Or, again, if you found the wiki, you're automatically an administrator and bureaucrat.

Community Central admins are pretty few and far between. We're hand-picked by Staff out of a pool of selections by existing admins and chat mods of this wiki. The best candidates will be veteran, experienced users who spend a lot of time helping users on the forum or the chat.
