Administrative Sequence Executives → Editor-in-Chief → Editorial Board → Adminstrators
The administrators are users on the wiki who have been given additional powers because of the contribuitions they have made to the wiki. The admins can get further promotions and go onto the Editorial Board. All admins are chosen by the Editorial Board. Administrators need to sensibly represent the site and answer users questions. They should not abuse their powers and should be the first stop for all questions about the wiki. Project Leaders may be in line for adminship when they take up leader status or leave the post.
Animal Crossing Wiki Administrators
An up-to-date list of the entire wiki staff can always be found on this page.
How to Become an Administrator
Administrators are chosen by current administrators based on proven site activity and superior editing abilities. Other than this, the only other requirement is that the user has an account on the forums with the same username. If selected to become an administrator, the user will receive a PM via the forums. If the invitation is accepted, the user will be added to the staff on both the wiki and forum. Administrators have access to a special forum that is not visible to normal members.
Different users have access to different functions of the site. While anyone can do most things on the site, including reading and editing, administrators can access a few additional functions.
Administrator abilities
These additional functions are:
- Deleting and undeleting pages, page histories, and uploaded files.
- Locking (protecting) a page so it cannot be edited or renamed by users without admin rights.
- Blocking IP addresses or user names from editing; and very quick "rollback" of undesirable edits.
- Editing the interface by changing system messages and skins.
A bureaucrat can make other users into bureaucrats or administrators on their own wiki. However, he or she is not currently able to remove admin access from any user; please contact one of the community staff if you need that done.
Some Wikia staff members have full access to all Wikia. They will be shown in Special:Listusers/staff on any wiki. Helpers have limited administrator access to all Wikia for cleanup purposes. These users will be shown on Special:Listusers/helper on any Wikia. Please see the Central Wikia contact page for details on how to contact Wikia staff.
How do I use administrator powers?
See the administrators' how-to guide for a guide on using admin functions.
Becoming an administrator
If you would like to become an administrator, please do so here.
How do admins grant rollback or admin rights?
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 he or she prefers in an editing dispute that is not 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 good faith. Ideally an administrator should not be considered "in charge". The ideal admin is simply someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the wiki. Remember, being an administrator is no big deal.
Staff
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.
Animal Crossing City will at no point have more than four bureaucrats. If at any point a bureaucrat goes inactive, any active administrators at this time may request to fill the vacant bureaucrat seat.
