This is the page for users to be nominated for Nookipedia's volunteer staff roles. We are always looking for active and experienced editors to become a part of our staff team, who are granted additional tools to aid in the maintenance of the wiki. If you wish to nominate yourself or another editor for a staff role, please read and follow the information detailed on this page. All users are welcome to participate in nominations and provide their input, but only staff members may cast votes.
Remember, becoming a staff member isn't a big deal—no user is higher than another, and being a member of staff simply means that you have are entrusted with extra tools to help out with.
Past nominations are archived at Nookipedia:Staff/Apply/Archives.
Nomination process
Nominations and promotions for Patroller, Administrator, and Bureaucrat are all determined through the process outlined on this page. The Director and Interface administrator roles do not come under this process, and are instead assigned at the discretion of the site's operation team. Other user levels are not considered staff roles, and can be assigned to users at a staff member's discretion:
- Trustee can be assigned to a user by an Administrator, Bureaucrat, or Director.
- Cargo Technician can be assigned to a user by a Bureaucrat or Director.
- Bots are not staff but do require staff approval to run. Requests to operate bot accounts should be made here.
Expectations
Users may nominate themselves or another user as a candidate for a staff role. All nominations must meet the requirements detailed in the below section. Please note that these are the minimum requirements for nomination, and the candidate will be assessed on their experience and suitability for the role they are applying for. Candidates without sufficient experience are unlikely to be successful, and nominations that do not meet the requirements will be considered invalid and immediately closed as unsuccessful.
For a successful nomination, it is recommended that the candidate demonstrates knowledge of Nookipedia editing standards and policies, an ability to communicate with and assist users in a courteous manner, and be reasonably experienced and active as an editor.
Users of all levels must abide by the community interaction standards as outlined in the general policy. If a candidate does not behave appropriately or in good faith, Directors have the right to veto and end the nomination process.
Procedure
Nominations can be submitted by following the instructions outlined further below. Nominations that do not meet the requirements are invalid and will immediately be closed as unsuccessful, so please carefully review and ensure the nomination fulfills them before proceeding.
Valid and open nominations will be considered by the staff team, who may offer comments and will cast a vote to Support or Oppose the nomination. Staff are permitted to change their vote before the nomination is closed. Non-staff users cannot cast votes, but are allowed to participate in the Comments section of the nomination. All users are encouraged to offer constructive feedback, even if they do not support the nomination.
Users should not attempt to influence the outcome of an open nomination; all discussion should be kept to this page only, users should not directly approach staff members regarding a nomination or attempt to solicit votes from them. If you have a need to discuss an open nomination with a staff member in confidence, please email a Director.
Timeline
Users have 7 days from the date of submission to participate in a nomination. After this point, a Director or Bureaucrat will determine the consensus of the vote. In order for an nomination to be successful, there must be at least 65% support. A nomination must receive a minimum total of five votes before a consensus can be determined; if less than five votes have been cast, the nomination process will be extended for another 7 days.
Outcome
If you are a candidate and your nomination is successful, you will be contacted by a member of staff regarding the next steps. You will also need to ensure your account meets the security requirements needed for your role before the user level change can take place. Participation on the staff channels on our Discord server is encouraged, but not required. If you are a user on the server, your role will be updated accordingly.
If you are a candidate and your nomination fails, please don't be discouraged! Staff will offer constructive advice, so take it into mind, and re-apply (after at least 60 days) when you think you're ready again.
Requirements
All nominations
To be nominated for staff, the candidate must meet the below requirements:
- their account must be at least 2 months old.
- they must have made at least 200 edits in the article mainspace. Edits in other namespaces do not count.
- they must be over the age of 13, to ensure compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Candidates cannot be nominated for staff if:
- they have had an unsuccessful nomination in the past 60 days.
- they have been successfully promoted in the past 60 days.
- they have been expelled from a staff role within the past 6 months.
Users can only be nominated for the level above their current user level; Autoconfirmed users are eligible for Patroller, Patrollers are eligible for Administrator, and Administrators are eligible for Bureaucrat.
Former Administrators or Bureaucrats who resigned from their position, or were demoted due to inactivity or security non-compliance, may directly reapply for their previous position. Users who were expelled from a staff role may only apply for the Patroller position, and only after 6 months from the date of expulsion. A nomination to return to a staff role is subject to the discretion of Bureaucrats and Directors, and is not guaranteed.
Nomination of other users
Any user may nominate another user, with their permission, for a staff role provided they observe the following guidelines:
- The candidate has agreed to be nominated by another user. Best practice is to seek their permission on their user talk page.
- Non-staff users may only nominate users who meet the minimum requirements detailed above.
- Staff may nominate any user for a staff position at their discretion, regardless of account age, edit count, and recent nomination history. All other requirements must be met.
Other than the initial submission itself, nominated candidates go through the same process as self-nominated candidates.
Security compliance
While not required for a nomination, the below security requirements must be met for a successful outcome to proceed:
- A valid email address must be added to an account before a user can be promoted to any staff user level.
- Two-factor authentication must be enabled before an Administrator can be promoted to Bureaucrat.
If the requirements are not met within 30 days of a successful nomination, the outcome will be considered unsuccessful, and the promotion will not proceed. Per the staff demotion policy, staff who no longer meet the security requirements for any reason will have 30 days to rectify the issue before being demoted.
Additionally, it is the responsibility of all staff members to secure their account and ensure it is not compromised by unauthorised individuals. Accounts should be protected with a strong password that cannot be easily guessed or brute-forced. In the event that a staff account is compromised, immediate actions will be taken to protect the site and its users. All users are strongly encouraged to enable two-factor authentication for their account.
