GnomeTown Wiki:Administrators

These are the administrators of the wiki. This page also compiles a list of other user rights, such as rollbacks.

Administrator abilities
These additional functions include:
 * 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 or autoconfirmed status.
 * Blocking IP addresses or user names from editing; and very quick "rollback" of undesirable edits.
 * Editing the interface by changing system messages and skins.

How do I use administrator powers?
See Help:Administrators' how-to guide for a guide on using admin functions.

Becoming an administrator
If you would like to have administrator rights, please request one through the Request User Rights page. Meet the requirements, and the administrators/bureaucrats will look into it. If there are no active bureaucrat, adoption of the wiki may need to be taken.

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 isn't 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 admin shouldn't be considered "in charge". The ideal admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wikia community.

Rollback
Rollback is an easy way to undo an edit. Rollback is done in one click by pressing the [Rollback] button. However, rollback only works for the last edit made and if the page has two or more editors. Rollback will revert all edits made by the same user to the last user who edited before them. Example: All edits made by Bermuda after GnomeTown User's edit will be reverted to GnomeTown User's edit. However, the edit from Bermuda before GnomeTown User will not be reverted.
