Staff Policies

Information on the staff system on the wiki, including positions and expectations.

e.g.

Founder
The "founder" of a wiki, or the person who first requested its creation, is the administrator.

What can staff members not do?
Staff members should not use their powers to settle editing disputes; for example, to lock a page on a version they prefer in an editing dispute that isn't vandalism. Staff member abilities 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.

The ideal admin should not be considered "in charge." Rather, they are just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the wiki.

Applying for staff
Dedicated contributors to the wiki can apply to become a wiki staff member, given that there are open positions and certain prerequisites are met. If an application is successful, the applicant will be granted the abilities of a regular staff member while their performance in the position is assessed for one to two weeks.

Inactivity
A staff member who has been inactive for a long period of time will lose their rights in order to maintain a consistent number of active righted users. A message will be put on the user's message wall three days before demotion occurs.

Depending on the occupied position, the amount of time to demotion varies. If the user returns to the wiki after their demotion and remains active for two weeks, they may be considered for rights again.

As this wiki is owned by Atomic and Mileven1 all staff above Moderators and active will earn the Staff position!

While Atomic staff members will have to apply for a wiki staff position like a regular user. These "verified" staff members will be designated as such on their user page, and receive special tags when posting on a user's message wall, under an article's comments, and on the wiki's Forum.
