Inkipedia:Requests for Rights
OverviewThis is the Requests for Rights page, used for Requests for Patroller, Requests for Admin, and Requests for Bureaucrat. Make sure you mention which request you are filing for. Please read all relevant sections on this page before requesting rights. Requests stay active for four weeks, during which voting and discussion take place. Requests can be closed in two weeks if there is a complete consensus (meaning everyone votes the same way). After this time passes, a bureaucrat or administrator will act upon the request and archive it. If you have ever been blocked as a result of vandalism, your request will probably be rejected. Patroller Application OverviewPatrollers are trusted members of the community. In addition to having their edits auto-patrolled, patrollers help combat spam and vandalism. If you believe you have great editing skill and are knowledgeable on dealing with vandalism on Inkipedia, feel free to nominate yourself. Your request will be carried to an active administrator, who will have the final say. By becoming a patroller, it means that you will hold responsibilities helping administrators of the site combat vandalism and helping out new members. This extra privilege may mean you devote more time to Inkipedia, so be sure to think clearly about it first. Please ensure that your experience with Inkipedia is adequate. A user with 1,000 edits may be promoted but a user with only ten will not, as the user with 1,000 edits will have more experience. Experience with undoing vandalism is certainly a bonus. Administrators may promote users to patroller status without previous consultation. If you do not wish to have the responsibilities that come with being a patroller, contact the admin that promoted you, and they will remove your rights. To become a patroller, demonstrate that you can make constructive edits on a regular basis and an administrator may promote you. By becoming a patroller, you must be more active than you were before receiving the rights. Being a patroller is not a privilege; it is a responsibility that is vital in helping the wiki run smoothly. Administrator Application OverviewIf you wish to take an administrator role, and think you can help out on Inkipedia as an administrator, feel free to nominate yourself. Your request will be voted by other Inkipedia users. If accepted, the request will be carried to an active bureaucrat, who will have the final say. Note that, while being an administrator and wielding admin powers may seem useful and "cool", you should consider whether you will need to be an administrator at first. If you are very active on the wiki performing edits like correcting spelling, you will not need adminship, as such a task can be completed without admin powers. By becoming an administrator, it means that you will hold responsibilities in cooperating with other administrators of the site and helping out new members. This job will likely take up a lot of your time, so be sure to think clearly about it first. Adminship is based on your experience with wikis in general, not Splatoon prowess. Administrators do not necessarily need Splatoon. Ensure that your experience with Inkipedia is high enough. If your edit count is 32, then you're much less likely to become an administrator than someone with 1296 edits. That said, if you had 1296 edits, but actually 1295 edits are on your user page and talk page, then your request will probably be denied. Usually administrators will have patroller rights first. Bureaucrat Application OverviewBureaucrats can currently be promoted in a mutual agreement between current admins and bureaucrat(s). A bureaucrat cannot nominate themself: they must be nominated by another admin or bureaucrat. Generally bureaucrat rights are not required for any administrator. Keeping bureaucrat numbers down will help wiki stability as there are not daily changes to extensions or other users' rights. |
Requirements
The only prerequisites are a user account and a basic level of trust among other users, with emphasis on the latter.
