Welcome to the Promotion Policies Page.

Important Note: Promotions may no longer be given out in competitions unless if it is considered a "Wikipossible" event or a "mega-event."

To become any staff member, you must be over 13 or over. If you live in the EU or in California, USA then you must be 16 or over.

If you meet any of these requirements (and want to become staff), make sure to make a detailed blog post about why you'd like to be this position."

  • To have a chance at becoming a Rollback, you MUST have 100+ edits and have a good understanding of how to create/edit pages and rollback bad edits. There can only be 3 rollbacks in staff.
  • To have a chance at becoming a Thread Moderator, you MUST have 200+ edits and have a good understanding of appropriate and inappropriate comments and how to use the moderator tools in the discussion threads and discussions area. There can only be 3 discussions moderators in staff.
  • To have a chance at becoming a Content Moderator, you MUST have 300+ edits and be able to have a knowledge of how to create/delete content, and what content is acceptable or inappropriate. There can only be 2 content moderators in staff.
  • To have a chance at becoming an Administrator, you MUST have 500+ edits and 1 month on the wiki. There can only be 3 administrators.
  • To have a chance at becoming a Tech Op, you MUST have 600+ edits, 2 months on the wiki, and have a good understanding of media, CSS, and JavaScript. It is recommended you apply while you are an administrator, but your chances increase if you are in a forum group that makes codes. There can only be 1 tech op in staff.
  • To have a chance at becoming a Bureaucrat, you must have 750+ edits, you MUST already have Community Administrator rights and prove that you can monitor a wiki. There can only be 2 bureaucrats in staff.


Bureaucrats (and possibly Admins) are the only people allowed to promote. Therefore, Non-Staff members and moderators cannot promote either.

A user may make an application by making a blog post, requesting any staff position and telling why they deserve that position. (The user requesting may be a normal user or a staff member trying for another rank.

If the application is deemed acceptable by the Bureaucrat(s) of the wiki, the said user submitting the application will be promoted.

Notes:

  • A staff member may propose a staff rank for another user, so long as the rank is not higher than both the proposer and the proposed.

Staff Ranks Scale

  1. Bureaucrat
  2. Administrator/Tech Op
  3. Content Moderator
  4. Discussions Moderator
  5. Rollback

By applying for user rights, you will be dubbed liable for rejecting reviews by anyone who objects to your application. Thus, we recommend you to remain calm and straight if you are rejected by comments that you might consider dejecting.

Good luck 🍀!

(Asking more than once a week will simply result in a 3 day ban.)

Tips

  • Badge/achievement points is not the best source of telling why you should be promoted, as new badges have been added overtime, giving new users an advantage, which will no longer be used.
