User Rights

Rollback
Rollback, the easier and faster method of undoing edits, is granted automatically to all administrators and bureaucrats. It is also an ability that can be granted to users to make undoing vandalism and edits by problem users easier. On Naruto/Avatar Wiki, rollback users are generally trusted users who are experienced and are capable of helping the administrators with vandalism.

A list of autoconfirmed users with rollback powers can be seen here. It can be applied for on Project:Requests for Rollback.

Rollback users will have rights removed if they are inactive for three months. This is to ensure that community approval for those with user rights is maintained at all times.

Admins
Administrators are Naruto/Avatar Wiki editors who have been entrusted with access to restricted technical features ("tools") which help with maintenance. They are basically a small set of editors the wiki considers to be highly trustworthy, mature and responsible, able to lead by example.

Because administrators are expected to be experienced members of the community, those seeking help will often turn to an administrator for advice and information. When the communal feeling may be unclear, administrators may help provide a thoughtful voice in some kinds of consensus. However, administrators are not a smaller, "more powerful" subset of the community, and content and policy decisions are the responsibility of the entire community.

Becoming an Administrator
Rollback users who distinguish themselves over a period of time may be nominated for administratorship when a position is open. This occurs infrequently, as it is agreed upon that the wiki will not have more than four administrators at one time.

A user may not be an administrator and a fanon administrator at the same time. Becoming one means renouncing the other. This is to ensure balance on the wiki.

Abilities

 * Delete pages, page histories, files etc.
 * Rename files.
 * Lock (protect) a page so it cannot be edited or renamed by users without administrator rights.
 * Block an IP address or user name from editing.
 * Revert bad edits more easily using a "rollback" link.
 * Edit the MediaWiki namespace to make changes to the interface.

Duties
As part of administratorship, administrators are regularly expected to: However, administrators should not interfere in Fanon for Deletion or any other deletions associated with fanon, unless the Fanon administrators are directly breaching policy, or if the page is obvious spam or vandalism.
 * Delete pages that the community has decided are unwanted, including
 * Pages that are obvious spam/vandalism
 * Pages marked with a delete tag if appropriate
 * Pages that the community has decided are unneeded through Votes for Deletion.
 * Block users that meet the criteria on Naruto/Avatar Wiki:Blocking Policy

Code of Conduct
Administrators are reliable contributors who have been entrusted with the means to maintain the overall quality of the site. With this in mind:
 * Administrators have no right to authority over the content and policies of the wiki. The administrators' authority is as large as the community would like it to be.
 * Administrators do however have authority over behavioral problems such as vandalism or intimidation, hence the ability to block and delete.
 * Administrators do not own the site. They cannot shut out the opinions of others.
 * Abuse of administrator privileges may result in a removal of user rights after a forum discussion.

Inactivity
Administrators should stay active to be able to assist the wiki, who has entrusted them with additional user rights.
 * Administrators may always alert the community to a leave of absence by using Template:Inactive and changing their status to inactive. Leaves of absence may be for any length up to three months.
 * When an administrator is inactive for two weeks without explanation, they will be marked inactive on Template:Administrators.
 * If the administrator does not edit for three months without explanation, it will be assumed that they have left the wiki and the administrator will be demoted. If an administrator does not return from a leave of absence, they will be demoted three months after the leave of absence was supposed to finish

Bureaucrats
Bureaucrats are the highest tier of Naruto/Avatar Wiki users, with the additional ability of being able to change user rights. In all other respects, bureaucrats are simply administrators.

Becoming a Bureaucrat
Bureaucratship can only be granted by another bureaucrat. NarutoAvatar Wiki currently has two active bureaucrats. Others can be be made through a voting procedure at Requests for Bureaucratship. The candidate, usually an experienced and trusted administrator, must be nominated by another user.

Being a Bureaucrat
Every policy that applies to administrators also applies to bureaucrats, as bureaucrats are simply a subset of administrator, with only a few additional abilities and responsibilities.

Additional Abilities
In addition to being an administrator, bureaucrats also have:
 * The ability to grant and revoke rollback rights.
 * The ability to grant and revoke administrator status.
 * The ability to grant, but not revoke bureaucrat status.

Additional Duties
Bureaucrats oversee and supervise all requests for user rights, and carry out the community's decision (defined as a two-thirds super-majority at least) in the case of requests for administratorship or requests for bureaucratship.

Bureaucrats also must at their discretion accept or decline user requests for rollback. This is done according to their judgment, though the wider community can also have input into this decision by asking the requesting user questions about whether they need and deserve rollback.

Inactivity
Bureaucrats should stay active to be able to promote users to the groups that they require to assist the wiki in the best possible way. As they are administrators, they are subject to the same inactivity regulations as administrators.
