Minecraft Wiki:Administration

(Redirected from Minecraft Wiki:Directors)
For a list of all user rights on the wiki, see Minecraft Wiki:User rights.

The Minecraft Wiki administration is made up of administrators (including bureaucrats), directors, the Board and Weird Gloop staff.

Administrators

Administrators are trusted users who are given extra tools and permissions, like deleting pages, blocking users, protecting pages, and editing fully protected pages as well as the user interface. Issues that require admin attention can be reported on the admin noticeboard.

Bureaucrats are administrators who are also able to grant user rights to other users.

Administrative rights are generally given to users who are nominated and approved by the community.

Directors

The directors are administrators from all of the language wikis. All English wiki administrators are also directors.

Directors can edit pages on the English wiki that are protected with the "directors" level.

Global administrative groups

Some global user groups are effective across all language versions of the Minecraft Wiki, including the English wiki. Members of these groups are trusted community members specializing in specific tasks to assist local admins.

Currently, two global administrative groups are set up, including:

  • CATS members remove spam and vandalism across all language wikis. They are granted rights to block users and delete pages, among others.
  • Global interface maintainers improve and implement fixes to the user interface, especially on the wiki's CSS and JavaScript. They gain the rights to edit these pages as well as all protected pages.

Board

The board supervises the wiki's operations and communicates with Weird Gloop, the wiki's host. It does not carry any additional rights and is not involved in day-to-day editing activity, though individual members may be in other administrative roles. Board members are appointed through elections on the Meta Wiki. See the board page on the Meta Wiki for more information including upcoming meeting information and past meeting minutes.

Wiki representatives

Wiki representatives are not proper members of the board, but are selected by the community of their respective language wiki. Their task is to represent their respective wiki and facilitate communication with the board as a spokesperson for their community.
