Minecraft Wiki:Requests for Adminship
Talk1this wiki
You NEED rollback before you can apply here.
We WILL only accept B'crat requests in exceptional circumstances and with a 100% vote from existing admins and bcs.
This is a page where users can request administrator and bureaucrat rights. Please read the following regulations and instructions completely before placing a request.
For now, people can self-nominate themselves or nominate other users (though the candidate must accept the nomination), and an administrator will decide whether or not the candidate is ideal. If yes, a bureaucrat will hand the flags if the decision was made by a sysop. Eventually when the community expands significantly, community discussions will be used. Until that point, this system is in use.
Bureaucrat flags can be requested by users that are already administrators. However, these requests are only accepted by other bureaucrats, since only they have enough experience as being one.
Please note that administrators can be made at any time, while bureaucrats are only made if another one is good to have or needed. Keep in mind that bureaucrat flags are no different from admin tools, other than more access to user rights management, which is not used very often.
Admin flags can be requested to be removed, or are removed by a bureaucrat immediately, if an administrator either...
- ...abuses his/her powers
- ...has been inactive for a long period of time (2+ weeks)
- ...has not shown any use for the tools
- ...has shown behavior unacceptable for an administrator.
If the admin is a bureaucrat, Wikia Staff can be askedtoremovethem.

Rules and Regulations
While the wiki gets more page views, and thus more edits, more administrators will come in handy to keep maintenance in all hours. You can request adminship below, but it's important to keep in mind a few things:
For adminship requests:
- You must be experienced with this particular wiki, and preferably other wikis.
- Your contributions must be of good quality.
- You must provide a reasoning why you would be a good admin and need the tools.
For bureaucratship requests:
- You must have experience as an administrator already.
- You should be trusted enough, as bureaucrat tools can be very dangerous in wrong hands.
Requests
Please place the requests under this line.

Legonman [Denied]
Hello, I am MrLegoman. I believe a great administrator needs to be someone who has helped on this wiki, follows the rules, and does what the other admins say. I think I will be a good admin because I am ranked 11th and have the time to contribute at least every other day. I am also familiar with Wikia and have and interest in playing Minecraft and posting anything new and helping out the community. Thank you very much for your time.

Suggested Request [Accepted]
This is not a request for me, but a suggestion for another individual.
What do I have to say? Should Sharple become admin anon? For what I have to say is a very serious acknowledgement. Shall this Sharple become an admin? For whatever reason, he is not. I'm just guessing he does not wish to be. And yet, I crave him to be. --HMarrowIV {Talk} 02:26, May 30, 2012 (UTC)
- Accepted. -

User:Sharple Bureaucrat Application [Approved]
Hello, most of you guys have known me since the beginning of this year. Since then I have cleaned the wiki's Special:Uncategorizedpages, undid vandalism and now I'm here to request for bur rights since I've been an very active user here also, I revamp our Policy, cleaned and expanded articles such as Anvil. I added article comment colors (have to admit tho that Pathos helped contributed), new backgrounds and much more, please consider this request.
Good day & Happy editing! Sharple Talk/Contributes 02:36, November 11, 2012 (UTC)
CandD [On Hold]
This is not a request for me, but a nomination for another user.
This user is a respectful editor, made 521 constructive edits and was here since August 30, 2012. MM777 (talk) 19:19, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
- CandD needs to become a rollback before you apply him for adminship, please reread this page Sharple Talk/Contributes 19:41, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
The Pathogen For Administrator [On Hold] and Bureaucrat Rights [Denied]
This is not a request for me, but a nomination for another user.
This user is respectful with his rollback rights. He also has 474 edits and was here since January 5, 2012. MM777 (talk) 00:20, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
- Hi MM777, I really do see Pathogen as a great editor and a great coder but I would like to hear from him why he should be given administrator rights, as for the bureaucrat that's a little to soon. Sharple Talk/Contributes 03:30, January 26, 2013 (UTC)
- Hey there Sharple, just noticed that the nomination had been updated! So I thought it'd be a good time to give you the reasons you asked for. ^ᴗ^ I'd like to quickly cover the bureaucrat nomination first, as even I think that it's far too soon for that kind of position to be bestowed. Now, as per the administrator request, here is what I can think of at this time:
- I have a considerable amount of experience with:
- Vandalism-cleaning and prevention
- Community management
- Using the admin tools and admin pages
- Working with sensitive wikitext with a much lower risk of bad consequences (And in the event of said bad consequences, the knowledge to fix them).
- I am a long-standing administrator (and newly-appointed bureaucrat) over on the Terraria Wiki.
- I have a lot of experience dealing with templates and fixing template compatibility, as well as making the code more efficient.
- I feel that I could contribute to the Minecraft Wiki community on a greater level with those powers. (Straight off the bat, I can think of a template that is in need of an admin to edit it, and that could use the implementation of a {{clr}} template in it - the Blocks template.)
- I have a considerable amount of experience with:
- Those are the relevant reasons I can think of at this time, if you're in need of anything more, please don't hesitate to tell me so. :) I eagerly await your reply.
