Help:User Rights: Difference between revisions

 

There are several user access levels on Metroid Wiki. User rights changes are decided by the current [[Metroid Wiki:Staff and Contact|staff]] of Metroid Wiki. This page explains what the staff looks for in members to gain these rights.

 

 

===Autoconfirmed Users===

Autoconfirmed Users are able to edit semi-protected pages and move pages. A newly registered user automatically becomes autoconfirmed after having made 20 edits '''and''' having been a member for at least 7 days. Once a user becomes Autoconfirmed, they will gain access to partially restricted areas of Metroid Wiki, such as featured content voting.

=== Bots ===

Bots are automated, or computer controlled, accounts that perform mundane little tasks from helping with redirects to welcoming new users to performing text replace functions. They are controlled only by staff members.

===Rollbackers===

Rollbackers Users are users that are reliable editors that rarely make mistakes in their edits, and are quick to fix the errors that they do make. Therefore their edits are automatically marked as patrolled in [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]]. They are also able to see which edits have been patrolled, and are given the ability to rollback multiple edits made by one user.

===Administrators===

'''[[Metroid Wiki:Staff and Contact|Administrators]]''' are highly trusted members of Metroid Wiki. These members have proven that they are dedicated to improving the wiki, making sure other edits are of quality, and have been upstanding role models for the rest of wiki. In addition to patrolling rights, administrators are given the rights to delete pages, ban users, and edit protected pages.

===Bureaucrats===

'''[[Metroid Wiki:Staff and Contact|Bureaucrats]]''' are the higher ranking admins, generally founders and owners of the site. They have all of the wiki-level rights that admins do, but also some more.
