===Ambassador===
===Autopatrol===
A user who holds a high ranking position on another [[WiKirby:Affiliates|affiliated]] wiki or other site may hold this rank. As with diplomatic ambassadors between sovereign nations, Wiki Ambassadors represent their home wikis at WiKirby. These are trusted individuals. An ambassador can be assumed to be knowledgeable enough for any general wiki help, but not entirely familiar with WiKirby specific policy and practices. Ambassadors do not have any hard privileges above prior ranks.
{{ImCap|image=File:SKC Mini Bronze.png|align=right|size=100px|caption=Autopatrol users have this icon on their userpages.|captionalign = center|captionwidth=100px}}
 
Users in this category are trusted, and their edits do not need to be patrolled as a result. Additionally, users who have this rank and higher are allowed to vote on [[WiKirby:Proposals|proposals]], and move pages without a redirect. The qualifications for this rank are not high: all that's needed is a good editing spirit, and a user can obtain this within the first day of editing if they do particularly well.
Generally speaking, in order to qualify as an ambassador, a user must either be an administrator or higher in his/her home wiki, or otherwise have been nominated by his/her home wiki or other site to serve that role.

Administrators are the first rank of truly powerful editors of WiKirby. They are responsible for maintaining content on the wiki, including the main page, project pages, archives, and help pages. Administrators are also responsible for overseeing polls and [[WiKirby:Dispute policy|settling disputes]] between users when necessary. All members of higher ranks are also administrators. Administrators can be recogni{{z}}ed by their '''{{color|#D76EA6|pink}}''' user names.

Latest revision as of 23:38, 8 December 2023

The following page lists every user rank on WiKirby, and also lists members of that rank where appropriate. Ranks are ordered in ascending order (except for those listed under "Other").

Generally speaking, users of lower ranks should defer to those of higher ranks when called to do so. This is usually not necessary, however, and users of differing ranks are free to treat each-other as equals in most cases.

Non-staff ranks

The following ranks are not part of staff, and therefore, should not be approached to handle staff business:

Blocked

Blocked users of any rank are not allowed to edit articles, and (unless permanently blocked) may only edit their talk pages. Blocked users must either wait out their block time (if appropriate) or have their block removed by an Administrator+.

Anonymous

Anonymous users are those who have not yet made an account on the wiki. In place of a user name, these users will be marked using the IP address used to make the edit. From this rank upward, the abilities of each rank stack; that is, each higher rank has all abilities of the lower ranks. These users have the following privileges on the wiki:

  • editing pages.
  • editing talk pages.

Registered

Registered users who have either recently signed up to the wiki or have not made very many edits yet are referred to as unconfirmed. In addition to the above, these users have the following privileges on the wiki:

  • voting in polls.
  • having a talk page.
  • creating talk pages.

Autoconfirmed

Once an unconfirmed user has been registered for at least one (1) day and has made five (5) edits to any page, they will become autoconfirmed. In addition to the above, Autoconfirmed users have the following privileges:

  • creating new content pages.
  • uploading files.
  • moving pages and files.
  • creating a userpage.
    • uploading up to 5 personal items to their userpage (details on this page).
  • creating a custom user signature.
  • editing without moderation.

Autopatrol

Autopatrol users have this icon on their userpages.

Users in this category are trusted, and their edits do not need to be patrolled as a result. Additionally, users who have this rank and higher are allowed to vote on proposals, and move pages without a redirect. The qualifications for this rank are not high: all that's needed is a good editing spirit, and a user can obtain this within the first day of editing if they do particularly well.

Staff ranks

The following ranks should be approached to handle staff business, but priority should be given to Administrators+ when they are available:

Patroller

SKC Mini Silver.png
Patrollers have this icon on their userpages.

Patrollers are highly trusted users dedicated to making sure that every edit is of passable quality. As such, they receive special tools to assist them in checking each and every edit made to the wiki. Patrollers are recognizable by their magenta user names. In addition to above, Patrollers have the following powers:

  • mark others' edits as patrolled.
  • rollback all edits of a page by a single user to the last revision by the previous user.
  • mark articles as "Good" in accordance with WiKirby's featured content policy.

Administrator

SKC Mini Platinum.png
Administrators and above have this icon on their userpages.

Administrators are the first rank of truly powerful editors of WiKirby. They are responsible for maintaining content on the wiki, including the main page, project pages, archives, and help pages. Administrators are also responsible for overseeing polls and settling disputes between users when necessary. All members of higher ranks are also administrators. Administrators can be recognized by their cyan user names.

Abilities of an administrator

  • Protect/unprotect pages: They can lock a page from editing if it is the subject of controversy and edit wars, or if it repeatedly vandalized. User pages are generally not protected barring special conditions.
  • Delete/undelete pages: They have the ability to delete pages in accordance with the deletion policy. Pages are usually not deleted unless they have no relevance.
  • Block/unblock users: If a user is deemed to be a vandal or is repeatedly creating conflicts and problems, an administrator can block the user to prevent them from editing. Most blocks are temporary and depend on the length of the offense. For specific policy, see the block policy page.
  • Hide revisions of a page which are inappropriate: Sometimes, vandals insert swears into articles or create other problems that are inappropriate for viewing. Administrators have the ability to hide these revisions in the history of the page.
  • Automatically replace text: When a high-profile article, file, or template that many other pages link to is moved, this feature can be very useful in removing links to the old name.
  • Change user rights: Administrators have the ability to grant higher ranks to users up to Patroller. Promotions to Patroller should be verified by Bureaucrats.

Bureaucrat

Bureaucrats can be considered the heads of the wiki. They can be recognized by their pink user names. Although there is not much to distinguish them from administrators, they have the following additional powers and responsibilities:

  • the ability to rename and delete users from the wiki.
  • the power to review administrator actions if need be.
  • the power to assign any rank to a user, including Bureaucrat.

Among administrators+, one is appointed as the Editor-in-Chief, and another as the Assistant Editor-in-Chief via popular poll. The Editor-in-Chief can be considered the head of the entire wiki operation, and they are responsible for defining and enforcing wiki policy, and as such, other Bureaucrats must defer to them when regarding such matters. The Assistant Editor-in-Chief is the second in command, and has similar responsibilities to the Editor-in-Chief, and is expected to fill in when the Editor-in-Chief is not available, as well as help them as needed.
