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]], mark files (not articles) as Good in accordance with the [[WiKirby:Featured content policy|featured content policy]], 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.

*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 [[WiKirby:Block policy|block policy page]].

===Bureaucrat===
Bureaucrats can be considered the heads of the wiki. They can be recognized by their '''{{color|#CA408A|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 [[WiKirby:Editor-in-Chief|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.
