Certain users have access to different functions on Dragon City Wiki that allow them to perform tasks to improve and protect the wiki. These users are known as administrators.

Assignment
Bureaucrat
Bureaucrats are a step above administrators. They possess all rights in a wiki and are the only ones who can give admin status to other users. Bureaucrats are also able to change/edit the wiki's interface/layout. To become a bureaucrat, you need to have another bureaucrat assign you.
Adminstrator
Admins maintain and oversee everything on the wiki. Some actions they perform include going back and fixing malicious editing/vandalism, assigning Discussions moderators and aiding in keeping the wiki up-to-date. They also have the ability to lock a page to prevent users without admin/mod rights from renaming or editing a certain page, block IP addresses and/or users, delete pages, and perform a "roll-back" if needed. Admins can also use all of the Discussions moderation features. To become an admin, you need to have a bureaucrat assign you.

What shouldn't the Administration Team do?

Admins should never abuse user/abilities rights for their own gain. If abuse is noticed, it will result in immediate termination of users rights and a permanent ban from the wiki. Admin user rights should be only used to clean up vandalism, organize and clear spam from the wiki. Admins still follow the same rules and policies as everyone else.

The difference between a Bureaucrat and an Administrator

A bureaucrat is a user that can make other users bureaucrats or administrators on the wiki. Admins do not have this ability. However, they cannot remove the bureaucrat rights from another user. A Wikia Community Staff member must do this.

Becoming an Administrator

In order to become an administrator on Dragon City Wiki, a user must be a long-term, frequent, and competent contributor to the Dragon City Wiki meeting the following minimum criteria:

  • Be active for at least 6 months.
  • Have at least 1500 edits, a majority of which are in the main namespace, and are not blog or talk page comments. (see Special:Editcount, User contributions)
  • User must be an active member of the community.
  • Be familiar with editing Templates. You are not required to know how to create them but you should show an ability to use one in an article as this is a more advanced function.
  • If you are a member of the Discord server, you should also change your name to match your wiki username if they are different. This assists members with finding you for assistance.
    • Note that you can change your Discord username per server, so you can change it in the DCW server and leave it as you want for other servers/Discord in general.

Once you meet these criteria, you can request an active bureaucrat to become an Admin, however, some special cases can happen.
