Purposes
Edit
The main job of all Wikizilla staff is to help users, so don't hesitate to ask a member of staff if you have any problems or questions.
What Wikizilla Staff should not doEdit
Wikizilla staff should not use their tools to settle editing disputes; for example, to lock a page on a version he or she prefers in an editing dispute that isn't vandalism, or use their blocking tool to block a user they have a dispute with. Their tools should be used to help keep the wiki clear of vandalism, spam, and users who make malicious edits, but not for simple disagreements between users acting in good faith. Ideally the Bureaucrats shouldn't be considered "in charge". The ideal Wikizilla staff member is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wikizilla community.
BureaucratsEdit
Troycool is the Bureaucrat of Wikizilla and the Main Administrator as well. He has been on Wikizilla since the beginning.
DescriptionEdit
The Bureaucrats are senior editors on Wikizilla. As well as being full administrators, they can also grant or revoke rollback rights for users, or they can turn other users into administrators or bureaucrats. They can revoke the administrator tools, but not the bureaucrat tools.

PromotionEdit
Promotion on Wikizilla is determined by the Bureaucrats, or via a community vote. If you wish to become a member of staff, then you can request on our Community portal and state which position you want and then explain how you can help. The Bureaucrats will either discuss this amongst themselves or ask the community to vote. Please bare in mind that if you have been blocked on Wikizilla in the past, then your request will be rejected.
