Screamer Wiki:Guides/User Rights: Difference between revisions

Line 2:

This guide explains everything about user rights on the Screamer Wiki.

=== '''~~How do I get more user rights~~?''' ===

=== '''What are admins?''' ===

Admins are trusted users that work to keep Screamer Wiki up to quality. Administrators have access to almost all tools on the wiki.

=== '''What are helpers?''' ===

Helpers are trusted users that are a halfway between admins and normal users. Helpers have access to tools to help moderate the wiki; these tools include rolling back edits, deleting and undeleting pages, and deleting comments. Helpers are supposed to enforce the rules as written. Power-tripping is grounds for immediate expulsion from the Screamer Wiki staff team.

~~The minimum requirements for becoming an administrator are~~

Anyone that was given rights (such as AllPageAccess).

=== '''How do I become helper?''' ===

Originally, powerusers would get rights automatically depending on how much they edited. As the wiki continues to grow and to help prevent bad actors from getting rights, you must now apply to become a helper. You can do that by contacting [[User:Lawiki1534|Lawiki1534]].

To become a helper you must

*Treat others with gracious professionalism.

*Be able to read and write at a native level.

*Be able to read and write in English at a native level.

*Be at least 13 years old.

*Have an account that is at least 30 days old.

~~(Users made admin before these requirements are grandfathered)~~

*Have an account on Screamer Forums and/or Discord.

*Be in contact with other helpers/admins while moderating.

*Be in good standing with the Screamer Wiki community.

To retain your user rights, you must be active on the wiki - don't forget to contribute every now and then!

=== '''~~What~~ are ~~they~~ supposed to do?''' ===

=== '''How are moderators supposed to enforce the rules?''' ===

~~Administrators on the wiki are supposed to help users~~ and ~~enforce the [[Screamer Wiki:Rules|rules]] by giving punishments to users breaking them~~. ~~Admins are the ones who manage and maintain the wiki. They also have the ability to block other users~~. ~~''If you abuse your rights, these rights will be revoked and/or you will be banned from the Screamer Wiki~~.''

As an helper you are supposed to enforce the rules as written by giving punishments to users breaking them. You can see the [[Screamer Wiki:Rules|rules here]]. Here is how you should handle rule violators.

~~=== '''How are they supposed to enforce the rules?''' ===~~

As an ~~admin~~ you are supposed to enforce the rules by giving punishments to users breaking them. You can see the [[Screamer Wiki:Rules|rules here]]. Here is how you should handle rule violators.

# '''Never use any scary images or ''clickable links'' that lead directly to the screamer website. You are allowed to use ''un-clickable links'', or links that can't be clicked on.'''

#* Remove the violating content and give the user a warning. If the user repeats this more than once they will get a 1-day ban. If it is repeated again after this, the punishment will be doubled.

# '''Please use either the forum, discussions, the chat, or your user blog to communicate with other users. Do not create pages that are out of subject, ''or you will get a warning.'''''

#* Remove the violating content and give the user a warning. If the user repeats this more than once they will get a 1-week ban. If it is repeated again after this, the violator will be permanently blocked. If the user creates another account to come back, please contact an admin.

~~# '''Use correct grammar & spelling, write in English. ''If this rule is violated, your account won't get blocked.'''''~~

#* If the grammar is incorrect, fix it.

#* This wiki is available in multiple [[Screamer Wiki:Languages|languages]]. However, if you see someone writing in a language other than English on this wiki, link them to the correct wiki.
