User blog:Master Hydraffe/Admin Applications 2019!

For a while, us admins realized that we are currently lacking in admins. There are officially 9 of them, but not all of them are active, and SatoTheDancer101 even left the wiki, so we decided to open admins applications after a long discussion!

Here are the criteria:

Candidates

 * 500+ mainspace edits
 * 6 months on the wiki
 * A kind (or at least not mean-spirited) person
 * Regularly active
 * Never has been blocked
 * 2 or fewer warnings (lenience will be shown for minor offenses such as spam or editing issues)
 * Great grammar
 * Must be active on Discord
 * Facebook activity is not as important, since we are currently encouraging the use of Discord.
 * In the unlikely event of a tie, the new admin will be picked based on the existing admins' discretion.

Nominator

 * 100 total edits
 * Semi-active
 * 1 month on the wiki.

in: Blog posts ADMIN APPLICATIONS 2017 v2 Master Hydraffe Master Hydraffe | ago 27, 2017	| User blog:Master Hydraffe MODIFICA COMMENTI (110) After having a discussion on Facebook, JD4, Sato and I decided that we would be holding a second round of Admin Applications. This time, we have shifted our focus. Due to the drama that had been going down in the Facebook chat, we decided that it would be great if we could have one more admin so as to help with decision-making there.

Here are the criteria:

Explanation
This round, the first stage is the same. Firstly, every user that chooses to can comment who'd they'd like for admin. You have 5 days to do this, but don't rush. The users you nominate must fit the criteria above.

Let's say I nominate Sandra for administrator rights (for example). That nomination is counted as 1 vote. These votes are transferred to your total tallies, and the 3 people with the most tallies will move on to Stage 2.

For Stage 2, you will start learning basic training of becoming an admin, and you will learn what it's like. This really isn't much of a stage, but it will be explained thoroughly through your actual training.

The 3 people with the most tallies will be tested as an admin. For a week, all of the people that are in Stage 2, will be promoted to an admin. However, this is just a test, as we will be seeing how well you can act during certain situations.

The admins may post irrelevant photos or videos. The test admins are responsible for deleting them. Sometimes, we may post a comment that has a word uncensored, or just flat out annoying. Inform the admin who has done this of the rule.

This activity may also carry into the Discord Chat for the test admins who do have Discord.

Have fun nominating! You have until January 24, 2019 at 12:00am EST to send in your nominations! Do not disappoint!

Speeches
If you want to run for the admin position. you should make a speech to let the community know that they are indeed looking for the position. This is so that the Wiki Members do not waste their nominations on people who would prefer to not be admins at this stage.

That's it! If you have any concerns that you would like to address, please leave them in the comments section. Thank you!
