Administrator Abilities

 * Delete pages, page histories, files etc.
 * Rename files.
 * Lock (protect) a page so it cannot be edited or renamed by users without admin rights.
 * Block an IP address or user name from editing.
 * Revert bad edits more easily using a "rollback" link.
 * Edit the MediaWiki namespace to make changes to the interface.

A bureaucrat can make other users into bureaucrats or administrators on their own wiki. However, he or she is not currently able to remove admin access from any user; please contact one of the community staff if you need that done.

Some Wikia staff members have full access to all Wikia. They will be shown in Special:Listusers/staff on any wiki. Wikia janitors have limited administrator access to all Wikia for cleanup purposes. These users will be shown on Special:Listusers/janitor on any Wikia. Please see the Central Wikia contact page for details on how to contact Wikia staff.

How do I use administrator powers?
See the Administrators' How-To Guide for a guide on using Admin functions.

What can't administrators do?
Administrators should not use their administrator powers 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. Administrator powers 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 an Admin shouldn't be considered "in charge". The ideal Admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wikia community.
