Are you reading this because you want to become an admin? Well, make sure you read the Admin Qualities and How To Become an Admin thread as well!

As an admin, your job is to make sure that the Wiki is running smoothly and users are happy. This means that you'll be:
 * Policing the chat to make sure nobody's getting foul or making anybody uncomfortable
 * Fixing pages to conform with the Standard Layout (which means you must know both Wiki syntax and understand our Wiki's standard layout)
 * Making sure pages follow the Rules
 * Finding and fixing vandalism
 * Reading complaints and talking to other admins about deciding a proper course of action for said complaints. If the problem does not require banning/page deleting/etc. and you want to resolve the complaint yourself, you can.
 * Helping users out if you can

Really, an admin spends most of their time "cleaning up", which means fixing pages that have broken links, bad pictures, don't follow the rules, don't follow the standard layout, etc. If this doesn't sound like something you want to be doing, this probably isn't the job for you. If watching the chat sounds interesting however, you can ask to become a Chat Moderator. The process is the same as becoming an Admin, so just post a thread in the Adminship Board following the guidelines in Admin Qualities and How To Become an Admin.

More information may be added at a later date.
