Administrators

Administrators (or "admins" or "sysop") are trusted users, who are generally chosen by the community and also have access to the following tools:


 * they have all privileges from the chat moderator and rollback groups and also have the ability to:


 * delete and undelete pages, as well as delete images or files (it is not possible to undelete images or files).


 * lock (protect) a page so it cannot be edited or renamed by users without adminship privileges.


 * block users who are vandalising the wiki from editing.


 * grant and revoke chat moderator rights.


 * edit the wiki's skin and format.


 * edit MediaWiki pages.

For more details, see the Help:Administrators' how-to guide.

The state of being an administrator is also referred to as "adminship". Being an administrator makes "ADMIN" appear next to a user's name on their userpage.
