RealCTY:Administrators

This page is about RealCTY's administrators, ie the people who have sysop rights, which allow you to do anything on RealCTY, including deleting pages, banning users, and [insert CTY inside joke here]. Only bureaucrat level admins, however, can change the user rights of other people.

Admin Guidelines

This has been copied verbatim from the message formerly on the Main Page.

Based on the contributional history of some individuals in the RealCTY community, and the fact that most of the community will have to face the upcoming start of school (which directly affects my ability to be here every waking moment), I have decided to appoint three new admins: Users Jeff Sachs, JW, and Sammka have been given sysop rights. This basically means that the three of you may now delete pages and ban users.

I don't ask any of you to devote any exorbitant amount of time to the site. However, I do ask that, whenever you do have the time, check in on things to delete spam, relocated poorly placed pages, etc. Basically, follow these general guidelines:

• If redirect pages seem unnecessary (e.g., Egyptian rat Screw vs. Egyptian Rat Screw), delete the redirect page, and change the links on the site that lead to that page to the actual page.
• If a page is poorly named, move it to a new title, and then delete the old page, except in the cases where redirect pages would be useful (again, different spellings of ERS, etc.). Again, manually alter links on other pages.
• If pages are uncategorized, place them in all applicable categories; check a similar page for an example. Only articles about people (userpage or otherwise) should remain uncategorized.
• If stubs are created, either:
  • move them into the Lexicon; or
  • merge them with the proper page, or merge several stubs into a page series (e.g., "Places:" or games relevant to the Cult of Godzilla).
• Check the RealCTY:Policy page for general guidelines on banning users; please place the info on non-porn bannages on the RealCTY:Community Portal page.
• Reformat things that need reformatting (e.g., alphabetizing the Lexicon, fixing "br" tags when unnecessary or improperly used, etc.).

Otherwise, use your own judgment; it's been good so far.

If any of you would really rather not be an admin, please tell me. If anybody has any reasons why they think these people shouldn't be admins, please tell me. If anyone else would like to be an admin, please tell me. Of course, feel free to talk to me about nothing; that would make me equally (if not more) happy.

Requests for Adminship

If you're a really good, trusted contributor and you want sysop rights, you can leave your username, real name, and connection to CTY on Max's discussion page. If I did not mention your name on the page, please also leave your RealCTY resume. We're looking for new admins, so please apply!
