This Wiki's staff consists of five groups: Bureaucrats, Administrators, Content Moderators, Thread Moderators, and Rollbacks.
- Bureaucrats have the same jobs and abilities as an administrator, along with the ability to promote users to staff groups.
- Administrators have the abilities of content moderators and Thread moderators, while also having additional rights of being able to block or ban users and edit the wiki interface.
- Content Moderators are users who can delete/revive pages and edit locked pages, as well as having the rights of rollbackers and some rights of discussions moderators.
- Thread Moderators are users who have the ability to delete or lock discussion Threads, comments, and message wall posts.
- Rollbacks are users who are given the rollback right which allows them to revert edits by a user.

Staff information
To become a staff member or to have a staff role, a user must contact any Bureaucrat on their message wall. When contacting them a user might be able to be accepted, however the user is much more likely to become staff, when staff applications are sent out to Bureaucrats or Admins. The user must be above 13 years of age to be a Staff member, shouldn't act immature, shouldn't be aggressive towards any users and if allegations arise which have a Staff member involved in them, then they will be dealt with privately.
Bureaucrats and Admins can go to the Admin Dashboard to customize the Wiki. They can go to Theme Designer to Change Different aspects of Theming and Colouring of the Wiki. They can also go to the Import JS Page to Import Javascripts from Fandom Dev Wiki. They can go to the Statistics Page, where they'll see all the Page, Edit and User Statistics of this Wiki. They can go to the Special Pages page to see all the Special Pages on this Wiki.
Amount of staff
The required amount of staff varies for each user groups, and can occasionally change. Here is how many users can be staff at a time for each user groups:
- Bureaucrats = 1-2
- Administrators = 6-8
- Content Bureaucrats = 1
- Content Administrators = 1
- Content Moderators = 6-8
- Thread Bureaucrats = 1
- Thread Administrators = 1
- Thread Moderators = 6-8
- Rollbacks = 6-8
Bureaucrats roles
Bureaucrat rights are the highest rights you can get on any Wiki. Bureaucrats have all the user rights of an administrator with the addition of being able to access the User rights Management of a User's Profile, which can be used to promote users to rollbacks, Thread moderators, content moderators, administrators, and bureaucrats. Since bureaucrat rights are the highest ranking rights, the amount of people that can become a Bureaucrat are very limited, but in order to become one, you must be the best, most active, and responsible administrator, who has also been an exceptional editor on this Wiki.
Bureaucrat vacancy process, When a vacancy occurs for the bureaucrat position, either by a bureaucrat resigning or being removed, there will be a vote process to determine the new bureaucrat.
This process begins after the leaving bureaucrat expresses that they will be retiring ahead of time, so that a predecessor could be chosen before they do retire, or, if a bureaucrat leaves, is demoted or is removed without time to have their predecessor chosen beforehand.
The first step of this process is that as soon as possible after, all administrators will be contacted about becoming a candidate for being the new bureaucrat, and will have 24 hours after receiving the message to declare their candidacy. If they do not become a candidate before the day is up, they will not be included in the vote.
After the day for becoming a candidate is over, a vote between all the candidates will be held on this Fandom, for this wiki's staff to vote in, as well as the representative.
If there is more than 2 candidates for bureaucrat at the beginning, there will be a series of voting rounds that will occur until only 2 candidates are left. The votes would last 24 hours for each round, where staff member's could vote for the candidate of their choosing. When the vote ends 1 day later, the candidate with the least amount of votes would be eliminated (0 votes would automatically disqualify a candidate), and this process would repeat until only 2 candidates are left.
If there is a tie in the bullet rounds that is important to the process, then the administrators will vote on whichever of the tied candidates they would rather have as bureaucrat after the bullet round is finalized, and whoever of the tied candidates has more votes, will lead over their tied opponent or opponents. The tie-breaker vote would last 24 hours. If there is a tie in this vote, then it will go down to the bureaucrats votes, and in the scenario where the bureaucrats votes tie, the Server Owner will break the tie.
When there are only 2 candidates left, a site-wide vote would be held on the first day of the next month, for this Fandom's users to vote in. The vote would last 7 days, and whichever admin receives the most votes at the end would become a bureaucrat.
If there is only one candidate for bureaucrat who is uncontested, they will automatically become a bureaucrat without a vote. If there are only 2 candidates, the final vote will take place without any other votes.
Administrators roles
Administrators are trusted users who are in charge of Administrating the wiki. Their main user rights are:
- Having access to edit wiki code.
- Blocking/unblocking users and their user IDs.
- Having the ability to promote users to Thread moderator.
Administrators also have all the user rights of content moderators and Thread moderators. In order to become an administrator, you must be a quality, active content moderator (who has had their rights for over 90 days) who uses their rights frequently and removes vandalism and things that don't meet this Wiki's standards. You also would need 1,020 edits. If you become an admin this way you are considered a Content Administrator.
You can also become an administrator being an active Thread moderator (who has had their rights for over 90 days) who also has over 120 posts, and has done an exceptional job as a Thread moderator. If you become an admin this way you are considered a Thread Administrator.
Content moderators roles
Content moderators are trusted to remove any profanity, spam, or anything else harmful towards this Wiki, and are trusted to delete pages that don't follow this Fandom's Rules. Their main user rights are:
- Editing fully protected pages.
- Deleting or undeleting pages or files.
- Editing protected files.
- Renaming files.
- Protecting/unprotecting pages.
Content moderators also have the rights of rollbacks and some of the Thread Moderator rights. In order to become a content moderator, you must be one of the best active rollbacks (who has been one for over 60 days) for the role who spots out and reverts vandalism as well as enforcing the rules, who also has over 240 edits.
Thread moderators roles
Thread moderators are users who monitor the discussion Threads to make sure the rules are being followed. Here are some of their main user rights are:
- Removing/restoring messages on message walls.
- Deleting blog posts.
- Editing and deleting article comments.
- Deleting, restoring, and locking discussions posts and replies.
- Locking page comment sections.
In order to become a Thread moderator, you must be an active contributor to the discussions board, or in the comments of an article. Another qualification for becoming a Thread Moderator is that you must have been on the wiki for 60 days and have 120 posts, as well as behaving appropriately in the discussion Threads (example: following the rules, not arguing or being aggressive towards other users, reporting posts that are against our rules). You also must not have a warning given to you by a staff member from the last 60 days.
Rollbacks roles
Rollbacks can undo edits in one click. Regularly, undoing an edit will take multiple clicks. But with rollback, it will automatically undo recent edited user's edit in one button.
In order to become a rollback, you must be an active contributor with over 480 edits, who also has been on on the wiki for over 30 days and also help fight against vandalism, as well as having useful contributions. You also need to go 1 year without being blocked in order to become a rollback, though if you have been blocked 1 time or more, than you are permanently ineligible; this also applies to any other staff positions. You also have to go 60 days without getting a warning from a staff member.
Content and Thread Administrators/Bureaucrats
The difference between the status of being a Thread administrator and a Content administrator is usually, if the admin was promoted to admin from being a content moderator, they would be considered a Content administrator as they were promoted from a content role, and if they were promoted from being a Thread moderator, they would be considered a Thread administrator as they were promoted from a discussions role. If a user had both Thread and content moderator rights, they would be considered both a Content and Thread administrator. Whichever status a bureaucrat had as admin when they were promoted would be the same, except it would be for bureaucrats, Which are a Content and Thread bureaucrat.
The different status help determine their staff page activity status, as well as their demotion rules. With the staff page activity status. However, if an admin wants to they can switch their status roles around, they are able to do so, but they must have over 480 posts or edits in that category, depending on which one they would like to be a part of. If an administrator goes 60 days without editing and has the content role they will lose it, and if an admin goes 60 days without posting with the discussions role they will lose their discussions status.

Until the vote is complete the retiring Bureaucrat will stay bureaucrat until the vote is complete so they can promote the chosen administrator to Bureaucrat then they may relieve themselves of the Bureaucrat permission.
Bureaucrat Demotion Process
If all staff members vote on and agree that one of the current bureaucrats must be demoted, from there it is the bureaucrats duty to follow the rules of the staff page and initiate the Bureaucrat Promotion Process.
