Administrators (or sysops) are users who are active, trustworthy, and continually publish constructive edits.
The MediaWiki software has a few important features that are restricted to administrators. Compared to regular users, administrators have the ability to:
- Block a user or IP address from editing.
- Change wiki prefixes in Special:Interwiki.
- Create and (de)activate tags.
- Delete and undelete pages, images, or files.
- Delete and undelete specific revisions of pages.
- Edit in the MediaWiki namespace.
- Import pages from other wikis.
- Mark edits as patrolled.
- Protect a page so it cannot be edited or moved by users without admin rights.
- Rollback disruptive/unconstructive edits.
- For a list of all administrators, including inactive ones, see Special:ListAdmins.
- For a quick overview of the different types of user rights, see Help:Group rights.
