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.
