Administrators, commonly known as admins or sysops (system operators), are wiki editors who have been trusted with access to restricted technical features on the Blue Archive Wiki.
Administrators assume these responsibilities as volunteers; they are not acting as employees of Wikia. There are currently 4 administrators.
Abilities[]
Administrator Abilities[]
These additional functions include:
- Deleting and undeleting pages, page histories, and uploaded files.
- Locking (protecting) a page so it cannot be edited or renamed by users without admin rights or autoconfirmed status.
- Blocking IP addresses or user names from editing; and very quick "rollback" of undesirable edits.
- Editing the interface by changing system messages and skins.
Bureaucrat Abilities[]
A bureaucrat can make other users into bureaucrats or administrators on their own wiki. Bureaucrats can also give users the ability to "rollback" edits not made in good faith.
Staff[]
Wikia staff members have full access to all Wikia. They will be shown in Special:Listusers/staff on any wiki. Please use Special:Contact to contact Wikia staff.
Who are this wiki's administrators?[]
The "founder" of a wiki, the person who first requested it, is given administrator access automatically. Founders are also given bureaucrat access so they can make any other user on their wiki an administrator or bureaucrat. For a complete list of users with administrator access, see Special:Listusers/sysop.

How do I use administrator powers?[]
See Help:Administrators' how-to guide for a guide on using admin functions.
What can administrators not do?[]
Administrators should not use their administrator powers to settle editing disputes; for example, to lock a page on a version he or she prefers in an editing dispute that isn't vandalism. Administrator powers should be used to help keep the wiki clear of vandalism, spam, and users who make malicious edits, but not for simple disagreements between users acting in good faith. Ideally an admin shouldn't be considered "in charge". The ideal admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wikia community.
Moderators[]
Moderators are users who have additional tools available to manage thread conversations in the Forum and Message Wall features. These tools are:
Removing and restoring threads and replies from any user. Closing and reopening threads. In the Forum feature specifically, moderators also have the ability to manage Forum boards, move threads from one board to another, and highlight and un-highlight threads. Having this status causes "MODERATOR" to appear next to the username on the user's userpage.
