Camp Half-Blood Role Playing Wiki:Requesting User Rights

This is the page where users can request user rights. If you feel you deserve user rights, and it will benefit the wiki, then you may place a request below. Please read the instructions carefully before requesting user rights.

Chat Mod Rights

 * You should be a trusted member of the community.
 * You should have a strong history on this wiki. We don't accept people who have only edited a few times.
 * You must be a level five user.
 * You should have no history of vandalism, sock-puppetry, or rudeness.
 * Your Duties will be to maintain chat rules and policy. As you are not a rollback, you may not approve claims or vote on things meant for rbs+. However, the 1 month auto demotion still applies.

Rollback Rights

 * You should have a strong history on this wiki. We don't accept people who have only edited a few times.
 * You must be a level five user.
 * You should have no history of vandalism, sock-puppetry, or rudeness.
 * Upon running for Rollback, you must pick a department ahead of time, that has an opening and get permission from the Bcrat to join that department: Claiming Department, Human Resources, Research & Development, Support Services. Once you run, if you are successful, depending on which department you are in, you will perform the duties necessary in that department, and assist the Bcrat leading that department.

Administrator Rights

Once you run, if you are successful, depending on which department you are in, you will perform the duties necessary in that department, and assist the Bcrat leading that department. In a case of a bcrat going on vacation, you may be asked to cover running that department while they are gone.

Bureaucrat Rights

 * You must have administrator rights.
 * You should be a trusted member of the community.
 * You should have no history of vandalism, sock-puppetry, or rudeness.
 * The only way a bcrat spot will ever open up, is if one of the current 3 bcrats leaves, steps down or is demoted.

Nomination

 * 1) Choose to edit a section under "Requests" (either chat moderator, rollback, administrator, or bureaucrat).
 * 2) Add your name as a subheading like this: ===Your User Name===.
 * 3) Give a small statement of why you think you deserve the rights.

Voting
Users will then state whether the user deserves the rights or not. They will either agree, or disagree with the request. Only Rollbacks and up may vote on user rights.

Requests
Requests may be turned down simply because users with the rights are not needed. If your request is turned down, you can try again later when you have a stronger history, or when someone with the rights is needed.

Claiming Department
This department is primarily responsible for checking any and all claims: Camp claims, BC claims, Pet claims, and Quest or Mission claims. Members of this department are tasked with keeping claim pages up to date and organised. Helping users make claims and get started, as well as adding new users and/or characters to the Users & Characters Lists are some examples of the responsibilities that fall to the Claiming Department.

Human Resources
The Human Resources Department (HR) keeps the Users & Characters Lists up to date, as well as keep track of pages with issues and upkeep work such as categories, images, and organisation. Members of this department are also tasked with making sure that users level up the right way, as well as contacting users about their inactivity.

Research and Development
The Research and Development Department (R&D) is for the users who want to come up with ideas, plans, new projects, things to test, basically stuff that will keep the wiki moving forward. Members or this dept actively poll the wiki and talk to the users about what their needs and wishes are. This department is for users who want to help design things like templates or the main page; basically keeping the wiki looking nice. This is a good department for users who are either strong leaders or able to inspire users to get excited about things. They should also be proactive about getting work done. People in this department need to be able to get stuff done without being told or asked. They’d also be in charge of monitoring the ideas/suggestions board/forum.

Aid & Support Services
The Aid & Support Services Department (A&S) functions like the previous General Support. Members of this dept are tasked with helping users with anything they need such as guidance or direction. A&S also monitors the help and debate forums, as well as lend a hand to other departments that are low on help or have extra work.

Hello! I've come to request to run as Rollback for the Claiming Department. I'm around every day, and I think myself to be very active. I have no problem reading long histories and such as I enjoy reading characters' backstories (yes, I lurk on new claims). When I do take the time to read over my own claims, I can easily pinpoint what I need to change and some of the overzealous points of my claims, but to be honest I rarely do so due to my just general nature. I'm not afraid to point out that we only have two active claimers if I can remember correctly, who happen to be Summer June and Meloney. On another point, I actively have a lot of free time (and no social life) so I'll be able to get to claims quickly.

I really hope I will be able to join the Claiming Department and help get characters through the Claiming process so they can be created and roleplayed. If I am accepted as a Rollback, I promise that I will at least try to get to claims whenever I can, even if my life takes a spin for the worst. Thank you for your consideration.

Yay (+2)

 * 1) Hells to the yes

It's amazing that you have the ambition and initiative and props for that! C: But at the end of the day, the fact that you don't have a history of doing department related work isn't something that can be ignored especially when we're talking about rollback rights. User rights are something that require the basis of a strong history of contributing to the wiki beyond personal edits. I have noticed that you've worked on adding month categories to character pages starting yesterday and that's great! However, your basis for becoming a rollback isn't something that you can create overnight and it's something that needs to be worked on over a longer period of time. If you're aiming to be apart of the Claiming department, claims would be the most essential skill and task since character page categorization would fall under the Human Resources department's scope

Now believe me when I say that I'm not doubting what you claimed above, but there is a difference between saying that you are capable of doing something and "showing" that you are capable of doing something. There are scenarios where someone may think they are well suited for something, but it turns out to be the opposite when they give it a try, so you'd never know unless you try. For the claim department, I'd recommend that you take the first step and become a helper to get accustomed to the various claim rules and start working on claim checking. Unfortunately at this time, I'm not truly convinced based on what I can see to vote "for" your vote, but keep on working hard, fighting!

Hey, guys... So I've decided to run for admin of Aid and Support. I realize that I haven't been too busy these past few weeks, but personal life reasons (plus no wifi really) led me to that. Now that things are settling down, I can finally get back to my usual steady editing.

Reasons for voting yes:


 * 95% of the time I know what I'm doing
 * I try to talk to my superiors and peers about what to do on situations I don't understand
 * During the past months, I've grown more mature
 * Users often come to me with problems that only admins can deal with and to better help the wiki, it would be easier to help them if I was admin instead of pointing to someone inactive.
 * I know my way around code, and I understand how the wiki works and how it is put together
 * It is easier for me to keep the wiki organized because I can
 * Archive characters faster
 * delete/undelete pages

I honestly feel as if I am ready for this. If I am voted as an admin, I will still continue to talk to my fellow peers and superiors. I will still continue to act on the behalf of the wiki and I will still continue to serve the people of this wiki.

Think on it for awhile

Talking
Nat's already shown that she can handle administrative responsibilities, and I trust her to run the A&S Department :)
