User:MarioMario456/sandbox/Administrator's guide

This is a guide for new administrators to Qualitipedia. Maybe you're reading this because you just got promoted or you're considering an admin request on the "request for permissions" page on one or more of our wikis.

Your goal as an administrator is to keep the community happy, not to enforce your personal opinions or to use Qualitipedia as a battleground. Remember to assume good faith and to only do massive changes after community consensus. By being an administrator, you agree to actually use your permissions and not have them for hat collecting.

Blocking users
Remember to assume good faith and to use the "warning" template. Blocking users should only be used as a final solution. For most blocks, users should be allowed to appeal on their talk page. Vandalism-only accounts, spambots, trolls or obvious sockpuppets should obtain an indefinite block without talk page access.

Deleting pages
The only pages subject to speedy deletion (immediate deletion without consensus) are listed here. Other page deletions should be done per community consensus, with the page's potential deletion being discussed on its talk page.
