Archives:Staff: Difference between revisions

'''Archives staff''' are users who have been granted administrative powers by the [[Archives:Advisory Council|Archives Advisory Council]]. They have more editing functions at their disposal than regular users, and are responsible for watching over the Bulbagarden Archives and settling any disputes. Many of them are also administrators on {{bp|Bulbapedia:Staff|Bulbapedia}} or {{bn|Bulbanews:Administrators|Bulbanews}}.

There are four levels of administrator powers.

 

 

==Junior administrators==

The junior administrator group is the most basic staff group. These users have the ability to move files, among other trivial privileges.

 

Some users may be granted temporary access to the junior administrator tools; the following seven users are not temporary.

Full administrators have the ability to protect files, change protected files, delete files, and move files. They have the ability to "suppress" a redirect when a file is moved. They may also block troublesome users.

 

There are currently four administrators.
