What are the rules of being staff?[]
If you are part of the staff, you can get a TREMENDOUS amount of power! You must be responsible for your power as staff. That is why the Cat's Cafe wiki has made a few rules to balance everything out.
1. No abusing your power. That means no blocking people for the fun of it, or reverting perfectly fine edits.
2. Follow the rules. Follow the staff rules AND the regular rules. You can read them at this link.
3. Do not block people unless you have solid evidence on what they've done. You never know when someone is trying to frame another user. Some evidence may be...
- Screenshots from other user's profiles
- Seeing what happened yourself
- Multiple users saying what happened (if there are at least 2 other people saying what happened isn't true, you should dig deeper)
- In addition, blocks should always have a valid reason. Record it when you block people, please!
4. Please follow the protection rules below: We don't want vandals. Protecting helps prevent vandals from vandalizing!
- Rules, Regulation Pages, and main community pages: Protect to "Only allow administrators"
- Main Characters: Only Allow Autoconfimred Users
- Comic Strips: No protection. Anyone with an account may edit.
- All location pages: Autoconfirmed Users only
- Story Arcs: No protection. Anyone with an account (remember that) may edit
- Important Templates: Admins only
5. Candidates for Deletion Rules
- Candidates for Deletion can only be put on pages that are
- Copies of other pages
- Don't Work
- or have Vandalism (Minor pages only, Major Pages will get a makeover)
- Candidates for deletion must use the "Candidate For Deletion" Template
- The page will have 2 weeks to be changed before it will be closed off to only Administrators
- At the end of the month the candidates for deletion will be deleted
- (If the page has been closed to admins already, if it hasn't then it will be deleted the next month)
- Candidates for Deletion can only be put on pages that are
6. Stay active: If you haven't edited or posted at least 6 times in 45 days, you will be demoted one rank down. The cycle will repeat, however, you may regain your privleges as wiki staff upon asking and being more active.
