The Sim Wiki is currently in need of more admins. If you have proven yourself to be a valuable member of the community, and you think you're capable of doing the job, this is where to apply. Minimum requirements are:

  • Average or higher wiki editing knowledge.
This means you have to have contributed regularly to some wiki (not necessarily this one).
  • Having started to contribute on The Sim Wiki (edits in the content namespace are not taken too seriously).
  • Your first edit on The Sim Wiki should not be your application on this page.
  • Understandable, (almost 100%) correct English all the time.
  • Playing the game is nice, since you'll be editing and making decisions based on the game's content.
  • Be able to expand articles to make them more useful for the community.
  • You should not copy articles from Wikipedia and paste them here.

What you will do as an admin

  • Revert vandalism, warn and/or block vandals.
  • Move pages to correct page names, delete unnecessary redirects.
  • Have a strong voice when decisions have to be taken.
  • This is a "young" wiki with few established rules.
  • Have the final say in most arguments (unless one of your equals or superiors disagree).
More info and a list of current admins can be found at Administrators

I would like to request an adminship even though I may be somewhat of a hater. I have been "nice" to other. PLEAZE!! User:Joethatblackguy

Your adminship application has been rejected for the following reasons: No user name, an admin most be recognizable to other users, and you have also been disruptive and abusive to members of the community. --a_morris (talk) 21:04, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

  • I have occupied wikia for one year, I have rollback rights on the Halo wikia, I often contribute to the Star Wars Fanon wikia and I have also founded this piece of rubbish :P
  • I have made a lot of corrections to this wikis' pages, mainly on the Sims' pages, but I generally like to edit a lot. I also removed the user created contest pages from the mainspace and created a page-to-page non-mainspace space for them.
  • As for antivandalism, when I come here I first check my watchlist (I have emails sent to me) to see what changes have been done while I have been away and I always correct the slightest mistake in HTML formatting I find.
  • I have never utilized leet speech, even when I am with my friends in private. That says it all.
  • I have to admit that sometimes I am a little offensive, though I have been working on this and if I am flagged I will give that a boost.
  • I play the Sims 2 and I own every expansion pack and every stuff pack but the two newest.
  • I visit the forums daily, though you may not believe me as I never speak there :D I can also use the irc if needed.

I'm new here, but not new to wikis in general, and I know what the role of the admin is. So, I await for your decisio0n. - JEA13 [iTalk] 12:22, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Granted adminship. --a_morris (talk) 23:18, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
