Requests for '''Chat moderator''' and '''content moderator''' [[The Sims Wiki:User rights|user rights]] are handled through this page. Moderator rights requests are almost always open on {{SITENAME}}.
==Requests for Chatcontent moderatorship==
{{Archive navigation|[[/Chat moderatorship archive 1|1]]}} ▼If you feel that you are a valuable member of [[The Sims Wiki:Chat|Chat]] and you think you would benefit from the Chat moderator rights, this is where to apply. The minimum requirements are:
*Be an active user of Chat (on chat every day, or nearly every day) for at least four months.
*Having a fair knowledge on how Chat works and the rules of using Chat.
*A good record of civil behavior - if you have been told off for messing around or are constantly bringing up heart-touching (i.e sensitive topics) or inappropriate topics, then you are not ready for this.
*Having good English skills is a necessity as English is the only language allowed on main Chat.
**Spking liek dis meens ur not rdy 2 bcome Chat mod.
===Application procedure===
==== Stage 1: Nominating ====
*Users may nominate themselves or other users for Chat moderator rights.
*Multiple requests at one time are allowed.
*Moderator candidates that are not given any additional privileges are ineligible to be nominated or to nominate themselves for at least a month.
==== Stage 2: Discussion ====
*A period of discussion shall last at least three days. ▼:*If a request will clearly not achieve a favorable consensus (i.e. there is absolutely no support for promotion) - in other words, the request doesn't have a [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Snowball clause|"snowball's chance"]] of passage - it may be canceled early.
*After three days of discussion, it shall be determined whether a consensus is in favor of a user being given Chat Moderator rights. If there is a consensus, rights will be awarded. If there is clearly no consensus for a user to be promoted, the discussion is ended and rights will not be awarded.
*In cases where consensus is not clear after three days, discussion will continue for three additional days.
:*If, after this time, there is no clear consensus either in favor or not in favor of promotion, the request proceeds to Stage 3.
====Stage 3: Voting====
*A period of voting shall last five days.
*Votes for a nominee may only be ''support'' or ''oppose'' votes. Any neutral votes cast will not be included in an official vote count.
*A 2/3rds majority vote (of counted votes only) is required for a promotion nomination to pass this stage.
====Note====
Both administrators and bureaucrats may moderate discussions and votes, determine consensus, and award rights to successful nominees. Administrators and bureaucrats may participate in discussions and vote, but must be impartial when moderating, determining consensus, and awarding rights.
=== What you will do as a Chat moderator ===
*Protect Chat from disruptive behavior by warning, kicking and/or banning disruptive individuals.
*Maintain an active presence in Chat so that it's more easily moderated; it's not worth having these rights if you're hardly ever in Chat.
=== What you may not do as a Chat moderator ===
*Use your operator privileges to take advantage of users or to control the Chat.
*Ignore the needs and wants of Chat users.
*Abuse rights by using them incorrectly, for personal reasons or against non-disruptive users.

====[[User:SimDestroyer|SimDestroyer]]====
I, {{Talklinks|LostInRiverview}} would like to nominate {{Userlinks|SimDestroyer}} for content moderator rights on The Sims Wiki. ▼
Over the past several months, SimDestroyer has shown himself to be a very prolific and high-quality editor in the main namespace. Additionally, he hasn't shied away from editing files, templates, or categories, and he has even created several new templates and categories. Additionally, he has participated in a few wiki discussions on a variety of topics. He has a few page undos/reverts under his belt as well, so he isn't afraid to address vandalism or potentially incorrect or misleading information in articles either. Overall, I think that SimDestroyer is a very competent editor and would be a good fit for the content moderator role. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<span style="color:navy;">LostInRiverview</span>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 02:46, February 22, 2018 (UTC)

▲I, {{Talklinks|LostInRiverview }}, would like to nominate {{Userlinks| SimDestroyerGvaudoin}} for contentthe role of moderatorContent rightsModerator on The Sims Wiki.
Gvaudoin has been an active or semi-active member of The Sims Wiki since the tail-end of 2017, and has shown herself to be a highly competent wiki editor in that time. She seems like someone who is genuinely interested not only in improving and expanding the content of the encyclopedia, but in engaging positively and helpfully with other members of the community.
====[[User:KailynnKat|KailynnKat]]====
I, [[User:LostInRiverview|LostInRiverview]], would like to nominate {{userlinks|KailynnKat}} (formerly known as "Karu Katerchen") for Content Moderator rights on The Sims Wiki.
Gvaudoin is not currently a rollbacker, and I did consider nominating her for that position instead. (For the record, rollback is not listed as a prerequisite for obtaining the Content Mod role) But, I feel that she could get more use out of the expanded toolset of the Content Mod role than she could simply from the rollback tool, and I feel that the wiki could use another experienced hand in the Content Mod position. I have no doubt that she would be well-equipped to effectively utilize these additional tools if she is ultimately promoted.
KailynnKat has been a long-time contributor to The Sims Wiki and has shown strong editing skills. I believe she would benefit substantially from having Content Moderator tools, and the wiki as a whole would benefit from her knowledge and experience in that role. KailynnKat also has a proven history of anti-vandalism actions, and has participated in several on-wiki discussions as well. Ultimately, The Sims Wiki will benefit from her leadership and skill level in this position. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<span style="color:navy;">LostInRiverview</span>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 05:05, February 9, 2018 (UTC) ▼

:{{Support}} - I have nothing but respect for the work Gvaudoin has done for the wiki. Whether it comes to uploading necessary media or creating articles on TS4 gallery Sims, Gvaudoin often does the work that is so essential to the wiki. I wholeheartedly support this nomination.

::{{Support}} - From a quick look at Gvaudoin's contributions, it's clear that she has a good understanding of the game and the workings of the wiki. I think it would be beneficial for both her and the wiki if she had access to the rights, and has my trust and support. ~ [[User:Beds|<font color="purple">'''Beds'''</font>]] <sup>([[User_talk:Beds|<font color="#66CDAA">'''talk'''</font>]] - [[User_blog:Beds|<font color="#66CDAA">'''blog'''</font>]])</sup> 22:36, April 30, 2020 (UTC)
'''Support''' I have known KailynnKat to be a level-headed and mature user in addition to being prolific with content creation and a definite net positive to the wiki. With the new content moderator role being geared towards users who are more focused towards the content creation aspect of wiki editing and not the behind-the-scenes administrative tasks, KailynnKat is more than qualified for the content mod role. —[[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] <span title="Canadian!" style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF">Talk</span>]] · [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F">Contributions</span>]]) 22:09, February 12, 2018 (UTC)
'''Support''' KailynnKat has made a lot of great edits to the wiki and a Content Moderator status would make future edits even better. - [[User:SimDestroyer|SimDestroyer]] ([[User talk:SimDestroyer|talk]]) 18:39, February 18, 2018 (UTC)

'''Resolution'''
;Conclusion
A week's time having passed, and seeing full support for promotion, I must conclude that the promotion of KailynnKat to content moderator has been '''approved.''' -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<span style="color:navy;">LostInRiverview</span>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 01:03, February 19, 2018 (UTC)
