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. ▼
▲=== OpenClosed requests ===
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)

▲====[[User: ExampleGvaudoin| ExampleGvaudoin]] ====
▲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.
::I'm very thankful for this nomination and I'll '''accept it'''. If I become a Content Moderator, I promise to use the tools given to further improve the wiki. - [[User:SimDestroyer|SimDestroyer]] ([[User talk:SimDestroyer|talk]]) 07:22, February 22, 2018 (UTC)
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.

:Thank you for nominating me as a potential content moderator! I'd like to accept the nomination.
'''Strong support''' - I agree with everything that LostInRiverview said. SimDestroyer has only been here since June 2017 and has almost 2,700 constructive edits. I think he'd be a positive addition. - [[User:KailynnKat| <span style="color:#910b0b; font-variant:small-caps; text-shadow: Silver 0 4px 4px;"> '''KailynnKat'''</span>]][[User_talk:KailynnKat|<span style="color:#910b0b; text-shadow: Silver 0 4px 4px; font-size:11px">''(talk''</span>]][[:Category:Fanon created and owned by KailynnKat|<span style="color:#910b0b; text-shadow: Silver 0 4px 4px; font-size:11px">''/fanon)''</span>]] 23:47, February 22, 2018 (UTC)
:I try my best to improve the Wiki by adding new pages, expanding on the existing content and reverting vandalism wherever I see it. If the nomination is successful I'll continue to do so and use the new tools for the good of the Wiki. —<span style="font-family:'Georgia'; font-weight:bold;">[[User:Gvaudoin|<font color="black">Gvaudoin</font>]]</span> [[User talk:Gvaudoin|💬]] 12:15, April 18, 2020 (UTC)
'''Support''' SimDestroyer is one of those users that astound me. Although he's been here for less than a year, SimDestroyer has proven themselves to be at the very least a mature and level-headed editor who is prolific at what they do. They are excellent at content creation and despite their relatively short tenure, they have more than adequately demonstrated that they are trustworthy enough to have the content moderator tools. I am sure that they will be able to put such tools to good use. —[[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>]]) 01:17, February 23, 2018 (UTC)

{{Support}} - I have seen observing Gvaudoin's contributions over the past couple of years, and I have seen little to no reason to believe that she wouldn't be suitable for this role.

:{{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.

Requests for chat moderatorship for the now-defunct [[Project:Chat|on-wiki chat]] feature used to also be handled on this page. Archived chat moderator requests can be seen [[/Chat moderatorship archive 1|here]].
'''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)

;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)
