Administrators, also known as sysops, are users trusted with extra maintenance tools. All administrators are voted into that position by the community, and help keep the wiki a safe, informative and fun place to be. Administrators are all just normal users, but with access to a few extra tools that allow them to keep the wiki a nice place. For easy recognition, administrators have their usernames in a light blue color in the recent changes and article history.
Administrator's abilities
Administrators have access to some different abilities than other users, including:
- No rate limits on account creation, moving pages or uploading files.
- The ability to delete or restore a page.
- The ability to delete, edit or toggle an article comment.
- The ability to protect a page so that only certain users can edit it, and permission to edit any protected page.
- The ability to restrict user group access to certain features for a limited amount of time.
- Permission to edit the site interface, such as the sidebar and sitenotice, or the site skin.
- Block a user from editing the FrontierVille Wiki.
- The ability to move files.
- View deleted pages.
Administrators are not:
- Better than other users.
- Owners of the wiki.
- Administrators do not have more of a say in wiki matters than a user without administrator rights.

How do I become an administrator?
Administrators must be very active and dedicated users, who would benefit from the extra tools. If you think that you are the right choice for adminship, please read FrontierVille Wiki:Requests for Adminship, and file an RfA. If your RfA passes, then your account will have administrator rights added to it by a bureaucrat.
