Applications for adminship (RfA or AfA) is the process by which the Scout Wiki community decides who will become administrators (also known as admins or sysops), who are users with access to additional technical features that aid in maintenance. A user either submits his/her own request for adminship (a self-nomination) or is nominated by another user. Please be familiar with the administrators' reading list and how-to guide, before submitting your request.

Adding a new request

To create a new RfA nomination (both self nominations and user nominations), please copy the code below and paste it under the Current nominations for adminship section below:

{{subst:RfA|username|''end date''|statement}}

You need to replace the username parameter with the username of the candidate, and the end date parameter with the ending date of voting, which is 14 days from when the candidate accepts the nomination, or when the discussion has taken place: whichever is the later.

Please read ScoutWiki:Adminship before nominating a user or yourself for Adminship to make sure you know what an Administrator does.

Candidates should consider admin tools as a way to help the project, and not as power.

Also please note that an outcome cannot be determined from the off wiki discussion alone, as it is based on the number of votes recieved here. The discussion should be summarised after it has taken place for the benefit of users who cannot access IRC/Forum etc.

Judging nominations

Most of the discussion relating to the RfA will take place on either the IRC Channel, the Forum, or the Mailing Lists, and it is up to the candidate to state where they would like the discussion to be held.

Nominations should be judged on actual edits, the user's plans for the wiki, trustworthiness and also whether or not they are an admin on another wiki, and whether or not they have used the tools responsibly there.

About RfA

Please see ScoutWiki:Adminship for information about adminship and the RfA process.
